BRITISH v|CTORS IN
NORTH SEA BATTLE.
ATTEMPT OF GERMAN SQUADRON
TO REPEAT ATTACKS ON ENG
LAND FRUSTRATED.
Armored Cruiser Eluecher Sunk and
Two Battle Cruisers Seriously
Damaged in Running Fight in
the North Sea.

LOndon.-An attempt by a German
cruiser squadron to repeat the attack
recently made ON Scarborough, the
HartlepOols and other British coast
towns, was frustrated Sunday by thu
British patrolling squadron, and in a
running fight in the North sea the
German armored cruiser Bluecher was
sunk and two battle cruisers were Sc.
riously damaged. The British ships
suffered only slight injury So far as
is known, only 123 Of the Bluechers
Grew Of S55 were saved.
A battle also occurred between the
light cruisers and destroyers accom-,
panying the bigger ships, but the re,
suit of this engagement has not yet
reached the admiralty.
The Germans were observed some
time after dawn proceeding in the di-
rection Of the British coast. When
they sighted the superior British fleet
they turned and made at full speed
for home waters and it was only after
stern chase that the faster British
ships got within range Of them.
For more than four hours the run.
ming battle lasted, the firing being
plainly heard in North Holland, where
1t was judged the fight took place
north of the islands Of Ameland and
Schiermonnik-Oog.
The Bluecher, which was slower
than the other German cruisers, fell
behind and succumbed to the heavier
guns of the Lion. which was leading
the British squadron. The other Ger.
man ships got within the mine and
submarine area, two of them in bad.
ly damaged condition and it was dan.
gerous for the British battle cruisers
to follow.
