THRILLING TALES ARE
 TOLD OF OPERATIONS
 CLEARING THE COAST
German Naval Guns and Land Forces Fought
 Thru Heavy Smoke.

London, Oct. 18,5 (Friday.)- operations on the Belgian coast are described in a thrilling narrative is sued by the Admiralty. There had rome fumor from up the coast that the Germans had removed the heavy batteries with which the coast was armed. but in the afternoon. when reconnaissance was made to the head of West Deep, mile after mile of big guns awoke and blazed at the slowly crawling screen of smoke in which the ships had massed themselves.
 Shells of all calibres. from six to eleven inch, roared out from the coast and plunged into or burst upon the sea and spat leaping mountains of wa ter.
 Only one burst was near enough to a ship to drop fragments aboard her, and between the spouts of smoke. mo- tor launches each dragging a sswell- ing tail of vapor behind it, moved un- hurried. the men leaning from the rails with landing nets, scooping up fish killed by the explosions.
 In the evenin git was the turn of the coastal motor boats, the smallest ofNall. Their function was to pay a visit to Zeebrugge where the old cross channel boat Brussels was re- ported lying and sink her where she lay.
 The boats, working up to speed, swung in a curve that had the point of the mole with the light house and searchlight for it's center and drove in towards the beach at Heyst, just east of Zeebrugge.
 At 700 yards the bulk of the Brus- sells was visible clear enough against the mole in the moonlight with it's two tunnels standing against big store shed.
 The airplanes had ceased flare dropping and were bombing and to this accompaniment the first torped- oes were fired.
 The second torpedoes were then, let go at 400 yards and the boats, bear ing away seaward, heard and saw the bursts of three of them.
 Independent observation by an of- ficer in the leading boat and by tor pedo specialist in the last boat agree that one torpedo hit the target close to the stern.
 No boat was hit and there were no casualties.
