DlNtnni'i' from Ppntilnli Nlilpn.
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

troduce certain signals which had passed

Dee, Oct. P, 1901.
of July 3, IS!. Captain Lemly made Imme
diate objection and Mr. llayner presented
nn earnest plea to be allowed to read tho
signals. 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.
Lieutenant Lelpcr wan still on the stand
when the court adjourned for the day.

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

brain so ns to be practically incapable of
critical work. I tried meat-Juice, pepto

fast nnd no supper which brought on nerv

sorted to one nnd nnother of the various
health-foods which all seemed allko taste

quite by chance, I had a dish nt Orane

hnd gained n 'hold uon the patient, nnd.
second, whether the same remVdy would be
bcneflclnl In nil cases.
Without oNcept'lon, the physlelarin Inter

when nbt tod fnr ndvanceri; 'Insomnia, rhcii
hiatlsm, Indigestion, resulting, ns It rndst
frequently does, from deranged ncrvon,
dltzy headaches,' nnd most liver nnd kidney
complaints, were absolutely curable.
But tho ntinwer to tho Teeond question
