Churchill was First Lord Of the Ad-
miralty, appointed in November, 1911.
With the siege Of Antwerp, during the
progress of the German advance
through Belgium, the troubles OF
Churchill began.
Sending a detachment of sailors from
the British feet TO the relief of the
besieged Belgian army and failure Of
that relief 20 attain anything beyond
retirement of the British across the
Holland border and their prompt in
ternment by the Dutch, brought a
food Of criticism upon Churchills
head.
The First Lord Of the Admiralty
himself had gone to Antwerp to look
over the situation and himself had ad-
yised the sending of the British force.
British public opinion, in October,
1914, had forced the resignation OF
Prince Louis of Battenberg, First Sea
Lord, because of his German ancestry.
In his place was named Lord Fisher, of
Kilverstcne. who had been First Sea
Lord from 1904 TO 1910, and to whom
Britain owed the development of the
superdreadnought.
With the beginning Of the campaign
10 force tho Dardanelles Churchill
came in for even more bitter criticism,
while serious differences over the con-
duet Of the campaign developed be-
tween the First Lord OF the Admiralty
and Lord Fisher.
In the meantime, Lord Fisher had
justified his efforts 20 come back" in
the destruction of Admiral Won Specs
feet, England generally believing that
had he been in Office at the outbreak
of the war, Admiral Craddock's fee
never would have been lost. So bitter
became the quarrel that first Churchill
resigned and then Lord Fisher retired
II was generally believed that Lore
Fisher had been responsible for the
successes and Churchill for the fail
ures.
After Churchill had stepped out, in
May. 1914, there was talk of making
Lord Fisher First Lord of the Ad-
miralty, but the place went to A. j

The rendezvous Of the British battle

The long months Of watchful waiting
by the British, however. were broken
into by two naval engagements in
which comparatively small squadrons
Of German warships were involved, and
IN both Of which the British we're vic
torious. On August 2s. 1914. Admiral
Sir David Beatty, on his flagship. the
battle cruiser Lion. led his SQUADRON
in daring dash into the Blight Of Hell
gcland. In an engagement almost
under the guns of this great
fortress three German armored cruis-
CTS and two destroyers were sunk, with
a loss Of $500 men.
Fight on Oolger Banks.
On January q. 1915. a German
squadron. attempting raid on the
British coast. encountered Admiral
Beatty of the DogPer Banks, and In a
running fight the German cruiser
Butcher was sunk and two Of her sis
ter ships were set on fire.
Several raids have been made by
German naval attachments on the Brit
ish coast, in which Yarmouth. Scar
borough. Whitby, Hartlepool an
Lowestoft have been bombarded. The
last of these raids occurred on April
26 last, when. according TO the German
claim. a British destroyer and two
scoutships were sunk.
The most serious losses to the Brit
ish feet hitherto have been through
the operations of German submarines
and by means Of mines. An instance OF
such losses occurred on September Y,

taken as an indication that the Ger
mans were advancing rather than re-
firing at that time.
Relative Strength Not Affected.
The battle has not materially az
fected the relative strength OF the
fleets, according 20 the view Of Amer
can officers. The German admitted
losses do not represent a serious cur
tailment OF her sea fighting force.
While the British losses are much
greater, they have a greater reserve
strength, more ships of every type, and
the loss Of three battle-cruisers, two
of which were comparatively old. is not
thought 90 have weakened the naval
preponderance OF the Allies in any seri-
Gus degree. .,,
