FORTS DESTROY SHIPS.
Army Gets Best of the Navy in Mimic
Engagement.

Admiral Higginson's warships made an
attack on Forts Wright, Niche and Ter
ry Monday night, but after a mimic bat
tie lasting nearly an hour the big shore
batteries had disabled every ship engaged.
Just before midnight four vessels tried
to storm Prices Neck signal station near
Narragansett, and their gun fire against
that point was followed by ninety-six
shots from Fort Adams. The attack on
the forts guarding the entrance 10 Long
Island sound began soon after dark. At
1920 Rear Rdmiral HigginsOn's fleet was
reported as passing the lighthouse of
New London. AT the same moment came
a message stating that the battleships
had opened on Fort Niche at Gull Isl
and with their heavy guns. The forts
had not then returned the fire. At 3 p m.
the Point Judith signal station reported
that Rear Admiral Higginson was send
ing marines ashore to capture that point.
Fort Wright opened fire at 1910 on bat
tleship 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, ap-
parently trained on the battleship. A
message was received from the signal
station at Fort Mansfield announcing that
the whole fleet was coming toward Fish
ers island The ships were discovered by
the searchlights and the fire of three forts
concentrated on Them The ships with
drew after an engagement lasting about
ten minutes.
The batteries of Fort Wright were one
sheet of fame for ten minutes and hun
dreds Of mortars were thrown into the air
at angles that constyuctively dropped ter
rible explosive shells upon the decks of
the ships. Col. Davis, the district artil-
lery commander. viewed the engagement
from Mount Prospect and sent telephone
reports to Gen. Macarthur telling of the
battle.
In an engagement with the feqt -
inch breech-loading rife in the fort went
off prematurely. killing one private and
seriously injuring two others. The man
who was killed was literally Flown to
pieces, and one OF his arms stuck anoth-
er private in the chest with such force
as to infiict severe injuries.

coNv1crs SHOT LIKE DOGS.
The Legislative Committee Reports
FrightfnI Condition of Affairs.

Corivicts treated like beasts of the field
and shot down ike dogs by guards and
contractors upon the slightest pretext
IL the change made against the manage
ment Of the Texas State penitentiary by
a investigating committee appointed by
the last Legislature. The statement con-
tinues: 1T is our conviction that the
lease system is a disgrace TO the State
and ought to be abolished. As rule the
life Of convict is not as valuable in the
eyes of tie sereeants. guards and con-
tractors, with few exceptions, as that of
@ dog. In evidence thereof we find that
the average life of a convict is seven
years. Conyicts are shot down upon the
least proyocation and when there is abso-
Ltely no excuse for it. Conyicts are
worked whea they are sick and disabled
and some have been compelled to work
until they have dropped dead in their
tracks. When men are shot down like
cogs and are worked until they drop dead
under this system. the people of Texas
cannot hope to escape the responsibility
for these wrongs. The existing methods
are harsh cruel, inhuman and unworthy
Of an enlightened people. The law IN
regard to whipping convicts ought 10 be
repealed. The sergeant whips at any
and all times that it is his pleasure TO do
So The contract system ought to be
abolished at once and a more humane
system inuugurated"
