BOMBARDMENT FORCED
BY GERMAN DEFENSE
Had to Fight with Backs to Wall.
Hoped to Mine British Ships
in Chase.

Naval officers were keenly interested
yesterday in reports OF the German raid
on the English coast, and are eagerly
awaiting further ofiiclal announcements
30 that they may have a sound basis
for conclusions regarding the operation.
The German stroke Is regarded here
as merely another daring venture by
the Germans. resulting from being forced
to play a defensive game, undertaken
partly for the moral effect which might
be achieved by a successful dash ana
feturn. and partly In the hope that some
British warshlps might be lured TO en-
gage in pursuit Of thes esoaiders and run
the risk OF encountering German mines
1t Is also the opinion here that the ex-
ploit was attempted partly for the pur-
pose of offsetting in the worlds view
the annihilation Of the German SQUAD
ron In the South Atlantic by the British.
It was the German intention, II Is be-
lieved, to dart away from the British
coast just as soon as the British naval
forces started after them. Officers here
believe that after the return run was
started the German raiders began scat
tering mines over their sterns, trusting
to chance that the British ships which
might engage in the pursuit would strike
them and. be destroyed. Last night II
was rumored that exactly this result
hoped for by the Germans had occurred.
II was pointed out that the towns Sc
lected for the bombardment, with the ex-
ception OF West HartlepOol, are, so far
as Is known here, unfortified places. Con-
sequently, the Germans could select
light-armored vessels for the lombard
ment without their being exposed to any
danger Of destruction from the enemy
on shore. Had Scarborough been de-
Tended with modern coast defense guns,
1t Is declared. the bombardment never
would have been attempted.
This operation Of the Germans again
brings up The Hague rule regarding the
bombardmentso of undefended towns. Ger
many, France, Great Britain, Russia,
Austria Hungary, japan, Servia, and
Turkey all signed this convention.

Penal Property Values

The total value of the III New Jer-
sey penal institutions, under the sup
ervision of Joseph p. Byers, STATE
Commissioner of Charities and Correc-
tions, is Sill, I42, 1877, according 10 an
appraisal given out by him on Friday.
OF this amount, the value of lands and
buildings is placed at $9,672,2I2. This
appraisal does not include the State
Home for Feeble Minded, at Vlneland,
upon which no valuation has yet been
placed. 1t is, however, approximately
correct to state that New Jeasey has
$l2, O00, 900 worth of property i'll its
institutions for the cart and custody of
criminals, detectives and indigents.
The most valuable property is the
State Hospital for the Insane at Norris
Plains, Commissioner Byers having
placed an appraisal of $685. 1856 upon
buildings and land, and $364,O33 upon
personal property and equipment there.
Next in value is the State prison at
Trenton, the buildings and lands of
which are valued at ST, 5I3, 525, and the
personal property at $751; 200. The
State Hospital for the insane at Tren-
ton Is appraised at $I,456, 997 on per-
sonal property. The Railway Reform
atory is listed at ST, 1856, 900 Oh build
ings and lands, TIT $40,I Oh personal
property. The valuations of the other
institutions range from $40, 400 to up
ward to 81, 000 ,OO0.
