GERMANS HAVE BUT FEW WARSH|PS LEFT
Two FlotillaS of Torpedo Boats Continue Remaining Destroyers

With the American Forces in Ger many, July 27, Correspondents of the Associated Press )-The Germans have organized two f1otillas of torpedo boats since the arnistice and these constitute virtually all the Warships left in active service in the German navy, according to information re- ceived here.
 One of these fiOtillas is described in Mittschiffs, d German naval periodical which has reached the American headquarters, as the iron torpedo boat fotilla. It consists of 12 torpedo boats, which, the periodical says, have been engaged in maintaining order on the western coast of Germany.
 Some of the vessels of the f1otilla have been used on several occasions for police work in the port of Ham, burg, doing duty guarding allied food shipments to the Czechoslovaks and similar work during periods of disor- der. The f1otilla has it's headquarters at Wilhelmshaven. A landing corps of about 360 men is distributed among the twelve boats, each of which has a platoon of thirty commanded by a n>- val lieutenant. The clothing and ar . of members of this landing corps ;4- . the same as in the infantry.
 The other group of vessels called the Half hotilla, is supposed to be do- ing similar duty on the Baltic coast near the Russian boundary, With headquarters in koenigsberg. The boats are armed with machine guns, and in some cases with 3.7 centlmeter guns as we'll. The f1otilla was organ ized for operation in connection with the East Prussian Freiwillige corps,

BRITTON AND O'DOWD.
Champions of Welterweight and MiddlcwcieIlt Classes Battle Tonight.


 Newark, N. J., Aug. 22.-Either Mike O'Dowd, the worlds middle weight champion, or Jack Britton, welter champion of the world, will be a grievously disappointed man about the time the Newark town clock strikes Il tonight. Michael and John are to have an eight round joust with eight ounce, gloves in the Newark Sportsmen's club before probably s. 900 persons. O'Dowd solemnly de- clares that he will have Britton on the floor considerably in advance of the eighth round, and Britton, with his right hand raised, asseverates that O'Dowd will be sleeping so peacefully about the sixth round he never will hear the referee count ten over him.
 If O'Dowd is stopped, he will lose his title, but if Britton is knocked out he merely loses prestige. An add ed attraction will be the appearance Ca Eddie Fitzsimmo the formidable Yorkville lightweight, in bout with Johnny Summers of Newark.
 All signs point to a record attend ance at the bout. The transportation facilities will be increased for the oc- CaSiOn.
