DIDN'T SALUTE OUR FORTS.
So No American Omcers at Baltin, ore Have
Visited the French Cruiser.

BALTIMORE, July 1O.-As result of
strained official relations between Col.
Frank Thorpe. commandment at Fort Howard
and Capt Gervais of tina French cruiser
Juren de Ia Graviere. which came into port
last week on friendly visit. no officer
OF the artillery district Of Baltimore has yet
stepped aboard the French vessel or dofYed
his hat to it's commander.
This failure to exchange courtesies ia
the outgrowth OF a technical mlsunder-
standing. When the big French ship arrived
last week Forts Howard Smallwood, Armi-
stead and Carroll were passed without
the slightest recognition in the form Of an
official salute from the warship.
Upon dropping anchor almost of Fort
McHenry, a practically obsolete fortifca-
ton so far as military Importance is con-
cerned, the big guns Of the Jurien de la
Graviere doomed out salute which was
responded to at Fort Howard, the head
quarters Of Col. Thorpe commandant OF
the artillery district.
Lieut. Col. Crawford's headquarters are
at Fort McHenry and day or two follow
ing the Frenchman's arrival In port, Capt.
Gervais and his aide, Lieut.. Jules Cayrol,
who acts as interpreter for his chief, made
an official call upon Lieut. Col. Crawford
and were most Hospitality received. The
officers Of the local post prepared to return
the visit attired in full uniform, the Lieu
tenant-Colonel heading the procession.
Just as they were about to leave the post
the order was promulgated that no officer
could visit the worship, as the Captain OF
that vessel had failed to comply with the
strict rules OF naval etiquette by ignoring
Col. Thorpe.
The French officer is either unaware OF
the misunderstanding or unconcerned.
