SCllY3 SON IN DEFENSE
Admit lt El Jest Outlines Points for
Court of Inquiry
Salt Lake July 2 Captujn Thomas
F Schley eldest hon of Admiral
Schley who Ib stationed nt Fort Doug
las in this city yesterday outlined
some points Hint will be brought out In
tho court of inquiry aa to bis fatherb
conduct at the battle of Santiago He
declares that some Startling faetB will
be bi ought to light If the whole truth
shall become known nnd that the i equi
tations of persons other than his fattier
are likely to suffer
I have just written to my father
said Captain Schley that I thoflght he
ought to spare nobody and that ho
should withhold none of the factB In
his possession about Admiral Sampson
or anybody else
When tho court of Inquiry meets
said Captain Schley I would like to
have the privilege ofj asking Admiral
Sampson just one question If tho
battle of Santiago had resulted In de
feat to whom would the blame have
been attached Thin I think tells
the situation in a nutshell If Ad
miral Schley had lost the3 battle ho
would have been blamed He won
it and he should have tho credit
The accusations that aro made aro
ridiculous when they nre investigated
Take for oxamplo the charge of dis
obedience of orders in May 1808 An
attempt lias been made to saddle tho
responsibility on my futher Tho
fact Ib that ho has a letter from Ad
mlral Sampson telling him to do ex
actly what ho did and thiB letter will
bo produced nt the inquiry At that
timo he was maintaining the blockade
off CienfuegoB Secretary Long
wired Admiral SampBon strongly ad
vising thnt tho blockading fleet go to
Santiago In the hopp of finding the
Spanish fleet thoro
Admiral Sampson sent tho dis
patch to Admiral Schley with a note
in which ho Bald After duly con
sidering this tolegram I have decided
to mnko no change In tho present
plans thnt Is thnt you should hold
your squadron off Cienfuegos
This letter was suppressed
If this inquiry is full nnd fnlr
declared Captain Schley somo facts
will bo disclosed that will startle tho
public My father haB strong cards
up IiIb sleeve and I trust ho will make
ubo of them nil
