Washington, July 27.—The
feeling of the men in the navy
Over the Sampson-Schley con
troversy is shown in a letter re
cieved here from an officer on
the Brooklyn. Naturally this
letter gives the Schley side of it.
for the Brooklyn is the commo
dore’s flagship, and every man
on it worships him. Though this
may in a sense be a prejudiced
view of the situation, it is none
the less interesting, for it gives'
an insight into the life in the
navy and a picture of the great
battle as it appeared to one who
was in it.
In this letter the writer says:
“You get so many contradic
tory reports about the battle
(hut doubtless you wonder some
times if them ever was a fleet.
So I’m going to tell you, in the
most general way, how it hap
pened. '
“The ships were ranged in a
s -mi circle aoout the mouth of
the harbor, distant three miles.
The Brooklyn on the extreme
West, Texas next, then lowa,
Oregon and Indiana. Cervera
chose that day because he saw
that the N'-w Orleans, -New
Yoik, Newa'k mud Massachu
setts were away. ’‘lie. knew he
could run nwuv from ail the bat
ilwship" except the Brooklyn,
a>d thought he < ould beat her.
So his pludl was for all four us his
cruisers to concentrate their fire
on th ■ Brooklyn, as there would
then be no ship that could pur
sue him.
“It was a splendid plan, a
wisely chosen opp nl.unity, ex
cellent strategy, and the only
thing be lacked was the men be
ikiiiu tlifl vV it ii AjiitfriCrtil
g mners h * would have sunk us
in ten minutes.
“S ihley saw through the
game in a minute, and remark
ed to Captain Co«»k that he
thought the Brooklyn wniid
have to be sacrificed but he nev
er hesitated. We steamed right
in toward them, firing with our
port buttery, until we got so
close that we were in iminiiiont
danger of rum and torpedo. Then
we turned to the rightr, and fs
they tried to rpn between v.«
and the shore wk eilrJed around
and chased the in dhwn the coast
to the Westwa'd. A newspaper
man from Jamaica told me af
terwards that the Yizcaya peo
ple had chosen us as their spe
cial antagonist, even as we had
done with them ever sj|ice the
ships lay side by side at the
queen’s jubihe.
“They certainly put up a
garni fight, but we bored them
through and through and they
kept up a hot running fight for
m hour and a half. It was a
good thing for us that the
Oregon was there. She speedily
tell in behind us and raced along
at ahou» I’s knots.
“We hud the Vizcaya on the
quarter and the Cristobal Colon
on our bow until the former was
forced to run ashore, perforated
with five-inch and eight-inch
shells. There was not a (liirteen
in°h shell i i hbr, which makes
it look as if the Brooklyn and
Oregon did the work. The mor
al effect of the Oregon was good,
however, jind I think it wa< ‘.be
way she k'pt up that sc tret I the
Cristobal Coion »uto surrender
while it was still an even chance
whether she would getaway cr
not. After the battle was over
her captain begged to be allow
ed to come aboard to satisfy
himse'f with his own eyes th
we were not a battleship.
“Captain Evans was aboard,
blowing to the commodore about
how the lowa sank two destroy
ers and two cruisers. He was
about to go on and claim the
other two cruisers as his vic
tims when the commodore dryly
remarked that he wis sorry the
Brooklyn didn’t get into it,’
and ‘that she didn’t fire a shot.’
You should have seen ‘Fighting
Bob’ shut up. This incident is
characteristic of both men.
Here’s the way we sing it now:
Where wan Sampson when the fleet came ou ?
Where was he, and what was he about?
Come, iny little man. ell me if you can.
Where Sa-npion when the fleet came out?
“You know the New York
didn’t fire a shot except ata few
old hulks chat had hauled down
their flags , and carpe boiling up
to the Colon about an hour af
ter she had surrendered to com
modore Schley. There is.very
bitter feeling between the New
York and Brooklyn.e, They are
very jealous of us, and we hate
them for the petty meannesses
they haye shown usever since
they came down here.
There will be a free’for all
fight when the crews get ashore
together, with a little fire water
inside. We are all growing Schley
boards; they will be all tile tag®
when we strike NeW York.’’
