 Washington, July 26.-An official report on the entry of a British cruiser into lower Chesapeake Bay early yesterday morning reached the navy department today from the commander of the battleship Louisiana through the Norfolk Navy yard. The despatch says:
 '"The commanding officer of the Louisiana reports that about 2:30 a. m., the 25th, while he was at anchor in Lynnhaven Bay and using his searchlight and signal lights and otherwise indicating that he was a man-of-war, he was passed by a yes sel that was barely discernible for two man-of-war lights displayed aft.
 "As this vessel passed the Louis lana she made the signal which read English cruiser The vessel was then standing apparently up the channel toward Hampton Roads. The lights disappeared very soon after the signal was made and nothing was seen of her, though the Louisinana kept a bright look out for her"

 quet Tonight at Permanent Exhibit Hall

Two hundred registered boy dele gates attended the opening session of the teen-age conference held at the Young Mems Christian association last night West End district had the 1arg- est district attendance. The class demonstration as given by the Gideon class of the Eleventh Avenue Method ist Sunday school was very interesting. Hofford Todd talked on physical ae- tivities" and some very interesting pie lures were shown in connection with this talk. Burr Blackburn was then in troduced and was given a prolonged ovation. He told of the work the boys in Chicago are doing, explaining the difference in conditions and the ad- vantages of Birmingham.
 The feature of the session was the address of John L. Alexander. He touched particularly upon the celebra- ton of Mothers day and urged every boy to write a letter to their mother. Following the address over 100 of the boys singed the letter, which was mailed out last night. Other enjoyable features was the music as furnished by the band from the East Lake Meth odist church. The nominating com mittee was appointed by the president and will meet at 80 this afternoon.
 Everything is in readiness for the girls meeting this morning at the First
