THEY OPPOSE 7. R.
Gesman.Americans Take Active
Hand in Campaign.
Prevent Nomination at All
Costs, They Say.
BY PERRY ARNOLD.

Chicago, June 3.-German-Amerf
cans took an active hand in the pre-
convention fight against Theodore
Roosevelt today.
Some of the big three" Penrose,
Barnes and Crane, were bombarded
with kilograms asking them to pre-
vent at all costs the nomination of
the colonel by the Republican con-
vention next week.
Senator Penrose, it was reported,
had heard from the Pennsylvania Ger
mans today. There have been per-
sistent rumors that Penrose, while
perhaps not ready to lend his active
support to Roosevelt would at least
not fight against him.
Favorite sons hoped against hope
today that the Roosevelt-Hughes sit
uation would develop deadlock
which would furnish an opportunity
for a compromise
The delegates on hand today were
frank in their statements that so far
Roosevelt apparently has the best OF
the bargain.
Among arrivals today was former
Governor Franklin Murphy of New
Jersey. Murphy, formerly a foe o.
Colonel Roosevelt, was said by some
politicians along Candidates Row
| to be ION the fence regarding Roose

the war office and the admiralty.
All naval writers of Berlin newspa-
pers acclaim the fleet. The official
statement furnishes the only informa-
ton to date. The statement of VIM
ston Churchill that the British fleet
would drag the Germans out like rats

Scheer Was in Command.
Amsterdam, June S.-Advices from
Berlin says Vice Admiral Scheer, COM
mander of the German battle fleet,
was in personal command of the Ger
man forces in the battle off the Jut-
land coast, while the scout division
was under direction of Vice Admiral
Hyper.
The German forces consisted of the
German prize fleet with dreadnaughts.
older ships of the line, battle cruisers,
all the light sea forces at present in
the North sea, torpedo destroyers and
submarine flotilla. Admiral Hipper
came into contact with the enemy
about o'clock in the afternoon when
he engaged a squadron of British bat
tie cruisers and light cruisers. Sub
seGuently the whole fleets on both
sides engaged and the fighting lasted
until in the evening. Later on in the
night there were sharp engagements
between torpedo destroyers and cruis-
ers.
Testify to Bravery of Enemy.
The leading German vessels alone
sank six modern destroyers. All re-
ports from the German sea forces
which participated in the battle agree
on the bravery shown by the enemy
in the long battle. The crews of the
German torpedo boats which were
sunk have not been heard from but
the majority of the men on the Brit
ish vessels which were lost were res
cued despite the unfavorable weather
Naval airships gave valuable aid in
accommodating before and after the
battle.
Vice Admiral Scheer was appointed
commander of the German battle fleet
in February of this year, succeeding
Admiral Won Pohl. who retired on ac-
count of i'll health. Admiral Scheer
is considered one of the ablest tacti-
clans in the German navy. He was
for long time director of the general
marine department at the admiralty
and also served as chief of staff of
the high seas and commander of a
battle squadron.
Admiral Hipper was in command
of the German squadron which fought
