THE IXDIAXAPO I A S JOURXAT WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 23. 1901.

to the court ty Hon. I.-Idor Hayner. assistant counsel. In the following language: " I have u very y:u! a nnoum erne nt to mike to tht court. I have Just heard of the "death of Judge Wilson. I kft him at 1') o'clock this m..rnir.i;. lii;hty irulisp .- 1. 1 was with him until lat iast niht. I saw him this morning at S o'clock anl K ft him at 1. We have conrirnvd the rumor through the teb phone that he has just filer! at the Shon ham Hot I. and I would r-'spectfully ask the court, if it inputs with ti: api'ioval of the court, to adjourn fr t'V(!.lV." Admiral Dewey said: "I have to anflounce that, owing to the death of Jud,;e W'ljon. of counsel. th court will aljourn fur to-day until to-morrow morning." Mr. Kaynor said that as far as he could now the counsel for Admiral S' hl y would be. ready to proceed to-morrow morning, but he adUd that there would he a desire to attend the funeral when it occurred. Admiral Lewey and Captain Lemly agreed that this d tail could he agreed to later. The arn-junccmcnt of Judge Wilsons death created consternation, not only t moug members of the court, but among the spectators, and some minutes elapsed before, people pr'T.erally would accept the report. The judge bad bern j res nt at the court all day ytsterday, and while he had rot participated to any prent extent in the pro ef dlnss. li- h;ol appeared physically ectiv; ana wide-awake to all that was said i;nd done. The report first reached Mr. Kaynor in the shape of a rurnor a minute or two after Machinist A. Ii. Claxton. of the Texas, the second witness, bad been present on the stand. Captain Parker and Mr. Teague, of Admiral Schley's counsel, immediately went to the telephone. They returned in a few moments-, saying that the report had been confirmed. Mr. Kaynor then made his announcement to the court ami asked an adjournment for the day. All the members of the court, including counsel for the government and for Admiral Schley, expressed the utmost surprise and sorrow over the news, while Admiral Schley himself said: The news is .so shocking that I cannot trust myself to give expression to my estimate of the man. I can- only say that I have lost not only a clear-headed and brllllan: counsel, but also a dear and muchbeloved friend. I am shocked beyond measure at the news, and lind myself almost unable to accept the report." It wa.' announced at the courtroom that Judge Wilson's death had occurred at l:i o'clock, at the Shoreman Hotel, and that it had been due to acute Indigestion und kidney affection. The proceedings of the court were rendered very brief by the announcement of Judge Wilson's death. Commanders Hates and Schroeder were recalled to listen to the reading of the ortU ial report of their testimony as given yesterday, and Firstclass Machinist A. Ii. Claxton, of this city, who had charge of the port engine of thn Texas on the day of the battle of Santiago, had Just taken the stand when the announcement of Judge Wilson': Oath, was received. It had been expected by the government that Mr. Claxton would confirm the statements of Engineer Kates concerning- the reversal of the er.gines of the Texas. During the short time? he was on the stand Engineer Hates was asked a few questions. One of these was by Captain Parker, and was in regard to the steam log of the Texas. In reply to the first inquiry Commander Hates said the loir hail been written up the day after the "battle. The other questions were by the court and re 1 1 ted first to the coal supply ot the Texas on May 2. IVs. and second, to tho condition of the machinery of the Texas on the olst of that month. It had been the intention of the court ti call Admiral Cotton. Captain Wise and others connected with the government fiout ship.- immediately after the discharge of Machinist Claxton. Admiral Dewey said he did not thinK tno proceedings of the court would be interfered with greatly by Judge Wilson's deMh. There would be. he added, another adjournr.'ent on arcount of the funeral, but beyond that he did not anticipate there would bj further cessation of the proceeding. "Judge Wilson's deth." h said, "is a severe loss. It is a loss not only to tho community at largo, but especially to the court at this time. His Aini.ioillty, conservatism and long experience in publi-j affairs rendered his presence here most acceptable. Personally, too. I have suffered m severe bereavement In his death. We had been friends for twenty-tive years md I had come to both leve and respect him for his many excellent qualities of ntxd and heart." All the members of the court lingered about the courtroom for almost an hour after adjournment and many vi-!tors also retained their seats for a greater length of time.

Relieved to Re Cause of Whitney's Retirement front Enslih Turf. LONDON, Sept. 24. The announced retirement of William C. Whitney from the English turf occasions regret, but hardly surprises those who have noticed the recent trend of events. There is a widespread feeling that behind Mr. Whitney's published reasons for his withdrawal Is the realization of the fact that the attitude of the British turf authorities toward Americans Is no longer marked by the absolute impartiality which characterized their conduct prior to the pre-eminence of American owners, horses, trainers and jockeys. During the recent season complaints have been frequent that the Amricun horses were too heavily handleipjed. that the jockeys were harhly treated, and, that interferences during the races were whitewashed which would not have been tolerated on the

It la noted, came closely after the receipt of a detailed report of the treatment accorded to Volodyovski in the St. Leger. The Daily Telegraph remarks that Mr. Whitney's decision must have been reached verv suddenb. seeing that, only on Sept. 17, Mr. Whitney nominated yearlings - for the races of 1904 and 1IHI5. The Telegraph adds: "Some American owners have not made themselves acceptable to thi3 coun-. try, but Mr. Whitney is one of the exceptions that go to prove the rule." The Sportsman says: "His retirement will be received with regret by all British sportsmen." WILL PLAY BALL HERE NATIONAL AXD AMERICAN PLAYERS "WILL MEKT OCT. 12.
