Shells Fired by Black Sea Fleet Fail | With Exactitude—Czar’s Aviators Drop Bombs on Batteries With Suc- cess—Hostile Ship Blown Up. Petrograd via IL.ondon, March 2¢ 9:15 a. m.—Severe losses have been inflicted upon the German naval units in the Baltic sea by the Russians, ac- cording to a semi-official review of the operations there made public last night. German submarines are said to have suffered considerably, while a number of transports loaded with sup- plies have been destroyed. The state- | ment follows: Submarines Suffer Considerably. “Yarly in September the activity of our fleet in the southern Baltic com- pelled the enemy to modify his plam and concentrate his chief efforts upon opecrations by submarines. Nineteen of these attacks were made in two months but only one was successtul. Enemy submarines suffered conside: ably. “Our fleet has developed intense activity along the enemy’s coast. De- ails of the operations cannot be pub- lished yet, but the enemy suffered heavy losses in fighting units and has been seriously impeded in the oper- ations along his own coasts~by the lo of a number of transports w. munitions.” Bosphorus Forts Bombarded. Petrograd, via London, March 2 6:22 a. m.—An official statement sued last night by the general s s ‘he Black sea fleet on Sunda bombarded the outside forts and bat- | teries on the Bosphorus on both sides of the straits. “According to observations made from ships and hydro-aeroplanes our shel fell with exactitud aviators flying above the B batteries carricd out reconn and dropped bombs with succe: heavy artillery fire was directed the aviators without success. Torpedo Boats Driven Back. “The enemy’s torpedo boats which tried to come out were driven back into the strait by the fire of our guns “A large hostile ship which ng to get into the Bosphorus from bombarded by us. She finally heeled over and blew up.” Russian Fleet Reinforced. London, March 29, 1 D mi— was | the heen telegraphs that fleet in the Baltic has reinforced by the addition of modern fighting units. This addition to the flect is be- lieved in London to consist of four dreadnoughts laid down in Russian vards in 1909, which were nearing completion at the beginning of the W It may also include another division of, four capital ships _laid down in 1912. British naval experts said they would not be surprised to fearn that, with the assistance of the allies in material and men, Russia had been able to complete these eight dreadnoughts. The first four mounted twelve 12-inch guns each. The se- cond division is armed with nine 14-inchers each. Russian PRIZES AWARDED AT SWEDISH FAIR P.

Enough Troops at Brownsville. ‘War department officials feel that American forces already at Browns- | ville, Tex., are ample to protect that | town during the fighting between the | | Mexican factions at Matamoros, across | the Rio Grande. At Brownsville Colonel Blocksom has a squadron of the Third Cavalry, a machine gun platoon, and battery D of the Sixth Field Artillery. Nearby, up the river, are two squadrons of the Twelfth Cavalry. Additdonal troops could be sent by train from am Houston at San Antonio, Fort Meclntosh, at Laredo, Acting Secretary Breckinridge said today that Colonel Blocksom in | warning the Mexicans not to fire into American territory, acted under in- structions of long standing. He said that under no circumstances would the fire be returned without direct in- structions from Washington. Col- onel Blocksom's order to stop the bringing of wounded Mexicans into Texas territory was also under a gen- eral. instruction forbidding the ad- mission of refugees frem battle except where humanity demands it.

O’Conner, had been ordered to El Paso to take charge there of the relief work along the border.
