The vote on the rejection of the

Chairman Dent of the military com
mittee said he had not changed his
mind regarding the credit plan, but
since President Wilson, Secretary

CASUALTIES ARE LIGHT
Old Cruiser VIndctive Filled With
Concrete and Sunk Across Harbor
Entrarce-British Loss Is One
Small Motor Boat.

London, May 11.-British naval
forces again raided the German naval
base at Ostend on the Belgian coast,
blockading the entrance to the harbOr
by sinking the old cruiser Vindictive
which participated in the recent raid
on Zeebrugge, 1t is officially an
nounced.
The Ostend-zeebrugge operation
designed to close the ports, was COM
pleted last night" the admiralty de-
clared.
The obsolete cruiser Vindictive
was sunk between the piers across the
entrance TO Ostend harbor.
Since the attack on Zeebrugge
April %, the Vindictive has been filled
with concrete.
Our forces returned to their base
with loss of one motor launch. 1t was
damaged and was then sunk to pre-
vent 1t falling into the enemy's hands.
Our casualties were light"
The precious raid, which was carried
out early in the morning OF April 90,
was conducted simultaneously against
Ostend and Zeebrugge. The latter
port is believed TO have been com.
pletely blocked through the sinking OF
two concrete-1lled cruisers in the
channels.
Frustrated by High Wind.
The raid on Ostend, however, was
frustrated when high wind dispelled
the smoke screen protecting British
ships and permitted the German shore
batteries to sink the blockade ships
before they gained their objective.
One British destroyer, two motor
boats and two launches were lost al
Zeebrugge and the casualties were ex'
ceedingly heavy In this last attack
only one motor boat was sunk, the ad
miralty said, and the British casualties
were light.
Ostend is located on the North sea
eight miles east OF West End, where
the battle lines touch the coast. 1t Is
81 miles from Dover and 115 miles
from London.
The channel is about 800 feet wide
and 1,500 feet long. At the point
where it joins the canal there ore sew
eral roomy basins on each side. The
town, which has a population Of about
$4,000, lies on the west side Of the
canal.
