SAILED AT NOON.
Higginson's Fleet Now in Search OF
the Enemy.

ROckpOrt. Mass, Aug. 20.-The
unique war game in which the rival
fleets of Admiral Francis /. Higginsun
and Commander John z. Pillsbury are
pitted against each other began at noon
today. The North Atlantic coast is now
threatened by a theoretically powerful
squadron of hostile ships. from the al
tacks of which equally able fleet
will attempt to defend. This is the first
series of maneuvers in which the ships
will participate. and il viii be under
the direction of the navy department
alone. Such practice as follows the
conclusion of this first contest will be
the joint work OF the army and navy
departments.
Commander Pillsbury's fleet which is
known as the White squadron, sailed
from Provincetown on Monday and is
now at sea Its present whereabou is
unknown TO Admiral Higginson, whose
force is known as the Blue squadron.
1t is understood that the fleet which
made its appearance in this harbor
last Saturday would under rules of the
contest remain here until after noon
today. At any time after that hour
Admiral HigginsOn will be free to sail
In search of the enemy.
The Object Sought.
II will be the object of the white
squadron TO effect landing at some
unfortitied place along the coast as
soon as possible after this fixed hour
and occupy the position without inter-
ference for at least six hours. 1t is the
duty OF the defending fleet to prevent
the invaders from accomplishing their
purpose. If Admiral Higgginson finds
the vessels before they can get within
striking distance the victory is with
him. If Pillsbury with his ships should
eiude Higginson and land his force he
must occupy the place he has captured
and be free from discovery during the
six hours period agreed upon II he is
located before this time limit expires IL
is scored as a defeat for him

Effect of Injunction.

The Gates people disavow any con-
nection with Bartlett or knowledge of
his move. The effect of this injunc
ton will be TO stop the fight until the
Injunction is dissolved, either by an
answer made to it or by higher au-
thority than the district court Gates
and all the shareholders in the Colo
RADIO Fuel & Iron company that Gates
is presumed to represent are made de-
PENDANTS in the action. Other stock
holders, who, it is averred, are being
made to lose money by the quarrel over
the control of the company, are in
vited to join the plaintiff, Bartlett, in
his action to stop the quarrel until the
court determines the merits of the
case.
One effect of the injunction, unless
il is dissolved, is to continue OsgoOd,
Kebler and the rest of the present
regime in office until their successors
are chosen. The general belief is that
compromise will spring from the
Bartlett Injunction.
A large force of deputy sheriffs is at
the Boston block headquarters of the
Colorado Fuel & Iron company pre-
pared for any emergency.

TELEGRAPH THE Ih'htNE-I
Washington, Dec. 23.-Strong opposition has
developed against the Newfoundland reciprocity
treaty which is now in the Committee on For
eign Relations. and unless its friends produce
convincing evidence in its favor its chance of
ratification will be dubious
delegation of citizens of Gloucester, Mass,
who testified before the committee, represented
that under the terms of the Hay-Bond conven-
ton the fishing industry of Gloucester would be
practically ruined, and that nursery for the
navy" the New-England fisheries would be
sadly crippled This testimony produced a
strong impression on the committee, winch IS
now anxious to learn what the friends of the
treaty have to offer.
For the purpose of giving those persons who
desire its ratification opportunity to express
their views Wednesday, January 8, has been set
for further heari 1gs. strong plea for cheaper
fish will be made at that time. the argument
being that everything which makes for less ex-
pensive food is desirable. 1t is understood that
the packing industries will be represented before
the committee as they would be materially ben
Gifted by the operation of the new treaty. AT
the present time NewfoundlandS imports from
this country amount to approximately S2,UOO.OOu
