LAND AND SEA FORCES AT PORT,
LAND ARE RESTING AFTER AN
ACTIVE PERIOD.
LANDING PARTY BEATEN
Defenders Force Back Fighters Who
Try to Reach Shore During Early
Morning Acknowledgements Be-
tween the Forces Regarding Attack.

Portland, Aug. 27.-At daybreak to.
day, after night of considerable ac-
tivity, both sides in the war game were
resting. Desultory firing continued
from 3:15 until O'Clock, but shortly
after dawn the fleet retired to its rem.
devious off Hartswell and the land
troops are waiting for the next move.
Unsuccessful Expedition.
Two gunboats off Town Landing at
Falmouth, three miles from the har-
Dor, were fired upon from Fort McKin-
ley while sending ashore landing par.
ties early this morning.
Three torpedo boat destroyers are
reported to have passed Forts Will
liams and Levett shortly before mid
night and attempted to countermine
the harbor. They were fired upon by
Fort Preble.
Difference of Opinion Arises.
There has arisen difference of
opinion and claims between the army
and navy officers as to the attack
made early yesterday morning by AL
miral Barker's fleet on the forts COM
manding the entrance to Portland har-
Dor and in view of this there has
been uncertainty as to whether an
other attack would be made during
the night or not. According to the
rules laid down for the conduct of
the war games the fleet is allowed to
make one day and one night attack.
The question is, was the attack made
before or after daybreak.
A Waiting Game.
The army officers say that although
the vessels directly after midnight at
tempted to land men, yet they did no
firing from the ships and after the
landing parties were repulsed, no reg
ular attack was made by the ships
themselves until after daybreak 1t
was understood that the navy officials
claim they made a night attack in adj
dition to the landing parties and that
there was no response to their attack.
With the difference of opinion between
the two branches the time of the next
attack is uncertain. However, the
army officials, relying on their belief
that day attack has been made af-
ter day break are in readiness for a
night attack at any moment. Orders
were issued for the men to turn
out at 1880 in anticipation of such an
attack.

]. p. Mullen, speaking in the inter
est Of clients, favored permanent or
ganization and advised the citizens
that If they submitted to present

He believed that the set Of resolu.

ton should smack in pronounced
measure Of honest and fair dealing
Also that the citizens holdings had
been threatened and menaced by
land pirates who had charge of the
Mississippi Choctaws and that such
an emergency demanded prompt and
perfect organization.
The convention then went into per
