Admiral Sohley said:

That was the GENE raj order OF the

CORRESPONDENCE WITH HoDG.

In response TO Mr.. Raynor. Admiral
Schley detailed the A,rticulars Of his
correspondence with Lieut.. Commander
Hodgson regarding the publication Of
this alleged colloquy. saying that be-
cause OF the original publication he had
thought proper to ask Mr.. Hodgson

Mr.. Raynor asked II he remembered

tween Hodgson and Cant. Cook to
which the latter had testified. when the
former called the attention OF the cap
tain OF the Brooklyn to the Texas. and
Capt. Cook had replied; "Oh, yes:

that he thought he did recall It,

develop points OF the controversy which
he evidently felt the admiral had not
brought out sufficiently. He asked Ad-
lhlfal Schley If he knew anything Of an
ORDER which went 20 the men on the
biooklyn during the early part OF the
battle OF July 3, 20 stand by the ran"
to which the admiral replied:
Yes; | directed that order myself,
because / called the attention OF Capt.
COOK at the time we were standing in
TO the Spanish ships, and said: Look
out They are going to ram YOU There
was distinct attempt on the part OF
both the Teresa and the Vlzcaya 10

were coming directly at US, and / don't
think | mistook their intention at all.
II was onlyl after the Vizcaya had
changed her course that We made our
loop, now so celebrated"
MORE ABOUT LOOP.
Mr.. Raynor-While talking about the
loop, why did not the ship turn with
helm hard starboard?
simply for the reason that Il would
have carried us into dangerous prox-
unity to torpedo attacks. a broadside
torpedo attack OF the enemys vessels.
My judgment was that at tha, Stage Of
the action the Brooklyn ought not to
be sacrificed; that, so far as It might
affect the result 20 individuals /
thought II was consideration that
SHOULD be turned aside foY the higher
and more important one-the interests
OF the country she was there 10 OBJ
serve"
As to the uncoupling Of the engines,
Admiral Schley testified that he thought
they were uncupied by q standing order
OF the commander-in-chief At the
same time he said he believed the UNI
coupling was wise. both because Il
would keep down the heat below dacks
which was well nigh insufferable for
the men as II was and also on ac-
count Of the desrability Of economic
ing coal.
HE QUESTIONED SAMPSON.
MT Raynor then asked Admiral
Schley II he had asked Admiral Samp-
son II there were any signals with the
insurgents Il did he replied, but the
admiral said he knew of none"
MI Raynor then called the attention
OF Admiral Schley 10 the following dis.
patch. dated Key West, Fla. May q.

Admiral Schley next referred 10 the

miral Taylor. who, during the Santiago
campaign commanded the Indiana.
| admiral Taylor" he said has testi-
fed here that he saw the BROOKLYN PASS
a mile and a half south OF the line
that day, Capt Taylor's position was
| distant from that OF the Brooklyn pos
! siblv four miles. In the preparation
| OF the Senate document which is before
| the court the statement II made that
| the movement OF the Brooklyn in max
| ing the loop separated her by 500 yards
| from the enemy. Capt Taylor was a
member Of the board which made that
declaration His evidence OF 300 yards
as testified 10 here. does not agree with
that fact. Furthermore. the log-hook
OF the Iowa for July 3. az printed in
the report OF the bureau Of navigation
states that the Indiana soon dropped
hopelessly behind So that I did not
think Admiral Taylor was In a nosition
to have been cognizant Of the fact.
THAT FAMOUS TURN.
II do not think the Brooklyn passed
even within her tactical diameter when
she made the loop. When she made
that turn don't think she separated
herself beyond GOO Yards. because when
she turned from the Nizcaya, her dis
lance was little less than loo Yards
After that range was given We had adj
vanced a little and when she turned
around the leading ship ~ the Spanish
