ADMIEAL SCHLEY DROPS DEAD.
fero of Santiago Expires in New York
Street-Was Stricken With
Apoplexy.
New York, Oct. 2.--Unrecognized by
Ssingle person in the curious, throng
hat rushed to his aid, Rear Admiral
Vnfield Scott Schley, the hero of the
aval battle of Santiago, United
tates navy, retired, fell dead in front
f the Berkeley lyceum on West 44th
treet, this afternoon. The death 01
his notable figure In the naval nis
ory of the nation was for the moment
hat of an unknown man in a strange
rowd. The admiral's sudden death Is
ttributed to cerebral hemorrhage,
rhich attacked him shortly after he,
ith Mrs. Schley, rei..ed New York
his morning, from a visit to Mount
Disco, and had called at the New York
acht club for his mail.
As the admiral was walking through
Vest 44th street a passerby who saw
im stagger graspea nis arm and
ied to support 'him. Despite the
tranger's service, however, the ad
ural fell helpless to the street and a
shysician, who pressed his way
brough the crowd that quickly gath
red, pronounced him dead.
Admiral Schley's Career.
Admiral Schley was born in Fred
rick county, Maryland, in 1839. Af
er graduating at Annapolis in 1860
nd serving during the Civil war in
iinor capacities, he. was commnis:Jon
d in 1866 as lieutenant commander.
At the outset of the Spanish-Amer
san war, in 1898, Schley was placed
a command of wliav, was known as
ae flying squadron, which sailed from
ortress Monroe to cooperate with
dmiral Sampson in operations in the
aribbean Sea. Undxer orders from
ampson, he steamed through the
uaan passage to the vicinity of
antiago while Sampson passed
round the east end of the island.
Schley's squadron stood before
antiago some days and was about to
save, when it was announced that
A junction V:Ith '-pson occurred
almost immediately after, and on
.Tuly 3, JS98, Cervera undertook to
escape. At the time, Sampson aboard
his flagship, the New York, was some
miles away, at Sibcmey, In conference
with Gen. Shafter. An engagement
followed, in which Sc. ley's flagship,
the Brooklyn, took an active part.
After the war closed numerous
charges were made that Schley had
been guilty of inefficiency, if not cow-,
ardice, and he asked a court of in
quiry. After a prolonged period he
was acquitted, but fated of the meas
ure of advancement which his friends
had claimed was his nue. He was re
tired October 9, 1910, as a rear ad
miral.
