Washington, Oct. 15.-The presenta- continued today in the court of inquiry. Lieutenant Commander Sears, Schley's flag officer on the Brooklyn. testified to many details connected with the campaign, and was followed by oth er officers of the Brooklyn.
 Schley thinks it probable that his presentation will be completed this week He will be the last witness heard.
 Commander Sears gave a detailed ac- count of the cruise of the flying squad ron, the blockade of Santiago and the battle of Santiago. His testimony cov- cred the same ground as did that If Captain Cook.
 Captain Cook was on the stand a short while to correct his former testi- mony. Several questions were aske1 by the court One of these related spe- officially to the conduct of Schley n battle. Cook replied: T cannot imag- inc conduct more admirable. He was cool. brave and enthusiastic from the beginning to the end of the action" Commander Sears when questioned m the same points by counsef said: Ills bearing was a model for anybody and worthy of mention at all times. Under fire his faculties, if possible. were clear CT than at any other time"
 Asked if Schley exposed himself to danger. he replied: He was always putting himself in exposed positions. I requested him many times not 70 expose himself. as it was useless
 The only witness examined in detail was Lieutenant Commander Sears. He gave a detailed account of the entire campaign. including the brief siege or Cienfuegcs. the retrograde movement of the squadron, the search for coal. the blockade of Santiago. the recon nOissance of the Santiago shore batter ies, the bombardment or the Colon and the battle of Santiago, when the Span iards were destroyed. He placed the distance of the blockading line at Cier- fuegOs at from one to four miles and at SantiaOo from three to six. He ex- pressed an opinion that in the battle of July 3 1t had been the intention of the Vizcaya to ram the Brooklyn
 Rayner sought to introduce the brief report of the battle of Santiago which Schley prepared for transmission to the secretary of the navy. It was stat ed that Sears had taken this dispatch ashore to be cabled to the secretary. but that it never reached that official. The dispatch was ruled out on the ground that it was not received as an official communication. It was not read in court but the following is copy of it; Secretary of the Navy: The Span ish squadron came out of Santiago harbor this morning at nine thirty and were all captured or destroyed in . running fight westward in three and a half hours There were very few casualties on our side. Ellis, chief yeOman. was killed. and one man wounded on the Brooklyn. The reports of the other ships are not in. Tie commander in chief is now superin- tending the transfer of the prisoners from the Colon, which surrendered To the Brooklyn and Oregon. There are about 1000 prisoners in all, including the Spanish admiral. The victory was complete. Details later"

San Francisco, Oct. 15.-The trouble some question of marriage and divorce was set at rest for another three years today by the action of the house of deputies of the triennial Episcopal con vention rejecting both the proposed cancns on the subject which were passed by the house of bishops. The greatest fight of the convention has been over section f of canon 36 virtu- ally forbidding the remarriage of ii- vorced persons by a priest of the church
 This as passed by the house of bish- ops had been adopted by a yea and nay vote of the committee of the whole of the house of deputies. When the com rnittee rose and reported it's work to taken, not only on the troublesome fourth section. but on the entire canon which was rejected as a whole Canon 3I. which provides for disciplining per sons marrying again after being di- vorced, met q similar fate
 The house of deputies passed ar amendment to article 10. permitting modified forms of worship, which is m spirit similar to the famous Hunting ton amendment recently defeated
 The following is the vote by which the section of the canon forbidding the remarriage of divorced persons was re- jected: Cierical-Aye 30. no 19 divided 10; lay-Aye 15. no 24 divided g.

SAHUARO SILVER
Specimens Frcm the New Strike Now
 cd Exhibition.

Dick Hall has sent to the board of trade some specimens of the ricn silver ore recently discovered on the Sahuaro property, two miles from Wickenburg The ore at first sight would not attract attention. but a careful investigation Of it srouses dreams of untold wealth at once. It is heavily copper stained but that signifies nothing, as a good part of the ore in this country has the copper color. and in the specimens oa exhibition the color Is not particularly alluring. But all parts of the rock not showing a copper color are q dark brown. almost black. There is nothing shiny about it and nothing that looks like silver to the ordinary mortal. But when knife blade is brought into ac- tion the black surface is found to be a coating of horn silver. so rich it can be shaved off like lead from a piece of lead pipe.
 MT. Hall says in his letter that the ore runs from ten to forty per cent in copper. and some of it as high as $500 ounces in silver The specimens sent in, he declares, are not picked speci- mems, as there is an unknown quantity of the same sort of rock The ledge at the surface exposure, after clearing on the dirt and loose ground. is sixty feet wide, and the specimens on exhibition came from about a foot below the surface.
 It is understood the owners have re- fused a cash offer of S60,OoO for it. The specimens shown are certainly the real thing. and if the ore body maintains its richness as it goes down it is be- yond question one of the biggest things in any country. As 1t is but two miles from Wickenburg. it means everything for the future of that camp.

CITY HALL AND HEALTH BOARD TROUBLE

In the opinion of Republicans who always
hopeful under defeat the disposition of the Hud-
son County Democrats to get into squabbes among
themselves upon slight provocaton is likely TO be
OF decided advantage to the Republicans in the ap-
preaching campaign The trouble between the City
Hall clerks and the Jersey City Health Board is
causing much bitterness and although the differ
ences are purely family quarrel. they not OF
the kind that strengthen the party organization.
since underlying them the question Of the conduct
or municipal affairs from a business standpoint
Is constantly made manifest. The debt of Jersey
CITY is the cause of much heartburning among the
taxpayers, and anything which will be convincing
that the Democrats interested in pro-
Vldlng places and salaries for the party workers
than they are In relieving the city of its burden
some debt the Republicans believe must work TO
their advantage. These Republicans argue that
the present trouble between Democrats in Jersey
City is sure to extend further than intended
and that ii will ultima tey afford the people a
glimpse of how their public affairs managed
1T would not be surprising Republican lawyer
remarked on Saturday, IF this quarrel between DR.
Mciill and the City Hall operatives resulted the
revelation that there is plenty of for
failing expenses in the management OF municipal
affairs
