ness had first come into contact with
the flying squadron ON May 10, 1898
When he was proceeding nom the
south coast OF Cuba TO Key West he
met the squadron on it's way to Cuba.
Witness said he had not been asked
60 come aboard the Brooklyn for the
purpose Of making a report on condt
iions in Cuba. but had made full re
port TO Captain Chadwick, Admiral
SIMPSONS chief of staff. when he ars
rived at Key West. On this point he
said:
In addition to written reports or dis
patches which carried, explained to
the chief of stan the secret code which
| had established with the Cubans
near Cienfuegos. That was not done
until heard that Commodore Schley
was proceeding to Cienfuegos."
ITO whom. according to the best Of
your recollection. did you communicate
that secret code Of signals?" asked Mr.
Rayner
Code Only Told to Chadwick.
"Only to Captain Chadwick. chief OF
stan was the reply.
Captain McCalla next told Of his re.
turn to Cienfuegos on the oath Of
May with dispatches for Admiral
Schley. He said:
1T had been reported authoritative.
ly in Key West on the 18th Of MAY.
and when | sailed on the afternoon
of the 2lst Of May, that the Spanish
squadron was still at Santiago"
And you communicated that infor.
nation to Commodore Schley yer.
bally?"
Commodore schley told me he
thought the Spanish squadron was in
Cienfuegos; that he had received news.
papers from the steamer Adula some
days previous; that one Of the news.
papers contained a cable dispatch from
Santiago. and from that he gathered
that the Spanish force under Admiral
Cervera might have sailed from San
tiago in time to reach Cienfuegos Just
before the arrival of the force under
his command. | said that had brought
arms ammunition and dynamite for
the Cuban camp to the westward. and
that if he would let me go would find
out at once whether they were in
Cienfuegos. lie Immediately as
sented"
Mocalla Tells About cervera.
Captain McCalla then related how
he had gone ashore near Cienfuegos
and found the Cubans drawn up in
line. He gave them food and ammuni-
tion. I'VE found. he added, chat Ger
vera was not inside the harbor, and
that in fact the situation in Cienfue-
gos was exactly as 1t was when I left
It on the 10th of the same month"
Captain McCalla said he sent the IN
formation obtained to Admiral Schley
by the Eagle, signaling that vessel to
proceed at full speed and report to the
Brooklyn that Cervera was not in Glen
fuegos Il followed on board the Mar
blehead, and of course confirmed to
Admiral Schley the fact that Admiral
Cervera's fleet was not in Cienfuegos.

Instructions for Commodore Schley.
During the conversation the commo-
dore asked me to read the instructions.
and after had read them he asked mo
what / thought he had better do. Pre-
vious TO this he had said that he could
not coal off Santiago. that the English
had demonstrated that ships could not
coal at sea. He also said that If he
returned TO Key West he would bo
court-martialed. II was after this that
he handed ME the orders, which 7

THEY WAN CHEApER COAL
Wilmington People Pay Big Price
for Fuel


AS a consequence OF an article which
recently appeared In the Evening

city with other places. a number OF
persons are agitatng the question OF
the Wilmington Labor League taking
up the NATTER and going into the coal
business on the cooperative basis.
Several coal dealers have been seen
and on being asked why the price
coal is higher than in other cities in
this vicinity, said that railroad com
panies charged fifteen cents more to de-
liver coal here than to deliver It in
Philadelphia.
The excuse given for the fact that
coal can be bought cheaper down the
State Is that railroad companies dis
criminate in freight rates against VIII
