RUSS WIN BIG NAVAL FIGHT
German Cruiser Reported Destroyed
in Battle in Baltic Sea-Other
Warships Damaged.

London, Aug. ia German bat
tie cruiser was destroyed and several
other German warships severely dam
aged in a great naval battle with the
Russian fleet in the Baltic sea near
Oesel island, at the entrance to the
Gulf of Riga, according to news dis
patches from Petrograd. 1t is assert
ed that, though the firing was ter
rife, the Russian feet escaped any
loss or serious injury.
Russian seaplanes again rendered
invaluable assistance, it is declared
1t is believed that the German OBJ
jective was to bottle up the Russian
fleet in the Gulf of Finland or the
Gulf of Bothnia, but the seaplanes
gave warning in time to prevent such
an issue.
The location of the battle indicates
that the Germans are trying desper-
ately to assist their northern armies
with supplies and re-enforcements
from the sea, but the Russian de-
fensive action appears able to foil
such a move.
