By Juat what means tfoe British submarines which have been so buiy lately In the Baltio succeeded In running the .sounds and atralts connecting the Bat tle and North Seas ! the eubjeot of much speculation here. Information was at hand to-day In dlcatlng that the undersea cratt have bean entering the Baltic one or two at a time for two or three months, it la believed a considerable fleet la now operating: from some Russian coaat base. Baltic waters were- thoroughly mined by Germany early In the war, and for a year, or a little more, this defense evidently proved oncotlvu, German vessels navigating the sea unmolested, since Itussla's naval strength was Inadequate to r.opo with the Kaiser's fleet In that quarter. The presumption Is that the British secret service baa been working to locate the Oermnn mines and that It finally succeeded so well that the Kngllsh E-boats were able to avoid tbem.

H.-Despatch-es received here lost night tell of the exalting engagement between a British submarine and a German flo tilla, consisting of a cruiser and three destroyers, in whloh the submarine, after a flgbt In wnlch all the artifices of naval war were employed, sank two of the German destroyers and put to flight the warship and tbe other vessel. It was when the German boats were near Faze that they were first sighted by tbe submarine. They were at ouce engaged by the K-19, which boldly ap proached within torpedo rango and began firing. The Germans moved In circles and In that way avoided the attack for some time. All four ships bombarded the submarine heavily and it looked as if the little craft would have to retire from the battle. By a clever manoeuvre the British boat succeeded In getting within rang of one of the destroyers and, as the German turned to rush her adversary, lodged a torpedo on the destroyer. In an Instant there was a terrlflo explosion and tbe German craft disappeared beneath the waves. Remaining in the vicinity of the scene of battle, the E-19 yesterday sighted the German cruiser and threo mora destroyers. The second aotlon was brief and as decisive as tho first battle. Tho British boat attacked without delay, and within a few minute made a successful shot, which struck one of the destroyers amidships. A violent sank almost beiore her crow could make ready to abandon nttr, "LAND DREADNOUGHT" NEW ARMY TERROR Steel Armored Auto, With Guns Mounted in Turrets, Exhibited to Preparedness Advocates.
