mer weather extended the hands of
hospitality today to a never-ending
stream of arriving veterans who have
come to Kentucky to attend the 18th

federate Veterans which opens tomor-

The city has among it's guests nearly
all the prominent surviving officers of
the Confederacy and Confederate
Army.
General w. E. Mickie, adjutant gen.
era land chief of staff, has completed
his annual report, which is highly in
teresting. 1t says:
1T is a source of sincerest pleasure
to me that / am able to report that
the debt which has beAn resting on
the Federation for a number of years
has been paid in full. That this mat
ter has been liquidated is due to the
extraordinary efforts to put forth by
you; and while the urgent appeal made
by you to the wealthiest members of
our orders Was sent to nearly three
hundred people, and should have had
most generous responses, the amount
relaized was barely sufficient to wipe
out the dept.
II am proud to be able to report
that at no period in the history of the
Federation have the camps paid their
duties with more promptness or In
greater numbers. At the Nashville
meeting only about As 2-3 per cent. OF
the camps paid in full all claims
against them while at the present time
AZ ga per cent. of them are all pres
ent and accounted for.
1.-The field from which new camps
are to be gathered is limited and the
material is rapidly diminishing by the
erosion of time. Yet there are those
who once were units Of our great ar
mics who desire to associate them
selves together and connect themselves
with our social, literary historical and

Defence of Washington.

Fort Hunt, Va, June 13-The first
gun in defense of Washington was
nTed by one of the inch batteries II
Fort Hunt at 9.11 o'clock. The target
was one of the units of Admiral
Dickins' squadron. which appeared to
be of the cruiser type. She had just
rounded MarShall's Point about three
miles below the fort proceeding slow
ly up the river. That she was an
enemy" was indicated by a signal
from one of the forts sixty-inch
searchlights
After the initial fire the shooting be-
came general. and six minutes was
taken up by Fort Washington's 12-
inch batteries. Not reply came from
the warships. and when the required
number of shots from the fort had
been fired constructively to put the
ship out of action. the firing ceased.
The offending craft proceeding
calmly upstream during the cessation
of the fire from the forts and when
she reached the mine fields, which
are a little below the forts, the boats
were lowered and manned. A harvest
of mines was quickly gathered but not
before the rapid fire guns of the forts
and occasionally an eight-inch gun
had scored on the illumined target at
the closer range. The ship returned
the fire and her guns sputtered and
flashed at a lively rate for several
minutes. The fort observers could not
identify the ship by name although
she. was thought to be the converted

"For the year 1903, the cash re-
ceipts from all sources amounted to
$7,035, while for the year 1904 the
amount was $7,S12. When it is borne
in mind that the sources from which
this income is derived is greatly re-
duced each year this gain is the more
marked. The disbursements for the
year were $7,329.

to be definitely determined until the
receipt OF the Japanese reply. The
communication, after reciting the re-
ception of President Roosevelts note.
says:
I'm reply to this communication, the
foreign minister, acting under the En-
peror, deeply sensible of the senti-
ments expressed by the President
was pleased to see therein a fresh
mark of the traditional friendship
uniting Russia and America and pre-
cious proof that President Roosevelt
was in complete accord with the views
the Emperor held on a general settle
ment so essential to the good progress
of the whole of mankind AS for an
eventual meeting of Russian and Jap
anese plenipotentiaries charged with
ascertaining how far it would be pos
sible for the two powers to elaborate
conditions of peace, the imperial gov
ernment would have no objection IN
principle to such an attempt If the
Japanese government expressed de-
sire therefor"
The fact that the Japanese govern
ment has not yet communicated with
Russia as to time and place and the
number of plenipotentiaries is not con-
sidered strange, inasmuch as the text
of the Russian reply, sent TO WashlnS-
ton yesterday could not have arrived
at Toxic, considering the difference in
time. until last midnight, at the earl
lest.
Japan's terms continue to be mat
ter for animated speculation. A well
informed diplomat who says he knew
Japan's terms before the battle or
Mukden, considered them to have
been very moderate and believes that
even now they will be found to be not
unduly harsh.
Private advices received from a
Russian source at Shanghai say it is
certain that Japan will demand the
surrender of all ships interned in
eastern waters, which may be another
item offsetting indemnity.
Papers supposed TO have semi-of-
fetal inspiration continue TO speak
lubiously of the results; but it is no.
ticeable that the cheap and popular
papers like the Gazette plainly advise
the people to reconcile themselves to
defeat and peace.

WEAVER GETS SET BACK.
Action of Committee First Reverse
the Reform Major Has Received.
(By the Associated Press. }

Philadelphia. June 13.-Amid the
cry of thieves" and crooks" and
under the protection of squad of po-
lice the committee on street railways
of City Councils today referred to the
city solicitor for his opinion as to the
legality four bills repeating ordinances
granting street car companies the right
to use one hundred and ten miles OF
street to lay tracks without the city re-
ceiving any compensation for the fran
chises. The meeting was in all re-
spects as sensational and as stormy
as that held by the committee on fl.
nance some weeks ago when the gas
lease was under consideration. Ihe
'repealers" were introduced at the m
stance of Mayor Weaver and the ac-
ton of the committee today is the first
setback the mayor has received since
the inauguration of the reform move
ment which began with the fight on
the gas lease. Another sensation In
the political situation today was the

Fortress Monroe, Va, June 13.-The
attack which Fort Monroe had been
expecting since midnight Saturday,
came this morning when Admiral
Dickins moved on the land forces with
three of his vessels of his fleet: the
battleship Texas, his flagship, the
training ship Hartford and the con-
verted yacht Vixen. No official infor-
nation concerning the thirty minutes
engagement which followed the sight
ing OF the attacking party is obtain
able, but the impression prevails that
the whole sea force was constructiVely
sunk. The firing ceased at o'clock.
The naval commander Immediately
withdrew.
A close watch is being maintained
in anticipation of an attack from the
whole of the fleet. Perhaps the most
notable developments of the engage
ments was the demonstration of the
efficiency of the searchlights which
picked up the fleet at distance of
approximately five miles. The weather
was still thick enough to interfere with
the getting of maximum results from
the operations of the> lights.
Only part of the available guns OF
Fort Monroe was used. The firing first
came from Fort Wood, a detached ar
tillery station in the roadstead. Then
after the Texas had opened up In re-
ply the batteries at Willoughby Point
were brought into action. Only the
flashes from this place indicated that
firing was i'm progress, the distance be-
ing too great to permit the report of
the subcalibre charges TO be heard
here. The only firing from Fort Mon
roe proper came from the batteries
nearest to Buckroe Beach at the up
per end of the military reservation.
Admiral Dickins manoeuvered his
vessels so as to keep several Darges
and boats which were on the bay at
the time between him and the land
batteries and thus the aiming of Col
onel Potts gun was interferred with
10 some extent. The three vessels are
supposed to have encountered mines
during the progress of the fight.
The Texas and one of the converted
yachts attached to Admiral Dickins'
fleet. presumably the Hornet, made
another demonstration at 1895 this
afternoon. As soon as they were
sighted there was constructive firing
from the mortar batteries off Fort
Monroe and Immediately afterwar0
some of the smaller land batteries
were put into action and fired few
shots. The fact that the two vessels
continued on up the roads and then
turned and went back up the bay is
taken to indicate that the constructive
mortar fire was considered to have de-
stroyed or disabled them.
At II o'clock three of Admiral
Dickins' torpedo boat rounded Mar
shalls Point and made a dash for the
mine fields. They were at once under
the fire of the forts
