THE CONTRADICTIONS.

1t happened in the present inquiry
that the applicant while on the stand
contradicted in whole or in part, direct
ly or indirectly, testimony given by
majority of the witnesses. By way of
particular illustration, Commodore
Schley gave testimony at variance with
that of the following witnesses: Rear
Admirals Cotton, Evans and Taylor;
Captains Sigsbee, McCalla, Cook, /
ger and Chadwick; Commanders Rod
gers, Wainwright, Schroeder and He'll
ner; Lieut-Commanders Hodgson,
Switzerland, Sharp, Marsh and Woods;
Major Wood, United States NJ. c..
Lieuts Hood, Reys and others. Where
the matters thus in dispute were Of
importance-and they generally were
it was not only the right, but the duty
of the court to accept the one and re-
! ject the other, and to report in har-
mony with such decision. Every court
must do this when occasion arises, and
such action constitutes no ground for
| remanding the case for consideration
| Some of the minor misstatements of
| facts above referred to as appearing in
| the paper under consideration, are the
statement in paragraph l that there was
no specification covering the voyage
| from Key West to Cienfuegos, when

applicant himself has been ignored
This is merely stated, not shown We
contend that the TESTIMONY OF
THE APPLICANT ALONE, upon di-
rect and cross examination catablished
the important facts generally of dila-
toriness, vaecillation and want Of en-
ergy at Cienfuegos, and throughout the
entire campaign from Key West to
Santiago; the particulars of the retro
grade movement; the disobedience of
ORDERS of the inaccurate and mislead-
ing official reports; neglect and fail
ure to destroy the Colon" injustice to
Lieutenant Commander Hodgson, and
some minor matters.
The facts of these points are all sub
stantially confirmed by the applicant S
own testimony so that, far from ig-
noring such testimony, the court may
have based its most important find
ings thereupon. But the court has a
perfect right, after weighing the evil
dence to ignore any evidence. Neither
the applicant, his counsel, nor judge
advocate is to say what testimony it
shall accept, and what it shall reject.
These matters may be argued, but their
final determination is the province of
the court.

SIMPSONS COMMAND.


Paragraph 26 of the paper under con-
sideratiOn reads: The majority of the
court have entirely failed to determine
as to who was in command of the
American naval force engaged in the
battle of Santiago, the finding of
which fact was absolutely necessary in
order to determine properly the first
specification of the precept as to the
conduct of Commodore Schley in con-
neCtion with the events of the Santi-
ago campaign. If it is true that a find
ing by the court upon this question
was absolutely necessary in order to
determine properly the first specifica-
tiOn of the precept, then it must be
stated that counsel for the applicant
failed of their duty during the inquiry
several times in the course of the pro-
ceedings they brought this question in
to court and took it out again, without
giving the court opportunity to rule
upon it; once even withdrawing il so
hastily as to interrupt the president Of
the court in a sentence that promised
to be an adverse ruling. If they seri-
ously believed, as they now state to be
the case, that the matter of command
on July 3rd was essential to the ap-
plicant's interest, it was their plain
duty not only to bring the question be-
fore the court, but to insist upon a
hearing there, and others interested
should have been heard. To request
that the court now rule upon it is to
ask that another officers interests be
passed upSn, to his possible prejudice,
in his absence, and without a hearing
a thing intolerable, whomsoever may
be concerned.
JUDGMENT AGAINST SCHLEY.
In conclusion, we are satisfied that no
good purpose would be served by re-
mitting the proceedings or any of the
features of this inquiry to the court.
A more patient. exhaustive and pains
taking hearing was never given; great
er consideration was never extended to
any officer before a military court of
inquiry. No expense was spared, no
convenience or facility denied. no
courtesy refused. The applicant has
had his day in court, and the judg-
ment is against him. 1t is according
ly recommended that the proceedings
be not returned, but that the matter be
concluded by the departments ap-
proval of the unanimous findings Of the
court We have the honor to be.

THE HORSE EPIDEMIC.
And How to Treat It-The Many Cases
 in New Haven.

And How to Treat It-The Many Cases in New Haven.
 Leading livery stable proprietors of this city estimated yesterday that 25 per cent. of the horses In New Haven were ill with the prevalent horse dis temper, and that about 25 per cent. of the horses here have been i'll with it and had recovered They were of the opin- ion that hundreds more of the horses here would have the disease One con- venient thing about the disease was that not all the horses had it at one time. For example, one horse in the stable would have the distemper and would get well before another, perhaps its next door neighborsin stalls, became i'll with it. But few fatal cases here occurred, The disease was unlike the epizootic of years ago, which prostrated many hundreds of horses in New Ha- ven, and was widespread among horses all over the country. The dstemper Is not as loathsome as was the epizootic which manifested itself in a repul- sive form before the public eye This distemper affects the throat and is at tended by more or less coughing, and
 
 nose discharge is nothing like as great as was the case in the eoizootc
 President John r. Haines, of the New York Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, has sent the fol- lowing warning concerning the pidemic of epizootic among horses, which may be of interest here:
 In reply to your favor of recent date we would say that the epidemic which the horses here have been passing through and which has apparently abated, Is said to be spreading through out the country. It would seem as if New York had been the center of the disease. In regard to the symptoms of the disease. we would say that the mild cases merely exhibit hard, dry cough, with slight tenderness on pressure of larynx but no elevation of tempera- ture or loss of appetite. Other cases in connection with the cough had tenn perature ranging from 102 to 1O6, with discharge from the nose of muco-pur- ulent character. with loss of appetite. difficulty in swallowing, and extreme exhaustion, and in some cases a filling up of the intermediary space with the lbTlldtlOn or dDSCeSSeS. some cases were also accompanied with pneumo- mia. We are now having, as compli- cation, and which is due to any depict ing or facilitating disease, a condition termed purpura hemoragia (dropsy). l This condition is a troublesome disease to treat and often fatal. We have | found that perfect hygienic conditions in the stable-cleaniness ventilation, drainage and the use of disinfectants- greatly mitigate the severity of the at | tack. If there is no loss of appetite or elevation of temperature in the horse only the cough-the animal is fit for , light service.

IN soUTHBURY.

Historic Old Residence Renovated.
 The old house so long known as the
 Stone place, in White Oak" South
 bury, has changed hands. The house
 was built 194 years ago by Nathan
 Curtiss, standing just over the Wood
 bury line, the barn in Woodbury and
 The place has been running down for
 several years and was worthy of re-
 pair for its historical associations. In
 the time of the Revolution 1t was used
 as hotel and barroom. During the
 year 1731 the French army under
 General Lafayette passed through the
 towns of Woodbury and Southbury on
 their journey south sto join General
 Washington in his operations against
 Cornwallis. This was a pretty direct
 route from Boston and it was a gener- al's design to keep at a safe distance from the coasts. The army encamped for the night is such companies as suited their convenience and when they had pitched their tents they extended all way from Middle Quarter to White Oaks distance of nearly three miles Lafayette with his chief officers lodged at the house of Hon. Daniel Sherman, now owned by MT. Benedict Other officers passed on down, most of them stopping at the old Stone place, then a tavern. At that time there was large fort built near the house, which was used to protect the people from the Indians. It was also used by the armies passing through. The house was quite central at that time It has changed hands several times, going from Nathan Curtiss to Samuel Bald win, then to Alonzo Stone, who owned the place for fifty years, then to his son, Harvey Stone, who sold the place to J. R. Orr of New Haven this spring. In all these years only two deaths have occurred in the house MT. Orr, seeing the beauty of the place. and knowing the history connected with 1t, bought the place and has remodeled the house, barn and everything connected with 1t. The grounds have been beautifully laid out stone pillars and rustic seats ad- ding to the beauty of the place, which retains the old colonial style. While grading the lawns Mir. Orr came across the old fort, striking solid stone work which he left as it originally was. The grand old trees around the place have | been retained. The house is now com pete with all the modern conveniences. Mir Orr will not reside here himself, as he has built up and remodeled a num- Der of old places, being interested in their history. The house will remain | vacant unless rented by someone-l Hartford Courant. |

ORANGE ST. BURGLAR SCARE
Caused by the Falling of an Arc Lamr

| Caused by the Falling of an Arc Lamp
 and Consequent Investigation. Upper Orange street had a burglar scare early yesterday morning, which made a good hot weather story for the | newspapers, but didn't amount to much | in reality An electric pole arm, hold | ing an arc light, at the corner of Or ange and Edwards streets became loose and fell to the street The crash of glass aroused the neighborhood. Attor- | ney A. Mcclellan Mathewson, living on one corner. and S F. Dibble, the Grand avenue plumber. and a prominent | member of New Haven's board of health living on another corner, thought clumsy burglars were at work and proceeded to investigate. The former went over his house. found everything serene, sat up awhile and finally went to bed. The latter
 however, discovered the source of dis
 turbance and sent word to the Electric Light company, believing that possible live wires might do damage and per- haps eleetrocute few nilkmen, sour their stock and touch up newsboy or two.
 MT. Dibble had done a good service in having the wires removed from the street. and he was about to retire when he spotted a light In the Mathewson house "Burglars?" questioned MT. Dibble. mentally. He understood that the Mathewson house was vacant for the summer and he considered 1t strange that there should be a light there. MT Dibble rang up the Grand avenue precinct and made known his suspicious.
 It was not long after that the patrol wagon from the Grand avenue precinct came rumbling through the street and stopped in front of MT. Mathewsons house. Half dozen bluecoats jumped out and surrounded the residence while one of the coppers went to the door and pulled the door bell. Attorney mathewson responded to the call. The GODS wanted an explanation as to what he was doing there.
 "Why this Is my house." replied the lawyer. why, what's all this rumpus about anyway? Who sent you here and why have you come at this hour "
 "The sergeant sent us here" said inc head burglar hunter. "It was re- norted that burglars were in the house"
