WASHINGTON. Oct. I-V-The Schley court of inquiry Ik id but !: session today, adjourning at I o'clock until Monday la order to sive those erad in the. Inquiry an opportunity for recuperation. Captain Chiuwkk conclud d his testimony, begun yest -rday, and Lieutenant Commander Sidney A. Staunton, who nerved on the New York as an as.-dstant to Captain Chadwick u chief of staff for Admiral Sampson, and Li. ut. Nathan C. Twining, formerly of the Iowa, wirj introduced as new witnesses. Commander Staunion s testimony dealt largely with dispatches forwarded by Admiral Sampson to Commodore: Schley, ami while ho was under t xainlnation ilr. Hayner outlined a contention in behalf of Admiral Schley to the effect that the dispatch written on May -7 was the Iirst positiv notice that the commander-in-chk-f hud given Commodore Schley of the Spanish fleet being in Cue harbor at Santiago. Lieutenant Twining said in his testimony that while the flying siiuadron occupied a position of from three to live miles out from Cienftiegos during the daytime, the distance was increased to from seven to Dine miles at night. He was in charge of the eisht-Inch uns during the bombardment ot' the Cristobal Colon on May öl. and ho said that all the phots from the American fleet fell .short of the mark. Near the tltixn ot the day's m-nsion Juli;e 'Advocate Lemiy und Mr. Hayner became engaged In a controversy over the admissibility at that time of a chart showing the 8pti of thj vessels of the Hying tiuaUron, and when Mr. Hayner made a statement concerning the matter to be introduced the judij advocate took exception to Its reception, saying Mr. Hayner s summary might be inaccurate, as other statements mndf by him. referring especially to the contents of documents presented, had Leen. Mr. Hayner resented the expression nd replied to the elTect that if uttered outside of the courtroom he would fay that It was false. Before the court adjourntd loth Mr. Rayner and Captain Lemly made statements concerning the incident to the court, and Admiral Dewey expressed the opinion that Captain Lcrnly's explanation tdiould be satisfactory to .Mr. Hayner. CHADWICK EXAMINED GAIN. When Captain Chadwick took the stand this morning Mr. Hayner formally addressed the court requesting permission to tisk two questions which he outlined, lie tailed attention to a question put to Captain Chadwick yesterday concerning a telegram of congratulation which Admiral Hamjison had sent to Commodore Schley on IMay 'i. lie had asked the witness if lie
TemtratjeiTil that message, and the witness
Lad-renli'd that he 'did remember it vcrv
well, and adding, "Itecau.se I protested Bgainst his congratulations." Mr. Hayner said that this last expression was purely voluntary or Captain Chad"wlck's part and was not necessary in reponas to the inquiry. The questions, which lie stated to the court, were as follows: "First When did you first learn of the existence of dispatch No. ?" "Second Did you then, in protesting n gainst the sending of this congratulatory dispatch, refer to his blockade of CionfueKOf in dispatch No. 5?" Admiral Dewey stated the court had no objection to tlv; questions, and Captain Lemly said he would not object, providing lie could croH-xamln on the points raised. Mr. Hayner did r.ot concede this Tight, but before the point was decided Mr. Itayncr asked his first question as previously given to the court. After reading the dispatch in question the witness .said: I TrdH informed of it purport at the time It was snt to the Marblehead." "Did you see it when it was sent to the ilarblehead?" "I did not read it.' "When did you first read it :" "I did r.ot read the original dL-pateh until the answer was received from Commodore Schley, brought by the ilawk." "Wasn't that on May IX when your ship was at a point between Havana and Cape l'rancis. in the vicinity of Cape I'edras?" "Yes." "Did you have the blockade of Cienfuegos In mind when you protested against the tending of the congratulatory dispatch?" "May I ask if you mean 1 had that only In mind?" "1 do not mean that. I mean whether you liari it in mind at all." "I can say I had it partly." After Mr. Hayner had l'ormallv asked his second question Captain Chadwick offered a written reply, but Mr. Hayner objected, ayiug: "I must lirst read what ho has written before he answers. It might be something very objectionable. Suppose h lid protest, liow did that affect the case? "What we wanted !s the congratulatory disjatcn. Now ho brings in something entirely different. If the witness in answer to my second question says ycs' or 'no 3 won't object, but if he says anything else 1 would like to have the opportunity of teeing what he lias written." Captain Chadwick then tore up his written reply and answered verbally; "I had it jartly In mind." On redirect examination Mr. Ilanna brought out the information that the telegram of congratulation of Commodore Schley had ben based partly cm the rapture of a collier with coal for the Spanish JWt. which rapture was made by Captain SigM-cc. Captam Chadwic k also said that he had drafted Admiral Sampson's second Mspntch of May 1. the one sent from Havana, and while the dispatch from Key "West, designated as No. ,. was sent at r. o'clock, the second was sent between 5 and 6 o'clock. Captain Chadwick was then excused. Lieutenant Commander Sidney A. Staunton was called next. Hefore the witness took his seat Judue Advocate Lemly aski d nd received permission to put in as cvirinre Admiral Sampson's ottlcial report mde at (Juar.tan.imo bay Aug. 2, lDs STAl NTON S T EST I MON V. Lieutenant Commander Staunton related the particulars of his securing information of the pretence of Ccrvcra's fleet at Santiago. lie said that while the fleet under Admiral Sampson lay at Key West oa the morning of Miy 2) he went ashore. "While lu the otlke of Commodore. H mey he said that Captain Allen, of the sin il office, had called hint aside and told lira that he had reo Ivcd information of t'ao presence of the Spani.-h fleet at Santiago which be believed to b correct.

The information came from an cinp'.ove of the telegraph ollic at HavaiM, who could only fend liia information at o'clock wheii others were ;ir?it from th otü.-e tl:re.

Tlie admiral accordingly hd called up the Hav.k and forwarded h;a dispatcher to Commodore Echley. Captain Lemly Tell the court fully from what ourre tho Inform;! lien was received concerning th arrival of Cervera's fleet in Santiago. I would like yr-.i to identify t;e dispatch put Into cipher at that time, to which you refer. "The d:patrn f referred to a hai:ig ben drawn up i- Captain Cpadwiefc m my yrejtiite i3 the d:it' h known as the
memorandum that accompanied dispatch No. S." Mr. Hayner-Thc Hawk carried No. S-is that right? "The captain of the Hawk was called on board and I remember his Instructions were to proceed with all speed until h" met tlv? Vesuvius and transmit the dispatch to her. as she was a faster vessel. As to whether No. 8 w.i3 Inclosed with this, I was not secretary and did not Inclose it." "When did the Hawk leave?" "She left the Havana blockade some distance west of Havana about dusk on M' -1. probably about half-past "." "Then you received this information cat May "J, at half-pst in the morning, and the Hawk left at dusk, May HI?" "That Is correct." The witness snid in reply to questions that the memoranda beginning "The inclosed instructions will reach you" had not been sent bv the Iowa, as the dispatch as dated May 21, and the Iowa had left on the dav previous. Mr. Hayner-Was r.ot the Hawk th first vessel that carried that memorandum? TIIK CONFIRMATORY DISPATCH. "To the best of my knowledge, the Hawk was the iirst and only vessel that carried that memorandum," replied the witness. "The Hawk left on May 21 and the first information you had was about half-past S or 9 o'clork on the 20th. When did you get this second conJlrmatory information you speak of?" "I got It on shore at Key West about 7 o'clock on the evening of May 20." "Then the confirmatory dispatch, as I understand it, was reecdved some twentyfour hours before the Hawk left with this memorandum to Commodore Schley. Is that right?" "Yes. at Key West; and the Hawk was sent from Havana." "Can you give me any subsequent dispatches or memorandum that passed between Admiral Sampson and Commodore Schley in reference to the Spanish squadion bfing at Santiago?" "I do not think I can refer you to any." After further effort on Mr. Rayner's part to elicit information as to correspondence between the two commanders and objection on the part of Mr. Hanna to bringing in dispatches which had no immediate bearing upon Commodore Schley's conduct, Mr. Hayner said there was no communication between them between May 21 and May 27. He then quoted the dispatch of May 21 as the flrst positive knowledge conveyed to Commodore Schley of the presence of the fleet at Santiago. This dispatch, which was dated "United States flagship New York. St. Nicholas channel. May 27. ISjS." follows: "Sir Every report, and particularly daily confidential reports, received at Key West from Havana state Spanish squadron has been In Santiago de Cuba from the lüth to the 2Cth instar t, inclusive, the 2Tth being the date of the last report received. You will pleaee proceed with all possible dispatch to Santiago to blockade that port, if, on arrival there, you receive positive Information of the Spanish ships having left, you will follow them In pursuit. Very respectfully, W. T. SAMPSON." Mr. Hanna-What is the first positive order? Mr. Hayner May 27. Mr. Hanna Did he receive it on the 27th? Mr. Hayner He never received it on the 27th (after being prompted by Admiral Schley. He got it on June 10. Mr. Hanna How is it possible, then, he can be affected by an order after all that lapse of time? Mr. Hayner That is just what we want to prove, that he had no orders except those contained in dispatches Xos. 7 and 8. ADM ITTEL) AS EVIDENCE. Mr. Hayner then repeated his desire to ofur the dispatch of May 27 in evidence, and after a colloquy between Mr. Hayner and Judge Advocate Lemly Mr. Hanna remarked that there was no objection to putting it in except that it was "obviously intended to reflect on a person who is not under inquiry." To this Mr. Hayner responded that it was not intended to reflect on any one, but that it was Intended "to prevent a reflection on Commodore Schley." It was decided that the dispilch was already in evidence, and Mr. Hanna took the witrirss for redirect examination. He began by asking if he knew the reason for tlit lapse of live or six days between the sending of dispatches by the HawK and the Wasp. To this Inquiry Mr. Hayner objected, arid there was quite a spirited argument on the part of counsel on both sides as to th? admissibility of the question. The incident was closed by the withdrawal of the question. At this stage of the proceedings Captain Lemly introduced as a part of the record two letters from Commodore Schley to Admiral Sampson, both dated May 23. the iirst saying that he was by no means satistied that the Spanish squadron was r.ot at Cienfmgos. and the second telling ot the information he had received through the British steamer Adula. He said that he presented them because they bear upon this matter of the receipt of dispatches. A somewhat exciting incident here arose between Judge Advocate Lemly and Mr. Hayner. When Lieutenant Commander Scaunton v;a.s excused Mr. Hayner ask'td leave to present as evidence a supplementary chart prepared by Lieutenant Dyson, of thi Hurcau of Steam Engineering, showing the speed of tho vessels of the flylnc squadron. Captain Lemly objected on the ground that this evidence was not pertinent at this stage of the proceedings. Mr. Hayner replied that it had been agreed between counsel that it should be put in, and he wanted to introduce it before the testimony got too far away from the evidence bearing upon the coal supply. Captain Lemly said he had a witness present and wished to proceed with the taking of verbal testimony. Admiral Dewey What objection is there? Captain Lemly I do not think it is the time to do it, sir. Admiral Dewey The witness can come down Monday. Cnless there Is some reason why it should not go in now it is a courtesy due to the counsel. What objection is there? We want to know the objection. TILT IIETWEEN COUNSEL. Mr. Hayner here undertook to read a statement accompanying the chart, when Captain Lemly, rising, addressed the court, saying with reference to Mr. Hayner: "He is not accurate in his statements, if the court pleases. On the contrary, he is very inaccurate. He holds a paper before him and reads what is not on that paper. He has repeatedly done it." There was a ripple of laughter through the room when this statement was made and some persons Inside the railing joined in it. but it was noticed that Mr. Hayner did not accept the remark as intended to be good natured. His face was flushed when he replied, which he did without rising, saying: "If he states that outside tho court 1 will say it is false." Captain Lemly If he states that outside of tho court It is another matter, but if ho states it ra the court it is highly improper. While counsel were still talking back and forth at each other Admiral Dewey arose and administered the oath to the next witness, Lieut. Nathan C. Twining, formerly of the battleship Iowa, who had been waiting to bo railed, while the colloquy was In progress. Lieutenant Twining's testimony covered points already brought out as to the siege of Cienfuegos and the bombardment of tho Cristobal Colon in the harbor at Santiago on May öl. When Lieutenant Twining had concluded and the court was about to adjourn Mr. Hayner aro.-e. and. addressing the court, said: "I would like to call th attention of tho court to what I consider a very disagreeable attack from the judge advocate. I have conducted myself with the utmost -deg ret; of courtesy and politeness. It has not occurred once, but over and over again, in this case. The lest 1 it tie objection that comes in brings in the most irritable humor possihle on his part. All 1 ask is this: He made a statement this morning whieh reflected on me; that we lead th'incs to the c ourt that did not exist, and did not read things that did exist. Any man with any degree of sensibility would object to that, and I do not think my brother w.nnts that statement to go to the ourt. They have tried the case Impartially and fairly. There has been no statement about their trial of the case at all. but when I hae heard a report, not thinking tho List part would heir or. the case, the point was made that I did not read the whole of it. Thsf thing are very objectionable to Admiral Schley and myself, and I think tie- g.otieniHn ctwes us a statement in icganl to that." Captain lmly If the court please, I have to stand upon the record in this matter. It wa. not my intention to offensive, and when counsel speak? of my temper I nsut say to him: "Neighbor, ren;oe the beam front our own eye before von attempt to take the mote, out of mine." I referred more particularly this morning to the matter of the written question which he presented and then ied the question differently, without any intention of giving otfer.se, but in tho earnestness of debate. Admiral Dewey I think that ought to be fuouuh. The statement of the judge, adoeite should be enough. The court understands thnt the judge advocate had no intention of wounding the feelings of either tf you. and the court now adjourns. Aecordlnglv. at 1 o'clock, the court adjourned until Monday.

LONDON. Oct. 12. The South African campaign has a curious effect on British generals. Public attention is centered on General Buller's extraordinary exhibition, while society is gossiping about the remarkable action of another general. This one Is a knight commander of the Hath, holding a high command in South Africa. He is over sixty years of age, has been a widower for two years and has engaged himself by letter to marry a woman of fifty whom he has not seen for twenty years. The bride-elect, who i3 an Irish woman, is preparing to go out to South Africa. As for General Duller, he seems to have forever shattered every vestige of his reputation. In his speech he complained of the general criticisms, especially in the newspapers, of himself. He admitted he had advised Gen. Sir George White that it would be necessary possibly to surrender Ladysmith, but bearing in mind all tho circumstances of the case, he was quite prepared to let the public judge of the Justifiability of the newspaper attacks. A. representative of the Associated Press learns that previous to General Buller's speech of Thursday he had received several plain hints from the War Omce expressing the hope that ho would not accept invitations to make speeches. His appointment to the command of an army corps was made in a spirit of generosity, it was thought that General Bulle. could not do much harm in the two years remaining before he retired. Failure to appoint him would have signified a public disgrace, which the War Office was not willing to inflict on him, believing that General Bulicr had done l is duty to the best of his ability. XXX One of the highest officials connected wilh the administration of the army said to a representative of the Associated Press: "The utilitarian spirit of the age has taken away those sinecures, such as Governor of Tilbury and commander-in-chief of Betwick, with which, a hundred years ago, Buller might be shelved and at the same time rewarded. We had no alternative but to reward General Buller's long and conscientious period of service by kicking him out or giving him a command which his rank demanded. Of the two evils we choso what we thought was the least. Our justification is. perhaps, somewhat sentimental, but no army can be run without a certain amount of sentiment. "As for the public dissatisfaction with our progress in South Africa, 1 fear that Ird Hoberts and other optimistic prophets are, unintentionally, more to blame than any one else. No one got up and said the Burmah war was over or that it would be over in a foolishly short space of time. It lasted nearly four years, and the British publie took it as a matter of course. The South African war has probably got another two years to run, developing, like the Burmah affair, into a subaltern's campaign. Continual local disturbances are being put down by the small garrisons. To supervise such work we know of no one better than Lord Kitchener. His chief difficulty, which seems to have missed the attention of the critics, is that, having iioncombatants populating the war area, he is prohibited from destroying supplies to any degree of military thoroughness. If we could concentrate or deport the natives I think an effective devastation would quickly etd the campaign." xxx Cecil Rhodes, whose part in politics and empire making is vividly recalled by the Schnadhorst letters, is living almost absolutely alone at a quiet hotel on a diet and with the attentions of a man who is seriously ill. There is no doubt that he is suffering from heart disease and is no longer the robust man of former times, yet he never missed a day this week at the office of the British Chartered South African Company, burying himself in details and conducting long, tedious mee-tlngs without complaint or mention of his ill health. After these duties, however. In the quiet of his hotel, he seems to become almost a wreck, "like a man liable to go off at any moment." as one of his few visitors said on coming out from Iiis room. Usually Mr. Rhodes Is supremely indifferent to public sentiment, preferring rather to ride roughshod over criticism, but in the matter of the Schnadhorst letters he has expressed keenest desire to hear public comment. His efforts, however, have met with slight success. xxx Advices from Cape Town, dated to-day, say: "Sensational developments arc expected from a case which was heard in the Supreme Court to-day in which Thomas Louw obtained judgment in 1,100 against Princess Radzlwill. The money was advanced on a promissory note for 2.000 drawn by the princess and purporting to have been indorsed by Cecil Rhodes. "The latter's lawyer made an aflidavit to the effect that lie had written to Mr. Rhodes on the subject and that Mr. Rhodes repudiated the indorsement and all knowledge of the affair. The court allowed the case as against Mr. Rhodes to stand over until Nov. 1 pending the arrival of Mr. Rhedes' affidavits. Princess Radzlwill. who was present in court, has been a frequent visitor in South Africa, and the case has aroused all the greater interest because the princess has apparently always been on friendly terms with Mr. Rhodes and tho circles of which he was the leader." XXX The London Times of Aug. 6 published the following: "We understand that attempts have b?en made to negotiate certain promissory notes purporting to have been indorsed by Mr. Cecil Rhodes. Wo are instructed to state that if any such instruments are ia circulation they are forgeries." This notice was Inserted by B. A. llawkesley, counsel for Mr. Rhodes. Mr. Hawkesloy said that he had In aid early in August that somebody was trying to pass such notes. "Mr. Rhodes." said Mr. Hawkesloy. "nevr siens notes. If he wants to give money away he gives a check. The note at Cape Town is. of course, a forgery. Who forged it. of course, I cannot .say, but whoever did so ought to be held oil that charge. Mr. Louw. on whom tho note was passed, is a tradesman. The mere fact that only JlI.ISo was paid shows there was something rlshy in the transaction." Princess Rndziwill is the Prineess Catherine who lived at the Carlton Hotel. London, in luxurious style. Mr. Rhodes leaves here for Italy on Sunday. c.rR nr.nr.Ls i:m:ci rr.n.

The Llberlan officials who arrived in England early in August with tho object of obtaining from Great Britain the right to navigate the Manna river, havo been successful, despite the fact that Great Britain was unwilling at first to grant the request of the republic. In addition to this, the envoys discussed with the Colonial Office further and more important propositions. These were put in the form of a memorandum, which is now being submitted to the Liberian government. If, as is thought most probable, this memorandum is ratitied, Liberia's international status will be materially strengthened. Sultan Threatened by Student. CONSTANTINOPLE, Oct. 12.
