cial British statement which said the
batteries at Hartlepool had damaged
at least one of the vessels which ap-
peared there.
Most Daring Raid of War.
1t is the most daring and success
full exploit the Germans have per-
formed in the war. amazing in its saw
age thoroughness. All England is
alarmed and enraged because a squad
ron Of Germany's most dangerous war
craft was permitted to escape from
the kiel canal and remain undetected
long enough to give Englishmen even
a light experience of the horrors of
war that have come to Belgium and
France
There is fear that an invasion will
be attempted, but there is more reason
to believe that the devastating raid
was the first stroke of a great coup.
Germany, it is positively known, has
been planning for weeks a concerted
rush of battle cruisers and dread
naughts from Helgoland and the mouth
OF the Elbe, in an attempt to ruin
British commerce on the Atlantic.
Many Dead at AartIepooI.
It is officially announced that at
Hartlepool seven soldiers were killed
and ii wounded and % civilians were
killed and so wounded.
The admiralty places the casualties
at Scarborough at II, but refugees
from that city say that IS persons
were killed there At Whitby two
were killed and two wounded.
Precautions which are being taken
by the military authorities indicate
that they do not consider that today's
raid will end the efforts of Germany.
British Expect New Attack.
The Newcastle Chronicle, according
to dispatch reaching London this
evening, says there is a probability of
a hostile attack on Tynemouth, in
Northumberland, at the mouth of the
Tyne, and about twenty-five miles
north of HartIepool
Started on Monday Night.
1t was supposed that the admiralty
was thoroughly prepared to prevent
such raid as occurred, and German

RUSSIANS FLEE

Berlin Hopes Invasion Peril End
ed-CZar Denies Disaster.
CHECK ENEMY IN GALICIA
Statement From Petrograd Claims
Muscovites Have Captured Three
Thousand PrIsoners-Army
Lines Rearranged.

London, Dec. 21-AIthough there
seems no doubt that the Russians are
retreating and that for the present
any anticipations the allies may have
held Of an early invasion Of Germany
must be dismissed, considerable mys-
terry surrounds the reported decisive
victory by the Germans which Berlin
celebrated.
The following statement from the
general staff of the Russian army was
made public in Petrograd:
On the left bank of the Vistula an
almost complete lull has replaced the
attacks made by the enemy. All Of
these attacks we repUlsed.
In connection with the advance Of
part Of our troops toward the Bzura
river RUSSIAN Poland) and in view of
the fact that the Austrians are contin-
ually receiving re-enforcements in the
Carpathians, we have thought fit to re-
arrange the positions of some> of our
armies.
We checked the offensive of the
enemy in western Galicia. We have
captured 5000 prisoners, several guns
and mitrailleuses"
Berlin, Dec. 10, by wireIess.-The Of
fetal press bureau gave out the fol-
lowing items:
In Poland we continue to pursue
the retreating enemy.
Although the headquarters report
is chary Of details there is general ex-
pectation that the Russian defeat will
prove to have been complete. From
details already available, however, it
seems safe to say that the ViVtory has
freed Germany for long period from
any possible menace of invasion from
the east.

London, Dec. 17-Germany daring.
ly attacked England herself early in
the morning.
After dash across the North sea
on misty night, a German f1otilIa
bombarded Hartlepool, Scarborough
and Whitby, unfortified cities on the
east coast of England, early in the
morning.
Some thirty women and men were
killed. Churches were ruined. hotels.
dwellings and stores were DESTROYED
by the bOmbardment, which endured
40 minutes, after which the Germans
steamed nOrthward from Scarborough
and escaped pursuing British cruisers.
The gun flashes indicated that four
big warships were firing. One shell
that has been picked up was II inches
in diameter and 33 inches long.
The exploding shells of the bold
cruisers which slipped through the
British fleet and the guard ships and
lodged the mines thickly strewn in
the North sea, dug holes in the streets
of Scarborough so wide and deep that
a railway truck could pass through
them.
Warships Repel Raiders.
Hurriedly called by wireless, British
warships fastened from the nearest
points to attack the enemy. But the
German cruiser force, made I'D of
their fastest cruisers, escaped in the
mist from the British squadron.
The squadron which shelled Hartle-
pool, where the bombardment was
most destructive to life and property.

nounces, of two battle cruisers and an
armored cruiser, while from four to
six light cruisers attacked Scarbor-
ough and Whitby.
Germans Escape in Foo.
The German squadron escaped prac-
tically unframed. The organized pur-
suit that drew England's great ships
from their stations at sea could not
catch up or cut off the fast raiders.
The Germans had in their favor a
heavy mist, which covered the sea.
and they made a rapid withdrawal
after dropping shells on the coast
