WASHINOTO.V, Sept. 27. In the Schley
court of Inquiry today a letter wan pre
tested from Hear Admiral Sampson aklti
to be allowed to bo represented In the court
by counsel, but the court refused to grant
the request on tho ground that "tho court
does not at this time, regard you as a party
to the case."
The principal wltoetse of tho day were,
lieutenant John Hood, who commanded
the dispatch boat Hawk during tho
Spanish war, and Captain Ilowman II. M"
Calla, who waa In command of .Marblehead,
Thu testimony of both theie officers rclnted
to the delivery of dispatches from Admiral
Sampson to Admiral Schley. Captain Mc
(.'alia gave In detail an account of his ar
ranging a code of signals with the Instir
Kenth near Clenfucgns and an account of
his communication with them May 27, 1608,
when it was learned that the enemy wai
not In the harbor there, it was stated that
Captain Chadwlck, who waa Admiral SnuiD
eon'a chief of staff, was tho only person at
Key West to whom he had communicated
the signal code. Captain McCalla expressed
tho opinion that coaling was feasible off
Santiago at the tlmo Schley began his ret
rngradn movement.
ourt Opens I'unctnnlty,
As usual, Admiral Dewey lost no time
today In bringing the court of Inquiry to or
der, nnd ns usual tho counsel on both sides
of the case were In their scats and prepared
to proceed promptly with tho business lo
foro the court. Captain Lemly estimates
that ho will be nblo to conclude tho pre
sentation of tho government sldo of the
cpse by tho closo of next week. It no un
forseen contingency arises to cause dclav.
'lie Bays he will hvo about fifteen or twenty
more wltnejscs to Introduce.
One of the most regular attendants upon
the court is Mr. William H. Slayton, tho
nttorney who Is understood to be prepnrcd
to represent other naval ofllcors than Ad
miral Schley. He sits outside the tall nnd
does not In any wny participate In tho pro
ceedings. Ho said yesterday that so long
' as Admiral Sampson wax kept out of the
case ho would havo nothing to say.
Today's session begnn with tho recall of
Captain Wise to mako verbal changes In
the official copy of his testimony. He al
tored hln previous ntntcmcnt concerning the
order of tho N'nvy department of May 20,
1S98, In which ho was directed to "Inform
every vessel off Santiago that the Hying
aqundron Is off Clunfuegos," saying that he
desired to correct, his response to the
court's question ns to why this order was
not carried out by stating that It hnd been
carried out. "Tho flying squndron was
ordered to proceed with nil possible dis
patch," nnd, he continued, "I did not do
sire to Inform tho commodore of tho flying
squadron of his movements. Tho order
was to Inform commanders of the move
ments of tho flying squadron."
Cfiittriiilti'tn Cnntnln llnrhrr.
l.lctitenunt Spencer S. Wood, who com
manded the dispatch boat Dupont' during
the Spanish war, was then called nnd con
tinued his testimony, begun yesterday. Mr.
Itayner resumed his eross-rxamlnritlon. The
witness nld that while off Clcnftiegos ho
had.-bciv on picket duty'two mites from
shore on tho night of May it nnd had been
instructed to signal tho.' Rqundron with two
tc, lights In case the enemy's torpedo boats
camo out of tho harbor.
Mr. Uaynor then read from the testimony
of Captain Harbcr of tho Texas, saying that
there had been no picket vessels with the
lino of tho fleet off Clenfuegoa. Tho wit
nets said that tho statement was wrong.
Cnptn'ln I.emly snld Captain Harber had
testified that there wero no pickets "so far
as ho could recall," to which Mr. Hayner
responded, "Wo am not Impeaching llnr
ber's voracity. We nre questioning his rec
ollection, not his Integrity."
Mr. Hayner Captain Hnrber has atatod
that thcro were no pickot boats nt Clonfuo
gos. He was wrong, was he not?
"Ho was," replied tho witness. "I havo
since seen that the commander-in-chief has
nlfo reported that tho Dupont was not
thcrti I have written the department that
I was there. Other people forgot about It,
.too."
Ily tho. Court Could you see tho Texas
from tho Dupont during tha nights of May
22 nnd May 23?
"No. sir.'
' Humid Olijrrt.
Mr. Hnnna objected to Mr. Itayner's
mothods .qf questioning, especially to his
'characterization of Captnlu Harbor's testi
mony ai wrong, when Captain Hnrber had
said distinctly that he only "spoke from his
best recollection."
"This,'' he said, "Is an Indirect Impeach
ment of the witness."
Mr. Itnyner again Insisted that ho had
only Intended to bring out the facts.
Mr. HannH asked what steps had been
taken- while tlflylug squadron was off
Clenfucgns to nseertnln if the Spanish fleet
was Inside tho harbor tharo?"
"None that I know of," wns tho response.
"Was there any effort to destroy the
shoro batteries there?"
Tho witness replied that ho knew of none.
Hn said, replying to another quostlnn by
Mr. tlaynor, that vessols In tho Inside har
bor could not have been discerned from the
outside.
Lieutenant Wood was then dismissed nnd

lM. All drunliti.
as he was leaving tho court room Mr.
Hnnna took occasion to say: "I will make
an announcement while we are waiting.
There has been introduced before the court
a question of the correctness of the Identity
of n certain very Important dispatch sent
by tha Harvard, May 27, from off Santiago
by the commanding officer of tho flying
squadron. It appears that In the process
of translation from the commander-in-chief
to tho department some changes In the lan
guage of the dispatch occurred. I do not
desire at this moment to Interrupt the pro
ceedings by any discussion of that point,
but I shall merely make the announcement
hero that we do Intend to enter Into that
matter very fully and completely; that Is
to say, as fully and as completely as the
court may dcslro before we leave Jt."
hleutennnt John Hood; who, during the
war, commanded Hawk, was tho next wit
ness. He said that on May 23 he hnd de
livered dispatches from Admiral Samp
son to Admiral Schley, when the latter
wns off Clenfucgos. Ho related that bo
had been called to the New York Admiral
Sampson's flagship on May 21, when the
officers on board were preparing dispatches.
Ho upoke of tho presence of Admiral Samp
son. Maimer Olijrrt A Kit In.
Mr. Hayner objected to tho 'introduction
of the conversation, toying that tho orders
would speak for themselves and must nec
essarily supersede any verbal Investigation,
Tho question was argued at eome length.
Mr. Hayner closing, tho Judgo advocate
said: "An objection of this character Is
almost equivalent to withdrawing tho re
quest for an Inveslgatlon. Ho has asked
to have the Judgment of his brother officers
In this matter'. Let Us have It nnd don't
put technical obstructions in tha way of
having tho Investigation..'
Mr. Hayner responded briefly,
"I only desire to state that while this Is
our Investigation, these are your specifica
tions under tho precept. We asked for this
Investigation and Instead of letting us give
tho precept under which we would llko to
hav-i tho Inquiry tnko place, you form n
precept of your own. Hero Is an applicant
who asks for a court of Inquiry under
specifications framed by others nnd not by
himself."
Tho court retired to consider the objec
tion, remaining out longer than on any pre
vious occasion. Admiral Dewey read the
court's decision as follows:
Krllles-'ft ( oiiMnnl SlIMlllllll-ll,
"Tho court sustains tho objection
of counselso far ns It relates to conversa
tions that took placo on board New York,
but thin ruling does not apply to any verbal
orders which the commnndor-ln-chlet di
rected witness to convey to Commodore
Schley."
Replying to n question put In nccordnneo
with this decision, tho witness snld that his
Instructions were contained In tho memo
rnndum hnnded him to be delivered to Ad
miral Schley, which wns read to him.
Tho witness then rend dispatch No. S,
from Sampson to Schley of Mny 21, telling
tho latter that the Spanish squadron was
probably at Santiago. He nlso rend llrook
lyn's receipt memornndum, Allowing that
this dispatch ns well ns the accompanying
memorandum hnd been received nt 8:16 n.
m., Ma 23. The witness Identified these
an the orders ho hnd carried. Hq nlo
said ho had carried two other envelopes,
ono containing lottors from tho department
nnd tho other a memorandum ho had not
rend.
He Raid ho had arrived nt Clenfucgns at
7 v in., May 23, and had gono aboard
Ilrooltlyn for the purpose of delivering tho
dispatches.
nnmiiNoii Orilrr I'lect tn XnutliiRn.
In responso to n request from the Judge
advocate, Lieutenant' Hood related tha con
versation ho hnd had with Admiral Schley
nfter delivering tho orders, saying that ho
(tho witness) had told tho admiral that it
was Admiral Sampson's wish that tho Hying
squadron should proceed Immediately to
Snntlago, ns his Information was very posi
tive. His statement waa ns follows:
"Commodore Schloy rend tho dispatches
nnd then turning to mo said, 'Captain, Ad
miral Sampson wishes mo to go to Santiago.
I cannot do It.'
"I told Commodore Schley that tho ad
miral certainly expected tho squadron to
leavt tho Instnnt I arrived. Commodore
Schloy then snld, In nearly these words:
"I am not nt all satisfied that tho
Spaniards nro not hero In Clenfuegos
besides, tho ships, all want coal; that
MasaschusRtts, Texns nnd Brooklyn wnnted
so mnny tons of coal nnd thnt tho dny beforo
Siitnpson hnd sent him down Ipwn,
with only half Its coal supply, so that It
could not go anywhere; that It wns useless
to send unlps down thcro only half filled
with coal. I told Comoradore Schlep that I
had passed a collier convoyed by a gunboat
only a little bgfoTo daylight that morning,
and It would certainly bo thcro with at
least 4,000 or 5,000 tons of coal within two
or three hours. Ho referred ngaln to his
belief of the Spaniards being In Clenfuegos
nnd stnted that ho hnd heard somo firing
about forty miles from port, which he took
to be a welcotno to tho Spanish squadron;
ho had nlso seen Borne smoke which ho con
ceived to bo tho Spanish squadron and ho
believed they were thcro.
Sclili-- llclucliiiil to I.euvr,
"I said to Commodoro Schloy again that
tho Information which ho had considered as
definite; ho had no doubt but that tho Span
ish squndron was at Santiago. Commodoro
Schley then said to mo: 'Captain Sampson
dors not understand, He Is not on tho spot
and cannot Judge.' 1 nlso Informed Commo
doro Schloy that they certainly expected
tho squadron to leavo immediately nnd that
I hnve hnd vcrbnl orders from tho com-mnnder-ln-chlcf
which did not appear In my
written orders, to remain with Hawk alone
at Clenfuegos after tho squadron had loft

and conduct a blockade as long as ray coal
supply lasted."
"The commodore was sitting In his chair
alt the time I was talking to him, very
quietly. He seemed to bo very much per
plexed at what to do."
"Can you state whether or not during the
time you were off Clenfuegos with Hawk
any effort was made to communicate with
the Insurgent Cubans?"
"There wns not."
Mr. Rayner began his cross-examination
a few minutes before 1 o'clock, and had not
proceeded far when tho court took a recess
for luncheon.
When court began the afternoon session
Mr. Rayner continued bis cross-examination
of Lieutenant Hood. The latter said
his recollection was that ho had delivered
his dispatches to Commodore Schley in his
(Srhley's) cabin.
('oner ruin x Sn miniiti' Instruction.
Mr. Hnyner said: "I wnnt to, ask you
whether In this conversation with Commo
dore Schloy upon this occasion ho did not
toll you that Admiral Sampson had In
structed him, before he left for Santiago, to
eatlsfy himself that the Spanish fleet was
not nt Clenfuegos?"
The reply was: "I gathered from his
conversation that ho had that Information
In some of tho dispatches which were writ
ten previously to tho dispatch I carried
Ulm, which whs of considerably Inter dato
and therefore of course nnnulted all the
othete."
Mr. Rayner questioned the witness con
cerning tho report of the presence of tho
Spanish fleet nt Santiago and attempted to
read a quotation from a magazine article
alleged to havo been written by Admiral
Sampson to sustain bis point that Adula
had reported that tho fleet remained at San
tiago only one day.
Mr. Hnnna objected to tho Introduction
of the article as testimony. He said among
other things: "I hnve written magazine
articles myself for prominent gentlemen
whoso names wero signed to them." Ho
said, however, that he did not doubt that
the article was Admiral Sampson's. Tho
question wns ultimately withdrawn for tho
tlmo being.
Cnptiiln MoCnlln Cnllril,
Lieutenant Hood was excused and Captain
McCalla, who commanded Marblehcad dur
ing the Spanish war, was called. He stated
that ho had first come Into contact with
tho Hying squadron May 19, 1898. Ho was
then proceeding from the south coast of
Cuba to Key West aud met tho squadron on
Its way to Cuba.
Captain McCalla told "of his roturn to
Clenfuegos on tho morning of May 24. Hc
had carried dispatches to Admiral Schloy
and had then told him of tho nrrangemont
to communicnto with tho Cubans and ot
his information that the Spanish fleet was
in tho harbor at Santiago. Ho said that
Schley had Immediately assented to his
going axhorc. Ho also told of his report
to Schley and had then for tho first tlmo
seen tho Instructions to the commodore. The
commodore had told him that ho had found
difficulty In coaling, but that ho felt, that
If ho returned to Key West he would bo
court-martialed. McCalla said ho had ad
vised him to go to Santiago, even If ha
did not stay .hero. In reply to questions
Captain McCalla stated that no effort had
been made whllo ho was with the flying
squadron off Clenfuegos to prevent tho
Spaniards from continuing tho construction
of earthworks, which ho had been ordered
to do. He said Marblehead could havo gone
within range of these works nnd that be
had been told by a Cuban pilot that the
water wr.s deep. Captain McCalla expressed
tho opinion that Marblehead could have
coaled ou the evening of May 28.
What Scaler I?ft Undone,
In response to questions he next related
briefly the bombardment of tho Cristobal
Colon on May 31. When asked what had
been left undono to accomplish tho destruc
tion of that vessel ho replied that Admiral
Schloy had failed to use his entire force
In making the attack.
Mr. Hanna inquired if this was an Im
portant omission. Captain Tarker, on bo
half of Admlrnl Schloy, objoctcd. Tho ob
jection was sustained by Admiral Dowoy,
ho romnrking that "such, questions should
not bo asked under the ruling of tho court."
Captain Parker was about to proceed with
further remarks, whereupon Admiral
Dewey asked him to desist, saying: "Wo
will adjourn now; wo can take all day to
morrow for that."

nnd twenty-one deputies, arrived in Auburn
nt 3: 16 a. m. Tho prison Is only about
fifty yards from the depot. Awaiting the
arrival of tho train there was a crowd of
about 2U0 people. Either for fear of the
crowd, which was not very demonstrative,
or from sight of tho prison, Czolgosz1 legs
gave out and two deputy sheriffs were
compelled to practically carry tho man Into
(he prison. Insldo tho gate his condition
becamo worse and he was dragged up tho
stairs and Into tho main hall. He was
placed In a sitting posture on the bench
whllo tho handcuffs were being removed,
but he fell over aud moaned and groaned,
wincing tho most object terror. As soon
s the handcuffs wero unlocked tho mnn
was dragged Into tho principal keeper's
office. As tn the caso of all prisoners, tho
officers Immediately proceeded to strip
him and put on a new suit of clothes.
During this operation Cznlgosz cried and
yelled, making the prison corridors echo
with evidence of his terror. Tho prison
physician, Dr. John Gerllu, examined the
man and ordered his removal to tho cell
In tho condemned row, which ho will oc

that he had no accomplices and declared
that he novcr had heard of tho man undor

Mrs. l'lnkimm is inclined to the belief that our K'irls nfo. pushed al
together too near tho limit of their endurance nowadays In our public schools
and seminaries.
Nothing Is allowed to Interfere with studies, the plrl must be pushed to
the front and praduntcd with honor; often phvslc.il collapse follows, and it
takes years to recover tho lost vitality, often'lt Is never .recovered.
The dawn of womanhood Is always a danger period nud it Is made doubly
bo by over exertion in study or work.
All .voting girls at this porintl of life nro onrncstly invitott to
