SHAM BATTLE DISPUTE.

Douat as to the Result of the Mimic
Fight OF Newport.
NEWPORT, R. r, Sept 25.-The result
of last nights sham battle between the
torpedo boats and the blue fleet under
Rear Admiral Farquhar and the ships of
the red feet and the shore batteries is
still in doubt and there will be nothing
definite known for day at least.
Capt. c. II. Stockton said at the War
College this morning that the affair was
most successfully carried out, but there
was much to be done over before it
could be said which side was the win
ner The captain said that while ssv
eraf of the torpedo boats maintained
that they had passed Fort Greble, the
umpire at that point asserts that all four
boats were put out of eo-sm;ssion- If
that is So the New York was net tor
pedoed. The assertion that the Msssa-
chusetts was torpedoed by the Dahlgren
is also disputed by those on board the
battleship-
There is little doubt, however. that the
feet was technically destroyed in trying 10
force a passage of the forts. The board of
arhitrament will meet this afternoon to be-
gin its labors and will finish tomorrow.
1t is now the intention of the admiral
to sail with his squadron tomorrow and
the second and final phase IN the problem
will be worked out tonight 1t will con-
sist of an attack on the red fleet out at
sea by the torpedo boat fotilla. This will
be the first time that a fleet has been at
tackled in this manner.
The Holland, under cover of darkness,
will steal out of the, inner harbor and at
tack the flagship New York and the bat
tleship Massachusetts,. This viii be the
most interesting part of the maneuvres
and the results will be closely watched
1t will be the first practical test the Hol-
land has had and the officers on the ships
as seri that they will have no trouble in
king her IN.
The Holland people believe that the
boat Will do more than is expected OF her
and viii have no trouble in getting in on
the ships The representative of the COM
pany says that in last nights running the
gauntlet of the forts the Holland could
have crept upon the forts and hurled dy-
nGmite cartridges over them, putting them
out of commission SO that the ships would
have had a clear entrance
