night BY taking gas. She left a note
saying that she was sorry that she had

The girl had been deserted By her

or and badly damaged another, while
the destroyers put in good work on
smaller German craft. After this the
Russian vessels went home untouched.
"Thc Germans naturally kept a dead
silence about the whole affair, which
was not only rather discreditable from
purely naval point of view, but in
volved other considerations still more
discreditable. The Russians kept quiet
about IL for other reasons, but purely
as a piece of naval work il was a highly
creditable affair.
Several coveted Saint George
crosses were issued for this satisfactory
little expedition. Admiral Won Essen
can count now on getting every ounce
Of weight out OF the men under MS
command, so that the fleet as whole
has gained considerably ~ this clever
adventure"
The correspondent az The Hague Of
"The Evening News" transmits a rumor
from we'll informed sources that En-
peror William during the last week
paid q flying visit to Kicl, where he
spent several days.
1t is suggested at The Hague, the
correspondent continues, that this visit
foreshadows renewed activity by the
German fleet. which, as the Russian
ports soon will be icebound, will be
freed of the necessity Of watching the
Baltic.

The Michigan, returning with other
battleships from the Southern lri.l

stranded by recedirg tide. A heavy
fog hung over that portion of the bay.

Michigan at no time was considered in
danger. Tugs during high tide yester-
day made several unsuccessful at
tempts TO float her.
The Michigan came to anchor outside

very strong indications that the fres1
attempt by the Germans 70 force their
way TO Calais by turning or piercing
the Allies left wing has been aban-
doned almost as soon as begun. This
can mean only one thing the immedl-
ate retirement Of the Germans IN West
Flanders.
The Allies nave maintained tneIr line
intact from the North Sea TO Swltzer-
land. They are stronger at almos,
every point than ever before. Mobile
reinforcemeuts are ready for emergen-
cies. with excellent railway service 70
every important position.
The Germans have hurled enormous
fo~ces upon the northern portion ?t
the Allies line during the last SIX
weeks. but have been repeatedly re-
pulsed. Worst of all for them, 1t has
been impossible TO conceal the truta
rom the German soldiers, whose faith
i'm the invincibility Of the German ma
chine is shaken. If not shattered.
The proudest man IN Europe al me
moment is the heroic King Albert. Al

the Germans about 70 retreat, baked
