Washington, July 26.—Admiral George Dewey, president of the Schley court of inquiry, and Rear Admirals Louis A. Kimberly and Andrew E. K. Benham, Washington Sept. the y over Schley’s conduct. The sessions of the court open, by order of the secretary, will direct that there shall be no fail- ure to afford Admiral Schley every opportunity for securing all the wit- nesses he may desire. The testimony to be presented must follow closely the lines of the official reports of theengagement at Santiago and the operations pre- ceding the destruction of Cervera’s fleet. Cross-examination will devel- op the expression of professional views, but so far as the case is con- cerned the public is already well in- formed of the questions at issue. Admiral Schley has been charged with disobedience of orders; that his movements were unnecessarily slow; that he was guilty of reprehensible conduct in starting with his squad- ron for Key West, leaving the enemy in his rear, and that he kept his ves- sel at the greatest range of distance compatible with his personal safety when under fire. A study of the re- port conveys the idea that Admiral Sehley was piqued in being supersed- ed in command by hissubordinate in rank,Admiral Sampson, and that all his movements were stupidly ward to say the least. On the Schley side his friends claim that awkward conditions and orders were maliciously invented for his em- barrassment in the determination that he should gain no credit out of the siege of Santiago. The Schley people insist there was a conspiracy to ruin their hero, and the Sampson faction claim that Schley was insub- ordinate. jealous and if not cowardly. members, will meet in 12, to investigate controver: Admiral will be who on awk- incompetent, Expelled From Russia. St. Petersburg, July 26.—A high Russian police officer called upon George Kennan, the American author and lecturer, at his hotel Thursday evening, and informed him he must leave the country by 10 o’clock this (Friday) evening. Mr. Kennon was not allowed to leave his room in the interim, but he courteously treated. This action by the Russian author- ities is taken under the law giving the minister of the interior the right of expelling undesirable foreigners. The notice served upon Mr. Kennan characterized him as untrustworthy politically. Mr. Kennan has inform- ed the United States minister to Rus- sia, Charlemagne Tower, of this ac- tion of the Russian authorities, but has not asked Mr. Tower to inter- vene in the matter. was Charged With Bigamy. Fort Collins, Col., July 26.—Henry H. Piggott, formerly a well-known Philadelphia lawer and prominent in financial circles of that city, has been placed under arrest here charged with bigamy. Piggott married his neice, Charlotte R. Garse, in Denver, in February last, and they have been living on a stock ranch near thiscity He claims he was divorced from his Philadelphia wife in Boston, Mass vil actions against both Piggott and the Garse woman, ate maintenance and alleged alienation of affection, each in the sum of $50,000 have been be- one for seper- | another for] characterized otherwise than as be- ing, without exception, the most humiliati cowardly and lamenta- ble report ever penned by an Ameri- ean naval officer. As tothe reconnaissance at San- tiago, historian MacLay says: ‘This timid and nerveless attack on Cervera’s ships is the more disap- pointing when we remember theelab- orate and brave preparations Schley had made to ‘get at the enemy’ in eart “Schley’s farcical blockade cannot than as willful be described otherwis disobedience of orders. As to the “loop” of the Brooklin, Macl way comments as follows: ordered the helm “Schley hastily aport. ‘But that willearry us into the Texas,” said the officer. ‘Let the Texas take care of herself,’ was the and the shameful American war ship, heartless reply; spectacle of an supported by a force superior to the enemy’s—a warship whose comman- der had expended such vast quanti- ties of ammunition on target prac- tice in the presence of a fashionable hotel at Hampton Roads in order te meet a worthy foe—deliberately turning tail and running away was presented. “Cervera nobly threw down the gauntlet.
