RESCUE OF TWO LAUNCHES one
OF MOST THRILLING INCIDENTS
OF NAVAL RAID BY THE BRITISH

"One may see clearly through the
MOLE" says the, correspondent, when
looking from a great distance on, the
Dunes. The breach Is near the coast,
showing that the submarine went
quite far. into the harbor notwith-
standing the barricading contrivanc-

lies the wreck of a two-funnelled tor
pedo boat.
MANY German wounded were
transferred to Bruges by boat and
troops must have been great. The en-
tire garrison was called by sirens. The
inhabitants fed to Rams
capelle. The people oould hardly be-

"Half way down the mole were
wire entertainments with machine
guns sweeping the entire width. This
position was captured and a. number
of black eyes told Of hand to hand
fighting having done the trick.
"The crews Of the block ships stay
ed aboard until. the boats had sunk
almost down to the water line. They
then scrambled aboard a motor boat
just in time. for the block ships went
down almost as soon as the mon

"An officer Of the vindictive said
that six big German guns on top Of
the mole were abandoned. The British
landing party then advanced along
the mole which is about a mile long
and eighty yards wide, Some Of tho
officers carried only heavy sticks.
H"The men of the lost British de-
stroyer state when they entered the
harbor they emerged from darkness
into the most dazzling light for all
the enemy search lights were focused
on them. Enemy guns. big and little.
riddled the destroyer from end to end.

CERMAN-.DUTCH
QUESTION SAID
TO Be SERIOUS
Dutch Foreign Minister De
clares Holland is Greatly
Concerned.

The Hague, April 25.-speaking to-
day in the first chamber of The Meth
erlands parliament on the sand and
gravel question with Germany, the
Dutch foreign minister declared he
could not and must not conceal from
the chamber the fact that the ques-
ton was very serious one. He said
he could not say more, about it.
After The Netherlands government
proposed that Dutch military COM
mission go to Belgium to supervise
the uses to which sand and gravel
were put Germany announced that
the time was inopportune because
preparations for the big offensive
were under way.
The German foreign Office. then de-
clared that to save Holland embar-
rassment with Great Britain the Ger
mans would not require the further
transit of sand and gravel through
Dutch. territory but would reserve the
right to require its resumption later.
This demand now has been made.

Dover, England, April 25.-(By the
Associated Press. )LOne Of the most
thrilling incidents of the British naval
raid of zeebrugge last Tuesday was
the rescue by two American built mo-
tor launches of nearly 200 members
Of the crew of two blockships sunk at
the entrance of the Bruges canal. The
feat was accomplished under a heavy
fire and the actual transfer was made
in less than five minutes.
Two of three blockships which pass
ed inside the mole reached their OBJ
jective and swung broadside across
the mouth of the channel. Then, two
motor launches dashed in through
the enemy barrage at express train
speed and drew up alongside.
All the time shells were falling and
causing numerous casualties, but the
crews upheld their traditions for cool
ness. AS the last of these who were
able. reached the launches, two ex-
plosions tore great holes in the. bot
toms Of the block ships. The vessels
settled quickly. At the same moment
the heavily laden launches were DASH
ing seaward and again they passed
through a German barrage to the
waiting British destroyers.
Zone launch delivered % men to the
destroyer. The clock-like precision
essential to the operation made it i'm
possible to evacuate all casualties
from the block ships, but loss ofiper-
sonnel in this feature of the enter
prise was remarkably small.
The casualties on the block ship
sunk at Ostend were still lighter
Twelve men from the crew Of one OF
the ,Ostend block ships got OFF in "a
life boat and rowed fourteen hours
before being rescued. For two hours
of that time they were under q heavy
enemy fire, but they suffered only one
casualty. @
