ENGLISH SINK FOUR
GERMAN VESSELS
FIGHT TAKES PLACE OFF THE
COAST OF HOLLAND WHILE
ENGAGED IN SCOUTING.
BrItons Take Terrible Revenge for the
Sinking Of the Hawke, Four Ger
man Destroyers Being Sent to
the Bottom During Battle.

London.-The British navy on Sat
urday avenged the Hawke, the Brit
ish cruiser sunk off the coast of Scot
land by German submarine, by send.
ing to the bottom four German tor
pedo boat destroyers off the coast Of
Holland
The terrible execution--the most
brilliant naval feat thus far recorded
in the war-was accomplished by the
British light cruiser Undaunted, fight
ing with the indomitable courage of a
great lion of the sea driven to bay.
The cruiser was attacked by feet
of the enemy's destroyers while on
patrolling duty, according to the Off
cial announcement of the press bu-
reau of the admiralty, which con.
firmed the news of the victory.
She had been searching the seas for
the squadron of the enemy's ships
which had been operating from the
estuary of the river Ems, one of
which war vessels recently had been
sunk by British submarine.
The Undaunted was accompanied
by the torpedo boat destroyers Lance,
Lennox, Legion and Loyal, which
were acting as her convoy.
The attacking feet singled out the
Undaunted and concentrated their fire
upon her, thinking first to dispose OF
the more formidable vessel and te
turn their attention to the lighter
craft.
In the battle which followed, foul
of the attacking destroyers were
quickly sent to the bottom by well di
rected shots from the six-inch ant
] fonr-inch guns of the undaunted.
