This latter point was emphasized In a eonliiloiitlnl ca-I'legrinn from the president to Sims, il, the Pl'Tt- lols contradicted many of the assertions made by the admiral, and said the latter aspired to become a member of the Uritish admiralty and put his personal ambition before his duty to his country, his superiors and his associates.
