time than was AT first supposed. The
lists of witnesses indicate this, and ma
val officers predict that the court will

Stay1un Il lawyrr having offices in the
Johnston building. 80 Broad street,
New York, To represent him before the
Schlcy court should amy accusations
against Admiral Sampson be developed
IN the taking of testimony. Til" navy
department officers decline to make

marine corps who resigned several
years ago to engage in the practice Of
law. He was an assistant in the office
of the Judge advocate general Of the

marine officer and gained a thorough
knowledge Of the procedure of naval
courts. Since his retirement from the
service ne has had considerable prac-
tirc before naval courts martial and in
naval claims cases.
The list of witnesses to be sent to
Admiral Schlry has been prepared by
the judge advocate general. A copy of
the list will be sent to the detail officer
of the bureau of navigation. so that the

br ordered to appear before the court.
