The Discovery a Poor Ship.

LONDON, Oct. %. - Sir Clements
Markham, president of the Royal Geo
graphical society, writes to the papers
today appealing for subscriptions to
the amount of another 100000 to cover
the cost of the Norwegian whaler Nor
genen. which has been purchased as Il
relief ship to the antarSie exploration
ship Discovery. The Discovery on the
voyage to Cape Town showed very Sc
rious defects. Although proving her.
self an excellent and stiff sea boat she
leaked badly, turned out to be slow
sailor and was found wanting In ade.'
quate coal capacity. These shortcom.
ings, Sir Clements Markham points
out, are additional reasons why re-
lief boat for the antarctic expedition il
an imperative necessity. As the Dis
covery was the first ship built in Great
Britain for polar expeditions these rev.
elations are disappointing.

SCHLEY QUESTIONED
Rigid Cross Examination by
Captain Lemly.
The ADMIRAL IS NOT FRUSTRATED.
Only About One-third Of the Ground
Covered During the Entire Day.
Two Witnssses Yet to Ne
Called For Defense.

WASHINGTON. Oct. 29.--The CROSS
examination or Admiral Schley began
yesterday before the court Of inquiry,
and hardly more than third Of the
ground was covered when the court
adjourned at o'clock. After Admiral
Schley concludes two other witnesses
will be called In his behalf, Admiral
Barker land Captain Thomas Borden.
The latter was an officer Of the marine
corps aboard the Brooklyn. The Judge
advocate then will call his witnesses in
rebuttal. of whom there are under
stood to be more than fifteen, and 1t IL
probable that Admiral Schley's coun-
sci will call witnesses in surrebu,ta.
The crowd present, while hardly so
large as on Friday last, when Admiral
Schley told the story Of the battle Of
Santiago showed undated interest In
the proceedings. Nothing sensational
developed and the only Outburst in
the court occurred when Mr. Rayner.
Admiral Schley's counsel. objected to
line of inquiry of the judge advocate
designed to rliticse Admiral Schry's
alleged failure to formulate plan Of
battle with the declaration that as Ad-
miral Sampson was in command his
Junior had no right to plan an order OF
battle.
Admiral Schley concluded his direct
examination. which continued only
about ten minutes after the court con-
vened in the morning, with state
ment of the effect of the fire of the re-
spective fleets at Santiago, showing
that 36 per cent of the hits suffered by
the enemy were scored by the Brook
lyn's ) inch guns, while his ship re-
celved 10 per cent of the hits from the
Spanish ships.
Captain Lemly's cross examination
was very searching. Admiral schey,
however, appeared to be unrutted
throughout the examination, frankly
admitting OH several occasions that he
could not remember little details after
the lapse Of three years. One line of in
qniry which the judge advocate tried to
press to show that Admiral Schley did
not proceed with dispatch" from Key
West to Cienfuegos by attempting to
contrast the speed made between
Charleston and Key West with the
time between Key West and Cicnfne-
Cos was curtailcd by Il decision of the
court which confined the questions TO
the time subsequent dA May 10, the day
on which the flying squadron left Key
West.
The rctrogradr movement, the firing
upon the Colon and the battle of San
tiago, which constitute the main fea-
lures OF the prccepr. were not touched
upon.
