HAMPTON ROADS
IS STILL SAFE
FROM SUCCESSFUL ATTACKS OF
HOSTILE FLEETS.
So Decided After the Umpires Had
Passed Upon the Merits of
War Play.

Fortress Monroe, Va, June 15.-An
attack in force was made by the hos
tile feet under the command of Rear
Admiral Dickens on these Notifications
at IL tonight. Exactly at that hour
the commandant of the fort was noti-
fed OF the approach of torpedo boat
destroyers, and Immediately the NOR
tars opened fire. The battery on Will
loughby Spit at the same time engaged
one of the larger vessels supposed to
be the Hartford, The torpedo boats
passed slowly in front of the fortifica-
tions, making an excellent target. They
fired upon the land defense rapidly,
making most spectacular sight, as the
comparatively little guns cracked and
spit fire into the blackness of the night.
The forts used their five-inch rapid
fire guns, and, one by one, the little
destroyers were declared constructively
sunk and ordered to cease firing. But
the fight had only begun. The black
smoke from the guns of the little de-
stroyers had made an effectual screen
through which the CLEAN of the search
lights did not seem to penetrate for
the larger and more powerful ships On
came the five heavy monitors, the bat
tleship Texas and the smaller boats un-
der command of Admiral Dickens. The
ships threw their searchlights on the
land Notifications and fired by broad
side and by battery until the very walls
of the big hotel on Old Point Comfort
trembled from the vibration. The en-
gagement had become general. Practi-
cally all of the battery of the fort here,
as well as the big guns on Fort Wool,
in the harbor, opened fire on the ships.
The ships, after passing in front of
Fort Monroe, turned westward and
passed between Fort Monroe and Fort
Wool, in the harbor. Both forts and
ships fred as rapidly as possible.
Exactly at midnight the. battle of
Fort Monroe came to an end. The sig
nal for cessation of hostilities was
given by the commandant of the fort.
Constructively every ship of the hos
tile feet suffered the fate of the battle
ships of the feet Of Admiral Rojest-
vensky and was either sunk or dis
abled Hampton Roads is still safe and
liable to remain so as far as any hos
tile fleet is concerned.

MORE SUBPEONAS

Chicago, June 15.-John c. Driscoll

county grand jury late this afternoon
and the states attorney and assistants
are busy working on subpoenas foI

1t is alleged that Driscoll furnished tho

States Attorney Healy said this even,
