Result of the Secret Maneuvers of the
German Warships.
BERLIN, Sept. 19-Never before in
their history have the German naval
maneuvres, either in the Baltic or the
German ocean, been conducted with so
much secrecy as during the autum of
the present year, to prevent, as far as
possible, accurate reports of the ev0-
lutions reaching the press. The man
euvres, which lasted three weeks, were
ended last Tuesday at Heligoland. The
evolutions there commenced on Sun
day, and consisted in an attempt on the
part of seven ships, including three
huge ironclads, to effect a landing, but
they were driven off by the effective
fire from battery of howitzers placed
there last summer by the command of
Emperor William. The long range
Krupp fertilization guns were also test
ed by Commodore Stubenrauch, the
commander of the island. 1t was shown
that a single shot from one of these
big guns at a distance of over a mile
can instantly disable the most power
full ironclad On Tuesday night the
fleet was declared hors du combat.
The army maneuvres just concluded
were prolific of fatal and serious acct
dents, owing to the weather and the
bad roads. Count Won Kanits of the
Fourth Dragons had a fatal fall dur
ing charge, and seven other cavalry
officers were seriously injured.

WHALER HIDALGo ASHORE
Will Suffer Heavy Loss Unless
Outfit is Saved.


SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 15.-News
reached this city today by private let
ter to the effect that the ancient whal-
ing brig Hidalgo, which is owned here,
is ashore at Point Hope, on the Bering
sea coast
The letter was sent to the firm OF
Bruce, Bovine & Co., who, with Captain
Lew Williams of Oakland, owned the
vessel. The writer was a Point Hope
trader, who deals with the firm. His
missive was painfully brief, simply re-
lating the fact that the venerable
whaler was ashore. The owners be-
lieve they are safe in inferring. how
ever, that Captain Clifford and his men
experienced no difficulty in getting
safely to land The theory of the
owners is that the Hidalgo was caught
in an ice pack and forced upon the
beach. If this is the case they believe
they will have chance to save the
briggs valuable outfit, even though the
vessel herself may be given up for lost.
The Hidalgo was probably the oldest
whaler on the Coast She was built in
1885 at East Machias, Me After a few
years of service as a trader on the
Atlantic coast she was brought to this
side, and for long time was engaged
in the lumber trade between this port
and Eureka. Then she was converted
into whaler and has ever since been
going up to the Arctic regularly every
season. The Hidalgo only registered
