FIRST REPORT REJECTED.
After recess Captain Lemly laid before
the court Admiral Schley's press copy book
containing a copy OF his letter embracing
his first report 10 Admiral Sampson OF the
battle OF Santiago, which had been re-
turned. and there was contention between
counsel as to the admissibillty OF the docu-
ment as evidence. The decision of the
court was TO the effect that the report
could not be read aloud and was announced
through Admiral Dewey follows: The
court holds that there is no objection to the
witness refreshing his memory from the
letter, but that he cannot read II aloud
AT this point there was prolonged ana
at times quite sharp controversy between
Captain Lemly and Mr.. Rayner- II soon
developed that the preliminary report re-
COMMODORE Schley had prepared OF the
events of July and had taken on board
the flagship New York and delivered 10
Admiral Sampson after the battle; but
which the commander-in-chief had re-
turned to him.
When Admiral Schley resumed his testi-
mony he recounted his conversation with
Admiral Sampson, who. he said. handed
the letter back 10 him with the statement
that he (SampsOn) was commandment chief
and that he tSchley) had omitted a very
important detail in the report, in that it
failed to show the presence of the New
York. Il felt at that time Admiral
Schley went on, that the victory was big
enough for all. and | made this (his report
of the battle that had been published) out
of generosity and because / knew that if
the New York had been present she would
have done good work any of the
