attacked by 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 a direct hit, the commander
and two other officers being killed.
The V-69 fired one torpedo. and was
then hit by another British shell,
which knocked the funnel flat on the
deck Still another shell put hole
in the fore part of the vessel. Her
guns appear not to have been dam
ged. The crew of the V-69 numbered
about sixty. 1t would appear from

other German vessels were sunk. The
VEG belonged to the home fleet. The

pitals on Saturday twenty-one per
sons died. and there were 112 pa
tients receiving treatment, the week
ly adds. In addition. 265 persons suf-
fering from lighter injuries were
treated. There is no evidence that
the explosion was other thah the re-
suit of a fire, such as that to which
any factory is subject The central

series of explosions suddenly trans
formed the works into a fiery furn-
ace, and great masses of burning
liquid and timber and red hot iron
were hurled high in the air.
Mingled with the deafening crash
of beams and girders were cries from
the working people. An .adjoinins
flour mill, in which women and girls
were employed. was engulfed.
An official announcement in regard
TO the explosion was given out:
THE explosion appears to have in
volved practically all the explosives
in the factory. which was itself com
pletly destroyed. Fires were caused
in neighboring warehouses and fac
tories, one of the largest of which was
an important flour mill. The explo-
sion was felt for great distance
Three rows of small houses in the
Immediate neighborhood were practi-
cally' demolished and considerable
damage was occasioned to other prop
erty"
What was yesterday a busy subur-
ban borough" says the Press Associa-
tion, 'looks today as though 1t had
been bombarded by mighty fleet of
Zeppelins."
The Woolwich arsenal is situated
on the south bank of the Thames, ami
even before the war was considered
one of the most imposing establish
ments in existence for the manufac-
ture of materials of war.
The arsenal proper covers an area
of about 1886 acres, but a consider
able territory around the central
plant has been dotted with number
less workshops.
II is understood that $1,000 male
and female workers are employed in
the arsenal proper while the factories
in the neighborhood employ an add.-
tional 10000 hands, mostly women.
1t appears probable from the Off
cial statement in regard to the dis
aster, particularly the reference to the
flour mill nearby. that the explosion
did not occur on the grounds of the
old Woolwich arsenal proper, al
though the factory destroyed may
have been one of those established in
the vicinity.
Friday nights explosion was not
only heard within radius of many
miles from the zone, including Lon
don and suburban towns. but shook
buildings and broke windows long
distance away.
Ten persons were killed and twen-
ty injured by an explosion in muni-
