KAISER PRAISES HIS SAILORS FOR
 JUTLAND BATTLE
Says 'Tyrannical Suprem- acy" of English Fleet
 Is Shattered

Berlin, June 7.-In the complete ac- count of the Emperor's speech to the sailors of the fleet at WilhelmshaVen yesterday which was published here ing that the great naval battle off JutIand has destroyed Great Britain's supremacy on the sea.
 When the great war came," the Emperor said, 'envfous enemies sud- denly attacked the Fatherland. The superior foes, slowly conquered but the fleet waited in vain for a real fight. In numerous individual encoun- ters the navy clearly indicated it's fe- rocious spirit but was forced to wait month after month for general bat tie.
 Repeated efforts were made to bring the enemy out but they proved fruitless until the day finally came last week when the gigantic fleet Of Albion, ruler of the seas since Trafal- gar was fought 100 years ago, ap- peared in the open surrounded with a ninbus. Instantly our fleet engaged this superior British armada and with what result? The English fleet was beaten. The first big blow was dealt the English fleet, whose tyrannica1 su- premacy was shattered.
 "The news electrified the world and caused unprecedented jubilation ev- anywhere that German hearts beat Our success in the North Sea fight means that you have added a new chapter to the history of the world God Almighty steeled your arm and gave you clear eyes to accomplish | this.
 "I, standing here today as your su-
 preme war lord, thank you from the l bottom of my heart. As the repre- 1 sentative of the Fatherland I thank you and in the name of my army l bring you it's greetings because yor
 have done your duty unselfshly and
 only with the one thought that the
 enemy must be beaten. | E'At a time when the enemy is slowly
 being crushed before Verdun ana when our allies have driven the Ital
 ians from mountain te mountain you add new glories to our cause. Tht
 world was prepared for everything bu
 not for the victory of the German flee 1 over the English. The start whicT you have made will cause fear tt | creep into the bones of the enemy | What you have done you did for tht
 Fatherland, that in the future it may l have freedom of the seas for it's com
 merce. Therefore, I ask you to joi1
 me in three cheers for our dearly be- i loved Fatherland.''
