FORT TRUMBULL. NEW LOXDON,
Conn.. Sept. 2. At Just 10:20 last night
the bis guns of Torts'' "Wright, Terry
and Mlchle belched almost simulta
neously, and there, was no longer doubt
that t-B first at tuck in the war game
was in effect. For an hour the cannon
continued, and the result from the
Army standpoint Is .test stated in this
official bulletin, posted at headquarters
at 12:12 A. 31. :
"Movement to pass through the race
began at 10:20 "P. M. Forts Mlchle,
"Wright and Terry engaged 50 minutes.
Apparently the chips entering have been
put out of octfoa by points scored by
the Army guna."
The result, however, will be deter
mined later by the board of arbitra
tion. All was quiet at Army headquarters,
when suddenly the reports of the big
guns -were heard, and General Mao
Arthur listened attentively. The attack
was on. but it came sooner than was
expected by the Major-General com
manding. NEWPORT, R. I., Sept L Admiral
Hlgglnion did not long delay after the
declaration of hostilities today to cut out
the work for the jackles and marines of
his fleet, accomplishing by daylight, but
under cover of a fog, two thlng3 that
General MacArthurs Army had not an
ticipated. These were the seizure of Mar
tha's Vineyard and Block Island and the
capture of the Army's signal station at
each place. Tonight he followed up his
good work by a demonstration in force
against the extreme western end of the
line of defending forts, but it cannot ba
determined until later if he actually at
tempted to force his way into Long
Island Sound, or simply to give his crews
some big-gun practice and his Captains
the opportunity to maneuver within
striking distance to determine the loca
tion and caliber of the ordnance in the
forts.
The Navy's night attack was not ex
pected at the western end of the lino
quite so early In the game. The theory
was held all day, after It was known
that Admiral Higglnson had eecured a
base on the ontlying islands, that he would
send his cruisers- for a reconnolssance
against both ends of the line, and then
swing his fleet into the center or around
Newport for a sharp, heavy attack there,
maneuvering quickly, and then, when
things became most interesting, sail to
the westward and make his grand effort
to force his way into Long Island Sound.
This would have been his night attack,
for It seems almost certain that the day
attsck will be against Fort Rodman, the
eastern point.
Once tonight Newport got a scare when
a message came from Point Judith that
marines were being landed thero in the
fog. All communication with that point
was cut oft. Then at 10:30 came an offi
cial bulletin announcing the bombard
ment of Fort Mlchle and Fort Wright,
but when the Point Judith signal station
was again in touch with the central in
telligence bureau, it was explained that
the signal men there were given -a drill in
saving equipment in supposition that the
enemy was making a landing. They cut
out the telegraph and . telephone wires,
picked up their equipment and made a
record-breaking retreat, and then, return
ing, re-established the station, being a
creditable piece of work. Outside of this
incident the routine work of war duty
along Narragansett Bay was simply a
good measure of hard work all day, and
some very lively searchlight work to
night. REPORTS TO HEADQUARTERS.
Valuable Information Received by
"Wireless Telesrrapb.
FORT TRUMBULL.- New London.
Conn., Sept L-All day the army officers
here were kept posted in regard to the
movements of the enemy, even after the
signal etations at Wood's H611 and Block
island had been captured. The detach
ment of signal men at Block Island was
m charge of a signal officer of the Con
necticut National Guard, who escaped
with all of his men except two. He after
wards established a concealed station and
sent information of value to the defend.
ing forces. Information was also re
ceived from Wood's Holl by a line other
than that which was supposed to bo de-'
stroyed hy the enemy, thus showing the
efficiency of General Grcely's corps of
signal men and the completeness of their
work in preparation for the game of war
now on. General MacArthur informed an
Associated Press representative this ev
ening of his extreme satisfaction with
the working of the wireless telegraph.
.Meet of the messages received wero by
that system, and were of decided Interest
to the General In command, this being
the first time the system had been used
in the maneuvers.
Among the first dispatches received was
one reporting the bombardment and cap
ture of Block Island. This was some
what in the nature of a surprise, as the
Island is not within the territory to be
defended, and, therefore, was not sun
posed to be bombarded by the enemy. It
Is expected the ships, according to a de
scription of the rules governing the game,
should have gone to sea between the
period qf preparation to make ready for
the attack. Instead of lying at anchor
Just to the east of the fighting territory
until almost the hour for the beginning
of the hostilities. Still, at headauarters,
it was felt that the enemy, powerfui
though it be, would be put to Its severest
test In attempting to reach the entrance
to Long Island Sound by passing Forts
Wright Terry, Michael and Mansfield,
in the new district The opinion was held
generally that the greatest test would ba
off New London, as the strongest batter
ies are located here, thus giving a fair
test of the coast defense of the district
Among the important dispatches re
ceived prior to 10 o'clock tonight wero the
following:
"4:30 P. M. Escaped signal party on
Block Island, from concealed visual sta
tion, reported: 'Enemy encamped north
east side near New Harbor, about 33
round tents. Colliery in harbor coaling
converted yacht Just outside are the
Indiana, Puritan, Montgomery, Peoria,
Panther and four other cruisers or bat
tleships and dispatch boats." "
"4:27 P. M. Olympla Just came through
Vineyard Sound from the direction of
Wood's Holl..'
WOODSHOLIi SEIZED.
Olympla Lands a Force That Cuts All
Communication.
WOODSHOLL, Mass.. Sept 1. The
United States cruiser Olympla dashed Into
this port this forenoon, landed a force
and seized all the ' telegraph, telephone
and cable stations, thereby cutting off all
t.
communication with Marsha's Vineyard
and Elizabeth Island. Of course the seiz
ure and destruction of telegraphic and
cable facilities were figurative, and' it re
quired the decision of an umpire to make
i plain whether or not the point attempted
by Admiral Higglnson had been won. As
the landing was made, the telegraph and
telephone offices were entered by suffi
cient force to have destroyed the property
or at least the instruments. At the same
time, a boat's crew had located the cable
with grappling hooks and bad held them
a sufficient period to have allowed for
the cutting, and there seemed to have been
no question that the mo'e iiad been entire
ly successful.
The Olympla appeared off this port sud
denly this morning, and Immediately two
boats put off toward shore. One was a
launch, and the other a whaleboat, and in
them was a detachment under Lieu tenant
L. M Everhardt The launch landed here,
while the whaleboat remained off shore
and began grappling for the cable. The
men under Lieutenant Everhardt rushed
to the office of the Martha's Vineyard
Telegraph Company and then to the tele
phone station, and carried out their orders
to main the seizure. Having accomplished
this work, they TCturned to their launch,
joined the whaleboat and returned to their
ship.
This move cut off the only communica
tion with the islands of Nantucket and
Martha's Vineyard, which are very im
portant obsei ration stations.
BLOCK ISLAND CAPTURED.
Important Signal Station in the
Ifanda of the Fleet.
BLOCK ISLAND. R. I., Sept 1. The
Beacon Hill signal and wireless telegraph
station, established , by the Army in con
nection with the extensive war maneu
vers, was captuVed by the fleet represent
ing the enemy under command of Rear
Admiral Higglnson Just after 6 o'clock
this morning. The station was aban
doned after a bombardment of two and a
quarter hours by the battleships and the
guard escaped before a superior force of
marines, which had landed under cover of
the fire from the vessels at Great Salt
Pond Harbor. Eight hundred marines are
now holding the station and guarding the
approaches, while the fleet Is anchored off
shore.
It was scarcely midnight when the patrol
of the Block Island Life-Saving Station
discovered the fleet off the eastern Bide
of the island. ' The signal station was at
once warned and the men considered en
attack imminent They had four hours'
leeway. At 4:15 the battleships ran in
and opened Are on tha island. The rango
raked the Great Salt Pond and the Beacon
Hill station. The reverberations shook
tho island to its base. The firing was
continued until 6:30, when a collier and
dispatch-boat entered the harbor and land
ed a force of men. Before the attack of
this detachment, having been reduced by
the previous bombardment, tho men at
the station made their escape.
The landing force of S00 was divide
and squads were stationed on ench side of
the breakwater arid at other points along
the shore, while an ample force was sent
to occupy the Beacon Hill signal station.
As the fleet lay off shore. 17 vessels could
be counted, including colliers.

NEWPORT, R. I., Sept 2. Just before
midnight last night, four vessels tried to
storm Price's Neck signal station, and
their gunfire against that point was fol

well-placed were some of the latter that
it is believed at the fort that two of the
vessels were putout of action.

DEED OF A MANIAC. s
After Trying- to Brain. Hla Family, a
Utah Man Kills Himself.
PARK CITY, UtahTsept 1.-A horrible
tragedy was enacted three miles bejow
here, on the Snyd.erville road this morn
ing, when William Trottman, after try
ing to beat the brains out of his wife
and children, shot himself through tho
heart with a Winchester rifle.
Trottman entered the room where his
two daughters, aged 14 and 16. years, were
asleep and after klsjilng them affection
ately, raised a monkey-wrench which ha
carried and struck the oldest daughter
on the head, crushing the skull. The
other daughter was awakened and the in
human father repeatedly struck her over
the head with tho heavy instrument The
mother, who was awakened by the noise,
then entered the room and was next at
tacked and cruelly beaten about the head
and body. While her injuries are seri
ous, they are not necessarily fatal.
Trottman then secured a Winchester
rifle and, rushing from the hquse, placed
the muzzle of the weapon to his breast
and pulled the trigger, tho ball going en
tirely through his body. Trottman, early
last April, was sent to the insane aeylum
at Provo, because he feared he would
kill his family. He returned Saturday
and tha tragedy followed.

DAY IX DETAIL.
Speech, by Ex-Governor Rf elenrds ana
Address by President.
BUTTE, Mont, Sept. 1. Two thousand
delegates from all parts of the world are
in attendance at the seventh annual ses
sion of the International Mining Congress,
which convened in this city this morning.
Tomorrow's trains are expected to swell
the representation to at least 5000 dele
gates. Secretary Mohon, or the congress,
has received telegraphic inquiries from
many on their way to Butte, and it Is
estimated that this session will be a record-breaker
In point of attendance of any
of the mining congresses.
President E. L. Shafner's gavel fell at
10 o'clock A. M. in the big auditorium of
Button's Broadway theater In calling the
mining congress to order, and the house
wa? comfortably filled with delegates. An
early adjournment followed, to give the
delegates an opportunity to . witness the
various labor unions in -parade and to
visit the points of interest about the city.
At 2 o'clock the congress was recon
vened with a larger attendance, and the'
exercises wore opened with a prayer by
tho Rev. J. J. Callahan, following which
President Shafner introduced Governor J.
K. Toole, who formally welcomed the
delegates on behalf of tho State of Mon
tana. Mayor W. H. Davey was next In
troduced, and Jn a happy manner extended
Butto's greeting and the freedom of the
city to the delegates of the congress.
At the conclusion of the Mayor's address
ex-Governor J. E. Rlckards. on behalf of
the Business Men's Association, addressed
the, congress. Mr. Rlckards address was
ono of the features of the day's session,
the speaker in a clear and concise man
ner, with varied illustrations, giving fig
ures of Butte's extraordinary mineral out
put In an area of about 1200 acres Butte
has produced over JCOO.000,000 In minora!
wealth, ho said. This small area Is pro
ducing In round figures 10,000 tons of ore
dally, which. If hauled in one train made
up of average cars, would roake a train
Vt miles long. The annual output if load
ed on the cars, would make a train 00
miles In length. He said:
"This 1200 acres has produced up to and
including 1901 1,250,000 long tons of copper,
or, in round figures, 3,000.000,000 pounds.
If this vast product could be manufac
tured Into a wire such as is most gener
ally used by trolley cars, we would have
a wire over L0OD.000 miles In length, or
long enough to girdle this old earth 42
times. There is consumed daily In the
smelters of Butte and Anaconda 3000 tons
of coal. There is used annually in the
mines of this district over 100,000.000 feet of
sawed timber?. It is conservatively esti
mated that 1,500,000,000 feet of sawed lum
ber are In, the underground workings of
our mines In -Butte district Mark you,
thls' does not take Into our calculation
the round timbers used in lagging. We
fall to grasp how much this vast forest
contains In the mere statement of the
number of feet I have had a competent
architect estlmato for me that tho lumber
"would be sufficient to build 75,000 houses
of seven rooms each, covering 540 acres,
allowing to each house the average town
lot. Or we could erect with it 5000 flve
story business blocks as large as the
Owsley block, on the corner of Park and
Main streets, and In addition 38,000 frame
dwellings of seven rooms each. If It was
all used for dwellings, or In part as busi
ness blocks, and the remainder as dwell
ings, either would accommodate 1,000,000
Inhabitants.
"The traffic handled by the railroads
centering here Is enormous, the figures
being so large as to be almost unbelievable.-
when you take Into account our
comparatively sraajl population. There is
handled over 500,000,000 pounds a month. It
would take over 11,000 cars to handle that
vast tonnage in one train, allowing 45,000
pounds to the car. Estimating a car to be
40 feet In length, we would need a train 83
miles long to haul one month's tonnage.
The annual average output of gold and
silver, which are by-products of our cop
per ore, is $15,000,000."
President Shafner followed and deliv
ered his annual address to the congress
as follows:
President Shafner In delivering h!a an
nual address to the congress spoke in part
as- follows:
"I bollevo that by the wise deliberations
and enactments of this honorable body;
by the scientific discussions to be held
here and by the practical object lessons
taught by this great display of the min
eral resources and opportunities of your
wonderful state, an influence will be
created which will never ceasa to operate
to tho interest of Montana. We accept
your hospitality so generously offered, and
assure you that the feelings which prompt
it are both appreciated and reciprocated.
"Perhaps in -view of the many new
members before me, I may be allowed a
word to the congress in emphasis of one
or two points expressed in the 'president's
annual calf First, as to the origin and
aim of this body. The International Min
ing Congress was forced into being
through a recognition of certain neces
sities and abuses existing In our mining,
laws anri nrnntlrw Thau i.i.t-
which are apparent to all interested in
mining, are tolerated by our National
Government we. believe, through its Ig
norance of and lack of proper means for
investigating mining interests. The con
viction also prevailed that the great min
ing population of our own and other
countries, laboring under the disadvant
age of remoteness from "the great business
and political centers,, might, through the
united efforts of representatives from the
various sections Interested, advance those
Interests which all miners .hold In com
mon. Its latter aim was to encourage
the growth and thorough development of
each and every state and terrltorv renre-
ented, and to work harmoniously for .such
.National legislation as la calculated to
promote the interest and prosperity of the
people of our entire -country. These alms
early crystallized Into a demand for a
separate department in our National Govt
ernment, which s?iould bo devoted to
scientific -research and experiment and
to the collection, of information valuable
to the mining Industry and whose head
shodd be made a member of the Presi
dent's Cabinet
' This proposition hao held a prominent
placo in the deliberations of the preceding
sessions of the congress, and at Its last
meeting a committee, consisting of Ave
representative men, was appointed to take
the necessary steps toward securing the
creation of such a department This com
mittee has the satisfaction of reporting
some progress, despite many obstacles
encountered and the apathy of some
whose Interests would be directly con
served by the creation of this department
"Thex assertion that such a department
Is not needed and would prove a useless
expense to the country does not need to
be disproved to any one who has watched
the Immense growth, of the mining Indus
try during the past five years. The paral
lel case of the creation of a department
of agriculture has already been cited be
fore this congress. During the past
Winter a bill for the creation of a de
partment of Commerce and Labor was in
troduced into the House, having a bureau
of mines and mining included In Its spec
ifications. Believing this great lndustry
deserved a larger recognition and de
manded more attention than could "be ob
tained through a mere bureau, your com
mittee earnestly protested against such
a bureau and succeeded in having it
eliminated from the pending bffl. And,
through Representative Wood, of Cali
fornia, a counter Bill was Introduced pro
viding for the creation of a department
of mines and mining. So well was this
bill supported that It was at length agreed
that a committee composed of representa
tives from the different departments of
the general Government be appointed to
Investigate, the whole matter and consider
what bureaus could be dropped, from the
different departments and added to the
proposed department of Commerce and
Labor without loss to the industries rep
resented. '
"The committee on transportation ap
pointed at our laat session desires to ex
press Its satisfaction at the hearty and
generous manner in which the officers of
the great transcontinental railways have
responded to Its request for reduced rates
to this congress, and wishes to publicly
acknowledge Its appreciation of their
courtesy. We have many problems to
como before this congress besides the
questions which mu3t be settled touching
the governing policy of thia organization,
the necessary requirements for member
ship and the proper manner In which- dele
gates shall be appointed. These ques
tions -have never been satisfactorily de
termined, and, owing to differences of
opinion, your executive committee did not
feel authorized to decide them, but con
tented itself with following an established
precedent."
Polish Singers Assemble.
CHICAGO, Sept 1. From all over the
United States Poles have gathered In Chi

CHINESE IN PHILIPPINES.
Proposed Amendment to the Exclu
sion La vr.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 1. It is the opin
ion at the War Department that Governor
Taft's remarks at the Board of Trade
banquet In Manila yesterday respecting
the employment of labor on plantations
will form the basis of a suggestion to
Congress at the next session that the act
extending the Chinese exclusion laws to
me jruiuppiiies De amencca. it is con
templated to remove the Ironclad restric
tion which now exists and clothe tho
Philippine Commission with power to reg
ulate the entrance of Chinese labor. ne
commission Itself has already given some
attention lo thfs subject, and It Is believed
that Professor Jenks' investigations into
the labor problem In the. Straits Settle
ments and elsewhere In tho Orient meet
With -approval. The proposed regulations,
It Is said, will look to a widely regulated
system of admission of Chinese as plan
tation laoorcrs under sufficient bonds In
each case, under proper systems of Identi
ficatlons and on condition that they shall
leave the Philippines after a certain period
of time. Such' rrgulatlons as- exist In
Hawaii for the proper care of the coolies
would be Incorporated. Governor Taft's
representations on this subject vesterdav
were in answer to pressing demands from
.ne American Chamber of Commercfi and
employers of labor In the Philippines for
rencr rrom tne present conditions, which
it Is alleged, prevent the. development of
ine country.
German Praises the American Army.
atiiti .Lars, bept l.-7-A correspondent of
tne Jfrankrort Zeltung, writing from Ma
nila, replies to the charges of cruelty on
the part of the American Army appearing
In European newspapers. He says:
"Perhaps no other nation excent the
United States would have the patience to
meet tne stubborn resistance of the Fili
pinos In Samar for two long years with
such humanity as on the whole has been
the caBe. It Is not to be wondered at that
the American leaders finally let their gall
run over at tho treacherous tricks played
upon them, and adopted sharper meas
ures, . .Of course, some excesses occurred,
but it Is highly inadmissible to select
these few cases and serve them to the
public as typical of American war-making."
The correspondent also" emphasizes tho
injustice of expecting Americans to ob
serve in every case the rules of ch'illzed
warfare while fighting such a foe. The
writer praised the political shrewdness,
combined with moderation, of making sur
rendered Insurgent officers Governors of
