Preparing His Case for Presentation
to the Naval Court.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-Admiral Schley,
who arrived here with his wife last night,
will remain here until the court of inquiry
which is TO investigate the Santiago cam
paign completes its work. The interim be-
tween now and the opening OF the sessions
of the court will be devoted TO the prepara-
ton of his side of the case. To-day he had
his first consultation with his counsel,
Judge Jere Wilson of this city, former Rep
resentative Raynor of Baltimore and Capt.
James Parker of New Jersey. Admiral
Schley will go over everything relating TO
the matter with his counsel and place them
I'm possession CT every fact pertinent TO a
thorough ard complete understanding of
the events of the campaign which are in
controversy. Admiral Schley declines to
talk about the case. He considers that the
order of Secretary Long, prohibiting officers
of the navy from discussing any phase of
IL, applies to him as we'll as 10 others, and
he is obeying II literally.
Admiral Schley did not appear at the
Navy Department to-day. The naval regu-
lations provide that every officer of the
twenty-four hours after his arrival, register
his name and city address at the Bureau OF
Navigation, Navy Department. 1t is gen.
orally customary for officers TO comply
with this regulation by appearing In per-
son. but under the practice which obtains

sidered a compliance with the above regu-
latiOn.

THOUGHT v SAFE.
Facts Brought Out by the Diary of n
Spanish Lieutenant.

Washington Letter in Baltimore American.
Curiously enough. the Spanish military
ard naval authorities in Santiago believed
all during the day of the battle. when
Schley destroyed their fleet, that Admiral
Cervera had escaped with his ships. The
whole city was given 70 rejoicing over the
victory until about sunset. when the news
Of the tragedy became known. The Bureau
of Naval Intelligence has recently made
public the diary of Lieutenant Muller y
Tejeiro. the second i'm command of the
naval forces in Santiago. He gives the fol-
lowing account of the battle as it appeared
to the officers who were left behind in the
city:
THE day was most beautiful and the calm
perfect. Therefore, the smoke, far from
vanishing, rose up in a staight line. When
the first moment of excitement was over
and We had somewhat cooled down. we
could see perfectly that the smoke from
the firing formed four groups, more or less
distant from each other. But what group
did our fleet form? If the one arthe to
the west, then no doubt ii was not sur
rounded and had the open sea before ii, and
TINS was a great advantage. If, on the con-
trary, II formed the second or third, then
IL was between two fires.
Later on IL was noticed that the firing
was at a greater distance ana decreased III
intensity, and that the columns OF smoke
We're moving farther To the west. Had they
succeeded in escaping and outwitting the
hostile neet? For the present one thlng was
certain-our ships had not gone down in the
entrance of the harbor nor even close 20 II.
and that was of great Importance, for the
greatest danger was i'm the channel. I'M
agine our JOY when the MORO advised us by
telephone that our fleet was fighting in
wing formation and that the enemy didn't
nave the range. Evidently the age of
miracles was not over. | will not attempt

Il may safely say that the 3d of July
was a day of true rejoicing, for. as will be
day, il was believed that our ships had ac-
complished their object, although at the
cost OF the destroyors, the loss of which
was already known. And, although we felt
very sad over the victims there must have

liant that 1t surpassed all reasonable expec-
tations."

Farms i'm Alaska.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 16.-The Census
Bureau. to-day. issued a report on the
agricultural statistics for Alaska. 1t
shows that Alaska's total farm wealth.
Tune 1, 1900. was SIS. $50. of which 81. 196 was
invested in live stock. $500 in implements
and machinery and 1880 represented the
value of buildings and other improvements.
Buildings AVE been erected on nine OF
the twelve farms I'm the Territory. Prepar-
ing soil for cultivation has been the chief
item OF expense in opening farms, being
i'm some instances $40 per acre. The
twelve farms have a total acreage of 1853
acres, and vegetables are the principal
product. Five of the farms are only small
market gardens of less than three acres.
The total value of domestic animals and
poultry was 2,196. Potatoes and turnips
furnished the principal income from vege-
tables. Next to vegetables grass cut for
hay and ensilage IS the most important
agricultural product. From the stand
point of income upon capital invested
poultry raising I'm 1899 was relatively the
most profitable branch of Alaskan agricui-
ture.

PEKING. Aug. 1s.-The troops OF the
powers have not yet evacuated the public
buildings. The British and Americans pro-
pose to occupy the Temple of Heaven and
the Temple of Agriculture until their bar
racks are ready. Sir Ernest Satow, the
British minister, thinks it would not be
wise TO withdraw before the protocol has
been signed in conjunction with the Chinese
plenipotentiaries, as withdrawal would re-
move the chief inducement to the Chinese
to sign. The Japanese still hold the north
ern section of the city. 1t is considered
significant of their relations with the Chi
nese that a japanese colonel has been
elected to command and organize the Chi
nese police. The opinion is growing that
the court will refuse to return so long as
the powers maintain such large forces in
the province of Chilli. The protocol does
not provide for the destruction of the forts.
