unarmed vessels while the crews were
on board, his refraining from bonn
harding the town, his stopping to
pick up the crew Of the Mosquet, al
though every minute was valuable to
him, at once made him that gentle
man, the captain of the Emden.' On
all sides you hear, i hope they sink
the Emden, but it will be shame if
any of her crew are lost

so, am very sorry, indeed Well,
he played the game and he has
made me, for one, feel extremely
doubtful whether the much-talker-of
German atrocities are true, except
where the exigencies of war has made
them unavoidable"
Here you have the story of an en-
gagement which will go down in his
tory as a demonstration that, even
under the conditions of modern naval
warfare, it is possible for two ships
Of almost equal armament to fight by
daylight at almost point blank range
without resulting the disabling of
both. A sight similar to that wit
messed yesterday would be consider
ed by most naval critics as impos-
sible, or, rather, suicidal.
The sad, or, rather, disgraceful,
part of the story has yet to be told.
It was true that the Jemtchug was

spending the night ashore, her decks

craftsmanship was poor. All this
could hardly be excused, but it be- !

ten seconds, while the Emden steam

No sooner had she done so, how
ever, than she sighted the torpedo
boat Mosquet, which had heard the
firing and was coming in at top
speed. The Emden Immediately
opened up on her thereby causing
her to turn around in an endeavor to
escape. 1t was too late. After a
running fight of twenty minutes the
Mosquet seemed to be hit by three
shells simultaneously and sank very
rapidly. The German had got a Sec

The Chivalrous Won Muller.
It was here that the chivalrous
bravery of the Emden's captain,
which has been many times in evil

was of priceless value to him. Never

candidacy on four tickets and said
that while party bosses could select
candidates they could not compel the
rank and file to support them.
Clark c. Fits referred briefly to Har-
land Il. Howe's charges on increased
state expenses, but his speech chiefly
concerned the senatorial campaign. He
praised Senator Dlllngham's legisla-
tive record and his action in the ma
tonal republican convention of 1908
when he advocated the reduction in
the number of southern delegates and
said that had his advice been fol-
lowed it would have been Of great bene-
fit to the Republican party. Mr.. Fits
then discussed at some length Mr.
Prouty's reference to him as a repre-
sentative of the interests and said that
the interests he represented were those
which were attempting to build UP the
industrial life Of the state Of Vermont
and he quoted Mr.. PrOuty as saying in
his speech at Barre that If he got to
the Senate he would tear down the
interests Mr.. Fits represented.
