WHAT srGsBEE SAID TO sCOvEL.



Rantiago Harbor.
Probably the most important of the
witnesses yesterday was Sylvester SEQ
vel. He was on board the Somers ".
Smith. press boat and came up with
Sigsbee's boat the st. Paul, off Santi-
ago, May % or %, he said. Scovel
wanted to know the news, naturally.
and through megaphone (the two
boats being from Is to 100 feet apart
ne asked Sigsbee where was Schley.
Sigsbee said he was in the Yucatan
passage and that the Smith--which
was slow boat-could overtake the
commodore.
Then Scoyel asked "Where is Ger
yera?" This question Sigsbee did not
reply to at once. but consulted with
another officer on the bridge before re-
plying: II am not sure. but we caughs
an English collier trying to sneak into
the harbor this morning" This ended
Scovel's talk with Sigsbee, but he said
that ether men on the Smith had con-
versation with Sigsbee, and Scoyel said
partly In reply to Rayner. that 1t was
possible that he (ScoveD had not heard
everything that was said, 1t was bare.
ly so. as the boat was small and the
conversation through megaphone
necessarily loud. The point Of Scovel's
testimony was that Sigsbee did not in
form him that Cervera was not In San
ago harbor.
Scovers last reply to Rayner was:
"No, / am not prepared to say that
his [Hare'sl statement Is false, and
that no such conversation took place,
but | can swear that nothing of the
kind was said while | was conducting
the conversation. and conducted the
principal part of it," Hare swore that
Sigsbee megaphOned that day that Ger
vera was not In Santiago harbOr

WRESTLE WITH FACTS
Comes on Apace for the Judges in
the SchIey Court of
Inquiry.
TESTIMONY rs NEARLY ALL GIVEN
Scovel and Hood Add to the Record
Schley to Correct His Evidence
Then Oratory.

Washington, Nov. 2.-The hands Of
the elongated antique timepiece which
stands against the wall in the hall &C.
cupied by the Schley court of inquiry
pointed to 12:45 p. M. yesterday when
Judge Advocate Lemly announced that
he had no more witnesses to call, and
Rayner, following him, said that no
witnesses would be summoned on be-
Ealf of Admiral Schley in sur-rebuttal.
For a moment it appeared as If the
now famous case was about to reach a
sudden conclusion. But this delusion
was soon dissipated by the announce
ment on the part of Captain Lemly
that he might ask to be allowed to
bring in one more witness on Monday,
and also statement from Rayner
that Admiral Schley himself would de.
sire to return to the stand on Monday
to correct errors in his evidence as Of
fcially reported.
Only Three More Men to Hear
There is probability that the adj
niral will consume considerable time
in going over the printed record of
what he said. and there also is an un-
Outstanding that he will make some adj
fditions to his former statements. But
1t Is not believed that beyond what he
may have to say there will be much
more testimony taken in the case. The
only witness that the judge advocate
still has in mind is Lieutenant Strauss.
and Captain Lemly said yesterday that
If the lieutenant's attendance could be
secured he would detain the court for
a short time only. Captain Sigsbee
also will return to the stand Monday
to make corrections in the testimony
given Thursday by him.
Court Has a Tough job Ahead.
These details completed the argu-
ment of counsel will begin. and then
counsel and the public will withdraw
and leave the court to it's deliberations.
The task before the court is not a light
one, and it may be weeks before the
final verdict will be reached. Yester-
days witnesses were Sylvester Scovel,
a former newspaper correspondent who
saw service in the Cuban campaign;
Lieutenant Hood. who commanded the
Hawk during the Spanish war, and
number of officers who were heard
Thursday. and who returned to the
stand to correct testimony The court
held only one session and adjourned
over until Monday.
