British Loose 143 Vessels.

London, March 20, 1O:45 a. NJ
GERMAN submarine raids during the
week ending March II resulted in the
loss OF eight British vessels with a
total tonnage of 22,825 out of 1889
arrivals and sailings, according to a
summary issued today by the admir-
ATTY. Three other vessels which were
torpedoed were able to reach port.

Fate Hangs in Balance.
London, March 20, 1904 D. M
with the Russian Black sea fleet re-
ported knocking at the door of the
Bosphorus and six allied battlesh1ps
eneWlng the bomba rdment of the Tnr-
klsh positions on the Dardanelles. the
late OF the straits is today hanging in
the balance, according to opinions
freely expressed in London. Neverthe-
less, reports from Turkish sources still
profess supreme confidence in the
impregnability of the defending forts
which, it is claimed, have successfully
sustained bombardment over twen-
ty-one days. The report Of the Brit
1sh admiralty giving news of the
sinking Of three hattleships, two
British and one French, is rather hazy
as to the results achieved by this sac
rifice, and it gives weight to the grow
ing belief that the straits will not be
won until the naval operations are
supported by effective land forces.
The bombardment of Friday was in
terrupted by bad weather, but it is an
ticin TO- ba hn
be pushed as rapidly as possible.
Gaulois Suffered.
The French admiralty, while ex-
pressing the hope that some members
of the crew Of the battleship Bouvet
have been saved, confirms reports
from neutrol sources that the Fench
battleship Gaulois also suffered Sc
verely in the battle of March Is.
While Turkish official reports MIN
imize the effect of the bombardment
and declare that Constantinople is
not afraid, intelligence received from
other near eastern points sets forth
that negotiations already have been
begun with the American embassy to
act as an intermediary to save the OF
toman capital from the guns of the
allied warships.
Karlsruhe Sunk.
Rumors of the destruction of the
German sea raider Karlsruhe have
received some confirmation by the
guarded statement Of the British adj
miralty that there is every reason to
believe that this cruiser was sunk In
the West Indies the beginning of No
vember.
Relative inaction prevails along
both battle fronts in Europe, which
again seem to have relapsed into the
conditions of siege warfare which pre-
vailed during the winter. Austrian re-
ports by way of Berlin claim that the
Russian offensive movement in the
Carpathians through the Lupkow Pass
has resulted in failure, but direct re-
norts from both Vienna and Petro-
grad agree that Austrians as we'll as
Russians are making attacks and
counter attacks in the Carpathians
without any decisive results.
