This Disagrees with Hanna.

Mr.. Hanna objected to Mr.. Rayner's
methods of questioning, especially to his
characterization of Captain Harbers tes-
timony as wrong when Captain Harber
had said distinctly that he only spoke from
his best recollection.
This hes aid, lis an indirect impeach-

Mr.. Rayner again insisted that he had
intended only to bring out the facts.
Mr.. Hanna asked what steps had been
taken while the flying squadron was off
C1enfuegos to ascertain if the Spanish
fleet was inside the harbor there.
None that I knew Of"
WAS there any effort to destroy the
shore batteries there?''
The witness replied that he knew Of
none. He said, replying to a question by
Mr.. Rayner, that vessels in the inside
harbor could not have been discerned
from the outside.
Lieutenant Wood was then excused and
