NAVAL MANOEUVRES.
[By Electric Telegraph—Copyright) [United Pkesh Association.l London, July 25.
At the naval manoeuvres the Red invading fleet outwitted the Blue fleet on the coast and crumpled up the defence. They landed 1500 troops and captured important points. Theoretically, as a result of the raid, Grimsby and Immingham are in ruins. The raiders re-embarked, and their forces disappeared seaward. (Received 8.40 a.m.) London, July 25.
The Blue force claim that they defeated the raid, destroying two Red transports; and also that they trapped the raiders ashore; moreover the Humber forts were silenced.
