Berlin. June 5, by wireless to the Press from a staff corre- spondent, via Sayville.-An authorita- tive account of the North Sea battle which was issued here today gives the first detailed picture of the progres of the naval engagentei1t between the German high sea fleet and that of the British. The main details of the bat tie are suppressed for strategical req sons. This account declares explicitly that 26 of Admiral Jelicoe's most powerful battleships, including six of the most modern Queen Elizabeth wing. composed of battle cruisers equal in every respect except armor protection to dreadnaughts, were en- gagged in all but the early stages of the day battle.
 The fleet thus assembled surpassed in tonnage and weight of broadsides the German force engaged; was at least equally modern and was far su- perior to the squadron of German pre- dreadnaughts which, numbering along at IS or 19 knots were soon left far to the rear by their swifter consorts, out of the main action.
 For obvious reasons, the recital leaves untold tales of damages sus- tained by German units and the losses in personnel.

 gents May Turn to Him on
 Second Ballot. t
Colonel Won't Get More Than 200 Votes at the Outside, Leaders of the old Guard Say, While His Strength In Convention May Be Only 15O.

Chicago, June 5-The move ment for the nomination of Justice Hughes today took on the aspects of a genuine boom. Arrivals brought evidences of sentiment in favor of the jurist and men who have been identi- fled with the Old Guard of the Republican party declare that many delegates instructed for others were ready to turn their votes to him after the first bal lot.
 The lack of controlling leadership by the men who have composed the Old Guard is emphasized on every hand They express themselves as not favoring Justice Hughes for any re-son of personality but because the delegates bring first hand reports of sentiment from the states, believing that he can be the harmonizer who can rehabilitate the party. and bring in the Progressive strength. On ev- cry hand explanations are sought as to the for or against sentiment to- ward Roosevelt.
 Republican leaders, after a canvas today declared that Col. Roosevelt's s ultimate strength would not be more
 
 they believe the number would be narrowed to 150. It is asserted that the remaining 75O or 800 delegates would not vote him under any cir cumstances.
 It was pointed out that when state delegations were selected, it was ex- pected Roosevelt would be a strong factor and probably a. candidate. Men were chosen who were believed to be for harmony which leaders say is not eynonfmous with Roosevelt, and are regarded therefore, as not of the stampeda'ble type. The great mass of delegates are uninStructed and are counted on to vote for any man who can bring a majority of the Pro- gressives to the Republican fold.
 All talk of demanding a pre-conven- tion statement from Justice Hughes las a candidate of his nomination has i practically been abandoned. It was i talked of last night but today it has been eliminated from the discussions. It is generally agreed that the justice will continue to preserve his silence while he occupies a place on the su- preme court. bench, but that if nomin- ated he will immediately make a sat isfactory statement of his position on national questions which will be an issue in the campaign.
 Word has gone out from Governor Whitman's headquarters that it is fu-

ships manoeuvred and the deadly sure ness of the German craftsmanship al- though it is an open secret that these three factors were larg1y responsible for the achievements of the Germans.
 It is shown that the Germans on this occasion, unlike the Duggerbank engagement, of cruiser fsquadrons, were able to choose their distance and fight considerable portions of the bat tie at ranges of about eight miles now ranked as a moderate distance at which the German 1E and 12 inch guns were virtually as effective in penetrating power as the big mouthed f3's, and 15's with which the modern British giants are armed. Futher- more, they are far superior in rapid ity of fire.
 Naval experts have told the Asso- most decisive factors in the titanic struggle. German batt1eships and battle cruisers were able to show the British with a. hail of shell which, at a range of eight miles and som etim es even closer, smashed and riddled British armor belts and wrought havoc to ships vitals. The ponder ous British proiectiles naturally were no less effective but the Armstrong and Whiteworth monsters could land scarcely one punch to each two from the vicious Krupp 11-tnchers. The hay weather was Germany'S friend as it necessitated action at closer range. ...4as. aa2MsA111lz

 'Yes, they were alive in the sea of dead. Two died from exhaustion and we were just able to drag the others back from the edge of the grave. When we took them on board they were only able to mutter the words: From Shark-Went down battle.' ''

Sadagura, Converging Place of
Five Railroads, Is Re-
ported Taken
S NEAR CZERNOWITZ
Russians Are Attaining Their
Objects; French Occupy
Corfu

London, Jan. s. - The news FROM
the eastern front of the capture of
sadagura is regarded in military cir
cles as probably true, although off,
cial announcement of the subject has
not been received. The town, which
lies few miles northeast of CZerno-
witz and is q converging point for
five railroads, has considerable
strategic Importance and previous at
tempts TO capture it have been stout
Iy resisted. Experts say Sadagura is
really OF more importance than
Czernowitz on account Of its stronger
natural position and facilities.
The report from Petrograd that the
offensive in Galicia and Bessarabia
had been suspended for the present
is regarded as at least premature. The
Russian offensive could not, it is be-
lieved, be suspended suddenly, as 1t
was undertaken after careful prep
aration and launched with unexpected
strength. The object of that often

demonstrate TO the Rnmanian that
the Russian forces are able 70 assume
the initiative when they chose; sec
ondly, to divert Austro- German force
from the Balkans and finally to inl-
prove the general strategic position OF
their own left flank.
While the full effect of this Rus
sian offensive cannot yet be deter
mined, entente military experts affirm
that the second object was attained,
that the situation in the Balkans was
sensibly relieved and that the opera

Fiercest They Had Ever
Seen, Witnesses Say

Philadelphia, Pa, Jan. lS. The
bowl fight. which has been an annual
vania for more than half century,
as well as similar forms of class

the result of yesterdays battle be-

supervision, were adopted by under

editorial to-day urges the abolition of
the practice.
Contests of Brute Strength
Provost Smith and many members
of the board of trustees also record
ed their disapproval of the fights.
THE university has outgrown class
fights which no longer settle the moot
question of underclass activity" says
The Pennsylvania.
Freshmen and sophomores no
longer enter these so-called tests of
superiority in a spirit OF frolic. They
go into them feeling that they must
do so for the name of their class,
and without the light-hearted spirit
formerly prevalent. The fights are
now contests of brute strength, and,
though waged without malice, are
liable TO result disastrously at any
time. In no quarter is opposition ex-
pected to the recommendation that a
safe and saner form of interclass
rivalry be substituted for that which
