yY1ASHINGTON, Dec. 13.-The re-
~ port of the schley Court of In
W quiry shows that the majority
is against the accused Rear Admiral or
several important points. Rear Admir-
also Benham and Ramsay find against
schley on the following grounds:
That schley did not proceed to Glen
fuegos from Key West aud maintain as
'close blockade as possible.
He did not endeavor to obtain informa-
ton as to the supposed presence of the
Spanish feet at CienfuegOs.
He did not proceed to Santiago with all
possible dispatch. and did not dispose of
his ships while going so as to intercept
The enemy coming west
He should not have delayed the squad
ron for the Eagle.
Admiral Dewey sustains Rear Ad-
miraI Schley on the appended counts:
That the passage from Key West to
Cienfuegos was made with all possible
dispatch in view of the Importance o.
saving coal.
The Cienfuegos blockade was effective.
The A5ula was permitted to enter Glen
fuegos haTbor in the hope that she would
bring news when she came out about the
Spanish feet.
The passage from Cienfuegos to off
Santiago was made with all possible dis
patch while keeping the squadron as a
unit.
The blockade of Santiago was effec-
tive.
Schley Is entitled to all the credit Of
the battle of July 3, as he was the senior
officer in command
The following are points agreed upon
by the whole court:
That Schley did not obey the depart
ment's order of May % to go with all
haste 10 Santiago. find if the Spanish
feet was there and not leave without
decisive action. He d:d not endeavor to
capture or destroy the Spanish fleet at
the mouth of the ha!bor May Is and %.
He did not use his utmost endeayor
to destroy the Colon while anchored at
the mouth of the harbor on May 80
The effect of the loop of the Brooklyn
was to lose the distance and position of
the Viscaya and Colon. The loop was
made to avoid dangerous proximity with
the Spanish fleet. and it caused the
Texas to stop ana back her engines.

AFTER THE VERDICT.

! WASHINGTON, Dec. 14.-Admira1
Schley's mail has been steadily grow
ing lately since it became known thai
the report of the court of inquiry was
approaching completion. He has re-
ceived a number of offers to go on the
lecture platform. One proposition was
a fixed price of $500 a night for forty
nights. Admiral Schley politely declin-
! ed this and all other offers.
NEW YORK. Dec. I4.-Captain Par
ker. of Admiral Schley's counsel, was
told early this morning of the purport
of the two Schley reports. He said:
Admiral Dewey, better than any one
else in the world, was qualified to judge
this case. He is the one man living, be-
side Admiral Sehley, who conducted a
campaign and fought a bate with
modern ships. under modern conditions.
He probably found there was differ
ence between theory and practice, and
judged Schley in the light of his own
experience. The two other members of
the court were high minded men of the
highest character, and men who would
not misjudge knowingly or willingly.
They never had the experience the Ad-
miral had had. and PROBABLY did not see
things in the same light as he did. We
shall leave the matter to the Judgment
Of: he people of the country. confident
that in the just popular mind the find
ings of Admiral Dewey will be sustain
ed
Captain Parker seemed almost as
much pleased that Admiral Dewey had
sustained Rear Admiral Schley as if
the court had been unanimous in the
verdict that he dewey rendered.
Interviews with Congressman and
Senators show a general feeling in IA
vor of Schley. He may receive vote of
confidence.

the afternoon. The work she had done
was somewhat painful and her nerves
were considerably unstrung when it
was finished. AS a means Of restoring
her to her normal neuretic condition,
the dentist, just before she left his Office,
gave her fifteen strychnine pellets, with
instructions to take one whenever she
felt any necessity for doing so.
Arriving at her hotel, the prima
donna, acting presumably on the theory
that fifteen pellets would do fifteen times
as much good as one pellet, swallowed
the whole number that had been given
her-an equivalent of nine grains Of
strychnine. She then lay down upon the
bed and was soon in a comatose con-
dltion. A little while later her maid
came into the room and her attention
was at once attracted by the unusual

ALSO BROKE DOUBLE CENTURY

ALSO BROKE DOUBLE CENTURY

1.-The first triple century record to be
made over the Mortified course was
completed yesterday afternoon by James
McIlrath cycling editor Of the G o b e
1t was just o'clock yesterday morning
when Mr.. McIlratfl, accompanied by his
wife, left Rice park to make the third
century, and at exactly two minutes
of o'clock yesterday afternoon he was
back at Rice park, having established
q record over this course for triple
century and also winning the handsome
gold medal offered by A. L. Mace the
first of the year to the first cyclist to
establish the record.
Mr.. McIlrath was in very good condi-
ton, considering the roughness of the
road, when he arrived here yesterday
afternoon. The only accident that befeI
him on his last trip was when he ran
over a chicken near Mortified and took
a header. His knee was bruised some
what by the fall, but outside of this ne
had a very good trip, Mrs. McIlrath,
who is also an enthusiastic cyclist, paced
her husband as far as Castle Rock,
where she rested until he came back
on the return trip. She paced him back
to st. Paul. where he arrived sixty-two
minutes sooner than the time allowed
in which to make the record.
The entire triple century was made
in 81 hours and So minutes. OF this,
however only q hours and 81 minutes
was actual riding time.
Mr.. McIlrath broke the double cen
fury record by twenty-seven minutes, as
was stated in yesterday morning 8
G l o b e. The last century was made in
10 hours and IS minutes.
The high wind yesterday made the last
century great deal harder to make
than the first two.

A decision as to what constitutes libel
lous publication" In contemplation Of
law has recently been handed down by
the Maryland cour Of appeals, which
should lead persons Employing private
amanuenses and stenographers to use
great care as to the subject matter Of
q dictated letter According to this de-
cision, the first judicial deliverance of
state court of last resort deciding the
precise point, tho publication of letter
dictated and typewriter containing libel
lous matter is legally complete, although
1t contents have not been made known
to any person other than the stenograp-
her. Tie court ruled:
Neither the prevalence Of any business
business which ccnpels resort to stenO-
graphic assistance can make that legal
which is illegal. nor make that innocent
which would otherwise be actionabie. Nor
can the fact that the stenographer is
under contractual or moral obligation to
regard all his employ ers communications
as confidential alter the reason of the
matter.
Under the ruling. Publicity w!ttdn the
meaning and intent Of the libel law of
Maryland Is sufficiently accomplished
when the objecttt nable matter Is dictated
