CONSIDERING THE EVIDENCE.
The schIey Court of Inquiry Holds Its First
Secret Session.

Washington, Nov. IA. At 10
O'Clock today, Admiral Dewey and
Rear Admirals Benham and Ramsey,
composing the Schley- court Of in
quiry, met at the quarters in the Nc
Lean building behind closed, doors,
and began thes discussion and con-
sideration of the evidence brought
forward in the investigation conclud-
ed last week. The sittings of the
court are to be strictly secret. It's
present plan is to hold daily sittings
from 10 to 1890 O'Clock, adjourning
at the latter hour for the day, though
this arrangement may be changed as
the work of the body progresses.
Admiral Dewey said after today S
session that as yet he could not fore
tell how long it would be before the
court would be ready with its find
ings He pointed out that it had
taken nearly eight weeks of searching
examination to produce the material
in hand, and that the court would
not be expected to draw its conclu.
sions in hurry. When asked if the
work was divided in the interest oi
l-expediency among the members .ol
the court, the admiral said: No
we are working together as court
should. i'e
