Suit Is Costly.

Royal Shaw probably will be willing to
confine his compliments to the national
commission or national board after this.
shaw sued the San Francisco club for
s21LS5 in wages alleged to be due him.
A jury in court decided he had nothing
coming and stuck him for s213.9O in costs.
II would have cost him only a 2-cent
stamp to lay his case before the COM
mission or the board, and he wouldn't
have had lawyers to pay in addition 10

BY BRITISH
ADMIRALTY
Declares German Ac-
counts of North Sea
Battle Are False
Assert Grounds for Belief that
German Losses Are Much
Greater than Stated by leu
ton Sources

London, June IA statement issu-
ed tonight by the British admiralty,
confirming previous accounts of the
battle between the British and German
fleets reiterates that the German ac-
counts of the German losses ere false
ard that although the evidence is
still incomplete, enough is known to
justify stating that the German losses
were greater than the British, mot
merely relatively to the strength of
the two fleets, but absolutely"
There is the strongest ground for
believing, says the statement, that the
German losses included TWO battle
ships, two dreadnoughts battle cruis-
ers Of the most powerful type, and two
of the latest light cruisers, in addition
to smaller craft, including subma-
rine.

THINK ROOSEVELT
ALREADY DEFEATED
and Progressive Leaders Are Rapid
" Becoming Convinced Colonel Cannot Win
Republican Nomination over Hughes At
tempt to Criticize Justice Because He Has Not
Announced Position on Current Issues

Chicago, June For some
unknown reason there is a
growing conviction tonig hit
among both Republican and
Progressive leaders assembled
here for the National Conven-
tons that Col. Roosevelt will not
be nominated by the older party.
Among those who hold to this
view are many numbered among
the Colonel's closest friends who
none less are not giving up the
fight.
The leaders who take this
view of the situation seem to
think that Justice Hughes is the
man who could bring the Re-
publican and Progressive parties
together and present a solid
front to the Democratic oppo-
sition even though they are not
convinced that the justice can
win the nomination.

Text of Statement

The text Of the statement follows:
Until the commander-in-ch chief has
had time to consult the officers en-
gagged and write full dispatch, any
attempt to give a detailed history of
the naval engagement which began on
the afternoon Of the 31st of May and
ended in the morning hours of the first
of June would evidently be premature.
But the results are quite plain.
The Grand fleet came in touch with
Il German high seas fleets at $50 on
the afternoon of May 81. The leading
ships of the two fleets carried on

Battle at Ypres

The Canadian troops and the Ger
mans have been battling tiercely on
the Ypres salient. The German guns
opened up several days ago, deluging
the Canadian positions and the sur
rounding territory with shells. Then
the German infantry advanced along
an extended front of almost two miles.
capturing trenches. In series OF
counter-attacks, in which bomb and
bayonet played an important part, the
Canadians regained most of the lost
ground and have reOrganized their
positions.
On the Russian front violent artil-
lery duels are going on in the Bessa-
rabian and Volhynian sectors. Several
Russian infantry attacks against the
Austrians were repulsed.
The Italians in the region OF Ar
Siero are holding the Austrians from
further advances in the desperate
struggle that is going on in this re-
gion. The Austrians with large eff
fectives attempted to break through
the Italian line in the direction of
Onaro, but were driven back. The
commandments are still heavy on the
other sectors of the Austro-ltalian
front.
According to unofficial advices from
Salonili, Gen. Sarrail, the French COM
mander, has declared martial law in
the entire zone occupied by the En-
tente allies and the allied troops have
taken over the telegraph offices, the
port and customs house at Saloniki.

The third phase was the engagement
of batteships, which never was more
than partial. This phase included a run
ming fight, as the German dreadnoughts
fled toward their bases. All the big ship
fighting was over by 915 F. NJ.
Oestroyers Advance
Then came one of the most weird feat
ures of the battle, as German destroyers
made attack after attack, like infantry
following artillery preparation, on our
big ships; but these onslaughts were sin
gularly futile, not a single torpedo launch

these is the torpedong Of the super-
dreadnought Marlborough, which is now

as by skilful maneuvering she avoided
three Of these before she was finally hit.
German Vessel Broke in Two
Early in the engagement, accord
ing to Admiral Beatty's report, a Ger
man battle cruiser after being holly
engaged, blew up and broke in two.
Officers Of the fleet also reported
passing a closely engaged German bat
tie cruiser which was left behind
while the British pursued the Ger
mans. On their return this vessel was
missing Judging from her previous
plight, she must now be at the bot
tom of the sea. This accounts for two
of the enemys battle cruisers, and we
have their admission that they have
lost two battleships
The admiralty has report of the
sinking of four German light cruisers.
and the Germans have acknowledged
the loss of six destroyers. There is
very good hope that the German loss is
even greater; but we do not intend to
make any estimates until we have
complete official reports from our
commanders, who do not report the loss
of antagonists without definite evil
dence.

Pessimism Lessened

The pessimism which prevailed as d
result of the admiraltys original state
ment of losses, which is now consid-
cred to have been needleSsly candle
and conservative in under estimating
the extent of the German losses as
compard with these of Great Britain
has been greatly lessened by the latest
statement
dispatch from Copenhagen says
rumors are current m Hamburg that
two German Warships besides those
announced in the German communlca-
tion-the battleship Westfalen and the
battle cruiser LutZoW-Were sunk in
the battle. A wireless dispatch received
here Saturday from Berlin said the
German admiralty admitted the loss Of
the Westfalen.
The admiralty statement tonight de-
clares that the German losses in the
fight were not only relatively but abb
solutely greater than those of the Brit
ish. Maintaining its practice Of eau
ton. the admiralty still refrains from
giving the names of the lost Germa n
ships.
The official list of the casualties
among officers shows that hardly sin
gle officer of the line escaped from the
British cruisers which were sunk in the
battle. An additional casualty list of
officers shows that AZ of them were
saved from the interchangeable, Defense.

Admiral Lord Beresford in an interview
while contending strongly for the view
that there was no failure in the British
strategy, and that Vice Admiral Beatty
won a brilliant success, though it was
dearly bought. declares that the only mis-
take made was by the admiralty in allow
ing the Germans to get first in the field
with the news of the battle, or. as he puts
It. with impudent fabrications." Other
wise. said Lord Beresford, no fault can
be found with the admiralty
