THE SCHLEY CASE CLOSED
And the Admiral Proven Guilty of
"Reprehensible Conduct" Out
of His Own Mouth.

Tomorrow will wind up the taking
of testimony in the Schley Court Of
Inquiry. The admiral will again take
the stand to correct his hve days testi-
mony and then arguments Of counsel
will probably commence.
In the AdmiraTs testimony he clear
ly established the contention Of Admi-
raj Sampson that he (Schley) was
guilty of "reprehensible conuuct," He
was. And he made a terrible mistake
which the American people was not
aware of until Admiral Schley himself
confessed it. Admiral Schley admitted
that he wrote two reports of the battle
of Santiago the first a truthful one,
and the second an imaginative AFFAIR
And this second report is now the Of
fetal one How did he come to do this
thing? Well. It only again demon
strates the difference between the per-
sonal character Of Schley ana the jack
ais who have been yelping at his heels.
In the first report the then commO-
dOre wrote of the battle as it occurred
and in which, Of course, no mention
was made Of the battleship New York,
inasmuch as that ship was not present
at the engagement. Admiral Sampson
sent for Schley and handed him back
this report as a reflection on him
(Sampson). Schley, in his great gen
erosity remodeled the report to suit
SIMPSONS vanity, and in this remodel
ed document mentioned the New York
as joining in the chase Of the Colon!

proven charge. When the Court of In.
quiry makes up its verdict this conduct
of Schleys will be very properly con-
sidered "uneXcusable generosity" and
that Is just what Schley has been gull.

The Political Outlook.

Virginia and Maryland are safely
Democratic. with fair prospects that
Ohio will redeem itself and come into
the true fold on Tuesday next. We
have received letters of a very encOur-
aging character from old soldiers in
the Buckeye State that they viii not
only vote for Colonel Kilbourne, the
real soldier instead Of for Governor
Nash, the tin soldier but that they are
working late and early among their
comrades to make a landslide of the
eN-sOldier vote in favor OF the Demo
cratic Gubernatorial candidate,
The splendid canvass made in Nir-
ginia by General Montague has won
all real Democratic hearts. This elo-
quent spell-binder will not reach the
zenith Of his political career in the
Gubernatorial chair of the historic
Old Dominion. He will assuredly rise
to the dignity Of a great national char
acter, as his eloquence is born Of that
statesmanlike broadness and depth,
and is but the vocal utterance of lofty
thoughts and mighty aspirations,
which pToclaims genuine worth rather
than the artificial accomplishments Of
a trained political stumper.
In Maryland the magnificent general
ship Of Senator German has made sue
cess a foregone conclusion and the
Democratic candidates will come un-
der the wire on an easy canter assured
winners.
Altogether the prospects are encour-
aging for not only Democratic victory
next Tuesday, but for blazing the road
to a Democratic Congress to succeed
