DEFEAT FOR FLEET.
Half of Admiral Higginson's' Squad.
ron Destroyed in Attack
on Forts.

Headquarters of Gen. Macarthur,
Fort Trumbull, New London, Conn,
Sept, 2.-1Ialf of Rear Admiral Hig-
ginson's squadron attacked Forts
Niche, Wright and Terry at 1920 last
(Monday) evening and was destroyed.
A furious battle was fought, every
battery in the forts named and every
gun in the fleets being brought into
action. The battle ragged for fifty
minutes, and when the firing ceased
army officers declared that every ship
in Rear Admiral Higginson's squadron
had been put out of action. 1t is not
yet known whether Rear Admiral Ilig-
ginson intended a real attack on the
forts as part of the war game pro-
gramme. Many are inclined to think
it was simply preliminary demon
stration.
The result of the operations Monday
and Monday night seems to be tri-
umph for the army. The navy captured
Block Island yesterday morning, land
ed 600 marines and estroyed all cable
and telephone communications, cap
turing all signal men but one. Lieut..
Sears escaped, but in spite of all eff
forts to find him managed to keep up
communication with headquarters all
day from a concealed station.
Woods Hole, Mass, was captured
by the Olympic yesterday morning and
the telegraph. telephone and cable
lines destroyed, thus cutting off all
communication with Martha's Vine
yard.
Just before midnight Monday night
four vessels tried to storm Prices
Neck signal station, near Narragan
sett. and their gun fire against that
point was followed by 96 shots from
Fort Adams. So we'll placed were
some of the latter that it is believed
at the fort that two of the vessels
were put out of action. The vessels re-
tired towards the westward.
The attack on the forts guarding
the entrance to Lcng Island sound be-
gan soon after dark. At 10: 20 Rear Ad-
miral Higginson's feet was reported
as passing the lighthouse here. At
the same moment came a message stat
ing that the battleships had opened
on Fort Niche at Gull island with
their heavy guns. Fort Wright opened
fire at 1920 on battleship believed
to be the Indiana and steaming rapidly
toward Fort Terry on the Long Island
sound side. Afterward the guns of
Fort Terry were heard apparently
trained on the battleship. A message
was received short time ago from
the signal station at Fort Mansfield
announcing that the whole fleet was
coming toward Fishers island. The
ships were discovered by the search.
lights and the fire of three forts con.
centrated on them. The ships with.
drew after an engagement lasting
about ten minutes. The result is in
doubt.

PLUNGED DOWN STEEP BANK.
Twcnty-One Killed and Eighty
One Injured.

birmingham, Ala, Sept. 2.-While
rounding a curve on a high embanlt-
ment near Berry, Ala, at $3.50 o'clock
Monday morning the engine and four
cars of an excursion train on
branch of the Southern railway
leaped from the track and rolled
over and over, smashing the coaches
into kindling wood and causing the
instant death of 21 persons and the
injury of 81 others. Physicians say
at least 20 of the injured cannot
live. With the exception of II. NJ.
Dudley, trainmaster of the Southern
railway, living at Birmingham, and
Roscoe Shelby, of Columbus, Miss,
all of the dead and injured are ne
groes who had taken advantage of
excursion rates from points in Mis-
sissippi TO Birmingham.
When the wreck occurred the train
was running at the rate of 80 miles an
hour, and just started around curve
on top of 60-foot embankment. With
out warning, the tender of the engine
suddenly left the track, jerking the
engine and the first four cars with it.
There were ten cars to the excursion
train, but the fourth broke loose from
the fifth, and with the heavy engine
plunged down the steep incline. The
cars. which were packed with passen-
gers, turned completely over several
tines, and were crushed like egg shells,
killing and crippl:ng the inmates. Per-
sons who have returned from the scene
of the wreck say it is indescribable.
The dead bodies of the negroes. were
scattered in every direction, and the
moans and appeals for help from the
wounded were heartrending.

VERMONT TOUR ENDS.
President Roosevelt Completes His
Journey Through the Green
Mountain state,

East Northfield, Mass. Sept. g.
President Roosevelt on Monday con-
cluded his tour through Vermont at
Brattleboro and is spending the
night here at Northfield. The recep-
tion accorded him at Brattleboro
was among the prettiest, most we'll
conducted and most enthusiastic he
has received in his tour of New Eng
land. Upon arriving at the station
he was met by company of infan-
try, headed by a band and es-
corted to the common, where he de-
livered n brief address in which he
spoke of Abraham Lincoln as the
man of the hour in the great civil
war.
The presidents progress through
Brattleboro was continI Gus ova-
ton. On the line OF march his car
riage was stopped in front of the
leading hotel and from the balcony
men, women and children showered
loose flowers and bouquets upon him.
Arriving at the common, where he
delivered his address, the pavilion
steps were strewn with flowers by
little girls who were drawn up on
both sides.
Labor day was generally celebrated
throughout the state. Wherever the
train stopped holiday crowds were out
to extend the president a welcome.
The heat was excessive but the presi-
dent seemed to suffer but little from
it's effects. His remarks on the SUBJ
ject of labor were confined mostly to
tribute to the people of Vermont,
and he expressed his pleasure at be-
ing greeted by the Representatives of
organized labor, because, he said, the
typical American is the man who
works.

STATEMENTS ARE FALSE.
On Authority of President 1t Is De-
nied That Justice shirns
Has Resigned.

East Northfield, Mass, Sept. g.
The attention of the president hav-
ing been called to the published state
ment that Attorney General KnoX's
name was being considered with the
view of appointing him to justice
ship on the supreme bench to succeed
Justice George Shiras, it can be said
on the authority of the president
himself that not only does he not
contemplate such move but Justice
Shiras has not resigned. The presi-
dent classed all such statements as
without the least foundation and
that they only come into his mind
when he sees them in print.
The same published statement also
credits him with having reached the
conclusion to place the construction
of the Isthmian canal under the ju-
risdiction of the army with Gen.
Leonard Wood as chairman of the
canal committee. The president like
wise is authority for the statement
that ne has no intention whatsoever
of changing the civil nature of the
commission.

ignation. He has no statement from
