Bar Harbor-creat Success.

BAR HARBoR. August 26-The grand naval
review today has occupied the attention Of
all. and the village has been decorated.
The weather Is perfect. The water Is
smooth. with scarcely ripple. All the mem
bers OF the KebO Valley club we're invited
BY Secretary Tracy to view the maneuvres
from the Despatch.
On the Despatch were Mrs. Blaine, Park
Goodwin. Col. Goldman. Senator Stewart.
Mrs. George Pendleton Bowler, Mr.. Fish.
Mr.. and Mrs. Barney. Mr.. McLane, Gen.
Alger, Senator Cameron and other dlstin-
gulshed guests.
At 1910 the Despatch with Secretary Tracy
led the way out Of the harbor, followed nv
all the big ships. When outside Egg Rock
the flagship fired the secretarv's salute Of 10
guns and then steamed out to sea followed
by the fleet.
The only complaint was that there was
not enough powder burned. After the r.
turn OF the fleet Admiral Gherardi received
visits OF many friends on the PHILADELPHIA.
The admiral with bis squadron sailed al 9
o'clock tonight for New London. The Dis
patch with Secretary Tracy on board will
sail tomorrow morning. The White Squad

DISASTERS IN GREAT BRITAIN.
Terrible Gales In Englsnd-crops In
ireland Frustrated.

PORTSMOUTH. Eng, August 26.-During
the height OF the gale last night the steam
pinnance belonging to II. NJ. S. Pallas was
swamped and four seamen drowned.
Throughout the night telegraph poles and
wires were swept down everywhere, trees
were uprooted and houses undermined by
the force Of the gale.
A despatch from Southport says that dur.
Ing last nights gale the Norwegian bark
Clifton was wrecked. The crew were saved.
Dispatches from other points on the coast
announce numerous casulties Of minor
Importance.
Information telegraphed here from all
parts Of Ireland shows that the bad weather
has prevailed over 3he British Isles for the
past week or so and has caused terrible In
jury TO the grain crops. Owing to the heavy
and continuous rains harvesting In many
parts Of Ireland has been entirely suspended
and the utmost distress Is apprehended In
some districts. The loss which large num-
bers Of small farmers must necessarily suffer
Is beyond repair this year and must needs
cause recurrence OF the Ill feeling which
was possibly the cause Of many other
troubles The extent to which many OF the
poor farmers In Ireland are suffering through
the raiuy weather may be judged by the fact
that Arch Bishop Walsh has Instructed the
Roman Catholic clergy Of Ireland to pray for
fine weather and to instruct their congrega-
tions to do likewise.
