NAVAL BATTLE
At NIGHT SAID

According to Letter From
West Indies, Number OF
Vessels Engaged in Warm

mas Night.
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.


Montreal Jan. IA detailed de-
scription of naval battle off Grenada,
British West Indies, Is given in let
ter received here today from an eye
witness who asserts that In his opin-
ion the German cruiser Karlsruhe took
part and was sunk.
The letter was dated Grenada, De-
cember 80. The writer asserts that
after the battle life buoy came ashore
marked %. NJ. S. Karlsruhe" together
with wreckage and barrels. He writes
that fisherment had had brought the
news that they had seen dead bodies
floating in the vicinity of the battle,
numbers OF candles marked Kaiser
Llgat," boots with feet in them, he'll
NETS and other wreckage.
The letter read In part:
'It may interest you to know that
on Thursday evening the 25th ul-
timo, while at my house, on ridge
overlooking the sea to the north Of
Grenada, witnessed naval engage
ment which was undoubtedly carried
on between twenty warships. The &C
ton lasted from o'clock p. m. to
II p. m. and appeared to be on the
very horizon to the north and north
west of the island. As the darkness
increased it was quite apparent when
broadsides of projectiles exploded
within seconds of each other on either
side, within range OF four to six
miles.
81 did not hear the explosion of the
shells, as the fight was too far away
but as the fight went on. the position
of the combatants veered around to
the north and east and increased in
severity. Nobody in ST. Patricks ap
peared to have noticed what had hap
pened, and though made diligent in
quiry, 1 could not get my theory of q
fight supported. Whether the govern
ment knew of the engagement or not
they certainly censored all news as
regards it.
six days afterwards I was con-
firmed in my opinion by the fact that
Sauteurs fishermen fishing in the Car
riacon channel brought in the news
that they had met dead bodies float
ing in the water together with num-
berless candles, marked Kaiser light

"On my portion of an island called
Isle of Rhondre. life buoy came
ashore marked IS. M. s. Karlsruhe"
and besides wreckage and barrels OF
food stuffs. I am the lucky possess
sor of an officers' sword, which came
ashore wrapped up carefully in oil
cloth.
All this confirms NV conviction
that not only did an engagement oc-
cur, but that the dreaded Karlsruhe
has been sunk"
The letter was made public by the
Montreal Gazette and was received by
member Of the Gazette staff from
one of his friends at Grenada.

For many OF those who will vote for

both sides, and promised vote some
time after z o'clock this evening.
To the cheers of supporters of both
sides packed in opposite galleries, the
house plunged into debate fully as
spectacular as that which attended the
vote in prohibition amendment some
time ago.
Representative Webb of North Car
olina, leading off in opposition to the
amendment, said that he believed that
If the question was voted on by the
women of the country, more than so
per cent would vote against suffrage,
and that 80 per cent of the good moth
ers of the country were opposed to 1t.
Mr.. Webb charged that woman suff-
rage was more or less fad. These
agitating women suffragists want
something to ,agitate about, and if they
should find nothing to agitate about
they would be disappointed" he said.
IF they can get it they don't want It,
if they can't get it they'll carry on
agitation for 1t. /, for one" he con-
cluded, shall vote against this amend
ment to protect womankind against

Representative Taylor, Of Colorado,
advocated the amendment.
Representative Mondell co-author Of
the resolution, urged its adoption.

MondelI
If some fortunate women are so
happily content under present condi-
tions that they do not desire the bal

argumen against allowing those wo-
men to vote who desire so to.
"The nation has seen fit to prohibit

or previous condition OF servitude.

priety prohibit discrimination on ac-

KARLSRUHE WAS HEARD
FROM IN OCTOBER LAST

The Karlsruhe last was definitely
heard from on October Is, when she
captured the Lamport and Holt liner
Van Dyck. which was the cruisers
seventeenth victim.
No vessels, SO far as is known, have
been captured by the Karlsruhe since
Oct. rs. The presence of the speedy
British battle cruiser Princess Royal
In the waters in which the Karlsruhe
had been operating was supposed in
maritime circles to have curtailed her
activities.
The British admiralty has made no
announcement concerning the reported
sinking Of the Karlsruhe. Nor has it
intimated that any British warships
have been in action with or have even
sighted the Karlsruhe. Heretofore the
admiralty has been prompt to an
nounce any disaster to German war
ships.
