R — BATTLE MAPS NOT PRECISE Wainwright Tells Beard cf Inquiry They Are Oaly Estimates. BRISTOL ALSO TALKS OF THE CHARTS Wateh Ofcer of Texas Confines T ony Largely to Explaining His Own Drawin, WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. <There were two new witnesses before the Bchley court of inquiry today. They were Commander Walnwright, who commanded Glouc during the war with Spain, and Lieutenant M. L. Bristol, who, as ensign, was a watch and division officer of Texas duriig that weriod Lieutenant Bristol had not concluded his testimony when the court adjourned for the day. He did not see the loop made by Brooklyn, the greater part of his testimony turning upon a chart he had made showing largely according to his memory the posi- tions of the various ships of the fleet at different times during the engagement of July 3. There were severa' <pirited con- troversies between counses over questions asked the witness by Mr. Rayner concern- ing bis chart Commander Wainwright's testimony dealt largely with chart making. He was for a time #enlor member of the board of navigators, which prepared the official chart showing the position of the American ships during the battle of Santlago, and he gave detalls of the method of its preparation. He said he Ald not consider the positions assigned in that drawing accurate, but that they were given as the result of a compromise of the views of the members of the board. ht Holds the Stage. Lieutenant Hodgson, Captain Folger and Captaln Dyson made additions to thelr previous testimony, but there was a special Interest in Commander Walnwright's tes- Wainwrl timony because of his prominent identification with the Spanish war and also because of the fact that he Is now superintendent of the naval acad- emy at Annapolis. Durlng the summer of 1508 Mr. Walnwright commanded the con- verted yacht Gloucester, which played a conspicuous part in the campaign against the Spanfards. In the battle of July 3 his vessel occupled a position onm the right of the American column; to the east of In- diana, and when the Epanish torpedo boats Pluton and Furor came out of the harbor he attacked them fearlessly and alded in their destruction. He was also an ob- server, though at a distance, of the battle between the big ships of the two fleets. Folger Makea Suggestions, The proceedings of the day began by the recall of Captain W. M. Folger for the pur- pose of correcting his testimony of yester- @ay. Advantage was taken of his presence to ask him further questions concerning the blockade of Santiago. Among other ques- tions he was asked by Captain Lemly if he Bchley during the blockade. He replie “Toward the evening of one of the days, the 30th, there was an extended, very se- vére rainstorm, 8o severe that I feared that Cervera had gotten out, as It was suf- clently long to bave permitted him to do #0. I went on board the flagship the next day, thinking it my duty to tell the com- modore what 1 had seen as to the blockade as kept by the Japanese off the port of Wel- Hal-Wel, where similarly an enemy’s fleet was within a fortified harbor. 1 sald to the commodore that the adoption of the tactics of the Japanese, forming a circle directly in tront of the harbor would, in my opinion, be preferable, as then It would be difficult tor anything to get out.” Judge Advocate—Was there any reply by the commodore? cannot testify exactly as to his reply. I would prefer not to do o.” Judge Advocate—Give the substance. He dld not agree with me as to the ne- ity for that.” 'Was there anythisg further sald by Nothing further that T recollect.” Captain Folger also said that he had no recollection of a picket line on the inside of the American fleet. At the request of Captain Parker of coun- sel tor Admiral Schley the witness exam- ined the log of New Orleans for May 30 and 31, 1898, for the purpose of determining ac- curately the state of the weather, but he declined to modify his statcment of yester- day that the weather on those days was bad. aptain Folger was then excused and Lieutenant Dyson was called. He was questioned by Captain Lemly concerning the steaming condition of July 3. The judge advocal sked: “What does Brooklyn's steam log show as to the num- ber of engines coupled up and the bollers In use July 3, 189 compared with the ngine and boller power of the ve Brooklyn on Ship is Not Ready The reply was: ““Brooklyn bas four main engines, two to each shaft, connected to- gother by coupling. It has seven bollers, fve main and two suxHiaries. On the morning of July 3 both forward engines were uncoupled; there were banked fires under three of the main bollel The other bollers we call ‘dead,’ no steam In them. 1 Judge from the time It took to start fires in these bollers after the Spanish fleet came out of the harbor the furnaces were not even primed and two of the boilers had to be run up to the sca steaming level. It took from 9:35 to 10 o'clock to start fires In response to other questions the wit- ness detalled from the log of Brooklyn all that was done on that vessel to get up speed. Mr. Rayner asked If It was not necessary to stop the ship to couple the uncoupled engines and the witness renlled that the ship could have been kept going with one engine while the other was coupled. The engines were designed, he sald, to be kept coupled during war. Discussing the speed ©of the various vessels of the fleet on July 3, the witnes id that Oregon got up a speed about equal to Brooklyn on that day, not withstanding that on its trial trip Brooklyn made over twenty-one knots to Oregon's seventeen knots. He called at- tention to the fact that New York had made sixteen or seventeen knots soeed on thoe day of the battle, In response to ques- tiona from Capiain Parker he said that New York had not had [ts englnes coupled -_— A DOCTOR'S EXPERIENCE, trange as It may seem,” remarked a hysician, who has practiced In a small lace for nearly 20 vears, “‘three-fourths of Y fractice |s amongst the farmers 1lVing within a radius of 12 miles of this town Farmers ought to be the healthlest people on earth, but an a_matter of fact, there is somebody wick in their familles most of the time.

Hodgson Retracts & After Lieutenant Dyson was excused Lieutenant Commander Hodgson was re- called for the purpose of correcting errors in his testimony as printed in the official record. He took occasion to change some of the language of hie previous testimony One of these changes was made in response to why he had designated as A llar and blackguard”’ the editor of a newspaper which had originally printed the alleged colloquy between himeelf and Commodore Bchley. He sald he desired to alter the reply that he had yesterday given to this Interrogatory. He then sald “ o course, am very sorry that I ever so far forgot myself as to write a letter contalning such Intemperate language It was not written exactly for publication, but under great provocation at the time. In that letter 1 did not accuse this newspaper of Iylng for printing that statement. In fact It was to absolve it from lying that I gave the paper authority to use my name for the correctness of tue gist of that statement. ““The lying was on the matter of the fact that the commodore displayed such trepi- dition and cowardice on Brooklyn the day of the battle that he ran from the Spaniards and took Brooklyn to the southward and away from the fight in order to detract from the credit of the fame of the commo- dore in that battle; that they wished also to detract from the credit of all the off. cers of Brooklyn on account of the glorious part it took in that day’'s fight. It was the words to that extent that I characterized as lying. There was no lying in that col. loquy unless a man stuck to the verbal cor- rectness of the words. 8o I did not char. acterize the paper as a liar for printing that colloquy.” Wainwright Tella of ement. art, Lieutenant Commander Hodgson being ex- cused, Commander Walnwright was called ‘aptain Lemly began his examination by drawing from the witness the fact that he had been a member and latterly senfor member of the board which had officially acted in making the chart showing the po- sitions of the American and Spanish ships at Santiago. The witness said that the po- sitions on the chart were established by estimated bearings. Most of the positions were, he sald, fixed by the navigators constituting the board though Captain Chadwick was before board. Asked by Mr. assigned to Brooklyn and Texas while the former vessel was making its loop, Com- mander Wainwright said he did not sider them correct “For myself,”” he sald, ‘I was never satis- fled with the places assigned.” He sald further that while the board had done the best it could, at the time, as a board, {ts action had not satisfied any one member of the board. It was the best we could do to get all the members to sign the chart,” he sald “Who, in addition to yourself, satisfied?”’ asked Mr. Rayner. Nome Satisfied with Chart. “I would not like to say," witness, “lI know that the 1 think none wae satisfled except the navigator of Brooklyn, and I don't know that he was.' “But notwithstanding you were all, in- cluding the navigator of Brooklyn, dissat- tsfled, you signed the report?” “That is coriect.” On re-direct examination, Commander Walnwright sald that in making the chart all the members of the board were at lib- erty to contribute whatever data they had or make whatever argument they might de- sire. He also said that the chart was a compromise of opinions. Iu response to further questtons, witness sald he did not see Brooklyn on the dav of the battle off Santiago. Questions were put by the court and an- swered as follows: “*Were the positions of the ships as shown on the chart in question obtalned from tes- timony taken by the board or from a gen- al- the con- was not responded the eral discussion by the members of the board ?"* “Almost entirely by general discussion by the members of the board. Captain Chadwick and Captain Cook appeared and discussed the matter with the board.” “From the position of Gloucester at the commencement of the battle of July 3 could you see both Brooklyn and Texas?" “1 do not remember seeing Brooklyn and Texas at the commencement of the battle.” Sees N ““What orders, If any, were signaled by Brooklyn fo the fleet during the engage- ment of July 37" “'1 saw none." Mr. Rayner—This does not mean that no signals were displayed, does It? “'No, It does not.” By the Court—DId any one of the Spanish vessels change Its course to the southward, as If intending to ram one of the fleet? “1 saw no sign of it." Commander Walnwright was then ex- cused and Lieutenant M. L. Bristol, former watch and division officer on Texas. was called. He had only related the arrl of Texas at Clenfuegos and detalled conditions Signals on Brooklyn. there when the court took a recess for luncheon. Detatls of the Chase, After luncheon Lieutenant Bristol de- tailed the part Texas played In the battle, g1ving the detalls of the chase up the Cuban coast. Describing the close of that pur- sult, he sal ““We continued on with the chase of Colon, which was then ahead of Viscaya, In the same relative positions, Brooklyn, Oregon and Texas, and, after- ward at the end of the chase. New York Joined in It. I forgot to mention that Vixen was outside Brooklyn during this time, and along at the time Viscaya sheered inside and kept abreast of us until we over- hauled It and went ahead until Colon finally -turned in shore and hauled down its flag. Texas then joined the rest of the ships near the that night."” Mr. Hanna inquired: From the position you occupled during the chase, could you or not determine which of our vessels was leading? The witness replied: 1 could “What did you estimate as to their rela- tive positions? “That was obtained comparatively, The distance to Colon ranged from about three and a balf or four miles up to five or six miles at the emd of the chase. It draw away trom us slowly. Brooklyn and Ore- gon were considerably closer to us then Colon. Oregon was closer then Brooklyn, #0 that Brooklyn was leading as regards the distance from us that it was out on our bow. In response to questions by M Lieutenant Bristol sald that he had made his chart because of his Interest in the battle, and that he had prepared it a few days after the battle. In reply to & question from Mr. Rayoer the witness stated that “to the best of my knowledge and belief the chart s right.” Hanged for Marder of Prof, PHILADELPHIA, Oct. §.—Charles Perry and Henry Ivory, colored, were hanged to- day in the county prison for the murder of Roy Wilson, white, professor of law at the University of Pennsylvania. The drop fell at 10:06%. The men met death bravely and neither made any atement on the gallows. Ivory was quickly strangled to death, but the knot slipped under Perry's chin and it was some time before life was extinet. The hanging of Perry and Ivory was the first double execution i this eity in twelve years.

GREATEST FAITH IS votional exercises at this evening's session of the American Board of Mission, Presi- dent 8 B. Capen, LL D. read the ofi- cial report of the board concerning the captivity and ransom of Miss Ellen M Stone. The report was as follows “There is such universal interest in the case of Miss Ellen M. Stone, now in the hands of the brigands, that fs seems wise for the officers of the board to make a briaf statement of facts as they exist at the | present time. For several weeks the gov- ernment officials at Washington have been at work, using every possible effort to se- cure her reloase. These have been davs of deep anxiety for the offcers of the board. We have been fn frequent communi- cation with our representative in Con- stantinople. Last Thursday we recelved a dispateh from Washington, which told us how increasingly grave the situation had became. On the receipt of this message a meeting of the prudentlal committee was | hastily called to meet the following day at 12 o'clock and discusscd the situation most thoroughly Disagreeable Alternative, 'On the one side was the life of a dearly beloved misslonary; on the other side was | the fact that It we yielded to this demand | for ransom it was putting a premium on the lives of every missionary of the Amerl | can board and not of our board only, but misslonaries of every soclety in the world | The question was even broader than the | case of missionaries; it practically con | cerned the safety of any and every Amerl- can citizen. Recognlzing the full gravity of the situation, the committee without a dissenting vote, decided that it had no right to pay a ransom and establish a precedent which would be sure to he dangerous in all | the future, Furthermore, we were ro- | strained by the further fact. that we had no | funds that could be employed for this pur pose. The government was restrained from paying the money by constitutional limita- tion, and the American board seemed equally restrained from paying a ransom. Send Delegation to Roosevelt, “The solicitude of the committee was such and its wish to do everything was so strong that it sent a delegation consisting of the president and one of ifs secretaries to Washington to meet President Roose velt and the officials of the State depart- ment. This conference was held last Satur- day forenoon. It was impossible to over- state the sympathy of the president and | the state officlals. The conference was lengthy, during which time the government | showed what steps it was taking, and what power of diplomacy was being used to effect the release of Miss Stone. Confidential de- tails were given, which, of course, would be a breach of trust for us to give to the public, but the friends of the board and the whole nation can be assured that every- thing possible Is being done to further the recovery of Miss Stone. The heart and the pereistence of the president in this effort were most significant. They assured us that apparently at the moment the only practicable method to secure her life was to have the funds promptly at hand to pay the ransom. It was evidently the positive conviction of the government that this step was the first one to be taken. Wil Attempt Recovery, “But it ought to be clearly understood that this is but one step; that when she is released there will be a vigorous attempt not only to secure the return of the money, but, furthermore, to bring about such con- ditions that such an occurrence shall not be pessible In the future. No onme doubts that our government will aot drop this matter until the rights of American citi- zens are established. “Meanwhile a movement was established under the lgadership of the family of Miss Stone to secure by subscription the amount of ransom demanded for Miss Stone, and appeals had been sent out asking that funds be sent to Kidder, Peabody & Co. of Bos- ton, who had consented to act as treasurer of the fund. Under this new advice of the government a meeting of the prudential committee was called on Sabbath morning, which wae attended by eight members and four officers. The report of the gentlemen went to Washington was recelved and after full deliberation it was decided that while we could not recede from the action of last Friday the tidings of the government made it most evident that the first thing was to secure Miss Stone’ fety, then other steps would follow; therefore we felt, as in- dividuals, it was our duty and privilege to help by all means in our power the secur- ing of this ransom from the general publiec. Communications were sent by telegram, so far as possible, to every part of the coun- try, even to the Pacific coast Appeal is Responded To. Money in sums large and small has been recelved In answer to this appeal to hu- manity. The government has showed its supreme Interest in this matter by already becoming the custodian of this fund as handed to it by the firm of Kidder, Peabody & Co. This plan not only shows the gov- ernment’s interest, but it guards agalnst any possibility that any part of the money will be pald over until Miss Stone person- ally has been placed in safety in the hands of the proper authorities, “It will be seen from the above state: { ment that the board has been a unit in its whole nction from the beginning, and con sistent throughout. Its officers and friends are willing to use every effort to procure this fund under the conditions and limita- tions given. Any one who had been pres- ent at the conference in Washington would not heaitate to have full confidesce fn the government's efforts. The officials of the board, having been recefved Into its con- fldence, are willing to trust the govern ment, and we have no doubt that the friends of the board will have confidence In ue." Deatha in the Ranks The report of the prudential committee, home department, was read by the secre- tary, Rev. C. H. Danlels of Boston. It stated that durlng the last year seven members of the board bave died, that twenty-three new misslonaries have been sent to the foreign fleld, seven men, two of whom are physiclans, six wives of mis- slonaries and ten single women, and that sixty-two missionaries have returned from furloughs in this country to the midsions. Two business men in New York have pledged 38,500 toward a new mission in the Philippines. Another person bhas pledged enough for a school bullding If the board should decide to establish a mission there. The total receipts of the middle states district are $202,091, a shrinkage of $3,876. The raising of about $2000,000 for Christian education within the bounds of the middle states district, chiefly In Connecticut and New York, and large sums for other worthy objects |8 said to explain the shrinkage.
