THE SCHLEK COURT OF INQUIRY.
From present appearances and the

court of inquiry, Schley will come off
with flying colors. The great majority
Of the people have already rendered
their opinion which is that SchIey was
the hero Of the naval battle of San
tiago, and that to him properly belong
ed both the honor and the emoluments.
SIMPSONS attempt to steal the honors,
and his actual reception of the emolu-
ments viii be condemned
The naval department has practical
~ charged Schley with disobedience of
orders, with being dilitory In search of
the Spanish feet, and with cowardiee

the Colon as she lay in the entrance to
the harbor, and in the famous loop, of
running away from the enemy. Where
as, he found the Spanish feet, block
AIDED the Spanish feet and was the
principal agent in the destruction of
the Spanish feet.
The evidence thus far shows that the

was not furnished with the McCalla
code Of signals whereby he could COM
municate with the Cuban insurgent
allies on the shore while the feet lay
of Cienfuegos. Furthermore, the evil

Furthermore. they did not explode until
after they had passed through the plate and
into the supposititious fort or battleship
which was protected by the plate.
Then they exploded promptly enough. and
the destruction they wrought was almost
equal to humiliation.
Thus it WAS proved that maximite pro-
1ectiles could do the essential thing in war

his pistol, took aim and fired. NJ. de
Rodays did not fall, but his hand fell
10 his right thigh. Immediately Count
de Dion and Castellane rushed toward
him. The ball had lodged about fifteen
centimeters below the groin. A few
inches higher the wound would have
been fatal.
NJ. de Rodays was carried by De

has received a ball in the thigh and
the Count and journalist have shaken
hands. A reporter of the Call and

the seconds and witnessed the duel
The Pare DIES Princes was the rendez-
vous.
M. de Rodays and his seconds arriv-
ed a few minutes before Count de Cas-
tellane and his friends. Each party
formed a compact little group. Count
de Dion was the first to break the ice.
Going up to NJ. Perivier he said: II
think, sir, we have to toss for places"
M. de Roday's representative won.
The toss then took place for the pistols
to be used, and the lot fell TO those
chosen by Count de Castellane-s sec
onds.
Count de Dion had by universal re-
quest been appointed "direcIeur du
combat" He measured the distance
twenty-five paces-and stuck a stick
at one end of the ground and an UNI
brella at the other.
DE RODAYS FIRES FIRST.
The combatants were then placed
face to face. Both were dressed in
tightly buttoned frock coats, with col
lars raised so as not to show any shirt
or collar, and each wore a silk hat
Count de Dion, when the men were
in position, standing on the further
side opened a box containing tive
loaded pistols, and with his silk hat ir
hand went to NJ. de Rodays first, leav-
ing a weapon in his hand. He ther
crossed the ground and handed Count
