Sept. 27,â€"Two new wit- nesses were introduced in the Schley court Wednesday. They were Admiral Cotton. who was captain and command- er of the auxiliary cruiser Harvard, and Captain Wise, who commanded the auxiliary cruiser Yale during the Span- 1311 war. Both vessels were used as scouts and both came up with the flying squadron oil santiago on May 27 be- fore the retrograde movement to Key West had begun. Cotton’s Testimony. , Admiral Cotton testified that he had gone aboard Admiral Schley's flagship, the Brooklyn. on that date to take dis- patches to him and said at first that he gave him four or iive dispatches addressed to the commander of the squadron. He afterward modified the statement, saying that probably all but two of these dispatches were addressed to himself (Cotton). but that they con- tained information which he thought should be in Schley‘s possession. Sampson Loeates Carvers. One of these was a copy of a dispatch from Admiral Sampson which had not been printed- in the official records, stating that the Spanish fleet was at Santiago. He also said that coal could have been taken from the Merrimac on May 27. the day on which the retro- grade movement to Key West was be- gun for the purpose of coaiing. Cap- tain Wise testified that on May 27 he signalled Captain Phillip of the Texas his opinion that Admiral Cervera was inside of the harbor at Santiago, but the testimony was ruled outL During the day Admiral Schley an- nounced that he had selected Mr. Ray- ner has his chief counsel to succeed Judge Wilson, deceased. Coallng of the Ships, Detailing a conversation he had with Schley after the delivery of the dis: patches in relation to coallng the ships. Admiral Cotton said Schley told him it had been almost impossible to get coal aboard on account of' the weather, questioning the witness as to the prac~ tlcability 0t coailng the ships at St. Nicholas Mole and Gonaives Channel. Cotton told Sehley small ships could load at the‘Mole, but not the larger ones, but he knew of no reason why they couldn‘t coal at Gonaive. Peremptory Orders to Schley. During Cotton’s visit Schley sig- nalled the ships to report whether they had a supply of coal suilicient to reach Key 4West. and received an at- firmative reply from all. Schley ap- peared greatly relieved at the infor- mation. and soon afterward signalled the ships to prepare to return to Key West. - The dispatch to Cotton from Secre-j tary Long to inform Schley and the! senior officers that the edpartment‘sl information indicated the Spanish di-‘i vision was at Santiago, and that the? “department looks to you to ascertain ‘ if- the enemy is there. and do not leave without decisive action;" was read. Attorney Rayner ealled attention to! the fact that there were some material I changes in the dispatches. as printed in the oaicial reports by the navy de- partment. Wise Follows Cotton. At 3:25 Admiral Cotton was excused and Captain William C. Wise. who was in command or the auxiliary cruiser Yale, was called to the witness stand. He told of his reconnoitering about Santiago harbor on May 22 previous to the arrival of the flying squadron. He said he had not been able to see any- thing of the Spanish fleet. He also told of signalling Captain Philip his belief that the Spanish fleet was in Santiago harbor, p uâ€". .n.-- At 3:55'o‘clock the Schley court ad- journal.- Washington.
