CORPS HEADQUARTERS. GAINS-
Vil.l.lid. Va.. Sept, 8,—The first man-
oeuver problem closed at noon yester-
day with General Grant's force push-
ing through the left wing of General
Bell. This put the blue force within
two miles of Thoroughfare Gap. the ob-
ject point. However. General Bell has
Smith's brigade on the right and Bar-
ry's brigade on the left of this breach
in his line and Col. Wagner, chief um
pire, draWs no conclusion as to what
might happen had not hostilities ceased
under the command issued by General
Corbin to cease hostilities at noon so
that the tired trdpps might be given re-
lief.
This attack on the part of the blue
force was made by General Wint with
Price‘s brigade consisting of the 7th
Virginia. the First Maine, First Ala-
bama and 16th Infantry. Previous to
this there had been severe fighting on
the line to which General Bell had fal-
len back during the night. This line
the Antioch road. was within two miles
of the western iimltd of the maneover
mod and extended the five miles of the
width of the zone.
While General Bell was falling back
to the new line front the Carolina road
which had been the scene of conflict.
the day before. General Grant occupied
Ire hours between midnight and day-
light in concentrating his forces for an
attack on the brown left. He with—
drew all of his cavalry from the south-
ern portion of his line. their positions
on the first day, and threw two full
brigades and sixteen guns to the point
indicated.
His artillery was so well placed first
it had unobstructed play for an hour on
the Brown line The effect of this fire
was not taken into account by a doc-
sion rendered by the umpire on the
field early in the battle when the blue
force was required to fall back, but
was taken into account later and credit
given accordingly. Every spectacular
feature of a battle in full progress was
progressed in the manoeuvers and the
field was viewed from near and far by
many spectators General Corbin went
amoung the troops of both armies and
made close observation of the progress
of the battle. Mrs. Corbin and Mrs.
Grant and Miss Patton viewed the man-
couvers from an automobile During,
the afternoon the troops returned to
their respective camps to rest until 6
o 'clock this morning. when the problem
will be reversed. and the brown army
will take the field against the blue in
the effort to strike at Washington.
The militia troops displayed the Ils-
ual disadvantage of experience in the
field. Many of them ate their two days'
rations the first day and went hungry
today. The regulars set them a good
example in this respect, dividing that
supplies equally between the two days.
Complaint of depredatlons by mili-
tiamen came to headquarters yester-
day from Wellington,,where it was
claimed‘ that the first Smrttharollna
regiment hal cleaned out a provision
store absoutely. The loss will be re-
imbursed to the proprietor and the am-
ount deducted from the pay of this re-
giment. General Corbin and both divi-
sion commanders unite in praising the
conduct of the militia. They have
been tired out but their fighting quail-
tieu have not been impaired.
