Musical work will be an innovation

for its introduction on part Of dormi-

GIVES GERMANS COUNT
IN NORTH SEA BOUT
Naval Writer Says British Ex'
plantations Hide Facts.

Judging from the reports up TO II 80
o'clock last night, Park BENJAMIN, of
New York. a graduate OF the United
States Naval Academy. former editor of
"The Scientific American" and writer
of numerous essays on naval affairs,
said that Germany seemed to have the
better both of the naval battle OF
Skagersk and OF the stories given out
about IL,
"The Germans have admitted straight
losses said Mr.. BENJAMIN, while the
British have evasively thrown blame
upon fog and then praised the bravery
of their men. If the Germans admit the
loss Of the Westfalen. do not believe
that their losses will go beyond that
English reports have argued of their
disadvantage in visibility, but | think
that should be overcome by the fact
that swifter boats must come closer
than usual when there is fog. Then
they have chortled about Admiral Jel-
licoe's travelling about on the day fol
lowing and that the Germans would
not come out Why should they?
THE big question is rather. What
we're the English doing there on the
day previous without sufficient sup
port?' The Germans did exactly the
thing they should have done, when
they were finally outnumbered. They
ran away. The English have persisted
up 10 this time in refusing TO eX-
plain why Admiral Beatty was so far
away from the aid of better ships"
