Is the official press bureau's state

which they shelled Hartlepool,
Whitby and Scarborough.
Stay A boat Hoar.
"A number of their fastest ships were
employed for this purpose and they re

"They were engaged by patrol " vessels

trolling squadron endeavored to cut
them off. On being sighted by the Brit
ish vessels the Germans retired at full
speed and, favored by the mist, made
their' escape.
"The losses on both sides are small, but
foil reports have not yet been received.
No Military Man If leance.
. "The admiralty takes the opportunity
of pointing out that demonstrations of
this character against unfortified towns
or commercial ports, though not difficult
to accomplish, provided a certain amount
of risk is accepted, are devoid of military
significance.
"They may cauee some loss of life
among the civil population, and damag
to private property, which Is much to be
regretted; but they must not In any cir
cumstance be allowed to modify the gen
eral naval policy which is being pur
sued." Elahter.a Killed.
LONDON, Dec. W. A dispatch from
St-arhnrough, passed by the London cen

at Scarborough today by the bombard

four persons were killed outright and in
another house three were knlod by burst

The local station of the coast guard
waa blown to pieces by shells.
Communion was being celebrated in Bt

During a storm off the north roast of

by waves and exploded about twenty

During the night the steamer ran Into a
heavy storm and many of the passengers
were awakened hy the tossing of the
ship. A few minutes after 4 o'clock In
the morning a terrific explosion caused
the ship to tremble from bow to stern.
The passengers rushed on -dark.
Officers told the paasengers that noth

heard was a thunderclap. Then the pas
sengers found the space that had been
torn out of the deck railing and one of
them picked up a fragment of the mine
that had caused the damage.
Among the paasengers was ilr Charles

The Day'
War News
Tbe long expected Oerman at
tack on England waa made today,
and for the flrat time In the his
tory of the United Kingdom hos
tile warships bombarded English
towns. Scarborough, Hartlepool.
Redcar and Whitby, on the chore
of tbe North Sea, were shelled by
German warships. The extent of
the damage inflicted waa not re
vealed In the early reports.
Although the raid on England
overshadowed all other develop
ments for the time being, there
are important occurrences In other
quarters. The . French official
statement aays that some further
progress baa been made by the
allies In Belgium, that Oerman
attacks in Alsace and the Woevre
district had been repulsed and
that British warships have again
bombarded German- positions - on
the coast of Belgium.

slaa observers here, constitutes an effort
to drive a wedge book to Bocharsew,
thirty miles west of Warsaw, with the
idea of cutting railroad communication
between Lodi and Warsaw. - This move
ment has been met by a strongly rein
forced Russian column' which during the
last several days has been alowly forcing
the Germans back in the vicinity of
Soohacsew. Here the fighting has been
severe, each, side making repeated at
tacks and counter attacks.
Warsaw Life Normal.
Little apprehension of the outcome of
the fighting in the immediate vicinity is
evident in Warsaw, where business
houses are open and the streets thronged
as usual. The Infrequent flights of Ger
man aeroplanes on bomb-dropping expe
ditions continue, but the people of War
saw apparently are becoming accus
tomed to such visitations which, wtth
one or two exceptions, have resulted In
little damage or loss of life. A total of
twenty-six bombs have been dropped on
the city of Warsaw. The most serious
results followed the falling of such a
missile in a crowded tenement district,
where eight people are reported to have
been killed and several wounded.
In the north of Poland the Germans
appear to have directed their aerial ef
forts to the destruction of railroad ter
minals, where a number of their bombs
have fallen.

Not a single Austrian, a statement by

King Peter of Servia he re
