Too circular will b mulled nt once to all the lodges of tlio association. The Interesting feature of President Shnf 'fer's statement Is his severe criticism of other labor organization:! fat- their falluro to come to tlio aid of the Amalgamated as sociation, lie Is especially sovero In criti cism of tnose labor loaders who promised assistance and, us he soys, "failed to keep their agreement." Ho said: "We were In fairly good condi tion to win without help, but looked for aid from other , labor bodies, somo of which were pledged, and to the general public, but especially relied on the American Fed eration of Labor, with which body we havo been afllllated ever silica Its organization, and to whoso support wo have never failed to contribute C'lnirKcM I'rt'it ulth l.ylim. "Our strike advnnced and we were) confi dent of winning until the newspapers de liberately and maliciously published state ments replete with lies. Our people began to doubt and upbraid; some who had been officials deserted us, anil afterward, like J. D. lllckoy of Milwaukee, accepted" thu terms of the trust and scabbed. Hundreds who dared not sleep nt homo wont to other places, and In nearly every mill the trust tried to run were many Amalgamated as sociation men from striking mills.

Tho part played by the battleship Texas In tho battle of Santiago of July 3, 1S9S, lu which tho Spanish ileot under Admiral Ccrvera was sunk, was the basU of the greater part of today's proceedings of tho naval court of Inquiry. Three witnesses examined had been otll-ct-ra on board Texas during the battle, nd two of 'them wete new wltneiscs. Tlvso v. ere Commander George C. Hellner. who wns iiavlgntor on Texas and Commander Alex II, Hates, who was the chief engineer on that battleship. Commander Hnrber. executive officer and tho chief surviving officer of the ship since the death of Captain Philip, was recalled. The fourth witness was Commander Seaton Schroedcr. execu tive officer on Mnssachussuts and now governor of the Island of fJuam. Tho testimony several times during the day wds somowhat exciting, and It was especially to when Commander Hcllucr do srrlbed the baule and tho part Texas had taken In It. He oaM that when Brooklyn made Its loop It passed arros Texas' bov, nt a distance not to exceed ICO to 160 yards, and that by the command of Captain Philip, Texas had been brought to a dead stop. Mori- DinmiTiMin Tliini lions. Engineer Untes tcstilled that tho star board engines had been stopped and sal.l he thought this also had happened to tho port engines. Commander Hellner ex pressed the opinion that three miles had been made In the manouvcr nnd that part of tho machinery wns deranged. IJe salt! Texas wns In greater danger when Urook lyn crossed Its bow than at any other time during tho battle. On cross-examination Commander Hellner admitted taking part In the preparation of the official Navy department chart showing tho positions at different times tf the shins that participated in the battle. He said that according to this chart tho two shlna were novcr nearer than 600 yards of each other Hut he contended that the chart was Inaccurate, and ho hnd only contented to It ns a compromise. Commander Schrosder testified concern ing tho coal supply of Mnsachussctts. which ho saM would have been sufficient for n blockado of sixteen to twenty davs. The day closed with another nnimntcd dis cussion between counsel as to the policy of brlnglpg Admiral Sampson's namo Into the trial. llonril I'MihIn IIiMIit Comfort. The members of the court found tho ac commodations In tho tool shop at tho navy yard somewhat improved when It met tluro at the usual hour of 11 o'clock today. The long bare room which hitherto had been open from floor to roof, hud been, In op pearonco, at least, completely transformed over Sundny by tho addition of a celling of plain white cloth. This hnd the effect alsa of Improving the acoustics of the hall so that tho court nnd otheri- had lc3S difficulty than formerly In hearing the witnesses. Tho members of the court wero prompt as usual In reaching the navy yard, but when they arrived they found Captain Lcmly and hl3 assistant. Mr. Hanna, already thero busily engaged In getting ready for tho day's work. Among the witnesses who reported this morning wero Admiral C S, Cotton. Com manders James Madison Miller. A. 11. Hates nnd C S. Hellner. Captains H. II. Mc Calla and William C. Wise and Lieutenants John Hood nr.d Spencer F. Wood. Admiral Schley and his counsel arrived at 10:45 o'clock. It was mthorltivjly elated today that the Navy department ha.i no Intention, at present, of bringing Ad miral Sampson to Washington as a witness or to participate In any other mimncr at the Inquiry Tho hands of tho old-fashioned hall clock, standing back of tho scats occupied by the court, pointed directly to the hour of 11 o'clock, when dmlral Dewey, with a 6harp rap of his gavol. called tho court to order. Thero wus nt thnt time n somewhat larger attendance on the part of :hc general public than there had hcrctntoro been nt the be ginning of tho sittings, but there worn fewer distinguished personages occupying the re served seats. Captain Lemly presented the dock Iok books of the Hrooklyn, Texas, Iowa. Cns tine. Marblchead, Massachusetts, Minne apolis, New Orleans. Oregon, St Paul, Scorpion, Yale, Vixen, Eagle. Dupont, Hawk and Merrlmac V 1 son AnUm for I,ik nf New York. "How about tho New York?" asked .Hideo Wilson. "I want to cxpedlto thu proceed ings.' "I havo no objection." responded Captain I.emly. "I, too, want to hasten the pro ceedings ns much ns possible " Proceeding, Captain Lemly said he had suggested such logs at ho considered es sential and that he would have printed tho points considered pertinent. He thon Indicated tho time that ho desired covered by the matter to be printed, but Admiral Schley's counsel oh'ecto.l and asked tint the entire logs from the tlmo that the licet loft Key West until after tiln battlo off Santiago be made available. After somo exchanges of opinion on tho part nf coun sel tho understanding was reached that such parts uf the logs as cither side de sired could bo printed. Captain Lcmly also presented the steam logs of the Hrooklyn, Texas, Mcssachu- ; r Fragrant. Omaha.. .Kansas City. setts, Iow snd the Marblchead. Admiral Schley's counsel asked to have the leg tf the Sranlsh ship Chrlstob.il Colon pre lentod. I ! Colon' I. ok. "Very well. If we can find a Spanish scholar to go through It and select the facts wanted," said Captain Lcmly. "Admiral Schley Is a good Spanish scholar and he ran make such selections as wo may desire," responded Mr. Itayner. S.'hrocder vss recalled and asked If ho desired to make Hny corrections In the of ficial record of his testimony of Saturday. "There is one omission from Admiral Schley's remarks on the Massachusetts on the day of the bombardment of the Colon, which I overheard, which I should like to supply," no replied. "It Is this: He said when he came aboard that Admlul Sampson would be there on I be following clay. He mads that statement in connection with his remark that he was going in to slok tnc Colon." Commander Schroedcr was' then asked concerning the coal supply of the Massa chusetts and wheu he replied tbat he had no Information on that point he was asked to read tho log to secure this Information, Counsel for Admiral Schley objected, but Assistant Jtidg Advocate Hanna In aisled, tiaylng that Admiral Schley's coun sel were merely causing delay by thefr ob jection. "I propose to develop the facts In this case nnd technical objections will not nvall to prevent It," ho said. The purpose of this Inquiry wns to de vclop what measure Lemly nnd Hanna consldsred nn irror In Admiral Hlgglnson's testimony. He had sold that tho Massa chusetts could not have remained on block nils for .moro than twelve days nnd then the vessels would be without coal nnd pow erless to proceed to coal, Tho objection to the question was not prested nnd upon reading from the Iok Commander Schroder said It showed that the Massachusetts had oer 800 tons of coal aboard when It arrived nt Santiago. Conl Siipl- of .MnnsnchtmrMN. Mr. Hanna Assuming that tho Massa chusetts, on blockr.de duty, would use thlrtv to forty tons of conl per day, how long could tho .Massachusetts havo remained on blockado before Santiago with that sup ply of coal?' "That would depend entirely upon the nature of tho blockade and upon whether wo would have to go some distance to re plenish the coal supply. Hy keeping uuder way at night, as we did up to the first of June, of courso. we used a little mor.i conl than we would havo by kcoplng sta tionary blockade. at was done afterward. I do not remember the coil consumption per ilny My recollection was that during tho stationary blockade the noon signal was to go to twenty-flvo or thirty tons n dav." "Assuming It then to bo thirty to forty tons, how long could the Massachusetts hnve remained on blockade?" "At forty tons a day, of course It would remain about twenty days If thsre was a coal supply at hand so we would not have to go off and got some, and there was ccal thero at the time on the Mcrrlmnc " "Steaming at ten knots, about how much coal would the Massachusetts consume on a day's run?" "That 1 do not remember." "Assuming that It was fifty tons a day. that would give It a steaming radius of what?" "My recollections are that wo could make four and a half miles per ton of ccal. So that wo"illd bo about 220 miles a day on fifty tons, nnd I think this probably not far from what was tho case." Conl Neeilnl to Hcnrh Key Writ. "Allowing then sufficient ccnl on the Massachusetts with an equipment of 800 tons to reach Key West, how long could It hovs remained on" blockade, steaming back ward as It did from May 20 to June 1?" "If It used forty tons a day It could have remained twenty days," He then stated thnt It could have re mained sixteen days and would hive had Biifflclont conl left to reach Key West." "Assuming the distance to Key West to be 700 miles, what coal would havo been necessary?" nsked Captain Lemly. Commnnder Schroedcr' "I should think 150 to 175 tuns would have probably taken ua there. We can always rely upon thnf, becsuso as a rulo tho engineers keep a llttlo ahead rather than behind their coal nccount." Si'hrocilcr Will Itetnrn to (iiinm. When Commander Schroedcr left tho stand he vas requested to return tomorrow and correct tho official copy of his testi mony of today If necessary. He said he would d.. so and asked If he could then be excused. "I dislro to make preparations for returning to Ounm." he said. He was told that .o could do so. Lieutenant Commander L. C. Hellner, who wits navigator of Texas during tho Spanish war, was next called. Ho said ho had heard no guns fired when the squadron npproachfd Clenfurj-os. To his knowledge no effort was made to ascertain whether the Spanish fleet wns In the harbor at that point or to destroy Spanish works there. Nor had thero Ken uny effort to comtnunlcotn with Cubans on shore until Captain McCalla ar rived on the Marblehead. Ho told how the lleet had proceeded from Cicnfucgos to v.ithln twenty miles of Santi ago. "We had," ho said, "good weather; a fresh wind and a sea that wns mndsrato to rough." None cf the fighting ships had been delayed, he said, but somo of the smallor vessols had. The lleet was signaled that the rendezvous would be twenty-five miles duo south of Santiago. Commander Hollner said that whllo tho Texas was not In the engagement with tho Colon May 31 ho had seen some of tho shots from tho enemy which had fallen short. Tho witness was then nsked to describe tho battle of July 3 nnd said; rienerllieK Untile nt Snntlnwo. "The Texas had beer, heading sbout cast when the enemy was scon coming out of Santiago. Lieutenant nrlstol, who was offi cer of the deck at the time, rang to go ahead at full speed and put the helm hard to otarboird to make a turn. When I got on deck he Informed me of whst had hap pened and I sent him below and assumed charge of the deck. "Tho captain told mo thnt he had eased tho helm until he could find cut which way the ships wero going, and he also rang half speed. I suggested full spoed. He sold the battery was not ready. I told him it would bo ready before the ship was In position to fire, and then he said all right, and rang full speed. When the second of the enemy's ships followed the first to the westward he put the helm hard to star board. 1 made several reports to him about tho Brooklyn, regarding Its signals, Hi- said 'Never mind." I alto referred to the way I thought the Hrooklyn was stand ins up to fight very nicely. The captain said: 'Oh, crackle, ncvor mind the Brook lyn. You look out for this ship,' Urooklyn was then about tho port beam. So I jald 'All right, captain. I will look at the Brooklyn no more,' and I turned my back, looking on the starboard brnm at the ships getting out. After we sheered around to tho westward, I suggested to clve It a little port helm to get closer In, and he did. Illgiit after h gave It this helm he ssng out through the sight hole to the mm at the wheel and ths engine room to slow up, and I snlrt, 'Captain, they will get away from us,' " llrnoklsn Mill ct Loop. "Ho did not answer me, but Immediately stepped back, snd then I said 'My Lord, Captain, we are out of the fight.' He sail 'Lock at Brooklyn,' I turned around and rlfint ahead of us thU big gray shta loomed up In the smoke. For n second I thought my htart was In my mouth. Wc wero steaming with a heavv helm and It steered by us. When I saw It, It wns prac tically ahead of us. That wns the first I saw It sheered off und went to sea. I should say, nbotit 2,000 yards and then on to tho westward. As soon as Ilrooklvn cleared tn. we rang to go ahead, and started up forced draft again. After that we slmolv went forward ns fast as possible on a line that was Just Inside n line that Oregou was engaging the ships. Just before this turn of Hrooklyn, Iowa and Oregon were both close to us on our starboard helm. Wc continued to cbase until Colon l aulcd down Its flag, when the captain gave the order to stop forced draft." Captain Lcmly: "How close was Brook lyn to Texas at the time you say you saw It loom out of the smoke'" "I did not make any estimate nt the time, but 1 came to the conclusion later that It was between 100 nnd 150 yards from us. which wns a much longer distance than Captain Philip thought It wns." 1'oittlmi of Vri! Itefore Flicht. Captain Lcmly: "Perhaps I should hava aiked you In the fltst place the position of Brooklyn relatl to Texas Just before going Into battle." It was almost astern of us. That Is he causo we were headed almoM east ,Il should havo borne west by norlhwest. It was beading for the land nnd I thouKht It was standing pretty nearly on Its north course. I did not see at .first nny Intima tions of turning and 1 thought It was going right In." "Did Breoklyu glvo any steam wh'stlo to Indicate Its chnngis of couriie?" "That I do not know." "Did you hear nny?" Xn Whittle Itrnnl. "I dbl not hear nny." "Do you think you would hae heard It If there hnd been n steam signal?" ''No, sir, wr could never have heard It." "At what time daring the battle of San tiago do you consider Texas was In tho grcatcM danger?" nsked Captain Lcmly. .Mr. Itayner objected contending tint such opinions were shut out by a previous ruling of the court. Mr Hnnna snld there wero minor points on which the court must from time to time nak tho opinion of wit nesses. Tho point was nlso argued on the one side by Captain Lemly nnd on tho other by Judge Wilson. The court overruled the objection and the question wns repented. On n kit of ('olllKlnn. "Looking back, responded witness. "I know that the time of the grentest danger cf Texas was when Brooklyn loomed up out of the smoke right ahead of us " He said in response to questions that he had never sailed with n man who had quicker sight or who handled his ship to better advantage than Captain Philip. Ho added thnt the enptnln had on the occnslon given successive orders nnd thnt Texns had backed "until It was drnd In the water." He said that on account of thli Incident two or threo minutes had been lost and that fully three miles were lost; to the ship. A part of this delay had, how- over, he said been caused on nccount of tho fnult of the ship's blowers, rendering tho vessel slow in getting up steam. Referring to Commodore Schley's block ado of Santiago hsrbor the witness saU that during thn day tho dlstanco was five or six miles out, but that In steaming across the mouth of tho harbor nt night the distance was gradually Increased. On tho day whsn tho enomy's ships wero dls-' covered the fleet had been closer In. Hoi had, ho sold, on that day seen threo cruis ers Insldo tho harbor. Too lnrk to fire Milps, Asked If tho opportunity wan good at thnt time for observing the vessols the witness replied that after tho ronon set, ns It did ,-nrly In the evening at that tlms, the darkness wns such that tho enemy's ships could not havo been distinguished nl any great distance. Commander Hellner wns then questioned nt considerable length concerning signals. He had, ho said, In response to Mr. Hay ner's questions seen Brooklyn make sig nals to Texas on the duy of the battle. Mr. Hayner What were thoy? "I don't know what they wero. First, I reported a one-flag hoist, which I sup-! posoe, vas 'Clear ship for action.' Thnt was Immediately after going on dock." "How ninny of these signals do you rec ollect being mado to Texas?" "I saw that one, and then shortly after I saw a socond signal, which wns a thren llog hoisted, and that Is the time 1 re ported It to Captain Philip. Hn said, as I stated before, that I wns not to look after rrooklyn. but Texas." "How raony signals did Now York make to Texas on Ihe day of the battln?" asked Mr. Hayner. "I don't know," was tho response. "Did It makn nny sicnals to Texas?" "I saw signnls from Now York, I think, but at S o'clock or 0:30. "How long?" "That I don't know. Twelve o'clock or around that. It may have been half past 12. I saw tho signals In tho chase of Colon." Objection was made to this lino of ques tioning and tho question wns withdrawn temporarily. The court then took a recess until 2 o'clock. When the court convened at 2 o'clock Mr. Hayner continued his cross-examination of Commander Hellner. Ho nsked him especially concerning tho official chart of the battle off Santiago, exhibiting the chart. The witness said he had been one of the board of navigators who had prepared the chart. He had testified that Brooklyn was enly 150 yards distant when it crossed the course of Texas, but ho stated that ac cording to tho chart the dlstanco was about 1,800 feet when Brooklyn wns making Its famous loop, ABSOLUTE SECURITY.

Mr. Hayner then commented quite vig orously upon the fact that the chart wn an official document. After n careful in spection of the map. Commander Hellner revised tils statement, saying that tho dis tance was about linl a mile, ns shown by the chart. Commander Hellner nlso said thnt the chart made Brooklyn go half a mlln out to sea In making Its loop; that on that point the chart was not accurate. At the time ho nld Texas was going nl the rate of twieve knots nn hour. Mr. Hayner questioned the witness nt length concerning signal lights at Clcntucgns, and the latter raid that he had not known until after the arrival of Captain McCalla on tho Mar blchead on May 21 that there was to bo j a system of signals for communicating with Cuban allies on tho shore. Nor had he known until then that Cervera's fleet wus not Inside tho harbor nt Clenfuegos. "Did ycu see nny signals from New York on thn day of the bnttle?" asked Mr. Ra ner. ' "We did not receive any signals from that vessel on that day until In tho after neon," replied tho witness. Fin km It l Coinex Up I.ntr. The witness also said thnt New York hnd not ionic up until the Inst of tho Spanl3h ships came out cf the harbor. Captain Lemly here Interposed to ask the purpose of these Inquiries and Mr. Raj - ; ner stated that It was to bo nblo to mako 1 compirlsnr.a betweon Schley's blockado am!

Captain Lnmly objected, not only to tho Hue of questions, but to tho line of argument. Replying. Mr Hayner said that notwith standing tho strenuous efforts of Captain Lemly to keep Admiral Sampson out of I tho controversy, he would Inevitably boi brought Into It. not for tho purpose of crit icism, but for the purpose of showing that Admiral Schley had merely obuyed the or ders of his superior officer, who wts Ad miral Sampson, In dclng whnt ho hnd done.
