PetroRrad, via London. Aug. 25.-
The recent naval battle in the gull OF
Riga is described as follows in a state
ment from navy headquarters:
..The German fleet on Aug. 16 re-
newed with large forces its attacks on
our position at the entrance to the
gulf. our ships during the 18th and
18th repulsed the attacks OF the enc
my, whose frequent preparation for
entering the gulf had been favored
singularly by misty weather.
"TakinR advantage of a thick log,
hostile forces Of considerable size en-
tered the gulf on the 18th and our
boats retired at the same time, con-
tinuing to resist the enemy "lthout
losing touch with him.
ION the 18th and 10th the enemy
reconnoitered In different directions,
at the same time keeping up hight
with our ships, in which their torpedo
fiotilla suffered losses. On our SIDE we
lost the gunboat Sivutch, which per-
ished Gloriously in an unusual hght
with IN enemy cruiser. which was es-
cortinE torpedo craft and came up TO
q distance Of 400 yards from her. The
Siyutch, enveloped in flames, contln-
ned 10 reply shot for shot until she
sank. having previously sunk the enc
my torpedo boats
Germans Leave Gulf.
an view OF the losses suffered and
the futility Of their efforts the enemy
aunearu TO have evacuated the Gull OF
Ri9a on the 21st.
aBetween the 18th and 21st two
enemy cruisers and no fewer than
eight torpedo boats were sunk or
placed hors de combat. Simultane-
sously our gallant ally succeeded in
torpedoing in the Baltic one Of the
:z:Ss: Po""erfn! "i llie
German fleet.
THE foregoing contains no reference
"a the loss Of the Russian gunboar
Koreets. which was said in an official
German statement of Saturday to have
been sunk as well as the Sivutch.
Russ Lose Only One Ship.
The little Russian gunboat Sivutch,
win a crew OF 148 men, is said by the
Petroxrad papers to be the only Rus
sian warsh:p lost in the battle in the
5Gulf Of Riga. Commander Tcherkas-
SOW. who distinguished himself at Port
Arthur, was IN charge of the Sivutch.
The number Of survivors has not been
announced.
lAltho the president of the duma an
nounces thal the German cruiser
Moltks had been sunk by British
submarine, there still appears to be
some doubt whether it was the Moltke
or a vessel Of that type which was
sent 10 the bottom.
The only German warship Of the type
OF the Molske according to 1915 naval
records. Is the battleship Goeben, sold
to Turkey in 1914 and renamed the
Sultan Se!im.

torpedoed by British submarine at
Haidar Pasha and the steamer Budos
of the German-L -Levant line loaded with
munitions and provision has been sunk

Britain and France Renew Hope Of
Russian Successes on Land.
London. Aug. 23.-The capitals Of the
entente allies are jubilant today over
tho unexpected naval victory which the
Russians, according to accounts, have
won in the Gulf of Riga. England had
more than a sympathetic interest In
the battle, as . British submarine ac-
counted for the German battle cruiser
Moltke. the loss Of which, added to the
destruction Of two, cruisers, eight tor
pedo boats and four transports, con-
stitutes the greatest naval disaster
suffered By Germany during the war.
For the last week both Petrograd
ana Berlin Eave been sending meager
reports Of naval operations In the Gulf
Of Riga, which were interpreted to
mean that Germany was attempting to
land forces for the purpose Of support
inx .xhe left flank Of Field Marshal Won
Hindenberx In his efforts to overrun
tha whole Of Courland and thereby es-
Ftabiish his armies along the coast
route TO the Russian capital.
The official Russian report, claiming
. decisive victory for the allies, to-
gether with the expulsion of the sur.
viving unit OF the German naval forces
from tho gulf, contains few details in
addition to an enumeration Of the Ger
mon losses.
Small Ships Did Il.
It is assumed that inasmuch as Pet
roxrad announced several days ago
that her large warships had returned
from the gulf, the mosquito hotilla, as
sisted by submarines and land de-
fences, visited unexpected destruction
upon q part Of the German feet and
transports.
The moral effect of this on the Rus
SLAMS is expected in London to be
great. as 1t will do much to allay the
depression incident to the continued
Hussian retreat, which has been ar,
rested nowhere except in the north
SECTOR from Riga to Kovno.

Baltic advance Of the Germans OF SUI
