pATrLesHlP DESTROYED"
Spectacular Battle Won by Army
Near Portland, Me.


Portland, Ne. Aug. 2S.-Precisely
at 42C last evening the battle flags on
II vessels oil Rear Admiral Barker's
superb fleet were flung 10 the south
west breeze, blowing fresh and strong
up Portland harbor and the long an
licipated day attack was In progress.
According to the decision OF the UNI
pires all the battieships were de
stroyed' by the shore batteries as soon
ns they came within the prescribed
5000 yards range and before they had
fred a single shot but this ala not
detract On the least from the sDectac-
ular interest IN the battle, and for an
hour the cannonadlng was terrific
The vessels of the feet began 10
leave the anchorage in Middle bay
early in the afternoon, and By the
time they we're stripped for action had
formed in single file in a long line,
with Rear Admiral Barker's flagship
Kearsarge leading and the others fol-
lowing at a distance Of about 300 yards
apart and in this order:
Battloships Illinois, Alabama, Texas;
cruisers Chicago, Olympia, Baltimore
and Panther; tralningship Essex;
cruisers Yankee. Topeka. Prairie; gun
boat Scorpion: destroyers Worden'
Stewart, Truxton and Whipple The
gunboat Vixen followed along about
half way between the Essex and yam
kee. but several hundred yards FUR
ther in shore rather than IN the d.
rect line.
As soon as they reached the 5000
yard limit the mOrtars in Fort Nc
Kinley opened fire. For some mo
ments the feet was silent. but at last
the Kearsarge, Illinois and Alabama
swung their broad white sides shore
ward and opened with a terrific fusi-
lade on Mckinley. The example set
by the battleships was soon followed
by every vessel IN the neel, and as
they steamed further down the har-
Dor all the forts opened fire until the
whole coast seemed dotted with big
white pufs Of smoke rent by rapid
flashes OF flame
The cannonading carried on by both
sides was incessant until the feet,
which had taken a very devious course,
had given Williams, the last fort, a
chance at near range.
It was a spectacle pure and simple,
a long, striking procession. and no at
tempt was made TO force any passages,
land any parties or employ strategy.
Finally. just as the sun was setting,
the naval forces desisted from attack
and put out to sea.
