modore Schley had, he said, told him
that his purpose was to ascertain what
the batteries were. He said he had been
with Lieutenant Potts, on the Massachu-
sets, on that day, and had not heard
any conversation between that officer
and Commodore Schley.
The witness described the engagement
of July I'd. After stating the preliminary
Incidents he said:
II was in my room when I heard the
cry of the executive officer, Clear ship

and ran to the quarterback. / looked
up aloft to see if the prescribed signal,

that it was. l met the Commodore on
the quarterback. He directed the signal
to close in, all OF which was done From
my position 1 had q good view of the
entrance. Our ship was heading at the
time, should say, to the westward of
north, not on her regular heading which
was about northeast by north. The en-
gines had been started by the time / got
on deck, and she was gaining way, and
was swinging toward the enemy. The
first vessel, which proved to be the flag
ship Maria Teresa came out. She was
directly on our bearing from the entrance
TO the port.
LAS the ship swung toward the Teresa
she swung slowly around. To me- the
Teresa appeared to not hold an exactly
steady course, and the helm of our ship
was eased one way or the other to keep
our ram pointing toward the Teresa. The
Teresa shortly turned squarely toward
the westward, and as she did so l got
a view of the next ship following in her
wake. It was by observation that the
Brooklyn was then held up TO meet the
second ship approaching. of course, we
ported helm.
THE second ship passed in the wake
of the first one, and / said to the Com
modore that It looked as If the second
one was going to try to ram us. He, 1
think, assented. At any rate, the Brook
Ign was held toward her, and she appear
ed to me to be uncertain in her course.
The Brooklyn was handled by the cap
tain and quartermaster. She turned aft
er she had passed to the southwark of
the Teresa's wake, and followed her, and
then 1t was generally remarked on the
tower bridge they were all going to try
and escape to the westward"

COOK MADE
THE LOOP
Continued from page u

The list for the day included Lieuten-
ant Commander N E. Mason, executive
officer of the Brooklyn; Lieutenant Com
mander T. D. Griffin, who had charge
of the powder division of Admiral
Schley's flagship, and Lieutenants Ed
ward Simpson, who was in charge of the
S-inch turret of the Brooklyn and opened
fire on the Spaniards when they came
out of the harbor at Santiago; Charles
Webster and Edward McCauley, the for
mer being a watch officer and the latter
signal officer on the Brooklyn.
1t was the understanding that If this
list could not be completed today the
officers named should come on tomorrow.
Admiral Schley thinks it quite prob
able that the presentation of his testi-
mony in his behalf can be completed this
week and next He will be the last of
the witnesses to be heard, and will make
a review of the entire campaign, cover
ing the points in controversy.
Eduardo NUnez the Cuban pilot, was
among those who We're called to correct
former testimony. He added to his
statement OF yesterday that he had seen
the Brooklyn firing on May 81 the day
of the bombardment of the Colon, where
as the records show that that vessel was
at that time coaling and did not particl-
pate in the engagement. He also made
a correction in his former statement con-
corning his conversation with Commodore
Schley on first meeting him. His cor
reCted statement of that incident was
presented by his interpreter in written
form and read as follows;
During the conversation | had with
Commodore Schley I said, not that the
water was not deep enough, but that III

had in Kingston. Jamaica, in regard to
the dimensions of the Spanish ships, they
were of such large size that they could
not get into the harbor in consideration
/ of the narrowness of the chanel and the
quick turn they had to make at the Dia-
r1ond shoal in front of the entrance, and
! / still believe that vessels of such size
cannot enter Santiago not being under
the most favorable conditions of wealth
er | also was asked by Admiral Schiey
if l thought his flagship could enter the
ha rbor. and / answered him that l did
not consider it advisable, for the reason
before mentioned. and because there

torpedo lines across the entrance.

, oranda he said that it had been brought
to Commodore Schley by the Hawk and
by no other vessel to his knowledge.
Commander Sears gave a detailed ac-
count of the encounter with the British
steamer Adula, the examination on this
point being as follows:
Now, coming to Cienfuegos give US
the principal incidents that took place
while the fleet lay off Cienfuegos and
are familiar. the coming in of the Adu-
Ia"
THE Adula arrived of the port there
and was boarded at first under orders
from Commodore Schley by the Castine,
and after Captain Berry of the Castine
had made his report to the Commodore
the Commodore sent one of the officers
of the Brooklyn aboard her After he
had returned and made report. the Com
modore directed me to go aboard the
Adula and see if 1 could contrive some
manner of inducing the captain of the
Adula, an Englishman, to put himself
out a little to tell us something about
what was going on inside of C1enfuegos.
The captain said, of course. he would be
very glad to do it, as he was coming
under some authority from our fleet in
Jamaica He suggested that when he
came out on the next day we should
| bring him to with a shot that anybody
observing 1t from shore would see that
he was acting under force, and that any
body who could speak Spanish could find
out all they pleased from the refugees
she had on board"
With what understanding did they go
into the port?"
! That he was to come out the next day
and it would be possible for us to set
! inf in,
be very easy to do so"
| Did he come out the next day?'
| He did not"
| The witness also stated that Commo-
dore Schley had told him that Captain
! McCalla had brought a code of signals
for communication with the insurgents
on shore near Cienfuegos.
| Describing the blockade of Cienfuegos,
! Commander Sears stated that it had been
maintained from one TO four miles out,
and that the Dupont was stationed in
side with instructions to keep close in
to the mouth of the harbor, and main
tain a careful watch, reporting any sus-
ipicioUs incidents.
/ The witness, in giving the details of
! the cruise from Cieufuegos to Santiago,
said the weather was bosterous with a
| heavy sea, and that coaling at sea would
not have been safe before May q, when
lit was undertaken. He also said that
on this voyage the squadron had been
delayed by the small boats, and that the
/ ships had also been slowed up on one
occasion. when a merchant vessel was
sighted; also that the collier had to stop
several times TO make repairs to her ma
| chinery.
! With reference to the blockade at San
tiago, the witness said that it had been
maintained at varying distances of from
three to six miles In thick weather and
at night the distance was less than in
fair weather and in the day time.
! The witness said the reconnaissance OF
May 81, when the Colon was fired upon

a cigar which we Internationally back

like the cigars made by manufacturers
generally. 1t is altogether different.
