LONDON, Dec. 10.-There are be-
lieved to have been nine warships in
the British fleet under Vice Admiral
Sir Frederick Sturdee which defeated
the German fleet under Admiral Graf
Won Spec in the South Atlantic of Falk-
land Islands on Tuesday with the loss
of nearly two thousand lives.
The battleship Canopus, which ar
rived too late to take part in the en-
gagement off Chile on November L,
when two English cruisers were sunk,
is believed to have played a prominent
part in the sinking of the German
armored cruisers Scharnhorst, Gneise-
nau and Leipzig.
Although the admiralty has remain
ed silent on the composition of Vice
Admiral Sir Frederick Sturdee's fleet,
it's is estimated that other ships were
engaged.
News of the capture of the destruc-
ton of the German cruisers Dresden
and Nurnberg, which escaped, thus
clearing the Pacific of German war
ships, is expected hourly.
England Enthused.
Rejoicing over the victory swept
through the British Isles like wildfire,
and today Vice Admiral Sir Frederick
Sturdee was acclaimed as the national
hero of the hour. Warm tributes to
the English navy We're presented by
the press, and many buildings were
decorated with flags in honor of the
signal victory.
According to the admiralty, none of

werp where he had boarded the ship
which had taken him to New York.
He declared the pictures were quite
remarkable.
Depict Modern War.
One man who saw the pictures la st
night had served three enlistments in
the United States army and had seen
active service. Some people may be
disappointed in these films because no
actual hand-to-hand fighting is de-
picted,' he said after the show, "but
let me tell you those pictures accurate
1y depict modern war. which is for the
most part long range fighting. except
where opposing armies have by tunnel
ing, advanced their trenches within
close proximity of each other. In such
advanced position hand-to-hand fight
ing is frequent but no photographer
nor correspondent is ever permitted to
visit these advanced positions.
"One part of the film gives the
audience a true idea of modern fight
ing. 1t shows the retreat of Bel
gian column across a large field. The
average citizen wonders why they are
retreating because no enemy is visible,
but that enemy is. several miles away
and his artillery has made 1t so hot
for the Belgian column that it has
been forced to fall back. That the
column is retreating under fire is
shown by the shell which strikes a
farm house and demOlishes it. 1t took
lot of pluck for the photographer to
stand up and take that view"
1t is hoped that today the paid ad-
missions to the war pictures will ex-
ceed those of yesterday, and there are
about five hundred poor children who
are expressing the same hope. 1t
means warm clothing, some play
things and something good to eat for
them on Christmas day.
eff a person fails to see those pic
lures he must credit himself with a
lost opportunity. is the way President
Bavis of the board of public works
puts it.
