ALLIES MAKE ADVANCE
BRITISH JusILANT OVER DE-
sTRucTIoN OF FOE IN FIGHT
OFF FALKLAND ISLANDS.


Western Newspaper Union News Service.
London, Dec. 10.--A British squad
ron under command of Vice Admiral
Sir Frederick Sturdee, chief of the war
staff, engaged German squadron un-
der Admiral Count won. Spec off the
Falkland Islands in the South Atlantic
and won a victory which is being ac-
claimed throughout England.
The armored cruisers Scharnhorst
and Gneisenau and the protected cruis-
sr Leipzig. three of the German war
ships which had been menacing Brit
ish shipping and part of the squadron
which sank the British cruisers Good
Hope and Monmouth In the Pacific on
November first. were destroyed, while
the cruisers Dresden and Nurnberg,
the other two vessels which composed
the German squadron. made off during
the fight and, according to latest ac-
counts. are being pursued. Two col
liers were captured.
The announcement of this engage
ment and victory, which was the most
important naval engagement of the
war, with the exception of that off
Heligoland last August, was made We'd
nesday evening In statement by the
admiralty OF less than 100 words.
The official statement makes refer
ence to some survivors rescued from
the Gneisenau and the Leipzig, but no
mention is made of any of the crew Of
the Scharnhorst, which was the flag
ship OF the German admiral, being
saved. and 1t Is thus presumed that
Count Won Spec, his officers and men,
went down fighting.
The greatest enthusiasm prevailed
In London over the victory and the
general impression is that 1t will be
completed, as the admiralty would not
send ships that could not overtake the
Dresden and Nurnberg, which are "a
knot and 23-knot vessels respectively,
and probably even slower after their
long services. They are at disad-
vantage also because OF their small
coal capacity.
In addition to the Dresden and
Nurnberg only one German warship,
the Karlsruhe. is now unaccounted for
in those waters, although there may
be one or two armed merchantmen
which the allies have not rounded up.
AS the Scharnhorst and Gneisenau
each carried a complement of 765 men,
the Leipzig 286, the Nurnberg 1922 and
the Dresden 261, the total German loss
is estimated at not far from 1000 men.

Dogs Capture Mountain Lion.>

E'enver--It is reported from Fort
Collins that the first days hunting
with the pack of trained dogs shipped
into Estes Park for the purpose of
hunting predatory animals resulted in
the capture of mountain lion. The
lions trail was picked up on the High
drive north of Moraine park and was
followed into the rough country to the
west of Rockdale hotel. Shortly after
taking up the scent the dogs treed the
lion within half a mile of the hotel.
where it was killed by forest hunters.
Settlers and ranch owners in the vicin.
ity of the park are much elated over
the early success of the forest service
plan of using hunting dogs in the ex-
termination of predatory animals and
anticipate that before the winter is
over most of these marauders. which
have caused such serious loss to their
live stock in the past, will have been
eliminated.
