THE DEFENSE BEGUN

Patriotic O0icer-Cuban
Pilot Called,

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.--In the
Schley court Of inquiry yesterday
Judge Advocate Lemly concluded pres
entation of testimony for the govern
mcnt, and the first of Admiral Schley's
witnesses was introduced.
Captain Francis A. Cook who COM
manded Admiral then COMMODORE
Schley's flagship, the Brooklyn, dur
ing the Santiago campaign and who
acted, though unofficially, In the ca
pacity of chief of staff for the COM
modore, was on the witness stand the
greater part of the day. He was fol-
lowed by Lieutenant Commander Will
liam II. Fullam. who was senior watch
officer on the New Orleans during the
Spanish war, and former Lieutenant
Joseph Beale, who, as an officer on
the Harvard, translated the cipher DIS
patches between Commodore Schley
and the navy department carried by
that vessel Among these dispatches
was that sent by Commodore Schley
May %, expressing his regret at not
being able to obey the orders OF the
department and explaining the reason
why he could not do SO. There are
some verbal discrepancies between the
original draft f this dispatch and the
official print o it, and these Mr.. Beale
explained. Lii utenant Beale was the
last Of the government witnesses, al
though Captain Lemly explained that
he would reserve the right to call 9th
ers if reason should demand that he
do so.
He had no sooner retired than the
first witness for Admiral Schley was
called. This proved to be the Cuban
pilot Edwardo Nunez, who told Schlcy
on May 26, 1898 that he did not be-
lieve the Spanish fleet under Cervera
was in the harbor at Santiago.
Captain Cooks testimony was re-
view Of the entire campaign after Ger
veras fleet, beginning with the de-
parture of the flying squadron from
Key West Oh May 10 and concluding
with the battle off Santiago July 3.
He said that at first ii had been bcliev-
ed by both Sampson and Schley that
the Spanish fleet was in the harbor at
Cienfuegos and that no information to
the contrary had been conveyed to
Commodore Schley until the arrival Of
Captain McCala on May "a: that it
was Commodore Schley's expectation
to meet the Spaniards in the open sea,
and his constant care was to have coal
enough for such emergency. He gave
particulars concerning the retrograde
movement and explained the Brooklyn
loop in connection with graphic ac-
count of the engagement on July g.
Asked for an opinion as to Admiral
Schley's bearing as commanding Of
fccr, he said. Il always regarded him
as an enthusiastically brave and patri-
otto officer
