enemy columns to the west, consisting
OF six battle cruisers and great num-
ber of small cruisers.
The enemy passed towards tho

tive fire on southern southeastern
courses. During the battle two Eng
lish battle cruisers and one destroyer
were sunk.
After half an hours fighting. heavy
enemy re-enforcements. later observed
TO be five vessels OF the Queen Eliza
beth class. were sighted to the north.
Soon afterwards the German main
force entered the fight. and the enemy
at once turned north.
The British commander. driving bis
ships at full speed, attempted to evade
our extremely effective fire by taking
an echelon formation. our fleet fol-
lowed at ;op speed the movements OF
the enemy. In the course OF this

the Achilles or Shannon class and two
destroycrS were sunk. while number
