The demand of Schley that his record
be cleared will cost the government at
least $4,000. While part of this sum
will have been expended in the fitting up
of the court of inquiry the major portion
will go to the printers and the witnesses.
A stenographic report of every word ut
tered by the court of inquiry will be kept.
A large staff of stenographers has been
secured and as soon as the testimony has
been transcribed it will be rushed over
to the government printing office and put
into type by the same men who set up
the Congressional Record when Congress
is in session. The experts in the printing
Office estimate that it will cost about 500
night to get the testimony out on time
AS it is expected that the court will be
N session a least a month, it will be seen
what an important item in the expense
account will be the printing bill.
The witnesses summoned come from
all parts of the world. Lieutenant Com
mander Seaton Schroeder, for instance,
was governor of Guam when summoned
to appear before the court of inquiry. He
as well as all other witnesses will be al
lowed a mileage of 5 cents a mile, be-
sides the $1.50 per day witness fee. 1t
is estimated that witnesses expense ac-
count will amount to nearly $1,000 a
day.
