NAVY FAST GAINING IN POWER
Kaiser's Sea Strength Likely to be Far Greater by End of
1915 Than Churchill's Estimate Concedes Work

By J. W. T. MASON
NEW YORK, Nov. 30.
Winston Churchill's statement In the
Houso of Commons, that by tho end dt
1315 Great nrltaln will have added 15
capital ships to her fleet nnd Germany
three, requires certain qualifications. In
stead of three, the German number must
be Increased to nlno If dreadnought cruis
ers are counted hh capital ships, as they
alv.nje arc. and If Germany can expedite
work on her nupcrdreadnoughta now on
tho stocks.
It Is probable. In fact, that Germany
has already added five of these first-line
vessels to her fleet. One, tho dreadnought
drulser DerfTlnner, was being com
pleted when war was declared. She Is of
18,000 tons displacement and is larger than
nny vessel In the British fleet. Her heavy
guns, however, are not of record power.
Thero nro eight 12-Inch 60-callbro rifles,
their weight having been sacrificed for a
30-knot speed. It Is probably that the
Dorfflngcr'H sister ship, the Lutzow, which
was to have been finished by next Janu
ary, Is now also ready for service. A
third ship of this class, tho Ersatz

certainly will bo afloat before the end of
1015.

Three German Buperdreadnoughts of

Krlvtsov and five others became sep

Two Qerman soldiers held Krlvtsov, ac-

him to die, but ho revived and crawled

comes thrice In a day sometimes, but It Is
received at least once a day.
This urgent plea can only mean one
thing cholera. The lime Is needed for the
destruction of the bodies of those who
havo died from the scourgo and for the
annihilation of the filth and dirt from
which it has arisen.
In their advance through Gallcla the
Russian troops have passed through the
sections wheru cholera has taken heavy
toll of the Austrian troops. Whether the
scourge has broken out In the Russian
army Is not yet known, but whether It
has or not, the Government Is doing ev
erything possible to stamp out the
scourge and prevent Its spread. Some of
the Austrian prisoners declare that fully
100,000 of their comrades have perished
from cholera. This report, however, may
bo exaggerated.

JOFFRE CONFIDENT
OF FINAL TRIUMPH
OF FRENCH ARMS
Nation, Thrust Into War,
Prepared for Any Sacri
fices, Commander - in -Chief
Tells Correspond
ents. By WILLIAM PHILIP SIMMS
MftAUX Prance. Nov. 90.
General Joffre, commander-in-chief of
tho French army, received me with other
correspondents of neutral countries ap
pointed to make a tour of tho battlo front,
at the city hall today. He made a
special trip from his headquarters for
that purpose and In nn Interview stated
tho cause of Franco for the neutral
countries of the world.
"Franco did not desire this war," the
commander of the French army said.
"It was thrust upon her, but now tho
nation Is prepared for any sacrifices, and
sho will do her duty to the absolute end
until final success crowns her efforts."
General Joffre sold wo had undoubtedly
been ablo tu observe the excellent spirit
of the troops at tho front.
"I liopo you havo been ablo to see nil
that you wlwhed to see of our fighting
forces," he added. Ami then as ho shook
hands with us bidding us good-by, he
repeated:
"This Is n war for humanity and the
final triumph will be ours."
General J oft re Is a man of action and
not of words. Ills departure from his
headquarters to mtct the party of news
paper men is therefore unprecedented.
Tho French commander Is a man of
great personal magnetism. Ho Is of
medium height nnd heavy set. His hair
Is white, ii h Is his large, drooping
mustache. His deep, gray, kindly eyes
look forth from beneath, shaggy eye
brows. With occasional lightning-like flashes,
especially when ho spoko of tho triumph
thnt must como to France, the eyes of
General Joffre recalled those of Mark
Twain tu their kindly depths being stirred
by passing emotions.
General Joffro was clad In un extremely
plain, simple Uniform. Ho wore no dec
orntlons or ribbons denoting honors
which have been accorded him, though ho
Is tho possessor of a Bcore of tho most
Importnnt decorations. His uniform was
a dark blue tunic, with a single row of
gold buttons nnd threo silver stars on tho
sleeve, red riding breeches nnd black
boots.
General Jorfro received us cordially,
with dignity ns befits his quiet manner,
but without the slightest pose. Ho shook
hands with a firm grnsp, looking each
ono squarely In tho eye. Ills gaze be
came extremely penetrntlng as ho talked
directly to ench of his visitors.
At tho conclusion of tho Interview Gen
eral Joffre entered his automobile nnd was
immediately whirled away toward his
headquarters. Throughout tho talk ho
hod conversed In an extremely low tone,
but his voice was full of feeling ns ho
mentioned his troops and the cause of
his country.
