fittings before beginning n nine months
cruise of nineteen thot a d miles, with
more han two hundred and twenty cadet
pupils on board, the Pennsylvania
anchored yesterday in the North River,
off West Thirty fifth street, coming Iii
rect from Cramps shipyard', in Phila-
delphia.
For many years anAmerican transatlan-
tic liner, then a troop ship running from
San Francisco to the Philippines, the
Pennsylvania is now Il floating prepara-
tory school where boys may study and
prepare for American colleges and at the
same time enjoy the delights of sea cruis-
NJ and sightseeing while in foreign ports.
This is the same school which gave the
order for the Young America which was
started at the Ramsay plant in this city.
When the local yard closed down, leaving
the boat only just started, another vessel
was secured.
In command of Lieutenant Commander
G.. ii. Harlow, U. S. N, president of the
company which controls the enterprise,
the Penn sylvania has 100 officers and
crew, including instructors. The pupils
have nothing Ito do with the handling of
the ship, yet, to encourage a nautical
spirit, all are uniformed according to the
plan in general use on public school
ships, and the discipline maintained is
similar.
Co imposed of twenty-six members the
faculty on the Pennsylvania S is headed
by John Fuller Kent, Harvard A. b.,

PEACE IN VIRGINIA.

Nth rs as
| GAINESVILLE, Va, Sept. 10.--Gen-
ira Corbln has ended the wal game
mancuvers by a general order. When
the orGer came General Bell, with his
broken army, had advanced across
Stone bridge. pushing General Grant
| back. and also had swung Il large part
of his force from the left wing to the
entire right flank OF General Grant
and put them across Bull run at Sud
icy Springs.
TIE second maneuver problem has
handing the brown army, demolishing
General Grants command, the blue
army, east of Bull Run. This result
awards victory to the attacking force
in each of the two problems and makes
General Grant the first victor and Gen
eral Bell the second so far as results
can be estimated without bullets.
The m%aneuverlng on both sides was
pronounced of the highest order. Gen
eral Grants plans were not fully de-
veloped on account of the desire on the
part of General Corbin not to put too
long a strain on the militia. The spec
tncular feature of the work was the
battle of Stone bridge. General Grant
had a strong line of defense on the
east side of this stream, consisting of
Prices brigade. Including two bat
talions of the Alabama and another in
the rear and a detachment of engi-
necrs. ~
The brown force which had APP
preached the bridge consisted of Barry
and I,egan's brigadcs. The attack was
made by the Second Massachusetts
and Twelfth New York. They vert
driven back twice with great loss aft
or advancing under heavy fire. Jusi
as they came up for the third time
the Ninth regulars succeeded in ford
ing the stream below the bridge anG
came up in the rear of THO blue force.
This movement was executed SC
clcvcrly that the blrc force WAS no;
aware of their danger until the infan-
try was within twenty yards of them.
The umplrcs ruled out MI of the blue
force at this place as either killed or
captured. Previous to this the browns
had brought up two machine guns
within range Of the rife fire of the
blues and unlimbered for action. AS
this movement was not covered by
any fire of any kind the guns We're
ruled out Of acton. The umplres ruled
that the bridge was blown up by the
blue army. and the brown troops which
were brought up in force ut this place
all had to ford the stream.
In the meantime the brown force
which had crossed Bull run at Sullcy
had made its way down on the blue
side. a blue line was formed back
of the bridge and was being pushed
hard by the brown force, which also
had formed in skirmish line for al
vance. Just rs these two lines We're
becoming actively engaged the brown
force from Sudley pourel an cntiladine
fire into the blue line from its right
and had not Colonel Wagner. chief
umpire. sounded cease fire" the blue
line probably would have been com
