received yesterday noon from Eagle
River state that persons patrOlling the
lake shore in the vicinity have found
wreckage. presumably from the West
ern Transit line steamer Hudson. This
wreckage consists Of couple Of spars.
hatch covers and quantity Of -four.
The cargo Of the Hudson consisted
largely OF the latter. No bodies have
yet been found. Some Of those who
saw the boat go down Monday morning
say that small boat put off shortly
before she sank. but as no such boat
has been found along the beach the
story is not credited. and it Is thought
that the crew of twenty-five men went

ne HAD PiCKETS OUT AT NIGHT
"TRIP FROM CIENFUEGOS WAS De-
LAYED ny THE SMALLER
CRAFT.
ONLY ONE NEW WITNESS HEARD
COMMANDER SCHROEDER OF THE
MASSACHUSETTS GIVES
DETAILS.

Washington, Sept. "a. Although
every development at the court of in
quiry was not entirely favorable to
Rear Admiral Schley, in the main, re-
suits OF Saturdays session were salts
factory to him and his counsel.
Important points brought out were:
That the blOckading ships never were
a great distance from the harbor: that
a picket line Of the smaller vessels al
ways was on guard at night: that the
signals seen on shore were supposed by
all to be between Spanish forces; that
the shirs We're given orders to coal
where they were; that fuel was abso-
lute!y necessary, and that the slow
time made by the squadron on its way
from CienfuegOs was a result Of the
rough weather.
Faster Voyage Held Possible.
Other features Of the testimony were
the claim that the large vessels could
have made better time toward Santi-
ago by leaving the smaller craft be-
hind, to rejoin the squadron later, and
that Schley's original plan for the at
tack on the Colon was not carried out,
his vessels passing the harbor's mouth
at too great a speed to permit of eff
tect1ve work. Capt. Harder, recalled,
refused to change his statements re-
garding the weather, picket line, and
distance from shore, despite contra die
ton by the logs of several vessels and
by the testimony of other witnesses.
Never Twenty-Five Miles Away.
One of the chief points of interest
was the absolute and unqualified denial
that Commodore Schley with the Fly
ing squadron was at any time during
the blockading operations twenty-five
miles away from the mouth of Santi-
ago harbor. On the contrary, it was
developed that the extreme distance
during the day time was not greater
than seven miles, and during the night
not more than four miles.
Commander Schroeder, now governor
of Guam, who was the chief executive
officer of the Massachusetts during the
war, testified that, in his judgment,
the flying squadron" did not make as
much speed as it was possible to attain
on the sail from Cienfuegos to Santi-
ago, and he further testified that Com
modore Schley had not used sufficient
effort to destroy the Colon as that YES
sci lay within plain sight OF the ships
of the flying squadron for more than
two days.

Washington, SEPT. "a. President

Accompanied by Mr.. Robinson, Mr..
Roosevelt left the Covyles residence
shortly before II o'clock for the Re-

chose as his church home just after the
Inauguration. The president was at

and gloves to match. IIe wore a silk
hat. Reaching the church just before
the hour of worship President Roose-
welt was met at the door by Rev. Jo-

a cordial greeting, to which Mr.. Roose-
welt responded, at the same time intro
ducing Mr.. Robinson. The two We're
then escorted to the presidents pew,

the services and at the close the con-
gregation remained standing until he
and Mr.. Robinson left the edifice.
