were of no value whatever. I would like to

.CAPTAIN CHADWICK MAKES REPORT. I

The Conversation, Says Hodgaon,
Took Place—The Denial \Vas That
of the “lords as Published.
Substance was Correct.

June 20. —The oc-
cu11'enccs 011 the bridge of the Brookl5n
during the battle of July 3 having been
the subject of a controversy in the new s-
papers, the nav y department recently 11n-
deI took an investigation of the various .11-
legations. Lieutenant COmmander Hodg-
son and Lieutenant Commander Heilner,
11' ho have figured in the c0ntr0wer,sy
were both called on f01 explanations of
the utterances attributed to them, and
the former was directed to report for ex-
amination on this point to Captain Chad-
wick a? Boston. The department has
11011 given out‘ for publication Captain
Chadwick’ s 1"ep01t on the matter. It is
not vet determined whether or not the
answer of Lieutenant Commander Heil~
nor will be made public at this time.
Captain Chadw’icUk s 1"ep01t is as follows:
. ..S S. New York.
BostOIUI, Mass, June 17,1899.

Sir—In obedience to your order of the
12th inst. I have to report the following
as the statement by Lieutenant Com-
mander'Hodgson of the conversation be
tween Rear Admiral Schley and himself
during the action of July 3, 1898.

He states as follows:

‘ IA FOX IN A 111.5.

Reynard Paid with His Life for m:

Attempt to Get a Feast of

Young Lamb?

1
Sheep do not often go fox-hunting,
but when the fox comes to them, events
may take the course they did on the
Benton farm at East Somerset; New
York. The owner of the farm brought
a large dead fox to tow-n, says the
\\ orld, and oifered to “treat” if anyone
could tell in 20 guesses how'the fox
had met his death. ' '

Of course, everybody gave it- 11p, and
then Mr. Denton reminded them that
he is a sheep-raiser, and has a large
flock of Dorsets, of which he is eSpe-
cially proud. With their large horns
these sheep make a formidable show—
ing, and they are so cross that it is
as much as a stranger’s life Is worth to
v enture across a field 1n which they are
pastured. Last summer a tramp was
overtaken by a Dorset, and would have
been killed but for Mr. Denton’s inter-
vention.

Ofllate a score Of lambs have been
born, and the bucks are more bellig-
erent than ever. One night Denton was
about retiring when he heard loud
bleatingi_ in the fold near the house,
and believing that dogs were around
and perhaps attacking the lambs, has-V
tened outdoors to investigate.

For a time the bucks refused to al-
low him to enter the fold, but pres-
ently they calmed down, and he went
in. There lay a fox, recently killed
and bleeding from numerous wounds.
A horn of one of the sheep had entered
reynard’s body back of the shoulder-
blade, and' then his life had been tram-
pled out. The fox’s hide showed more
than 40 holes made by the sharp hoofs
and horns.

to 1111-11 *9 Sti‘.1‘-b6ard,l suggested backing
the starboard engine in order to make a
smaller circle and give the Texas a wider
berth, but he decided against that as de-
creasing the speed of the turn. He did
not say. that I know of, ‘TVe are near

The only thing I gathered from what he
Said was that if we turned to port we
should get so close that we should expose
ourselves to torpedo attack.
he meant torpedo boats and replied to
him that I had not seen them.”

Lieutenant Commander ‘Hodgson states
that he did not intend to convey in his
note of denial sent at,the request of Ad-
miral Schley and published in the \Vash-
ington Post the idea that no such collo-
quy took place

He states regarding this as follows:

“Admiral Schley wrote me, inclosing an
editorial from a New York paper of June
JG. asking me to write a denial of what
he phrased ‘an 0ft repeated calumny.’
He said he had no recollection of any
such conversation. I wrote a lengthy
letter of explanation. giving my recollec-
tion of the conversation as nearly as pos-
sible. Admiral Schley wrote me, saying:
".l‘nere is much in your letter which I
should not like to use, as it would pro-
voke assault upon you. which I would
not like to happen. W'hat I want to
show is that the dialogue did not occur.’
I then wrote a denial of the colloquy, cer-
tainly not intending to say that no such
colloquy occur,17ed but thati It did not occui
as printed. I at the same time sent with
this a second explanatory lettei, explain-
in}: to Admiral Schley that the lettei of
denial 11' as a denial of the dialogue as it
appeared in print and that I had told the
coirespondent of the paper that the sub-
stance of the conversation was correct
In writing the letter I 11 ished to Iefute
the fact of any controv ersv existing at a
critical stage Of the battle. It— the letter
—11 as a denial of the words as thev stood
in the published article—.1 denial of their
literal correctness and not a denial of the
substantial correctness of the state-
ment.” ‘

A copy of the letter has not been re-
tained by him. He had a rough draft,
which has been mislaid.

pends his sign nature as a voucher for the

A New York 5211121711 the other day

' in a common piece of white paper.
Undoing it he showed what appeared to

 

be yellowish white pebbles about the
size of a large hickory nut, says the Sun
of that city.

,“A mere trifle,” he said, “but worth

The gnlogker was amazed and took it
in his hand. “You mean $100,” he sug-
gested.

are about 150 carats in it. At the rate

One of the young gentlemen who
have just been appointed in the regular
army was married only a few weeks
ago, and his bride takes a great deal
of interest in his uniform. He left his

. measure with a military tailor here the
other day, and the next afternoon when
she was out shopping she dropped in
to give some instructions as to the man-
nor in which it was to be trimmed, says
a Washmgtdn letter 1n the Chicago Rec.
ord.

She told the tailor she did not like the
culinary uniform of a second lieuten-
ant and desired to‘ have her husband’s
different. She wanted to have four
bands of gold braid around the sleeve,
like Admiral Schley has on his, and
_after critically examining all the shoul-
derstraps she instructed the tailor to
put on her husband’s coat a pair that
had silver birds embroidered on them,
because they were prettier than any of
the rest.

The tailor tried to advise her that the
regulations did not permit a second lieu-
tenant to wear the insignia, of an ad-
miral of the navy or those of a colonel
in the army, but she declared that if he
would not make that uniform the way
