sion, as he had already given the order
to turn the helm to port.
In making the turn which Schley said
was absolutely necessary, he asserted
that the Brooklyn was never more than
600 yards to seward and that during the
turn the helm was always hard aport
and was not eased, but the turn was
made in the shortest possible time.
Taking up the retrograde movement,
Rear Admiral Schley explained that the
Merrimac had broken down, was abso-
lutely unmanageable, and was incapable
Of turning a propeller. They went fur
them westward than Schley intended, as
they had difficulty in making the Yale,
which was towing the Merrimac, under
stand the ardois signal. The Merrimac
and the Texas both sprung a leak, and
this contributed to the difficulties. The
physician on board the Texas recon-
mended that coaling operations be sus-
pended for awhile, as, owing to the in
tense heat, the men were becoming ex-
hausted.
The retrograde movement was made
with view to equalizing the coal of the
ships Of the fleet so as to- be in a better
position when they met the enemy.
SCuley ndQ Deen gwen what was SuppOS-
ed to be authentic formation that the
Spanish fleet was not in Santiago and he
therefore thought the proper movement
was to so west, and not to eastward. as
that would bring him nearer to the mill
tary base at Havana.
The rear admiral then took I'M the
blockade and he said it had been demon
strated it was effective, as it was sue
cessful in preventing the entrance of any
vessel as we'll as the escape of the en-
envy. 1t was always possible for him
to see the shore line, and he said the dis
lance east and west of the harbor was
much nearer than has been testified to
by officers, and that the same is true
regarding the distance from shore.
The action of May 81 was a reconnois-
sance and was intended to deyelop the
strength Of the batteries, and in this was
successful. The primary reason for this
action was not to destroy the Colon. but
If that ship could have been injured bv
shot or two he would have been glad to
have sent shot through the Spaniard
The information furnished BY the NAVY
Department regarding the Notifications
at Santiago was indeterminakie ard con.

went upon the deck of the Brooklyn with
a pair of long glasses in his hand, and
even by the aid Of these he could not see
the New York, it having disappeared In
the distance.
SchIcy Takes Command.
In the morning before the battle be-
gan Schley's orderly had reported that
the signal, Disregard signals from the
flagship" was flown from the halyards of
the New York. In giving his reasons for
being so positive of the absence of the
New York Rear Admiral Schley said his
first act after knowing the enemy was
escaping was to look for the flagship so
as to know how to govern himself, as
he was second in command.
A few moments after the battle began
Schley signaled Follow flag" from the
Brooklyn. This was an order for the
ships of the feet to follow the Brooklyn
and the signal was given to the Oregon
to he transmitted to the other vessels
which could not see the flagship. Schlcy
said the Oregon was already following
the flagship into the battle, and the sig
nal was not intended for the battleship.
Rear Admiral Schley testified that the
Brooklyn did not cross the bow of the
Texas, that the distance between the
two ships was never closer than 600
yards, that there never was any danger
Of the two vessels colliding, and that the
loop was absolutely necessary to prevent
sacrificing the Brooklyn, as, if that ship
had been turned toward the Spaniards in
stead of away from them, the Brooklyn
would have been in dagerous proximity
| to the Spanish torpedo boats.
Turn Made TO Save the Vessel.
Schley turned away from the Span
iards, he said, because it was useless to
sacrifice the Brooklyn, because so much
depended on that ship on the day of the
battle, and, in turning away, he did what
he believed was for the good of the coun-
try, sinking individual considerations on
this occasion. There was distinct move
ment on the part of the Maria Teresa and
the Viscaya, he declared, to ram the
Brooklyn, one Of the Spanish ships be-
ing less than LOO yards from Schley's
| flagship.
So positive was Schley that the Span
iards were going to ram the Brooklyn
that he called to Captain Cook, Look
OUT Cook, they are going to ram you"
Captain Cook was under the same impress

spot, watching the condition of the sea,
and was charged with the responsibility
which always makes one cautious.
Rear Admiral Schley said his memory
was excellent, but he is confident that
Captain Cotton did not deliver dis
patch from Rear Admiral Sampson say
ing the Spaniards were in Santiago. The
admiral did not see it, neither did his sec
rotary or flag lieutenant, and 1t was
strange that none of them knew anything
about it If it had been sent. 1T would
have been burned indelibly on my mem
ory," said Rear Admiral Schley, If it
had been received"
Taking up the testimony Of Captain
McCalla relating to coaling places, Rear
Admiral Schley said he did not believe
that officer would deliberately misrepre-
sent anything, but that when Captain
McCalla was on the stand he did not tell
the court the whole conversation he had
with Commodore Schley. He did not
testify" said the admiral, that his ad-
vice to me was the only place the vessels
could coal was on the coast of Hayti."

scHLEY CONTINUES STORY.
Commander at the Battle of Santiago
Tells of the Fight.

(0I uuCT at the baTIIG OF
Tells of the Fight.
Rear Admiral Schley continued his
story of the Santiago campaign at the
court of inquiry Friday. A positive de-
NAL of the "D-n the Texas" incident
testified to by Lieut.. Hodgson was one
of the features of Schley's statement. The
rear admiral said he not only did not
make the remark, but that the whole
story of the eolloquy as related by Hodg-
son was a fiction-that Hodgson was too
good an officer to interfere, and that he
(Schley) would not have permitted such
a breach of the regulations.
The story told was a marvellous
one. Turning to the court, Rear Ad-
miral Schley said: Il want to say that
| was much impressed with the fact that
the officers and men who were engaged
in that battle fulfilled in the highest and
noblest degree the traditions of the Amer
lean navy" -
Rear Admiral Schley explained away
many of the points of the precept and
made it plain that he was in command
during the battle, as upon hearing the
cry saat the edemy was coming out, he

nation Of the squadron on les way to
Santiago and referred to the Importance
Of keeping his squadron formation intact.
He said it would have been unwise and
unmilitary to leave behind the auxiliary
vessels and the collier which caused the
delay of his movement, and said the
smaller craft should not have been aban-
doned except as a last and strict mill
tary necessity, which he did not consider
existed.
In explaining why he did not place con-
fdence in the information sent by the
Navy Department relative to the where
abouts Of the Spanish feet Rear Admiral
Schley said he believed this was a ruse,
inasmuch as it had come by way of Ha-
yana He had not been informed that
the department had secret agents in Ha-
vana, as he should have been. He be-
Iieved the dispatch from the department,
saying it's evidences were that the Span
iards were in Santiago, was sent by the
Spanish officials for the express purpose
Of drawing the flying squadron away from
Cienfuegos, so as to permit Cervera tc
get into that harbor and communicate
with Havana.
Explains the RetrOGraue MoVemeHt'
In explanation of the retrograde move
ment Admiral Schley said this was deter
mined upon after he had considered al
the circumstances. He had taken the Goa
supply Of the squadron into account anc
had calculated on the amount Of fuel re
quired under the most favorable and un
favorable circumstances. The steamlns
power of his fleet was only equal to thai
of the weakest ship. Seven Of the ter
vessels were short Of coal. In addition tt
this he had taken into consideration thai
it might be necessary to chase the enemy
and he could not assume that the Span
iards would chase toward our base Of sup
plies, but toward their own. Therefore
any calculation relating to the coal sup
ply would have to assume conditions less
favorable to the American and most ia
vorable to the Spaniards.
The Merrimac's machinery broke down
and the collier signaled it would require
two or three hours to repair it, but as C
matter Of fact it took exactly twenty
four hours.
Rear Admiral Schley said it would bt
folly to send a ship alongside an unman
ageable collier. The risk was too grea
and he would not take it. He was on the

Aict;ng. The general impression was that
the fortified ports of Cuba were strongly
defended. The New Orleans had been
signaled to engage the battery, and upon
the conclusion Of the engagement his i'm
preston was that the fortihcatlons con-
sisted of six and eight-inch guns, as the
fire from the forts was heavy and as
many as fifty shells passed over the fleet.
The charts relating to the fortlhcatlons
furnished by the Navy Department were
dated 1886 and were useless. lie mad no
intention of placing the ships OF his heet
in jeopardy of the batteries, as the only
order he had in this connection was that
from the Navy Department directing MIN
not to risk the loss of his ships. lie ala
not propose to do this, and to do so De
fore destroying the Spanish squadron
would have been to invite an attach
which might have resulted dlsastrously.
Rear Admiral Schley denied that he
took refuge behind coming tower Oh
this occasion or that he made any re-
marks about white uniforms. He SAID he
was not nervous on this occasion, as mas
been testified by Potts, and as the SHIPS
headed directly for the harbor, there was
no opportunity to take refuge. Schley
did not take any advantage of any protec-
ton, but stood on the platform around
the coming tower.
Referring to the order Of May Y from
Sampson which contained definite infor-
nation that the Spanish squadron was IN
Santiago harbor Schley said he did not
receive this until June 10. The judge
advocate objected to this testimony, as II
went beyond the date on which Sampson
arrived at Santiago. The court decided
to admit the evidence. however.
From this point he went on to the dis
covery of the Colon in the harbor, and
said that Captain Sigsbee, when called
aboard the Brooklyn shortly after the
discovery was made, was much surprised
to know the Spanish feet was in Santiago
after he had been so certain it was not
there.
