attacked by a large British squadron.
The action opened at short range, and
early in the fight the bridge of one
German destroyer, V-69, was swept
away by direct hit, the commander
and two other officers being killed.
The VEG fired one torpedo, and was
then hit by another British shell,
which knocked the funnel flat on the

in the fore part of the vessel. Her
guns appear not to have been dam

LONDON THINKS WILSON SPEECH
iLL-TiMED INTERFERENCE
SOME PRAISE.
NO DIRECT REPLY MADE
WIDE DISCUSSION OF THE MAT.
TER BY ALL WORLD POWERS
PROVES INTERESTING.

Western Newspaper Union News Service.
London - President Wilson's ad-
dress to the United States Senate has
furnished the British government and
public with a surprise as electrifying
as his mediatory note to the belliger-
ents. With the exception of the Man
chester Guardian and the Daily News,
which are the only papers in Great
Britain that can be classified as paci-
ficatory in policy, the press gives the
Presidents utterances an unfriendly
reception and engages in much specu.
lation over the meaning which, it Is
considered, may be concealed behind
certain passages.
Public men interviewed begin with
courteous tributes to the President 8
good intentions and end by supporting
Great Britain's' measures. While the
government cannot make any direct
reply to communication from the
President to the United States Senate,
there is certain to be discussions in
Parliament. The usages of the House
Of Lords give even greater latitude for
addresses on any topic any member
wishes to discuss than the American
Senate, while the question paper Of
the House of Commons furnishes an
equally good opportunity for the ad.
vancement of personal views.
