did you give any special 'mstruc-
lions to your captains while making
this passage from Cienfuegos to San
tiago in regard to looking out for the
Spanish feet?"
81 did not give any special instruc-
tons. They had their general instruc-
tons"
I'm your testimony you say you did
not disobey orders when you started
westward because you returned to
your station without further direction.
Am right?"

"On receipt of instructions. Did you
not, nevertheless, leave your station?"
Why He Left Santiago.
eyes, did, for these reasons: Be-
cause Captain Sigsbee, a scout placed
in front of Santiago harbor, informed
me that he did not believe the Span
ish fleet was there. Second, because
Nunez, the pilot, told me he did not
believe the enemy's fleet could enter
the harbor. Third, the order No. Z,
with the accompanying memorandum
in which Admiral Sampson minimized
the Importance Of this squadron being
there and the fact that the depart
ment's telegram, which reached me
on May ~, was so ambiguous in its
terms. It authorized me to coal at
Gonaives, Hayti or at Cape Cruz. Go
naiveS being to the eastward, and
knowing that Admiral Sampson was at
Key Francis, in the Bahama channel,
to the north. It occurred to me that If
the Spanish squadron were entant,
that the proper strategical movement
was to go to the westward and not the
eastward. I was authorized in the
same telegram to move as far west as
Cape Cruz, provided coaling had been
found possible there. did not go to
Cape Cruz, within 80 miles, think.
Now those were the influencing and
the operating motives. I felt that the
move west was strategically the prop
er one, with a determination to coal
as quickly as possible, and that the ef-
ficiency of my squadron as a unit was
only equal to the efficiency of the coal
supply Of the slowest one that COM
posed it. Those were the motives
which caused that movement"
Captain Lemly-"And you were sat
isfied with these without taking any
steps whatever to ascertain if this
order or these reports were correct?'
81 ascertained for myself through
the medium that the department had
placed them there to keep me inform
ed. Those scouts represented very
largely the cavalry of an army and if
they were unreliable they should not
have been placed there. I must have
relied upon what they said"
The Return to Santiago.
The witness was asked whether he
did not steer a westerly course before
and after the interval Of stopping on
May 26 and 27.
NO." replied the admiral, referring
to the Brooklyn's log. 1T shows we

Captain Lemly then asked num-
Der of questions regarding the block
ade of Cienfuegos, but no new facts
were brought out.
Captain Lemly then called the ad-
Brooklyn May "a and asked him
whether these entries in the log did
not show that the ships steamed both
in and out.
YES" replied the witness, "but as
is impossible to tell the distance. We
usually steamed as slowly as possible;

Captain Lemly called the attention
Of the witness to the fact that in his
former testimony he had said that
Lieutenant Wood had reported him
as speaking disrespectfully of Admiral
Sampson, calling him captain.
The admiral replied that he might
have gotten Wood confused with Hood
and upon referring to the court record
he said it was true that Wood had not

The admiral was again questioned
concerning the return of his papers to

Explain 1t.
Washington, Oct. 30.-Judge Advo-
cate Lemly lost no time in beginning
his interrogations of Admiral Schley
after the Schley court of inquiry con-
vened at II o'clock. The first question
of the Judge advocate was in relation
with Admiral Schley's examination in
chief in regard to the meeting with the
Eagle after the flying squadron left
Key West. Admiral Schley, in answer
to questions, replied that the Eagle re-
ported no news.
The judge advocate then jumped to
Cienfuegos, examining him upon his
statement that upon the arrival of the
squadron there the Scorpion was sent
in as picket boat and asked him TO
reconcile that statement with the en-
try in the log of the Scorpion to the
effect that from midnight to 4 a. m.
"drifted in company with the feet for
the remainder of the watch"
The admiral explained that that en-
try did not necessarily Snean that the
Scorpion was absolutely in touch with
the fleet. AS he recalled it, all the
ships were drifting.

cumstances as a picket boat?"
81 did. She was drifting in-shore. +"
