CRUISERS ABOUKIR. H0GUE
AND CRESSY ARE BLOWN UP

London, Sept. 24.-Although the
British admiralty has not given out
an official estimate of the number OF
casualties when three British armored
cruisers. the Aboukir, Hogue ard
Cressy, were sunk in the North sea
by one or more German submarines.
the latest press dispatches estimate
rlen.
The Berlin Report.
A dispatch from Berlin says that re-
ports received by the German admir-
atty show the destruction of the three
warships was accomplished by the
submarine U-9, singlehanded.
No mention Of the fate Of the TO
is made in the Berlin story.
Demands for speedy vengeance on
the Germans for their exploit in sink
ing three British armored cruisers are
voiced by most of the newspapers.
Captain Berkhout, OF the steamer
Titan, who haved ia Of the British
sailors, and landed them at Harwich,
witnessed the fight between the cruis-
ers and the submarines. Captain
Berkhout told the following story.
Fight in Early Morn.
THE fight took place about ! a. m.
Tuesday, at which time | saw d Ger
nan submarine tearing away at great
speed.
Far away on the horizon | saw
three cruisers, the AbOukir. Cressy
and Hogue, and after a while mo
ticed that II Of them had gone. I
did not pay particular attention at tho
time. but when | next turned 10 look
for them | noticed another had dis.
appeared. There was some smoke
and | heard a slight explosion.
AT o1ce | dashed in their direction.
While ! was on my way the remain-
ing cruiser rolled over and sank.
When | arrived l lowered away two
boats to rescue a large number of men
whom | saw swimming about in the
water. Altogether | picked up III
men and three officers. All had
thrown off their clothes in the water.
One of the officers was Commander
w. S. Sells, OF Portsmouth. His wrist
watch had stopped at 5 minutes past
Z and 1t vas at 10 a. m. that | picked
him up. All were exhausted.
Only about twenty minutes elapsed
after the attack was made before the
last of the three went down. The dis
aster cost the British $12, 900, 900.

New York, Sept. 26.-Andrew Car.
negie absolved Emperor William OF
responsibility for the European war
on his arrival here from England ON
board the Mauretania.
Knows Kaiser Well.

Carnegie.
"He is the most sorrowful nan in

yacht when he heard of the trouble.
He got into communication with Ber-
lin. He "a called back and went
with all speed. When he got there
the mischief was done.
Thinks Ministers Responsible.
His ministers are responsible for
the entire affair. The German en-
peror has done more for developing
Germany than any other ruler of his
time. He has made schools, he has
pensioned the working classes, and he
has helped the laboring man. Kaiser
Wilhelm came into power and found
Germany, under Bismarck, an unciyil-
lied community.
Things have taken such a turn that
I believe Sir Edward Grey said exact
ly the right thing when he made the
statement:
1--WE are not fighting the German
people, but German militarism.'
Criticises German MiIitarisn.
German miiitarfsm overrules the
great men of Germany. The great
men of Germany are not members Of
tue court. but are scientists, nhiloso-
piers and the real leaders OF Ger
manys progress.
The rulers OF the world gathered
around the men who feel that they
also have a tenure of Office ard form
these military c%liques, such as was
orme in Germany. and they took
such action as instigatfng this war dur
ing the absence OF the kaiser himself.

Now that the wal is on, | am de-.
lighted to find that Britain has az
great and able man as Sir Edward
Grey. He is a man who will lead them
in the right way. he IS a man who does
not say things without meaning them.

Mr.. Carnegie expressed his pleasure
over getting back to America.
ITO get back to a republic III peace.

"WOrd has been received here that
Germany has stopped all traffic on the

to figuring on the possibility of a Ger

Objection was raised on the ground
that the city is paying for something

has no assurance as yet that It is
going to get It's moneys worth when
Mr.. Taylor has completed his work
