LONDON, Sept. 4 [Associated Press). —Reference to the SEVEN DAMAGED SHIPS AT KIEL INDICATE NEW NAVAL FlGhi LONDON, Sept. 4 (3.55 P. M.)—The ofifcial information bureau has issued a statement saying: | ccording to information derived trom a trustworthy source, seven German destroyers and torpedo boats have arrived at Kiel in a damaged condition, and it is understood that others have been sunk in the vicinity of the Kiel Canal.” (The only naval engagement hitherto reported occurred a week ago off the Helgoland Bight, when two German cruisers were sunk, one was burned and two destroyers were sunk, It is pre- sumed to-day’s reports indicate another fight, evidently in the Baltic, since Kiel is on the Baltic end of the Kiel Canal, while Helgoland is in the North Sea, on the opposite side of the canal Of course, if the damaged ships were in a fight off Helgoland they might have reached Kiel through the canal, but it is belleved they were damaged In an gement in the Baltic, probably by Russian destroyers or crul »} tay atin me 4 } | cee ematene romero | via Sayville, L.

KAISER: ON BATTLEFIELD D Wik 750,000 OF HIS TROOPS titanic struggle between the German army under Crown Prince Frederick William and the forces of France which took place between Rheims and Verdun Wednesday is made again to-day from Berlin. If the Berlin statement proves correct—that three- quarters of a million German troops were fighting in that region Wednesday in the ‘greatest battle of history’’—~it would explain much of what has been happening in the western field. To bring in troops to anything like the number of 750,000, enormous French forces must have been concentrated at the expense of the French left flank, where the Germans have been making progress with their brilliant dash on Par’s, The battle along the Rheims-Verdun line has been claimed, in an earlier message from Berlin, as a victory for the army of the Crown Prince. The Crown Prince is reported to have had the assistance of Emperor William, who was present. GERMAN REPORT ON THE ALLIES. BERLIN, Sept. 4 (By wireless to the Associated Press, I.|--Berlin is permanently decked with flags. Confidence prevails that notRing can stay the victorious advance of the western armies, Major Moraht, the military expert of the Tageblatt, expects that the armies of Duke Albrecht and the Crown Prince will soon reach Chalons and Verdun, which can be easily masked without delaying the advance. These towns have lost their stragetic importance. Toul and Epinal [capital of the Department of Vosges] may delay the armies of Prince Rupprecht and Gen. von Heeringen, but this is unimportant. Raids in Upper Alsace are to be expected while Belfort is in the hands of the French, but this is without significance so far as the general result is concerned, The Lokal Anzeiger points out that the taking by the Germans of La Fere and Laon almost without a blow means the capture of a position on the lines where the population ) Bs
