AMERICAN GUNS
WERE READY TO FIRE
[Continued from First Pago.]
quickly took thslr stations In tho
long double lino they hold through
out the day. British battle cruisers
led the way, followed by dread
naughts. Admiral Beatty'* flagship,
the Queen lElieobeth, lod the aquud
ran in one column. The American
warships fell into Hue bohlnd Ad
miral Beatty's craft, balancing a
British squadron similar In power
in the opposito line.
The reiuleavoua was approximate
ly fifty miles distant and the ships
gauged their speed to arrive at the
'• appointed place at 8 o'clock. At 5
o'clock a signal summoned the men
into battle stations and, oxoept for
the officers on the bridges, the ships'
companies were hidden behind bul
warks of steel.
Great Cruisers in Lino
Close behind tho Cardiff came the
first of the German ships, the great
battle cruiser Seydlits. flying the flag
of Commodore Togert. After her
came four others of the same typo,
tho Derfllinger, Von Der Tann, Hin
denburg and Moltke.
Immediately following them were
nine dreadnnuglits, tho Frledrlch
Dor Grosse, flagship of Bear Admi
ral Von Heuter: tha Koenlg Albert,
Kaiser, Kronprinx Wilhelm, Kalser
in, Bnyern, Murkgraf, Prinxregent
l.iii'.poid and the Grosser Kurfuorst.
Three miles astern of tha battlc
phlp3 cama seven light cruisers, the
Karlsruhe, bearing the ensign of
Commodore Harder; the Frankfort,
I'Jinden, Bumberg, Brummer Coin
and Bremen.
Then camo another gap of three
tulles and German destroyers canto
htaaw.ing in tlvo eoUimna abreast.
With ten destroyers to a column.
No Sign of Protect Scott
Six miles separated the Allied col
umns and squarely between thorn
tho Cardiff brought her charges, all
steaming at the stipulated speed of
ten knots. Aa ordered, their guns
wer© in. regular fore and aft posi
tions and, us fur as powerful glasses
could determine there was no sign
to provoke suspicion. Until all the
major ships had been swallowed
up In the enveloping Allied columns
the latter never relaxed their alert
watch.
British Close tn us Guards
When tho lending German ship
bad reached tho western end of tho
l'lanklng columns, tho Allied ships
put about In squadrons. Quickly
re-forintng their lines, they pro
ceeded to escort tho enemy Into the
Flrth of forth. Holding steadily
to Its course, the great fleet reachod
May Island at two o'clock. Tho cap
tive Germans were piloted to
anchorages assigned to them And
B-ltlsh ships from the southern col
umn closed in as guards. The
northern column steamed on the
the regular anchorages higher up
tho Firth.
Inspection parties from the grand
fleet boarded the Germans to make
sure that all conditions of tha
armistice were observed. Tho enemy
vessels will be interned In Scapa
Flow. Part of the crew will remain
for maintenance work and the re
mainder will bo returned to Ger
many soon.
Admirals Receive Visitors
King George, the Prince of Wales,
Admiral Beatty and other members
of the visiting party were received
by Admirals Kodmnn and Sims and
other officers of the fleet. They
passed between long lines of marines
and sailors standing at attention
and went below the Admiral's cabin.
The visit lasted half an hour, dur
ing which formalities were aban
doned.
King George voiced the brotherly
feeling of the two. navies, with a
suggestion that arrangements might
well bo made for joint maneouvres
every yeur by the American and
British fleets. The proposal was
heartily seconded by the American
officers.
Three Cheers For King
As the king entered the royal
barge the order came frojn tho offi
cer on the bridge to the sailor* and
marines "three cheers for the king
of England." Cheers were given
with such a will that they brought
an answering cheer from the men
on the distant ships of the Ameri
can squadron.
Event Minders Traditions
Although the wonderful naval
spectacle was the same as a peace
time review and evoked little en
thusiasm, the haze blotting out the
horizon, American and British offi
cers could scarcely credit the evi
dence of their eyes. It was an event
which shattered all naval traditions
and ideal:..
Men animated by the spirit of
I.awrence's "Don't give up the ship"
and Nelson's- "England expects
every man to do his duty" could not
conceive of such fln inglorious fate
as that to which the great enemy
sea force was submitting. The As
sociated Press correspondent, stand
ing on the deck of an American
dreadnaught, heard an officer ex
claim:
"Even the poor old Spaniards,
knowing they hadn't a chance, came
out of Sanitiago."
Pity For Fallen Giant
But for the most part, both ofiLt
oers and men were silent. They
realized they were witnessing the
climacteric act of Germany's down
fall. They knew that the surrender
of these vessels automatically raised
the United States to second position
among tne world's naval powers,
hut they showed no elation and
seemed to feel a sprt of contemp
tuous pity for the fallen giant of
the sea who had refused to fight.
Their imagination dwelt on the foe's
shame.
The German fleet which sur
rendered cdnsistod of nine battle
ships, five cruisers, seven light
cruisers and fifty destroyers. Sev
en.ty-one-vessels in all. There re
main to be surrendered two battle
ships, which are under repair, and
fifty modern torpedoboat destroyers.
One German destroyer while on
Its way acroai the Iforth Sea with
the other ships of the German high
, sca3 fleet to surrender struck a
mine. It was so badly damaged
that it sank.
I.isl of Surrendered Vessels
The names of the battleships,
battle cruisers and Uglit fcriilsers
which have been surrendered to tho
Allies have not been announced of
ficially. However, a telegram re
ceived tn Amsterdam from Berlin
Sunday gave this list, which Includes
one more battleship than later re

FRIDAY EVENING.
AMERICA'S TRIBUTE TO BRITAIN

BRi TAUICA ? *
An organization of Americans tinder the initiative of the Sulgrave
Institution, in association with the National Committee of Patriotic So.
cieties, National Security League and American Defense. Society, has
planned a special day, December 7, 1918, in which to honor Britain for
her marvelous achievements in tile great world war. This "Britain Day"
poster by the Canadian artist, Cart- on Moorepark, is being circulated
throughout the country. The great British lion is shown guarding
Britannia, about whom cluster th o cubs, representing the colonies.
Aircraft and ships form the background and beside them are alle
gorical figures, the long line of Brit- ish Georges. ,
certain; Dresden, tonnage uncertain,
and Kmden, 5400 tons.
With the surrender completed the
German ships were taken to the
Firt hof Forth. The rendezvous for
the Allied and German sea Torres
was between thirty and forty miles
east of May Island, opposite the
Firth of Forth. The surrendered
vessels will be taken to tlie Scapa
Flow.
The Scapa Flow is in the middle
of the Orkney Islands, off the north
east coast of Scotland. It is • small
ssa, with an area of fifty square
miles. It contains many umall
islands and has numerous good har
bor and roadsteads.
There is good anchorage in the
Scapa Flow for a great number of
large vessels. Before the war it was
the headquarters of the British
home fleet during the naval train
ing season.
The fleet which witnessed the sur
render consisted of some four hun
dred ships, including sixty dread
naughts, fifty light cruisers and
nearly two hundred destroyers. Ad- I
miral ' Beatty was on the Queen
Elizabeth.

HAH.RIBBURG TELEGRAPH
thought we must back the boys un
til they come home.
To-day letters .of appreciation
were' issued to tho various county
organizations by R. J. Stackpole,
chairman of the district, and A. H.
Dinsmore, the acting campaign
director of the district.
Air. Stackpole wrote as follows:
"With the completion of the
united campaign for the various
organizations combined for the big
drive, it is a pleasure to .-acknowl
edge the splendid services of your
self and those associated with you
in the canvass.
"In view of the unusual and ex
traordinary difficulties which besot
the workers from the outset—the
great I.iberty Roan Campaign in ad
vance of our own effort, complicated
with the influenza epidemic and the
peace demonstrations —the results
are more than gratifying and there
is glory enough for all who partici
pated In the drive. It is generally
recognized that no campaign inci
dent. to the war work was ever con
ducted with so many handicaps and
the satisfactory conclusion is a tes
timonial of the energy, intelligence
and patriotism of all who had any
part In it. At this writing I believe
it is reasonable to state that we
shall he nble to report more than
SIOO,OOO over our district quota of
SBOO,OOO. Of course, It will be some
time before all the scattered returns
are received.
"In thus acknowledging tho un
selfish services or yourself and
your associates, let me again assure
you and through you the splendid
staff with which you were sur
rounded, of my personal apprecia
tion of a job well done."
David E. Tracy's letter follows:
"As city chairman, of the United
War Work Campaign 1 wish to ex
tend to the good citizens of Harris
burg my thanks for their magnifi
cent response to the call. As usual
llarrisburg went (her the top. I
am pleased to announce that the
"yellows' were few and *ar be
tween. Tho few are now well
kno.wn.
"The ward and precinct workers
deserve the greatest credit for the
very thorough canvass made of the
city's homes. The returns from the
industrial canvass were very good,
and the same can be said of the
advisory board campaign.
"It will be a great consolation to
those who contributed to the suc
cess of the campaign to feel that
they have in some way rewarded
our boys for their glorious deeds on
tile lleids of battle.
' Appreciation For Workers
The district chairman remarked
to-duy that no city had ever been
more intensively or efficiently organ
ized for any great money-raising
campaign than llarrisburg during
the drive just finished; that Mr.
Tracy, the city chairman, had been
especially fortunate in his immedi
ate associates, who included Vice-
Chairman J. William Bowman, who
designed the block map plan. David
Kaufman and Paul Johnston. The
office was in charge of E. R. Ecken
rode, the secretary of the city com
mittee, and Mercer B. Tate and
Boyd M. Ogelsby looked after the
distribution of literature, posters and
window cards, which was a big un
dertaking.
The billboard in front of .the
Courthouse has been a matter of
great interest to thousands of stran
gers who have studied the plan of
painting the city red as a means of
stimulating giving in every house
hold. Chairman Tracy was more
than enthusiastic to-day in speaking
of all his associates. J
