ed from the interior of Germany.
London.-It is officially announced
here that the German cruiser Emden
has been driven ashore and burned.
The losses among the officers and
Of the Emden are announced as
having been very heavy.
The Emden was encountered and
destroyed in the Bay of Bengal by
the Australian cruiser Sydney. She
was driven ashore on an island OF
the Coco group.
The Sydney sighted the Emden and
with superior speed she at once over
took the enemy and gave battle. The
German boat could not escape. There
was a running fight, at the end OF
which the Emden, burning from the
shells of the Australian beat, was
beached.
The casualties on the Sydney are
said to have been three killed and
fifteen wounded.
The German cruiser Koenigsberg,
which disabled the British cruiser
Pegasus some weeks ago, has been
located and bottled up at Malta Island,
on the coast Of German East Africa,
by the blocking of the channel to the
harbor.
The Emden has contributed to the
history of the war, as thus far rec
orded, one of its most remarkable
chapters. For sheer audacity and
success of accomplishment it has few
parallels-certainly non since the
Alabama, the famous old Confederate
warship, was roaming the Atlantic.
Since early in August the ELoden
has been at work. In all, she cap
tured and sank thirty English mer-
chantmen, and the value of the yes
sells and cargoes she sent to the bot
tom has been estimated at over ST.
900, 1000.

shots, causing an explosion on the
gunboat. The Turkish shells set fire
to a petroleum tank at Abo-than. The
