August ills—The first clash at arms between the red army of invasion that is attempting to cap- ture ibis city and the blue army of defense. the latter composed wholly of Massachusetts militiamen. Occurred this morning near Warebam, near the base of Cape Cod. The engagement was nothing more important than a skirmish between a detachment of the cavalry of Iilt' invading force and the second brigade oi Massachusetts ill- fontrymen which had been pushed for- ward at the extreme left of liit‘ line of defense. Before the first break of day when everyone in the camps of both armies were ready for s day of activity. I_ short shutter laid the dust in the roads and made marching easier for the troops. Brigadier General Wil- liIrn A. Few. commander of the blue army at Bridgewnter. sent his second brigade across the Colchestcr brook. along the east side of the great Cedar swamp. through Halifax to East Mid- disboro, with the extreme left resting at Warehsm. The front of the second brigade left had hardly reached Ware- bsm when a detachment of the red army cavalry appeared and a sharp encounter began. The object of the attack was undoubtedly to draw the blue troops sway from the vicinity of Middleboro and thus give General BIA” All Opportunity to push the main strons’lh of his red army up though Lakevlllo and Middlcboro and on to Boston. The second brigade of the blue army resisted the attack of the cavalry. however, and it was evident that Gen. Pew was not going to throw his strength on his extreme left and allow a breach at Lakcvllle. instead. he still kept his headquarters at Robbins Pond. Bridgewater. and moved his first brigade. in collinear! of Col. Pieroo. through Bridgewater center and start. ed them down the west side of Great Cedar swamp. the brinde from. rest- Ing at Titicut. a village in ilrldgcww ter. The brigade had outposts sto- tioncd well down to the Taunton branch of the Old Colony Railroad. With his front extending fr0m the Taunton branch of the railroad on the extreme right to Wareham on the extreme left. General Pew kept in reserve his first and second corps of cadets, his entire deld artillery and his machine guns to protect his divi- oion headquarters at Robbins Pond. The First and Second Connecticut and the Twenty-second and Seventh New York infantry. encamped hour not Freetown, started early on the march today. They were obliged to keep to the roads and the showers that fell during the early morning hours helped them materially for It laid the dust and made marching more comfortable. These regiments are the main body of Brigadier General 'i‘ssker ii. Bliss‘ red army of invasion and It was evident that their com- mander wished to strike the blue army at Middleboro. He had sent II. small detachment of cavalry to the blue or- my extreme left at Wareham. hoping. it was supposed. to draw away from the vicinity of Mlddleboro and Im- vllle the main body of General Pew's forces. Finding that General Pew did not swallow the bait, General Bliss moved the strength of his infantry to wards the blue army right wing. His artillery force was sent on in ad- vance. It was the supposition that General Bliss hoped to either. smash the blue army's extreme right and come up to Boston through Tacoma and Brock- ton. or to draw away the blue army base from the vichity of IliddleborO. send his whole strength at this brooch and pass along up to Boston through 'Bridgewater and Brockton. The United States army transport Sumner arrived from Newport News today. The Sumner had on board 300 coast artillery men. who will reinforce the soldiers at the Boston forts in re- pluslng the advance of the “red" army of invasion. JAP CRUISER COMING.

TALK 0’ ITADIUM FOR YALE. 5-..— Donisi Mods That Alto Hos loos lo- cal-ed. lut Money is Doing Raised. NEW HAVEN. Aug. lib—A denial is given to the report that the Ithietlo authorities at Yale have secured a site for a' stadium for use in football games and that plans for a structure are being made. There‘have been no gotiationo in various directions for I site for the stadium and the most likely place seems to be a tract of land near the present athletic field in Orange. The athletic authorities hes itete about placing the stadium out‘ side the city limits, owing to friction which has arisen in the post over the policing of the field and the control of the highways leading to the scene of the Deniest. The officers of the town of Orange have several times been at swords' points with New Haven omc- are detailed to aid in the task of hand- ling.many thousands of people and it oftentimes has required diplomacy to smooth over the affairs. One plan under consideration has been to ask the general assembly to annex the part of Orange adjacent to Yale held to the city of New Haven. St. Lawrence cemetery, which is Just west of the football neld. and the high- way leading to it from the city line. have been annexed to New Haven, but the .fleld and the approaches to the gates outside tbc highway bounds are in Orange. ii the legislature should annex the land between the cemetery and the city lino, it is quite certain that the stadium will be lo noted there. The policing of the grounds and the approaches thereto. with the additional fire protection which is required. would fall upon the trained nlen of the city's force, in- stead of upon inexperienced men sworn in by the town of Orange for the occasion. The athletic authorities moreover will be able to arrange for development of transportation facil- ities to the field without the continual dickering with the town authorities when changes are to be made. in the vicinity of Yale field there has been no good site offered for the stadium. Last spring tentative plans for a struc- ture to seat 50,000 people were drawn ind perspective views made of the drawings. but it is understood that these were not presented to the nth» letlc authorities officially. hence the denial of the preparation of plans. if is understood that a New York alum nus has offered a contribute a very large sum of money to llci along the undertaking. Probably t e stadium will be built under I bond arrange- ment. its completion will be in time for the Yaleilarvard game in the fall of next ycar.
