CHIEFS OF THE FLEET OFF MEXICO Badger, Mayo, Fletcher, Beatty, Bousch and Howard Served Through the Strug gle of 1898—All Born in the Fifties When President Wilson ordered the ' entire naval force of the United States [ to the coast of Mexico twelve, flays ago j he brought to the fore six rear ad- i ml rain to direct Uncle Sam’s big guns j on the scene of action. This half doz en of naval officers is but little known [ to the people whom they served. The ! striking figures of the .Spanish Amcr ican war, Dewey, Evans, Sampson, Schley, find the rest, are either dead or retired Their places have been taken by younger men. who served through the struggle of 1898, but Irf humbler positions Who They Are. Rear Admiral Charles Johnston Badger, commanding Atlantic fleet. Rear Admiral Henry Thomas Mayo, commanding 4th division, Atlantic fleet. Rear Admiral Frank Friday Finch er commanding 3rd division, Atlantic Rear Admiral Frank Kdmund Beat tv, commanding Ist division, Atlantic fleet. Hear Admiral Clifford Joseph Roush, commanding 2nd division, Atlantic fleet. Rear Admiral Thomas Benton How ard, commanding in Pacific Coast. It Is a curious fact that all the 25 rear admirals of the navy were born in the Fifties. Indeed one can go farther and state that the eldest were born In 1852 and the youngest In 1856. This makes their ages range from about 58 to 62 years. Only one of the twenty five was born south of Virginia and none were born west of Wisconsin. Rear Admiral Charles J. Badger ran bis blue flag to the mast head of his flagship in place of the pennant ot Rear Admiral Hugo Osterhous at Hampton Roads January 4, 1913, and thereby assumed command of the Att lantic fleet. For 40 Years. He had then been almost forty years in the much varied, sometimes excit ting, but oft oner humdrum duties of a United States naval officer, lie was essentially a man of the sea as ho had spent more than twenty-four of his total number of years in Uncle Sam’s navy on duty aboard a crafts of some sort or other. He had been assigned to the South Atlantic, to the South Pacific, to Asia tic waters, to the Mediterranean, and even to the Arctic Circle, when ho was one of those in the dash to rescue the Creely relief expedition. Badger’s father, Commodore Oscar Charles Badger, was horn In old Wind ham, Conn., and married Miss Marga ret M. Johnston, of Rockville, Mil. which is fifteen miles from Washing ton, and sometimes called the capital's Gretna Green. Rear Admiral Badger was born In Rockville, August 6, 1853. Right here It Is appropriate to note that there are three generations of United States naval fighters in the Badger family, for the Rear Admiral's son ,1s Ensign Oscar C. Badger, one of the young officers of the service. The future rear admiral was ap pointed to the Naval Academy by President Grant in 1869 and was grad uated as a midshipman in 1873. Adventurous Trip. A few months after leaving the Na val Academy Midshipman Badger started on an adventurous trip. He was one of the Narragansett party, which surveyed the Gulf of California Then he was transferred to shore duty at the Washington Navy Yord, which was followed by a half year detail to the torbedo boat Alarm. In Septem ber IKTti, tie started for three years' service at the Asiatic station. Then came another detail ashore, this time at the Bureau of Navigation In Washington. He was a year aboard the coast survey steamers Endeavor und the A, I). Baohe. In September, 1881, he was detailed aboard the Ynntlc, which qualified him ns one of the members of the cel ebrated (ireenty relief expedition or ganized three years later. Badger was assigned to the Boston Navy Yard when friends In the I'nlteO States be gnn to fear for the safety of the tlreely Arctic explorers. The spring of 1884 came without a word of the Lieuten ant Then the relief expedition was formed, under the late Winfield Scott Schley, at that ttme a commander. Lieutenant Badger was executive officer, which steamed from New York May 10, 1884, tn command of Commander George W. Coffin. Great Enthusiasm. On their return to the I'nlted States Commannder Schley and the other of ficers of tlie rescue expedition were received with great enthusiasm. The State of Maryland, which counted sev eral of the officers ns natives, com mended them for their bravery and young Lieutenant Badger was among tthose mentioned In the resolutions odoped unanimously by the Maryland legislature. In the Spanish war he was attach ed to the Cincinnati and served with credit, if fate gave him no chance of great distinction. On March 3, 1899, he was promoted to the rank of lieu tenant commander Eight years Inter he attained the rank of captain and for two years after this promotion he was superintendent at the Annapolis Academy. Then he took command of the battleship Arkansas and on March S. 1911, he became a reur admiral and received the command of the second division of the Atlantic fleet. Hear Admiral Frank Friday Fletcher is slightly better known than his su perior, for he has Invented several Important ordnance devices which brought him before the public. Fsmout Invention. Among these Inventions are the fa : moua Fletcher breech closing mechan ism, a gun mount, which is an ar ! rangement of truncated cones on a j roller path so reducing friction that a weapon weighing several ions ran be trained literally with one finger and I damped Instantly lo fix It upon the target, and revolutionary Improve ments tn torpedoes. Fletcher graduated from Annnpolts In 1875. and was astgned to the Tus* carora. which surveyed a submarine route for a trans-Pacific cable. Here he developed hie aclentlflc bent, lie was later aboard the Tonconderga, which made an Important voyage to forra He was assigned to the ex pedlllon which determined the longi tude of certain South American points and then he labored (n a yellow fever ! edipdemlc In the city of Panama While he was In command of dif ferent vessels he spent his spare mo ments on his Inventions Through the Spanish war he was assistant chief of I the Ordnance Department at Washing ton. an unprecedentedly high position for a simple lieutenant ■ lie was made a rear admiral In 1811, I Many have compared Fletcher to to tell you what your wonderful remedies have done for me. 1 was a sufferer from female weakness and displacement and I would hava such tired, worn out feelings, sick head aches and diary spells.

I C., in 1895, Demanded 21 Guns. Rear Admiral Henry Thomas Mayo, I whose demand for a twentylone gun salute in reparation for the Insult to ' the Stars and Stripes at Tampico pre cipitated the crisis, is the youngest of the twenty-five rear admirals. He was appointed to the Naval Academy I when fifteen years old. He was born December 8, 1868. Mayo has harl a total sea service of twenty-three years and two months. This figured prominently when he came before the examining board as the first candidate for the rank of Rear Admiral under Secretary Dan iels’ plan, July 17„ 1913. The board, Consisting of Rear Admiral Badger. Rear Admiral Winslow and Rear Ad miral Nathaniel R. Usher, found him fit for promotion and he was shortly transferred from the post of aide for personnel of the Navy Department to the Naval War College at Newport in order tt, obtain certain Important in formation before taking charge of the fourth division of the Atlantic fleet. He has had his command since De cember 18, last. Rear Admiral Frank E. Realty, who was at tlie head of the fourth divis ion, was horn in Wisconsin in 1853 and graduated from the Annapoll Academy in 1875. He married Anne Meem, of Virginia in 1891. He was in command on the trip of the flo-t around the world In 1908, and later commander of the battleship Wiscon sin, of the navy yard at Washington and superintendent of the naval gun factory. Second Division. Rear Admiral Clifford Joseph Roush, commanding the second division of the Atlantic fleet, was 4iorn in Virgin ia in 1854 and appointed to Annapolis in 1872. He has held his present command since October 22, last. The presence of Rear Adihjral Thomas Renton Howard as comman der of (tie American squadron off tho Pacific Mexican coast is a curious echo of the Carabao banquet squab ble. Howard was chairman of the banquet committee of the naval so ciety and one of those on whom the administration wrath descended for the alleged affront to the Filipinos and to Secretary of .State William J. Rry an. Had been ordered to the command of the Asiatic fleet, but now Secretary Daniels revoked the order and sent him to Mexico. Secretary Daniels explained he did not want to punish Admiral Howard but did not think it politic to send him to the Philippine* As it turns out Howard is apparent ly in for an active time, which is what all naval officers long for, while the Asiullc post would have been stupid in comparison. By Pres’t. Grant. Rear Admiral Howard was horn in Galena, Illinois, in 1854. and was ap pointed to tho Academy by President Grant. He graduated in 1873. In 1879 he married Anne J. Claude, of An napolis. Howard was navigator of the Con cord at the Rattle of Manila Ray in the Spanish war He saw much ser vice before hostilities were over, being on the vessels which were used against the insurgents. He commanded the caraval Pinta on Its trip from Rar celona to Havana in 1892-3, in cele bration of the four hundredth anniver sary of Christopher Columbus’ voyage, lie commanded the fourth division of the Atluntic Squadron from 1910 to 1912.
