Lemly, Judge Advocate of Schley Court of Inquiry. Ins llnd More to tin with the Prose cution of Nnvnl l.n w Cnsr Than Any Other Ollicer In (he ftrrvlep. Cnpt. Lemly Is particularly well fitted for t lie? exneting; duties of judfje ndvocnte. lie Is now svrvlnjf , bis third term ns Judge ndvocnte i getieral. Be is u civil ns well ns u nutrititiip lawyer. So far n9 known he lias never expressed un opinion ns to the merits of eft her liear Admiral Sampson or Bear Admiral Schley. He served with Schley iu the Essex on the South Atlantic station, nnd was n. watch officer on board the Thetis, commanded by ('apt. Schley, which, with the Benr, formed the tirecly relief expedit ion. dipt. Lemly says he would feel hurt to have it intimated that he has any personal feeling1 whatever in the controversy. In all the time he has been at the hcud of the legal depart ment of the nuvy, his service datlntf back to l.HO'i.hoha.s, fortunately, never had. occasion to puss upon nny fiies tion that involved cither Sampson or Schley in any personal aspect. He has known both Schley better than Sampson, perhaps. He was one of Schley's personal friends when he (Lemly) was in active line service. Indeed, he accompanied Schley on the famous Greely relief expedition, and lie rendered vtiltuible service to Schley on that occasion, which the senior ollicer recognized. On the other hand, dipt. Lemly has known Snmpson officially in the ntivy de partment when the admiral was at the head of tho ordnance bureau, and they were thus thrown into close contact in a business point of view at least for several years. Capt. Lemly had already arranged to depart from Washington on his annual leave on a trip through Cana da some tim in August. He will nr rnnge to leave on a later date now, In order to bo able to study up thia CAPT. 8AMUEL C. LEMLY. (Judge Advocate of the Sampson-Schley Court of Inquiry.) celebrated case before the court meets September 12. Meanwhile the clerical force of the judge advocate's department can prepare the mass of documentary evidence necessary for use before the points muy be gathered ready for the opening. It should be noted that un der the ordinary rules of practice the judge advocate general of the navy is called upon to review the proceed ings of court-martials and courts of inquiry. Secretary Long has prom ised Cnpt. Lemly that he will be ex empted from the duty of reviewing the proceedings of the Schley court. Cnpt. Lemly has probably had more experience in the prosecution of niivnl law cases than any other of ficer in the nnvy, and in generally re garded as one of the best, equipped officers iu the navy for the important duties which will devolve upon him as judge advocate of the court se lected to pass upon controversial points resulting from tho conduct of the naval campaign in the West. In dies. Prior to his assumption of his du ties ns judge advocate general of the navy, in June, 18.02, he was prom inently identified with several of the most important trials nnd investiga tions iu the recent annals the navy. As judge advocate and record er of various courts he traversed nearly all points of the world visited by I'nited States warships, going as far as China and Japan in the prose cution of such work. lie was judge udvocnte of the court martial convened in Cliinii as a re sult of the loss of the I'nited States steamship Ashuelot, and was ulso judge advocate in the court-martial ense of Paymaster Wntkins, which sat at Yokohama. Ho was also judge ndvocnte in the court-mnrtiiil cases appointed for t lie trial of ex-Surgeon General Wales and ex-Paymaster General Smith. Probably his most Important work of this kind, how ever, was as judge advocate of the court of inquiry which investigated the loss of the Jeannette in the Arc tic. That investigation was con ducted in Washington and wui niaVked by almost as much aorlmony nnd controversy as tho pending Sampson-Schley case. Naval officers in speaking of the fairness of Secretary Long in select ing tho court of inquiry point to the fact that Admiral Kimberly was Schley's commander back in the 70'b, Snffruilo I.ntva In llelalnm.
