THE PHTSBUB6 DBPATOH. TTESDAT NOVEMBER 1Q 189L GOSSIPS ON A GRIN Oyerthe Finding in the Wrecked Despatch Investigation. MORE THAN HINTS OF WHITEWASH Naval Officials Accused of Such Personal , fartiality That a VERDICT OF ACQUITTAL WAS. CERTAIN trom x sTrr conr.Esrovi)E"T.l Washington, Nov. 9. If Secretary Tracy could hear the gosip not only in naval but in arniy, official aud private cii! circles ancnt the finding of th Hoard of Inquiry and his approval of it in regard to the loss of the United States steamer, Despatch, his ears would tingle as they have not before for many moons. The approval came late Saturday, and vesterday being Lord's Day except at the navy yards, little could be learned of the public senti ment which come to-day with an avalanche. That the conventional railroad disaster verdict of "nobody to blame" should be found by a Board of Inquiry and approved by the Secretarj of the Navy, alter hearing and reading the evidence given before the Hoard, is inexplicable on any other theory th.in that of personal friendship: and that valuable Government property may be rcck lcly thrown away w ithont blaming any body, becaiiic f personal friendship, is a scandal that certainly calls for a hearing be fore that court higher than boanlsof inquiry and cabinet officers, the court of the people through the public press. The Verdict That Wiw Anticipated. It is privately, f housh very confidently, asserted iu a region little removed from the Secretary's office and by naval officers of high rank and of cautious tongues that the boar! was appointed to acquit, and that he cause Lieutenant Conies was really a sort of master of what va Secretary Tracy's private yacht. The Secretary, while on board, sat with the Captain at the festal board, aid the wine and rich viands tint tickled his palate were gracefully dispensed by servants trained to pleasing manners un der the Captain's epicurean ej c As the court could not convict a subor dinate without casting a severe reflection on the commanding officer, the cxecuthe officer, Xoel, w ho changed his chiefs or dcr, and he and others who mistook Assa teague light for the light of winter quar ters -sho.il liglit, and so drove the vessel on the. beach at a speed of ninr milps an hour, are let oft" scott free. Rnt Lieutenant Cow les himself does not escape the severe criticism of naval officers, who, truth to fav, are none too eager to keelhaul a fellow salt when they themselves may soon he caught in a similar pickle. -A Had NlRhtrar Contllctlns Orders. From all the evidence before the board the weather was very dirty when Cowles gave his orders for the night and sauntered to his pretty cabin, performed his perfumed ablutions, clad his precious bodv in its silken night robe and tucked himself in the soft berth which a coddled naval officer knows how to secure, with all its oriental drapery and color, at public expense. Xot only was the weather dirty, but it promised to he '"a very de'ilot a night," as one of the w itnesses at the hearing said in a stage asidi. A good and worthy commanding seaman, it is asserted, would not have lazily and luxuriously4urned in under such circuni stanceN lie should have been on deck and on the bridce. He turned in, however, and bo fine was his discipline that his executive officer changed his orders given for the night, a mistake was made in lights, though the Asattague licht was white and the w 11, tcr quarters shoal light red, and the poor Despatch, perfectly lonely in he'r 4s soc'ations With Presidents and Cabinet' officers, "ladies of the best society," Amer ican sycophancy and foreign nobility, was run bang on the shore. Blame Only on the Light-Keeper. Nobody is to blame, says the board of inquiry, and Secretary Tracy attaches his affirmative hand and seall Lieutenant Cowles said it was a good night to see a light. Therefore the board of inquiry con cluded that the winter quarters shoal light ship light was out, or that it was tempo rarily so dim that it could not be seen. Admitting that to be true, say the critics of the. finding, if it was a good night to see a light, how did Lieutenant Noeland his men mistake the red light of Assateague for the white light of the winter quarters shoal lightship? Apparently the board and Sec retary Tracy did not care to go into the question of color. Once a similar board of inquiry sat upon Captain Dewey, then commanding the Shenandoah, and exonerated him when he ran her aground, because he and all his men vowed that a certain white light showed red on that night. The fault was attributed to some peculiar condition of the atmosphere. This was a new and startling proposition to students of the phenomena of color, but" this newer one, that a red lieht showed white, is yet more thrilling Tthan the other. tome Contradictory Testimony Taken. But there is testimony that the white light of the winter quarters shoal lightship was there all the time when the Despatch was within its radius of eight miles, the wick trimmed and the blaze at its brightest. The keeper of the ship says so, but as he maybe an interested party there is the testimony by telegram of the commanding officers of two coasting steamers, the Fair fax and the Delaware. The former passed the lightship just before the Despatch and the latter just after, and from both the light was seen with its brilliancy all unimpaired These abstruse questions of time and oolor were too deep for the board and Sec retary Tracy. They did not go into them. On account of this timidity about going into such deep water, the Despatch, lying owreck in very shallow water, is forever lost, and nobody is to blame except the poor light-house duffer, who is of no account anyway. These officials of cabinets and boards nf inquiry seem to forget that naval vessels are the peopled property, and that the peo ple have a right to know the cause that brings them to ruin in the heydey of their youth, and in this case with the loneliest of romances written on her timbers, from main deck to steerage.
