The Court took a recess for luncheon at !
o'clock. 1t reassembled at 2 p. m. and proceeded
10 the barracks. There the survivors Of the
Maine who are confined in the hospital, were
examined.
The fact is becoming more evident as the days
pass that any information direct from members
of the court into the loss of the batte-ship
Maine. and from those appearing before 1t, is
most closely guarded. and that practically no
information which has been presented to the
court has been disclosed. The restrictions are
so severe that the communications between the
naval men who have been befor thee court have
been most guarded.
Naval officers at this station who are not con-

that little testimony has yet been heard tending

mander Sobral obtained considerable promi-
nence here recently by his reported criticism Oh

When this criticism was brought TO the at
tenton Of Sefor Du Bose. who is now the span
ish Charge d'Affaires at Washington, ne imrie-
diately stated that Sobrars connection with
the Legation had ceased; in fact, he had been
recalled some time ago. and therefore Whatever
Sobral had said or would say was as an lndl-
vidual and not as Spanish official.
Lieutenant Commander Sobral denied that he
had been recalled as Naval Attache. and as
serted positively that he still held that osition
He has been in New-York ever since he incl
dent, with the exception Of two short trips out
side which he said were made in the interest
of his country. He called at the ofhce OF the

turn.

were given to Sobral by his friends. He then
admitted that he longer Naval Attache,
but that he going into active duty at nome.
In regard TO his published interviews criticising
the American Navy and stating that he would
probably command the Spanish fleet in Amer
lean waters in the event Of war with Spain, he
said Just before he sailed: Il believe that I
have been somewhat misunderstood but I have
no remorse my conscience is clear. | sail con-
