At the conclusion of Permanent Chairman

deep gratitude news of the escape of our
nation's president, Theodore Rooeevelt.
from severe Injury in the accident of this
day.
The report of the committee oa platform
was then received snd waa adopted with
but one or two dissenting votes. The
platform Is devoted almost 'wholly to state
laaues. It Is declared that "the republican
party of history has been driven from the

ganization entrenched In political power,
which has debauched 'snd will continue to

.Of national Issue the platform dIScusse

forte of the New London district It I
said to, have been the most effective . es
well as the, most spectacular move that
has taken place alnce the maneuvers be
gan. Tho firing began at 4:60 and con
tinued almost incessantly for two hours,
being directed at Fort Wright, Flsher'a
Islsod. Ths attacking squadron waa com
posed : of the- battleships Kesrsarge, Ala
bama, Massschusstts and Indiana.
'( Tha' sun waa well up when the four
ships were seen coming from the direction
of Gardiner's .bay, where they were at
anchor laat night Just ae non aa the
first ship was .within firing distance It
was fired' upon from Fort Mlcble, but no
attention waa paid to this warning, tor
the ships csme right along, heading la the
direction'' of 'Fort Wright. It seemingly
being the purpose to capture that' strongly
tortlfled ; place, " believed to "be ' capable
wltn the aid of Forts ' Mlchls and Terry
of roping with the strongest fleet afloat.
The ships kept pretty well out la pass

tempt to-enter Into aa engagement with
either Mlcble or Terry, very few guns
being f red . from these fort during- the
two. hours of fighting. It was a determined

a etour and, then swung well In toward

'..CpIoneTDf vi. commanding the district,
was at the signal station. The firing was
kept up for about half an hour, when
the ships sailed well out toward the race
again, tho defendera believing the ahips
were to retreat.' In the direction whence
they came, .,, . .
,. Suddenly', the ' ships turned snd sgaln
made a. 'vigorous attack ea Fort Wright,
this tlrpe attempting to make a landing.
One pf.tfce. big ships drew in pretty ctose
tot the.'forts. pad with rapld-flre covered
the , landing party,' but In . opposition to
this movement the Catling guns at the
fort were brought into requisition' and the

rather that particular phase of this at
