Captain of British Trawler
Gives Graphic Description
of Great Naval Battle

Ymuiden, Holland, June 8. - A
graphic description of the great naval
battle off the coast of Jutland was
given to-day by Captain Thomas Punt
of the British trawler John Brown,
which was engaged in taking sound
ings In the vicinity of the fight. Cap
tair Punt said:
THE battle began at AIS p. m. on
Wednesday and lasted until II o'clock
at night. 1t extended over an area
reaching from Longitude 56.S; Lati-
tude 6.25 to Longitude $3.50 to Lati-
tude $50 (these measurements place
the scene of the battle about SO miles
due west of The Horn running north
ward to the Little Fisher bank). .
AT o'clock on Wednesday after
noon | saw a great fleet of fifty ships
of different kinds, apparently German,
cruising from the southeast to the
northeast Two hours later another
great fleet, evidently British appeared
suddenly from the northeast and
obviously attempted to cut off the re-
treat of the Germans. The weather
was misty, making it difficult to dis
tilguish the outlines of the ships.
AT 4:15 p. m. the first gun shot
came from about two miles away.
Fifteen minutes later there were more
shots and in a few moments there was
constant and heavy firing. Many sail
ing ships passed through the firing
line
The British ships did not seem to
be of as heavy tonnage as the Ger
mans. They were reinforced by larger
vessels which I observed to come up as
it was getting darker The German
flee then began to retire and as they
were withdrawing 1 saw two big
columns of smoke, evidently some
vessels which had been badly hit. The
next moment ! observed two large
vessels, one of either fleet, burning.
THE British fleet pursued the Ger
mans to Longitude 56.40 and Latitude
$50 when it noticed two torpedo de-
stroyers and three submarines dash
ipE toward it at full speed. apparently
heralding further reinforcem for
the Germans. The British ships then
drew Off"

Dane Captain Says Sky
Was Filled With Smoke and
Shells Churned Sea White

Copenhagen, June g. The cap
tain of the Danish steamer Naesbog
was 95 miles west of Cape Honstholm
on the Northwest coast of Jutland, a
few small British warships appeared,
pursued by the German fleet Sud
denly the British warships turned
and steamed westward, violently
shelled. In a few minutes a large
number of British dreadnaught
cruisers appeared from the north and
west.
THE British then began attacking
the German ships which were rein
forced by a large number of ships
from the south along the west coast
of Jutland. A violent fight COM
menced. The sky seemed filled with
smoke and the sea was in a state of
uproar. Shells fell around my
steamer although we were sevefal
miles away.
During the fight the cannonading
was so violent that our crew could not
stand on deck. We saw several large
warships sunk but 1 am unable to say
whethe" they were British or Ger
man.
'At last the German fleet withdrew
southwark, pursued by the British
while several more British warships
appeared coming from the westward.
The German fleet was divided into two
parts, one of which escaped. The
fate of the other fleet 1 do not know"

British Fleet Waiting For
Eight German Craft Which
Fled to Danish Waters
BY Associated Press

London, June 3.-There is a report
in circulation. which lacks confirma-
tion that eight German warships took
refuge in Danish waters after the
North Sea battle. 1t is said they were
notified to leave within "a hours and
that the British fleet is waiting for
them.
The German dreadnaught Westfalen
of 1876 tons has been added to the
steadily growing list of vessels sunk in
the great naval engagement off the
Jutland coast, according to wireless
dispatch from Berlin which says the
German Admiralty admits the loss of
this warship.
Additions earlier in the day were
the German cruiser Elbing, displacing
between 1000 and 5000 tons and the
British destroyer Shark. Nearly all
the men who manned the destroyer
were lost. The latest British state
ment regarding the outcome of the en-
gagement shows that the Admiralty
views it as not at all unfavorable to
the British. 1t is declared that they
sought out the Germans, engaged
their entire fleet with inferior forces
and compelled them to put back to
port and give up amy plan of action
they may have contemplated"
Losses Are About Equal
The losses on the British side est-
mated at 5000 may be nearly matched
by those of the Germans if the latest
reports on the number of German
warships lost are confirmed. In the
British casualty list are included Cap
tain Prowse and the entire compile
ment of the battle cruiser Queen Mary.
which probably had between 900 and
$50 men on board. Rear Admiral
Horace Hood was lost with the battle
cruiser Invincible.
Two of the Zeppelins which PLAYED
such an important part in the engage
ment by keeping the Germans in
formed of the British fleets move
ments were destroyed, according to
reports brought in by Danish fisher
men who declare that the entire crew
of one of the airships perished when
their craft was burned.
Wounded men from the engage
ment have begun to arrive in London.
cheered by the crowds assembled to
meet them.
According to one report TODAY Brit
lsh warships are watching off the
Danish coast for the appearance of
eight German warships which are be-
lieVed to have taken refuge in Danish
ports after the North Sea battle, being
given "a hours to leave by the Danish
authorities.

Frauenlob Sunk in Ten
Minutes After Being Hit;
British Far Outnumbered

The Hook, Holland. via London,
June 8, $50 A. NJ. - The tugboat
Thames has arrived here with eight
men of the crew of the German
cruiser Frauenlob, which was sunk
in the naval battle off Jutland. They
say that the warship went to the bot
tom ten minutes after she was struck
Nothing is known of the fate of the re-
mainder of the crew of $50.
One of the survivors of the F'rauen-
lob, a midshipman named Stolzman,
said he believed he and his com
panions who were brought here were
the only men to escape He reported
that his ship was lighting from 6
o'clock in the evening until l o'clock
In the morning. At that time she was
struck by a torpedo and sank. The
men jumped into the sea, but only q
few succeeded in reaching RATS.
other survivors say the British
were hopelessly outnumbered by the
Germans who had their latest dread
naughts In action and thought the
British were easy prey. Suddenly the
British grand feet came up and the
Germans made running fight OF 1t.

MAIN FLEET HIT
CRUISER SQUAD
Small British Force Far Out
numbered; Germans Flee
Before Jellicoe Arrives
By Associated Press


London, Friday, June 2, 11.07 P. M.
delayed in transmission). - Careful
comparison of the British and German
reports of the sea fight off the Danish
coast seem to indicate that Vice
Admiral Sir David Beattys cruiser
squadron came in contact with the
German main fleet. or possibly, in the
first instance, a portion of that force.
Although aware that he was oppos-
ing stronger force than his own, the
oHlclal statements make Ii appear, ma
val observers say that Vice-Admiral
Beatty courageously engaged the Ger
mans. Later, presumably, the whole
German fleet appeared. Vice-Admiral
Beatty was then completely outnum-
bered, and before Admiral Jellicoe's
main fleet was able to get into action
the Germans made off. British naval
experts comment on the apparently
fair and impartial nature of both the
German and British official state
ments. 1t IS believed the German
losses were greater than was admitted
in the official reports, but it is notice.
able that the German communication
confessed to more serious losses than
were given in the British report.
1900 Men Lost
According to estimates made here,
which, in the absence of official figures,
can only be conjectrral, the British
losses in men must be somewhere in
the neighborhood of 5000 It is SINH
larly estimated that the German losses
were at least between 1000 and 5000
men.
No attempt is made here to minimize
the seriousness of the British losses in
ships and men and that, according to
present information, the Germans had
the best of the action. Strong hopes
are entertained. however, that later
reports may minimize the seriousness
of this British naval setback
The greatest regret is felt here over
the loss of the battle cruiser Queen
Mary, which was one of the show ships
of the British navy. She was only
completed at Jarrow in 1918. Her
crew numbered about 1000 men. The
other cruisers were older vessels.

Later Reports ShOw Loss
of Germans to Be Greater;
London Is More Cheerful
By Associated Press

London, June 3.-The British pub
lie, which retired last night cast down
by the first news Of the North Sea
battle as contained In the earlier Brit
ish and German reports, took some
comfort from the later British report
published in the morning papers. This
report, while it did not decrease the
British losses except in destroyers
which were reduced from eleven to
eight, shows the German losses were
much greater than was at first esti-
mated.
According to this latest account OF
the great naval engagement, the Ger
man losses include two battleships
one battle cruiser. one light cruiser
and six destroyers sunk: two battle
cruisers damaged and three battle
ships hit Naval writer's also point
out that the German fleet retired as
soon as the main British fleet appeared
on the scene. so that there is no ques-
ton about the superiority of sea power
remaining in British hands. The loss

WISHED FOR THIS
FIGHT LONG TIME
German Navy Waited Fervent-
ly; Teuton Losses $4,000 Tons;
British $4,000
By Associated Press

Amsterdam, Juno 3. - The Berlin
newspapers, commenting on the naval
battle off Jutland. declare that the
German navy longed fervently for this
sea battle for twenty two months. Ad-
miral Won Hofe describes the battle in
the following manner:
The German high seas fleet was
steaming northward with its scouts
pushed forward in all directions when
the British high seas fleet appeared
from the direction of Scotland in full
strength and confident that it 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 Britain's first step was to
send out the fleet, but, as in the action
of January, 1915, German skill and
accurate firing stood the test in squad
ron action against the heavy caliber
guns of the British dreadnaughts.
Torpedoboats Engaged First
THE German torpedo flotillas
first successfully attacked the British
ships of. line. Several engagements
took place and the British used their
superiority in an attempt to cut off the
retreat of the Germans to the south
with their fastest and strongest armed
CONTINUOUSLY
during the night by sudden dashes OF
their torpedo flotillas. That the Ger
man torpedo defenses worked splen-
didly is shown by the heavy losses in
CURED by the British flotillas."
Captain Won Kuhl letter. writing in
the Lokal Anzeiger, estimates the total
German losses at 5000 tons and the
British losses at 1873, 900 tons, with the
loss in big ships at 5000 tons for the
Germans and 100000 for the British.
Severe Blow to British
Great Britain, since the beginning
of the war" says Captain letter, has
used her old vessels in the distant
theaters of the war and has also lost
number of them. This permits the
conclusion that the home fleet was
composed of only the latest and best
ships. The German sailors have never
underestimated the British fleet, but
have considered 1t the best of all eX-
eept the Germans. To-day we know
that we can accomplish more than the
British and that Great Britain is not
what she believed herself to be-ruler
of the seas"
The Tageblatt comments briefly that
the British losses represent no de-
cisive factor. but severe blow"

This statement was made by Paul
n. Furman, of the Pennsylvania De-
partment of Labor and Industry, who
is here In charge of Brumbaugh head
quarters. Mr.. Furman said that all
details had been perfected for putting
up the Governors name and that this
plan will not be changed under any
conditions.
"The Governor will have at least Al
votes from the Pennsylvania delega-
tion," said he, "and we expect other
votes from outside our State"
Delegates For Knox
If this plan is adhered to, Pennsyl-
vania will have two candidates before
the convention, since the information
comes from reliable sources that the
delegates friendly to Senator Penrose
will cast their votes for Philander c.
Knox. Mr.. KnoX's name will not be
formally put before the convention,
but his friends will vote for him on
the first ballot, and possibly on sew
eraf succeeding ballots, according as
the situation may develop.
1t is understood that the proposition
to vote for Mr.. Knox has not been
submitted to him nor has his consent
been asked. He has no one here in his
interest and has authorized nobody to
act for him. But there are many Re-
publicans who consider him a strong
possibility as a compromise candidate
and his friends in the delegation in
tend seeing to 1t that the convention
has ample opportunity to consider
him.
The caucus of the Pennsylvania
delegation will take place on Tuesday
afternoon, when Senator Penrose will
be chosen chairman of the delegation
and members of the important con-
vention committee will be selected.
The friends of Governor Brumbaugh
concede Penrose's election. sepa-

gates and alternates has been called

SHARPLY CRITICISE
BRITISH EXCUSES
London Newspapers Surprised
at Meager Accounts; See
% Danger From Air
By Associated Press

London, June 3.-The British ad-
miralty account of the Jutland battle
is sharply criticised by the Daily Mail
which says:
The public will be somewhat sur
prised by the lone British report which
purports to give an account of the
battle. After relating our losses it be-
comes curiously vague and contains
what we never were accustomed to see
in British naval reports, namely, ex-
cubes.
rive are told, for example, that the
er4emy's battle fleet, aided by low visi-
,eility, avoided a prolonged action with
our main forces. The fact appears,
however, from this involved and OBJ
scure narrative, that the enemy en-
gagged part of our fleet with his whole
strength and delivered a violent blow
before our battleships were able to
come into action.
How far our lack of airships con-
tributed to this result we are not in
formed. But the world is perfectly
aware that British admirals work un-
der tremendous handicap because
they do not know the movements and
OtSpOSlJlOnS OF Ino enemy, while ne
knows theirs. Our safety at sea may
well be bound up with the solution of
the air problem"
The Daily Graphic's naval expert
says:
1T is quite clear that the main Ger
man fleet was trying to come out and
that our battle cruisers intercepted
them and held them up, and that they
finally we're forced to return to port.
In other words, Admiral Jellicoe's
grand fleet came up after our battle
cruisers had held the enemy and the
enemy retired. The German fleet ad-
mitted it's inability to meet our grand
fleet and is as securely locked up, de-
spite its success as it was before.
There remains, nevertheless, a
black page in our naval history in so
far as loss of splendid ships and splen-
did lives are concerned. 1t is illumin-
ed, however. by glorious fighting
against vastly superior weight of
metal, but the blow remains and 1t is
a desperately heavy one"

Inferior Fleet Engages
Entire German Force
Bv Associated Press

London, June AT the British
Admiralty to-day the following
statement was made to the Asso-
ciated Press:
I'VE went out within enemy wa
ters seeking a fight. Our inferior
fleet engaged the entire German
battle fleet, forced them to return
to harbor and to give up any plan
of action they may have contem-
plated"
1t was added that the latest re-
ports received from Admiral Jelli-
coe and Vice Admiral Beatty had
caused feeling of elation among
naval officers.
