SCHLEY TELLS
HIS STORY
FAMOUS ADMIRAL CALLED TO
WITNESS STAND.
GIVES DETAILS OF CAMPAIGN
Declared Sigsbee Said the Spaniards
Were not in Santiago harbor-De.
cIares He Was not Disobedient Of
Orders of Navy Department in Nc.
Gala Communicate

Washington, Oct. 25.-Admiral
Schley yesterday took the stand in
his own behalf at the court of inquiry.
He was summoned a few minutes
after the court convened at o'clock
for the afternoon session and when
the court adjourned at o'clock he
apparently had only gotten well I'M
der way in his testimony.
Coming to the blockade Of Glen
fuegos the admiral explained the for
nation of the fleet there, saying the
steaming which had been mentioned
in the logs was for the purpose of
overcoming the effect of the current
He said the ships were constantly set
Ting into the beach and were obliged
almost every hour to steam for a mile
or two. In this connection the ad
miral said he had fixed the position OF
the squadron every morning and
every afternoon by what was known
as the four point bearing. we were
closer at night and that" he said en-
phatically, was the rule of the squad
both to CienfuegOS and Santiago. The
arrangement during the day was OF
some little feignCd disorder in the hope
that we might invite those people
out"
He detailed at length the receipt of
ing the blockade of Cienfuegos, telling
how he observed men laying mines
across the river and how he estab-
lishcd a picket line inside the main
line of blockade. He referred to the
arrival of the Dupont, which, he said,
was very short of coal and told of the
difficulties experienced in putting a
few additional tons aboard the torpedo
boat
The incident of the arrival of the
British ship Adula was related in
much detail, the admiral telling how
she had brought information in the
shape of war bulletin which had
stated that the Spanish fleet arrived
at Santiago May 10, and left the fol
lowing day. He said he had not been
llliOi lilNN VI lllC olSuulS al hIlSStl Win
Cubans on shore until the morning of
May q, when Captain McCalla told
him.
He related the incident of Sigsbees
coming aboard the Brooklyn. Il said
to him; Captain, have you got the
Dons here?' He said: No, they are not
in here. have been in very close
said: Have any other vessels seen
them the Yale or the Minneapolis?'
He said: No, they have not. They
have assured me So"
Relating to the interview with M.
nez. Schley said Nunez expressed the
opinion it was almost impossible for
the ships to seize the Spanish fleet by
entering Santiago harbor The wit
ness said this positive information
had caused him to pursue the course
he did in relation to Santiago.
He took up the discussion of the
coaIing question and defended his
action in that respect. Taking up his
with McCalla, again
he discussed his dispatch to the navy
regarding the disobeyance
of orders. He said the translated |
was essentially different from
the dispatch he framed. He contend |
ed there was no disobedienCe; that he !
with orders in returning to |
Santiago and held that a proper con
of his dispatch would re-
Iieve him of this charge At this |
point the court adjourned
