Incident.
WAHHINOTON, Oct. 23. Admiral Schley
Is expected to take the witness stand In the
navnl court of Inquiry, which In Invesygat
Inf; his conduct In tho Spanish war, somo
tlmo during tho dny tomorrow. This an
nouncement Is Justified by the progress
made today In tho examination ot witnesses
called today to testify In tho admiral's be
half, night witnesses were examined today,
and there are only three more names pre
ceding the name ot the ndmlral himself.
Of these three only Captain Clark of the
battleship Oregon Is expected .to testify at
any length. It Is not probablo that (he ad
miral will bo called before the afternoon
session. He will bo the last of the wit
nesses to be heard In support of hit side ot
tho controversy. It Is now considered that
bo will be on tho stand for two or three
days.
It Is not yet posslblo to say whether any
witnesses will bo called In robuttal by the
court, but It seems probable that a few
pe'r.xons may bo summoned for this pur
pose. The testimony today led Judge Advo
cato l.otnly nnd Mr. Hanna to dccldo upon
tho calling of at least eno rebuttal witness
If ho can be found. This Is Sylvester Scovel,
whose testimony Is desired of the meeting
ot ,1 press boat with the scout boat St. Paul.
Tho first of today's now witnesses, James
Itaro, photographer oil the press boat,
tcstlflid tli u t Captain Slgsbea on St. Paul
had told the correspondents on May 25 or
id that Cervera's fleet was not Inside the
harbor at Santiago, Mr. Scovel was ono of
the correspondent!) on the press boat, Smith,
and if ho can bo found he will be asked to
come to Washington nnd give his testimony
on this Incident.
Other Testimony In Itptiuttnl.
It Is probablo that an effort will be made
to rebut other testimony given In Admiral
Schley's behalf, Including Lieutenant Har
ris' denial of a conversation with Admiral
Schley, In which tho lieutenant Is alleged
to havo taken part on board Massachu
setts on May ill. Tho threa witnesses In
addition to Mr. Haro were: Chief Boat
swnln William L. Hill, dunncr V. T. Ap
plcgato mid Major Paul Murphy of the
marines, nil of whom wore aboard Brook
lyn during tho -Cuban campaign; Lieu
tenant Commander Harlow, who as execu
tive olllccr of Vixen, made notes of tho
battlo ot July 3, and thrco officers of Ore
gon, Lieutenant A. A. Ackerruan, Lieu
tenant U. W. Ebcrlo and It. O. Johnstono.
Lieutenant Ackcrman had chargo of the
after thlrtccn-lnch turret and Lieutenant
Kborlo of the forward thlrtcen-lnch turret
on Oregon on July .1 and Lieutenant John
stoue,, who was signal ofllccr on Oregon at
that time.
Mr. Johnstono testified that he did not
receive any signal from Oregon to flro
Its thlrtcen-lnch guns at the Spanish ship
Cristobal Colon, and all Oregon's officers
who testified today exprosscd tho opinion
thut Oregon and Brooklyn were practically
rout-distant from Colon when that
vessel went ashore. Some of thorn, how
ever, were Inclined to think that Brooklyn
was a shade nearer tho Spanish ship.
Whllo BoatswalUjIUlt was giving his tes
timony, which was very complimentary to
Admiral Schley," there wore' two outbursts
of applause. These wero promptly sup
pressed by Admiral Dewey.
Afternoon I'rocreiUiijrn,
When tho court reconvened Lieutenant
Ackcrman spoke ot tho tiring of Brooklyn,
saying: "Toward tho end of the chase I
saw no shots from Brooklyn that reached
Colon."
(living the various positions of Brooklyn
during tho engagement, Lieutenant Acker
mnn said that from tho time Teresa went
ashoro Brooklyn was from threo to four
points on Oregon's bow, but at times It
wn nearly abeam. Tho dlstanco varied
from 1,000 to 2,000 yards and toward the
end ot tho chase Brooklyn seemed to him to
vcor out, apparently for tho purpose of
heading off Colon.
On cross-examination tho witness said
that tho extremo range of the eight-inch
guns, such as were used on Brooklyn, was
9,000 yards. Ho also, at Captain Lemly's
suggestion, reiterated his testimony con
cerning Texas whon passed by Oregon at
tho beginning of the battle. Ho repeated
that thru vessel was not apparently mak
ing headway, but ho could not, he said, tes
tlfy that It was lying dead In the water.
"How did Brooklyn appear to bo heading
relatlvo to Oregon and the Spanish ves
bcls ut that tlmo?"
'Ml appeared to bo heading for the head
land beyond Colon, with tho Intention of
cutting off that vessel."
"Which vessel, Brooklyn or Oregon, wan
nearer Colon when It wont ashoro?"
"That Is very difficult to say. Tractlcally
tho two vessols were on tho same circle.
Probubly Brooklyn was n short distance
nearer, but tho difference was hnrdly ap
preciable. Brooklyn was, however, '9,000
yards or more from Colon. This I know
from our bearing and range."
In response to n question from the court
tho wltueBH said that he knew of tho re
ceipt of no signal from Brooklyn until well
ofter tljo chiiso hud begun, when he had
understood that Brooklyn had signaled to
close up,

Lieutenant Ackcrman was succeedod on
Ihe stand by K. T. Applogato, who was a
gunner on Brooklyn dMrlng the Santiago
battlo. In reply to a question as to the
amount of ammunition expended on Brook
lyn on tho day of tho battle witness re
plied: "Wo ued tip 560 five-Inch shells,
VH clght-lneh, 1,200 slx-pounders and 400
eno-poundoto;"
"During tho battle was there any tlnv
within your observation that tho guns or
Brooklyn could have been trained on the
enemy?"
"No air."
''Some of them wero always In use?"
"Some were always In use during ths
complete fnrn."

the action?"
"Several times, and spoke to him."
"What Impression did his conduct, man
ner and bearing convey to you?"
"Ho seemed to be cool, calm and collected
and one who Inspired confidence."
Tho next witness was Lieutenant K. W.
Kbcrlc, who was watch and division ofllccr
on Oregon In the Santiago campaign. .
Oregon had, he said, passed within from
ldO to 150 yards ot Iowa,
Lieutenant Ebcrle was cross-examined by
Mr. Hanna, who asked: "Do you recall any
signals from Brooklyn to Oregon at about
the time Vlscaya went nshoro?"
"After Vlscaya went ashore, Brooklyn
signaled: 'Well done, Oregon.' After that
It signaled 'One of my compartments Is full
of water.' It made another signal: 'It
seems of Italian build,' and Captain Clark
told the signal officer to make signal 'It
may have been built In Italy, but It will land
on tho coast ot Cuba.' We could, not see the
men of Brooklyn and It was not therefore
Sjint."
nrnoklyti-Oreifnii Signals.
Lieutenant It. O. Johnstone, who was sig
nal officer on Oregon, gave a detailed state
ment of tho signals between Brooklyn and
Oregon during the engagement ot July 3.
Lieutenant Johnstono was followed by
Major Paul Murphy, who commanded the
marines ot tho Hying squadron during the
Cuban campaign and who was on Brooklyn
on tho day of tho engagement ot July 3,
was In charge of six forward guns
under the forecastle. lie gave the closest
range of July 3 at 1,100 yards. In response
to a question from Mr. Ilaynor, Major Mur
phy said he had seen Commodore Schley
during tho day of the battlo of July 3, and
that his manner and conduct "Impressed mo
iib It seems to havo Impressed everyone on
Brooklyn aB that ot a brave and reso
lute ofllccr. Ho Inspired tho utmost confi
dence throughout tho ship."
Major Murphy was followed by Lieuten
ant Commander Charles II. Harlow, execu
tive ofllccr of Vixen during tho Santiago
campaign, who described the battle of
July 3.
The witness said ho had observed tho
reconnaissance ot May 31, and that previous
to that ho had known nothing of the
strength of the Spanish shore batteries. He
had then learned that they wore strong
unough to throw projectiles out beyond tho
position of Vlxon. The court adjourned
for tho day while Commander Harlow was
still on the stand.

Higher Fields of Unman
Knilcavnr,
NEW HAVEN, Conn., Oct. 23. The clos
Ins exercises of Yale's bicentennial were
officially commemorative. They were
held in the Hyperion theater. Classical
music, a commemorative poem and n Oreek
festival hymn, both composed for the occa
sion, a commemorative address by David
J. Brewer, associate Justice ot the United
States supremo court, and finally the cloth
ing with the hoods of the honorary degrees
of great men, a list of whom affords a
roster of monumental fame these consti
tuted the day's exercises.
President Roosevelt nnd President Hadley
entered the theater at 10:30. The president
of the United States was led by the uni
versity's president to the seat of honor
directly behind tho orator's desk. President
Hadley took his seat beside him. On this
platform wero Joseph H. Choate, John Hay,
Richard Olney, Chief Justlco Melville W.
Fuller and Justice Brewer of the United
States supreme' court; Presidents Eliot ot
Harvard, Patton ot Princeton, Faunce ot
Brown, Harper of Chicago, Harrison of
Pennsylvania and 6thcr college presidents,
besides literary men and churchmen of
distinction. Admiral Sampson, apparently
In 111 health, did not enter with the proces
sion. He made his way to his place through
n side door and leaning on the arm of Prof.
H, W. Farnam was shown to his seat.
Cnniiueniornttve lixerelses.
The set program was carried out with
precision. After the overture tho com
memorative poem, composed by Edmund
Clarenco Stcdman, was read
Noxt was rendered the Greek festival
hymn, written by Prof. Thomas D. Goodoll
of Yale, and sung to music written by Prof.
Parker, the conductor, by a student chorus
accompanied by tho soloists, Dr. Carl Dufft,
baritone, and Wallace Moyle, tenor.
David Joslah Brewer, LL.D., Justice of the
United States supreme court, delivered the
commemorative address. Justice Brewer
was given a tremendous ovation. Early In
his address, Justlco Brewer elicited hearty
applause from the audlenco when he re
ferred to Yale as a place "where mon are
taught to recognize a Washington, whether
his name Is George or Booker,"
The presentation of candidates for hon
orary degreos followed tho commemorative
address and the function occupied about
one hour. President Hadley was extraor
dinarily felicitous In the delicate compli
ments he conveyed to the distinguished
candidates. Secretary John Hay, Joseph II.
Choate, Chief Justlco Fuller, Archbishop
Ireland, Mark Twain, Scth Low and Rear
Admiral Sampson received tremendous ova
tions. Tho foreigners, who were honored
with degreos, also were received with great
enthusiasm.
Cheer Greet Rooserelt.
When the long list had been finished Pres
ident Hadley advanced a step or two and
with great lmpresslveness said: "Thero
yet remains one name." In an. Instant tho
great audience was standing. The presi
dent of the United States also rose and tho
theater rang with jcheera. The air was
filled with waving 'handkerchiefs and pro
grams. Remarking that Yale had chosen for' the
degree this candidate before he became
president, President Hadley announced that
all Yale men were now "doubly honored by
greeting the man and tho president as a
son of Yale."
Addressing President Roosevelt, 'President
Hadley spoko as follows:
"Theodore Roosevelt While you were yet
a private citizen we offered you most
worthily the degree of LL.D. Since In His
providence It has pleased God to give Theo
dore Roosevelt another title, we give him
on that account a double portion of wel
come. He Is a Harvard man by nurturo,
but we are proud to think that In his dem
ocratic spirit, hli broad national sympa
thies and, above all, bis purity and truth,
bo will be glad to be an adopted son of
Yale."
President's Aooeplance.
President Roosevelt advanced, bowed pro
foundly and tried to speak. Again the au
dlance cheered and It was fully a mlnuto
before ho was allowed to proceed. He said:
"President Hadley, I have never yet
(worked at a task worth doing that I .did
not find myself working shoulder to shoul
der with some son of Yale. I have never
yet been In a struggle for righteousness and
decency that there were not men of Yale
to aid mo and give me, strength and cour
ace. "As we walked hither this morning we
passed by a gateway which was raised to
the memory of a young Yale lad who was
hurt to death beside me as he and a
great many others like us marched against
the gunfire of the heights, and with those
memories quick In my mind I thank vou
ftom my heart for the honor you have
done me, and I thank you doubly, for you
planned to do me that honor while t was
yet a private citizen."
The hymn, "America," was then sun
and the audience dispersed. The streets
at the side of Hyperion theater were
Jammed with 'people, all anxious to catch a
glimpse of President Roosevelt. With as
much dispatch as possible the distinguished
guest was driven to the residence of Prof,
Henry W. Farnam, where luncheon was
se rvtd.
On the closing day of the celebration
New Haven has been literally Yale-mad
slnco early morning. Schools, factories
and stores wero closed, while the towns
people thronged the streets to do honor to
the president of the United States, the
guest of the university.
A finer October day could not well be
Imagined and all remarked the fact that
scarcely a 'cloud had bidden the sun by
day and the moon by night during tho
four days which have been given over to
the stupendous celebration,
President Roosevelt and party arrived on
time at 9:30, after an hour's run from Farm
Ington, where a considerable company of
people had gathered to bid him good bye.
Many people were at the stations along the
way to New Haven, and a good deal of
cheering was heard as tho president's train
rushed through.
In addition to the regular party, the
president was accompanied on the trip by
Governor McLean, Commander and Mrs,
Cowles, Miss Alice Roosevelt, bis. daughter,
Miss Helon Roosevelt, his niece, and Mrs,
W, Bayard Cutting of New York.
Welcome to Iinosevelt.
Though the crowd at tho station1 hore was
a big one and demonstrative In its welcome
to the president the police arrangements
enabled the party to laavo the train and
pass to the carriages In waiting without
difficulty.
President Hadley of Yale and Mayor John
P, Sutdley wero on hand to receive the dis
tinguished guest, and after an exchange of
greetings, briefly, the ride toward tho uni
versity campus was begun by way ot State
and Chapel streets. The escort Included a
representation of the naval and military
forces ot the state. In tho carriage with
President Roosevelt were the president of
Yale, the governor of Connecticut and the
mayor of New Haven. Tho next carriage
contained Colonel Theodoro A. Bingham, V.
S. A., and Secretary Cortclyou, and In it
third carriage rode Commander Cowles and
party, The procession passed through
streets decorated with bluo bunting and
under arches of tho same color relieved by
feBtoons of evergreen. Along Chapel Btrect
and past tho historic green tho procession
moved quickly and turning Into College
street passed the front of the reatanglo of
buildings which enclose the university cam
pus. Tho entranco to the campus was
through Phelps gate, with Its orange-hued
decorations and special Inscriptions of wel
como to tho president.
Upon arrival at tho campus the president
was conducted to Battcll chapel and after
a brief rest there, was escorted to his place

ROOT RETURNS TO TAKE MATTER IN HAND
Secretary of War I at III Dek
Again to Deride What Course
to Pursue Toward
Itetiels.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23. Secretary Root
resumed his official duties at the War de
partment today after an absence ot several
wceki. Ills vacation was Interrupted sadly
by the assassination of President McKlnley
and the sorrow and excitement Incident to
that tragic affair so affected the health of
Socretary Root that ho was compelled to
seek several weeks' rest and seclusion In
the mountains. Ills system waa badly run
down from overwork and his physicians
prohibited his return to Washington until
he had recovered his health. His office In
tho War department was thronged with vis
itors throughout the day. The secretary
was In 'exceedingly good spirits nnd, Judg
ing from appearances, Is prepared to meet
the heavy responsibilities devolving upon
him.
There is an enormous amount of work
awaiting .Secretary Root's Immediate con
sideration. This Includes several Important
questions In connection with the military
situation In the Philippines, tho withdrawal
ot troops from Cuba and the establishment
of the Cuban republic, the establishment of
the proposed war college, the establishment
of permanent camp grounds for the Instruc
tion of troops of the regular army and na
tional guard and the preparation of his an
nual report to congress.
One question relates to the army in the
Philippines. It is for him to determine,
whether existing conditions require that re
inforcements shall, bo sent to GcneVal
Chaffco or whether the army may be re
duced without Impairing Its efficiency.
Whllo the officials ot the War department
are watching with keen intorest the devel
opments in Samar they do not anticipate
that the outbreak will roach any serious
stage. Samar Is an Island which never has
been under civil rule but has becu con
trolled entirely by the military. It Is one
of the Islands mentioned In General Mac
Arthur's last report as bolng In such a
state as to require military supervision. It
Is believed at tho department that General
Chaffee has ample force to handle tho In
surgents In, Samar.
So Increase Yet Planned.
There Is no present Intention ot Increas
ing the forco In the Philippines beyond
the number now there. The troops to bo
sent to the Philippines In the next month
or two will take, the places of those whose
terms of enlistment havo expired. By tho
expiration ot enlistments within tho next
few months the army In tho Philippines
will be reduced by about 10,000 men. The
officials of the War department are mak
ing preparations, to meet this deficiency by
the transfer of troops from the United
States. Final action In that regard awaits
only the approval of the secretary of war.
Troops and transports are ready to start
for the Philippines as soon as he gives tho
word. It Is expected that the first expedi
tion will start from San Francisco early
next month on the transports Grant and
Meade and that more troops will bo for
warded later from New York by way of the
Suez canal on the transport Crook. The
reductions will, be gradual and will be met
from time to time by fresh troops as re
quired. Thcso arrangements are predicated on the
belief that It will be necessary to main
tain the Philippine army at a strength of
about 40000 men for some 'tlmo to come.
Casualty Iteport.
Adjutant Ooneral Corbln has, received
the following mail report from' General
Chaffee giving a list of the casualties In
