All was .quiet at army headquarters, when. suddenly the reports of the big guns were Heard gad General MseArtbur lis tened -attentively.' The attack waa on, but It came sooner than .was expected by the major general commanding. ' When the booming of the big guns signaled the be ginning of the attack, for the moment all communication with the forts being cut off by telegraph and telephone, General Mac Arthur boarded his yacht Kanawha and proceeded to Fort Wright. Far out In the races the ships ' commanded by Admiral Hlgglnsoa were sighted, and Just at soon as they came . within firing dlstsoc the fort gunr opened on them. - There - was quick response from the enemy. It seems the fleet of the enemy bad been divided, the squadron under Admiral Cogh. lan not being seen during the first attack. Admiral Hlgglnsoft cam from the east to the race and there the fight commenced with all the realism as far as potslbl of actual war. The ships' lights were out, and It was evident the admiral hoped he could get nearer the forts before he waa discov red, but In this ha was foiled, ao the army officers claim, and his ships, Including Massachusetts) and Indiana, were put out of action, the ships hurrying to the west ward out of the firing sons. Just exaotly where the fleet went was not known defini tely at headquarters. Marines Imm'Arjt my Eaeaay. W60D'S HOLE, ' Msss.. Sept. 1. The United States cruiser Olympla dashed Into this port thla forenoon, landed a force and seised all telegraph, telephone and cable atatlona, thereby cutting off all com munication with Martha's Vineyard and Elisabeth Island. Of course, the seizure and destruction of telegrapblo and cable facilities were figurative and It required the decision of an umpire to- make .plain whether or not the point attempted by Admiral Hlggin son. had been .won. As the landing waa made the telegraph and telephone offices , were entered, by. sufficient tore to hive 1 Destroyed the property, or at least the in struments, and at the same time a boat's crew had located the cables with grap pling hooks and had bald them a sufficient period to have allowed the cutting of them, there seemed to have been no ques tion that the move hid been entirely suc cessful. Olympla appeared off thla port suddenly early this morning and immediately two toata'UM 'Off "toward" shore. One was a launch and th other a whaleboat and In them' was. a dHafhtnt.nt '.under .
