At the request of Mr. ltayncr, witness made measurements from his chnrt to nhov the dlstanco Drooklyn wan from the Span ish nlilpn during the fight off Santiago. The reply was: "The distance of Oqunndo from Ilrooklyn, taken from the -hart Just before the turn, Ib 1.C00 yards, Marin Toresn, 3,700 yards. Taken from the chart when Marin Teresa and Oquendo were about to run nshore, which Is practically the nearest point, Oqucndo was 2.S00 yards from Ilrooklyn and the .Maria Teresa 3,000 yards." Quoting l,Ioutennnt Commander Hodg son's, statement that the Hhorten range of Brooklyn's guns In the battle, was 1,100 yards, and Itn greatest 2.S0O yards, nnd re ferring to the fact that a number of Brooklyn's five-Inch shells had struck the Spanish ships, Mr. Rayner asked a number nt questions for the purposo of showing that If tbn distance was as great as the chart shows and thu guns were set for the range given, It would have been Im possible for the shots to go to the mark. "Isn't It certnln," ho nsked, "If tho shots struck that tho chart Is Incorrect?" The witness replied that Maria Tereaa nnd Oquendo could have been hit with flve-lnch guns. Tho Judge advocnto asked: "How far would have been Brooklyn from the lead ing Spanish ships Just emerging from the harbor of Santiago provided It had Imme diately started ahead at twolvo knots?" Might llnvf (.often (.'loner. In reply the witness said: "At twclvo knots' opced It would go In five minutes 2,000 yards If It was going nt that speed, but It was dead In tho water, as I under stand. Tho.rc?oro I Apould Kay It would mako about 1,000 ynrds the first five min utes. That would mean that It wnn close to 6,000 yards from the Morro. The Bhps when I first sighted them were, I believe to tho best of my recollection, 1,000 yards lnsldo Morro. Theso shlpu eame out of there nt about ten or twclvo" knots. At twelve knots they would go one-twelfth of nno knot In five minutes, That Is 2,000 yards, but they turned to tho westward, so they did not go 2,000 yards. But call It 2,000 yards. Then, 2,000 yards and 1.000 subtracted from 7,000, plus 1,000, makes 8,000, which Vould make them S,000 yards off nt tho first Bhot." Lieutenant Bristol was then excused nnd Boar Admiral Taylor was railed. He stated that when tho battle off Santiago on July 3 began Indiana, of which he wan In command, had occupied the easternmost post on the lino of tho blockade, having taken the place of the flagship New York when It left for Slbonoy. In reply to n question from the Judgo ad vocate as to whether he had observed tho position of Brooklyn nt tho time of tho beginning of the bnttlo the witness said: "Just before tho beginning of the battle I did nnd on two occasions thereafter." IlrioUl it'ln lliittle. "After tho beginning of tho battlo please ntato whero you observed Brooklyn, whothcr you noticed Its proximity to Texas nnd what It was." "When tho battlo had bcon on nbout ten or fifteen minutes my attention was Attracted to Ilrooklyn by my signal of flcor, Captain Dawson. He said to mo that Brooklyn' must bo Injured, or words to that effaat, ns It was. dropping out at ac tion. I observed Brooklyn heading appar ently ahout south or off shore. It wotf then on my portbow, half n mile, perhaps, ahead of m'o and at that time n quarter of a mile outilde of the line of our column, It was not turning as far as I could see, Texas was apparontly lying still In tho wntcr. I did not see whether It wns back ing or not." In reply to a question If there was any attempt ,on the. part, of the Spanish, ves sels to rnm any of tbe vessels of the Amer ican squadron, witness said; "I observed that there was no such at tempt," When the Judgo advocnto had concluded hla Interrogatories Mr. Itnynor hegan IiIh cross-examination, with an effort to In troduce certain signals which had passed between Iudlana nnd Admiral Sampson's flagship, Now York, on tho early morning Salt Rheum It nirty become chronic.

Ho wan not permitted nt that time to do no, but It Is understood that tho signals which he tried to Introduce) .in having been sent from New York to tndlann was dated S .15 a, m. of that day and wan nn Invitation from tho flagship to accompany It to Slboney, whllo tho re sponse was a declination tu do so. Saiiipsoii'a 111 vital Inn Drcllnctl. The admiral's Invitation was wigwagged by Cnptnln Chadwlck and was as follows: "Tho admiral wishes to know If you will Join him this morning In going to sea Gen eral Shatter." To this Captain Taylor relied at 8:87; "Work nboard ship previously going on prevents me from going with you today." Mr. Hoyner contended that tho nlgnnls wero among tho most Important occur rences of tho day prior to the time the command of tho Meet devolved upon Com inodor Schley. Captain Lemly repltnd that under previous rulings of tho court tho reading of tho slguala was Clearly inad mlssahle. He, however, ngreed that he would consult with Mr. neyner nnd that If after this consultation the question In cluding the rending of tho signals should appear proper Admiral Taylor could be recalled nnd the question asked. To thin Mr. Itnyner consented and the court took n reces3 for luncheon. At the afternoon session Admiral Taylor said that on the morning of the battle 'of July 3 Indiana had signaled: "The enemy Is escaping." Tho court asked only one question of Admiral Taylor, ns follows; "Was Indiana In such position with reference to Brooklyn and tho enemy's 'ships Just after they clenred the entrance of the barbpr that you could form a, fairly correct estimate of tbn distance?" "A't the tlnjo mentioned there were only tw,o occasions . wbeni.lho. raoke,. permitted me to see Brooklyn distinctly. I could not, therefore, say what was tho dlstanco between tho enemy nnd Brooklyn Just after tho Spanish fleet came out of tho harbor." I'otU Quote Nohlry'a Tllrrnt. Admiral Tnylor wns then excused and Lieutenant Commander Templtn N. Potts, who was navigator of Massachusetts, was called. Commander Potts said that he had been on Mnnsachunutt.1 on May .11, the day of the bombardment of Colon, when Com modore Schley had used that vessel ns his flagship. Speaking of Commodore Schley's con versation on that occasion witness Bald: "When Commodore Schley enmo on board 1 heard him nay: 'Hlgglnsnn, I am going In with you and Iowa and pot Colon with your big guns, I wnnt lo tire deliberately, Admlrnl Sampson will be hero tomorrow morning and I wish to destroy Colon,' or words to that effect. After that thoro was a conversation between Commodore Schley nnd tho commanding officer of the ship ns to when wo would go In nnd It was de termined that we would ullow the men to go to dinner and go In aftcrwnrd, which wo did, Later on, about .1 o'clock, llhlnk, while on the (tort bridge, Just abaft tho pilot house, I was present nt a conversa. tlon between Conlrn'odoro Schley and Cap tain Hlgglnson, In which the question of when?, tho Hhlp was to ho fought was un der discussion, Commodoro Schley asked Cnptaln Hlgglnson what position he In tended to take. He replied: 'I think the conning tower.' Commodoro Schoy re plied: 'Yes,'! think that In wisest.' 'Too nniiRerpn. ''Shortly nftcr'thla' Commodore 8chley nnd his staff, 'the captain and myself, went down -to tbfi conning tower on. the forward tulrtocu-lnch turret. Commodore Schloy, Commander Schroedcr, I think Commodore Schley's personal staff, and myself wero standing as the ship was standing, In toward the cntronce.( Commodoro Schley laid, In my hoarlng and presence: 'Gen tlemen, we are verif conspicuous objects here In white. I think -we -had .better get out of this.' Commodore Schley left the forwurd llilrtcoii-lnch, turret and took his place on the email platform, on the lea aide of the conning towor." Captain Lemly At what stage of tho ac tion wan this? "As wo wero steaming In toward tho en trance before wo had turned to ,the west ward." Captain Lemly Dli, you hear any further conversation? "I heard tho conversation when Commo doro Schley was leaving tho ship, In which ho stated that ho was sntlBfled with tho recounotsiance thnt ho hnd made In draw ing tho flro of the batteries, or In words to that effect." Captain Lemly What vynn tho bearing and manner of Commodore Schloy during tho engagement of May 31, to which you have already referred? "His bearing and manner was that of n mnn who wnn suffering under extreme mentnl excltcmont; of una who had a dis agreeable duty to perform and performod It reluctantly and tried to get through with It as soon an ha could," Mr. Bayner then began hla cross-examination. "Who was the captain, of your ship?" he nsked. 4 . "Francis J. Hlgglnson." Not I. Ike llltf Innoii'n llrport, "I want to read you what Cnptaln Hlg glnson says about Commodoro Schley's bearing and manner npon thnt' occasion. Ho says: 'His manner was that cif a com-mander-of-chlef.' lie left a different lm presslon In your mind from what he left on Captain Hlgglrison's mind 'then?" "Apparently." "Had Captain Hlgglnson opportunity to observa hint on thu oc;alpn?" . Wot as well as i'dld." ' .' 'Why was that?" "Ilecnuso Captain Hlgglnson was In the conning tower and I was outside," "Did not Captain Hljjlnion have any THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TI IV USD AY, .OCTOBER 10, 1901. conversations with the commodore nt that time?" From tlmo lo time, yes." I "What do you mean by 'mental excite ment ? " "I quoted conversations that I had. The first thing was tho apparent nnxlcty of Commodoro Scblcy nbout Uflng the con ning toner; secondly, his stating thnt at a distance of Ave to six miles men standing on the forward thlrtcen-lnch turret wero conspicuous objects." "Old the commodore use tho conning tower?" "I did not see the commodore go Into tho conning tower. To the best of my knowl edge and belief ho did not. Ho was out side the conning tower and between tho conning towel nnd the heavy plate that protects tho manhole In tho conning towor. My preconceived Idea of Commodore Schley previous to thnt occasion was so entirely different from the Impression I received on that day I concluded that he certainly was under a tremendous mental strain." One Kind f Mentnl Xtrnln. "Hnvo you over bwn tinder any mentnl strnln in time of battle?" "I have been senred." "Havo you any other facts from which you base your stntement to the court that he was laboring under mental excitement, except the fncttt which you hnvo given?" "Yes, When Commodore Schley enmc on board Massachusetts he stated In distinct terms thnt he wns going In to destroy Colon, Colon wns not destroyed. When ho left tho ship he called It n 'recontinlnancc,' draw ing tho fire of tho batteries and dovcloplng their weakness or strength." "Do you gnther from that, that he wm laboring under great mental cxcltcniiut?" "From that nnd from clrcumstnnces I havo already stntcd from my observation of him from tho time he came on board the sb!;i until be left." "Suppose you were made aware of the fact thut when ho entered thnt engage ment ho wns under tho regulations of tho nnvy not ti engage shore batteries if there wnn nny dnnger of tho shore batteries crippling the shlpa, would you say, If you knew of thnt, thnt ho was still laboring under great mental excitement?" "I cannot answer that." Captain Lemly objected to the Introduc tion of the Navy department's orders ns evidence, but tho court decided thnt could be put In, .Mr. Hnyncr then naked con cerning the weather on tho trln from Clen fucgos, nnd tho witness snld thnt on Mnv 23 It had been what Is called "dirty." There was nn eastern wind nnd a moderate aca rough for small vessels. 4 hli ore lluttcrlen Impotent. Referring to tho Spnnlsh shore batteries at Snntlngn, Commander Potts said thev would havo been no mennco to nrmored ships passing them. At the suggestion of Judgo Advocate Lemly, and In accordance with tho decision of tho court, Mr. Itaynor hero formally Introduced as evidence the order from the Nnvy depnrtmcnt concerning the exposure of the Amerlcnn ships to the flro of tho thoro battery. The order Is that Issued by Secretary Long, April 6, 1S08. and di rected to Admiral Sampson. Ilefcrrlng to tho rango of tho guns for thnt day Commander Potts said the range given previous to entering the engagement was 7,000 yards, but he had Increased It to 7.S00 yards, then to 9,000 yards and finally to 10,000 yards. Only one Hhot which had been fired nt tho American fleot had Impressed him ns being nt nil danger ous. That fell near Massachusetts. Soon after thnt the commodoro hnd given tho order, "Put your helm to Btnrboard nnd let us got out of this." He snid ho hnd socn no shore batteries at Clenfuegos. .Commander Potts was then excusad and Lieutenant Lelpcr called. Ho served on New OrlennH during the Spanish war nnd told of the participation of that vessel In the bombardment of Colon May 31, Ho described thnt engagement, nnylng thnt tho first shot to Massachusetts hnd fallen out side of Morro nnd, notwithstanding tho rnnge wns Increased, nil the shots fell short of Colon, Thero were, he nald, no orders either to llro at or to make observations of the batteries. Wrnl; I'lrr. But notwithstanding thin, he did llro nt tho eastern batteries on bin own responsi bility. Ho hnd personally aimed the gun, but the distance was bo great that only the red line of earth could be seen; neither gunn nor men wero discernible. Ouo shot from tho enemy fell thirty or forty yards from Now Orleans. The projectile was no small ho hud been surprised that It reached such a range. All told, the firing of his vessel upon Colon hnd not consumed moro than nix minutes. He thought nil tbe shots from the Amerlcnn ships hnd fallen short of Colon. Tho witness nald he hnd seen no evidence of tho prosenco of largo or power ful guns In the shore batteries and was of tho opinion thoro wero nono to exceed six Inchon In caliber. Tho witness nald that ho had Bccured his most nccurato Idea of the strength of tho shore batteries by the fact that on June 11 New Orleans hnd approached to within 1,650 yards of them, remaining for twenty minutes nnd silencing them after four or five minutes.

Helen I'rancea Huntington of Oalnes vlllo, Oa., nays: "Just n word of commen dation concerning Urape-Nutn which I have found to bo tho most wholesome, nourish ing and appetizing food that has ever come to my knowledge, I am not a dyspeptic, but being con stantly engaged tu severe brain work I found that I did not thrive on ordinary dle; even a inoderato dinner dulled mv brain so ns to be practically incapable of critical work. I tried meat-Juice, pepto nolds, the two meal system of light break fast nnd no supper which brought on nerv ous depletion nnd sleeplessness, no 1 re sorted to one nnd nnother of the various health-foods which all seemed allko taste less p.ud valueless as a brain food, until quite by chance, I had a dish nt Orane Nuts food nerved as a dessert. I liked It bo well that I began to use It dally, for supper four teaspoonsful In n nnucer of hot milk, eaten before It dissolves to inushl nefs, TIiIb point should bo remembered as, after a certain time, evaporation seems to affect the sweet nutty flavor of tho food as In tho case of certain flno-flavorcd fruits. Tho result In my caBn was simply as tonlihlng. I had no desire whatever for sweet pastrys, meats, or In fact anything else; and my brain was as clear and actlvu at night ns on awaking from a long, re freshing sleep, Tho peculiar advantage about Orape-Nuts fopd Is that It uupplles tho nutritive qualities of a varied diet without the bad results of heavy eating, I cheerfully rec ommend Its usn to all lira In workers, If not ns nn exclusive diet, certainly for the last meal of the day, 1 always take It with me when traveling, which saves a I deal of annoyance and discomfort."
