WIS was sunk during the naval en-
gagement. Three survivors who were
rescued from raft by Swedish
steamship reported that all the rest OF
the crew Of 102 were lost
The survivors Of the V-2s. according
70 this dispatch. said they believed
twenty German torpedo boats were de-
stroyed, and that the German losses as
a whole were colossal"
Details of the sinking Of the German
cruiser Elbing were learned at Ymuiden
to-day from Dutch crews, German sail
ors and the Dutch military commander
Of Hmuiden, who spoke TO three Of the
German cruisers officers
The Elbing, according to these re-
ports. was a new and fast cruiser Of
about 1000 or 5000 tons. and carried
crew OF 400. The British gunfire caused
such destruction on the ship that Cap
tain Mailing who was among the three
officers saved, decided TO have the
valves opened and 10 allow the vessel
TO sink.
Before the Elbing went down the
bulk OF the crew was taken over by
a German torpedo boat, but doubts may
be expressed as to whether the sailors
arrived safety AZ Wilhelmshaven

Two British admirals and practically
the entire personnel Of the British
ships sunk were lost with the vessels.
Rear Admiral Horace Hood went down
on the Invincible, on which Rear Ad-
miral Arbuthnot also was lost. Vice
Admiral Beatty escaped without injury.
The latter, reporting on the death
Of Rear Admiral Horace Hood. who was
flying his flag from the Invincible as
second in command Of the British battle
cruiser squadron, said:

with the most inspiring courage"
Rear Admiral Hood married Mrs.

Vice-Admiral Beatty also reported
with extreme regret the deaths of Cap

men were saved from the Queen Mary.
Commander Danneruther and one other
officer were rescued from the lnvincible.
All other officers aboard these battle
cruisers and all officers on the hide

were lost.
The greatest regret is felt here over
the loss of the battle-cruiser Queen
Mary. which was one Of the show ships
of the navy. She was only completed
at Jarrow in 1918. Her crew alone was
composed of about / 900 men. The 9TH

I'll the vessel foundered, when they left
in a lifeboat. Later they were picked
up by a Dutch trawler.
Many Warships Were Blazing.
Members Of the Dutch crew said that
when the Elbing sank the sea was
covered with driftwood and dead bodies
were floating around. The sailors saw
German warship in sinking condi-
ton sunk by British cruiser. Others
noticed warships blazing.
The Copenhagen correspondent Of
the Exchange Telegraph Company sends
word that fishermen who arrived last
night at Esbjerg, Denmark, reported
they had seen outside Blaavandsluk
several hundred bodies Of British and
German sailors. On the water were
large quantities OF oil, apparently from
submarines.

Two British AdmiralS Go Down
with 5000 of WarShip Crews

Of the men were carried from the cars
in stretchers. while others with heads
or arms bandaged or showing marks
Of burns and scalds walked along the
platform 20 waiting ambulances.
There is no news OF the crews Of
other ships lost. but the Germans re-
port that they picked up some, and a
few have arrived at neutral ports.
The German loss Of life must have
been almost as great as that Of the
British if the British estimate Of the
destruction Of two battleships and a
battle-cruiser and other smaller ships
is correct
The scenes at the Admiralty this
morning were most distressing, the big
building being besieged by relatives
and friends of the crews that were in
the engagement. A splendid system has
been devised to give them information
as soon as 10 is received. Naturally,
however, the Admiralty is still without
details. Similar scenes were witnessed
at the various naval ports from which
the crews were drawn.
Eighty-fve Of the crew of ninety-two
men aboard the British destroyer
Shark were lost is the belief of seven
survivors who were landed al Hull yes
terday by a Danish steamship. These
men were picked up in the North Sea
on Thursday. One Of them has since
died, and two others are badly
wounded.
These men reported they had been
in the water six and one-half hours
and believed themselves to be the only
survivors from their ship. They stated
the Shark acted as a dccoy boat in the
engagement
One Of the survivors Of the Frauen-
lob, a midshipman named Stolzmann,
said he believed he and his companions
landed at the Hook of Holland were the
only men 10 escape. He reported that
his ship was fighting from 6 o'clock in
the evening until l o'clock in the morn
ing. At that time she was struck by a
torpedo and sank. The men on board
jumped into the sea, but only a few OF
them succeeded in reaching RATS.

Two German BattIe-CruiSerS
Were Lost, Is London Belief

According 20 reports received here
the British Admiralty now estimates
that the German losses in the Jutland
battle included two battle-cruisers. One
Of these is set down as certainly lost,
rs Vice-Admiral Beatty reported seeing
the ship sink, while the second was
left behind hopelessly damaged, ana
the British feet on returning found no
trace OF the vessel, and 10 was pre-
sumed that 10 sank.
The loss of two battleships, the
Pommern and the Westfalen. is ad-
mitted by the Germans, while the sink
ing Of four light cruisers is officially
reported BY the Admiralty and the loss
Of six destroyers acknowledged by the
Germans.
A report forwarded from The Hague,

German Fleet Stands Test.

German personnel and material alike
stood the test brilliantly, and the dam
age sustained by the German feet IS
small in comparison with the British
losses.
The battleship Pommern. which was
sunk, was commanded by Captain Boel-
ken.
Berlin is decked with flags, and the
achievement of the German feet has
aroused the greatest enthusiasm. There
was a remarkable demonstration in the
Reichstag when Rear Admiral Hebbing
haus, former naval attache 10 the Ger
man Embassy at Washington, an
nounced the result of the battle.
Admiral Describes Fight.
Berlin newspapers, commenting on
the naval battle Off Jutland. declare
that the German navy longed fervently
for this sea battle for twenty-five
months. Admiral Won Hofe describes
the course of the battle in the follow
ing manner:
"The German high seas feet was
steaming northward with its scouts
pushed forward in all directions when
the British high seas feet appeared
from the direction Of Scotland in full
strength and confident that il was
about to gain the mastery Of the North
Sea. Great Britain's allies had clearly
pointed out the inadequacy Of her
blockade and demanded stronger pres
sure.
Great Britaia,s first step vas to
send out the feet, but, as in the action
Of January. 1915, German skill and
accurate firing stood the test in squad
ron action against the heavy calibre
guns of the British dreadnoughts.
Attempt to Cut OF Germans.
THE German torpedo fotllss first
successfully attacked the British ships
OF line. Several engagements took
place and the British used their superb
ority in an attempt 10 cut of the re-
treat Of the Germans to the south with

high sea feet. with dreadnoughts and
older battleships. battle cruisers and
also light sea forces, including torpedo
boats and submarine fotillas. The
Germans faced the greater part OF the
modern British navy.
The German reconnoItrlng forces
were commanded by Rear Admiral HIP
per. These forces first entered into
combat with the enemy's battle cruisers
and light cruisers at about p. m.
Later the main forces on both sides
took part in the fight. During the day
battle German torpedo boats several
times entered into action successfully,
one Of them three times. The night
kept on until o'clock in the evening
Night Attacks Violent.
During the night both sides made
violent attacks with torpedo boats ana
cruisers. in which there we're further
British losses. The leading German
ship annihilated six modern British de-
stroyers.
"All German reports emphasize the
bravery shown by the British during
the fight, which lasted almost without
interruption for twelve hours.
III. NJ. S. Frauenlob must be definite
" considered lost. Apparently. she
sank during the night in one OF the
smaller engagements. Five German tor
pedo boats have not returned, but
large part of the men have been res
cued
Aircraft Play Big Part.
Although the weather was untaVor-
able for aerial reconnoitring during
all the time of the engagement. naval
airships and aeroplanes contributed
considerably to the success OF the Ger
man sea forces by reconnoitrlng ana
by the speed with which they acted
Battle Divided Into Two Actions.
Detailed reports have not yet been
received. but the main engagement ap-
parently occurred about l25 miles
south-southwest OF the southern eK-
tremity of Norway and 100 miles on
the Danish coast. The battle was cl-
vided into two sections. The day en-
gagement began at about 4 o'clock IN
the afternoon and continued until dark
ness. or about Q o'clock. This was FOL
lowed by a series of separate engage
ments through the night.
The exact ranges and courses OF the
day fight have not been ascertalned'
II is assumed the ranges Of the day en-
gagement were not extreme, possibly
az a distance Of about eight miles, as
the weather was hazy.
The German torpedo boats and de-
stroyers were more effective than tre
British, accounting to considerable
extent for the successes Of the Ger
mans against an overwhelmingly supe-
rior force.
Big Ships Lost During Day.
II is understood the Queen Mary and
the interchangeable were both sunk IN
the day battle. 1t has not been learned
when the Warspite and the other Brit
ish warships went down.
1.-THE loss of the WGrspite IS de-
MED officially By the British.
All the German warships, except
those mentioned in the official report,
reached Wilhelmshaven safely. Thus
far nothing has been reported regard
ing the extent 10 which any of these
vessels was damaged. A fuller report
from Admiral Scheer is expected soon.
IL is stated at the Admiralty that at
least thirty-four British capital ships
were engaged, and that the British tor
pedo fotillss were severely handled
The batteship Westfalen alone sank
six torpedo boats during the night en-
counters.
