Maclay roplled to tho criticism which has been made on his historical works dealing with Admiral Schley and the navy during the Spanish war. He said In part: "I did not appreclato at tho' tlmo I wrote tho book that the terms woro Immoderate and In temperate. It is only recently that It has met with adverse criticism. It ls now my Intention to revise, that portion ot tho work that deals with the battlo ot San tlago. But I shall not alter tho facts, for they are correct, and I must first be as sured that they aro in error. Tho proofs wero submitted to tho officers who took part In tho bnttlo of Santiago as well as to Secretary Long and received tholr ap proval. I should explain that only those portions of the book wero submitted to each officer that related to htm personally or to the part he took In the battle. Tho proofs submitted to Mr. Long dealt with that part of tho war that they concerned. I have no animus against Admiral Schley."
