London, Friday. The British Press Bureau issued the following statement this afternoon: The battleship Formid- able was sunk this morning in the Channel; whether by mine or submarine is as yet uncertain. Seventy one survivors have been picked up by a British light cruiser. It is possible that others may have been rescued by, other vessels. The Formidable was com- missioned at Chat harD on April 4th, 1911, Capt. Philip Nelson-Ward, M.V.O., being appointed to the vessel. She had a crew of about 800. She was the fifth vessel in the British Navy to bear the name, and when commis- sioned was attached to the Atlantic Fleet. She was a I twin screw battleship of 15,000 tons, and was com- pleted in 1901. 1 Her main armament con- sisted of four 12in. -guns, and twelve 6in. guns. I Her speed was 18 knots an hour. I Since the outbreak of the I war she has been attached to the Fifth Battle Squadron of the Second Fleet, to which the ill-fated Bulwark also be- longed. The flagship of the I squadron is H.M.S. Prince of Wales. Enquiries made by the "Leader" this afternoon tend to show that no local men were serving aboard the ill-fa £ ed battleship. Most of the naval men hailing from this district make Devonport their depot. 1

The British flag was hoisted, Before leavTrig the Germans san a I i steamer in harbour, and the Australians are now raising the vessel. The New Possessions. This notable group of Melanesian Islands in the Indian Archipelago, lie directly east of New Guinea, north-west cf the v New Hebrides, and south-east of the Eismarck Archipelago. They have j been hitherto partly English and partly German, the larger islands of the group being German aud the smaller ones] British. I Besllks Bougainville, the enemy has ?hilf] possession of Choiseul, Isabel and hAir ckpendpllcles. The British-owned islands, to the south, consist of Yella- Lavella, New Georgia, Russell, Guadal- canar, Remiel] and San Christoval. Bougainville, after whom the largest island is named, was the re-diseoverer, in 17'?8. of lands already found and named by Mendana just tl)O years earlier. The climate is not healthy; the rain- fall is about five finals greater than that i of England. Several of the islands are of volcanic formation, others are coral. Cannibalism is rife. The trade is chiefly copra and vegetalde ivory. The total area of the thickly-wooded islands is I about 17,000 square miles.

END IN SIGHT | II SERBIAN CROWN PRINCE'S ORDER TO HIS ARMY. POLITICAL LIBERTIES GRANTED. i Nlsh, Wednesday.—The following order f of the d'l, has been addressed to the I Serbian Army by the Comma nder-in- Chierf, the Crown Prince Alexander:- Ii Soldiers! I am proud to announce to you that the territory of the kingeoti-i of Serbia has now been cleared entirely of the enemy, whom we harf driven out, sorely <f: f"d. í i'hi r, wbl-n the vio- j torious Serbia,n flag is again tioa?E.? over J our proud city of Belgrade. I "ish before all to accomplish a dniy of gratitude. In this third war are fighting, shoulder to shoulder with you, our brothers whom we have delivered from the Turks. You are witnesses of their heroism and of their love for the Fatherland. I Proved Themselves Worthy. I The soldiers of Kossovo and of Vardar, of J eg la gov at. z, and of Bregalnitza, of Bitoli and Pooretch (i.e., Kossovo and Macedonia)., have proved themselves worthy of their brothers of Choumadia, and of the Danube, of Podrinie and the Morava, of Tiniok and of Oujitze. I wish to give them a visible proof of this undoubted proof of their great un- selfishness and the magnificent way in which they have carried ouj: their most difficult duty of Serbian citizens. With great enthusiasm I now announce that they will in future enjoy the same political and constitutional rights as Serbia, the liberator, herself enjoys. In its first sitting after the conclusion of peace the Skupstina will take all the necessary steps for the putting into force of this decision. The End in Sight. I Soldiers! Soldiers! The ring of steel of ¡ our puissant allies is pressing round our common enemy more and more closely each day, and, fearful of the grave eonse- quenees that will eusue, he is fighting desperately and obstinately. But all hi? efforts are in vain. The number of hii soldiers is becoming less and less, while onr allies are bringing new armies into the neld of battle. The end of this gigantic struggle can already be seen, although a successful conclusion has not yet been reached.— Reuter.

AERiAL ACTiViTY. j Rotterdam, Wedue-sday.- Fronti r re-! ports to-day tell of resumed activity of the aeroplanes after the great storm, bi- planes being seen near the Dutch frontier flying in a scuth-weerterly direction. Fierce fighting continues on the Yser. and a trainload of 2.00U Germans wounded | near Ypres arrived at Ajx-la-Chapelle yes- terdi-iy. An. Aardenburg correspondent, j relating a conversation with a Gk-rma-n soldier, says that during thQ Ia,t few days the Germans have lost more men on the Yser than at any time during the war in Flanders, and he thought that many more thousands would fall in vain. We have done all that nion and sol- diers can do," he said. "We have attacked day and night, we have hurled ourselves against hell's gates, sometime making pro-: gross, often beaten back, but always defied by the bidden English, well armed, 11"('11 ¡ fed, wdl dotlH"d. Sometimes we tll?ught, we had beaten them; but the silent voices of our dead told us the truth. They had jj fought and dM in vain."

SHOCKING RAil DISASTER. i 0.- EXPRESS CUTS LOCAL TRAIN IN -f wo. TEN KillED AND 20 SERIOUSLY INJURED AT ILFORDL I AGONISING, SCENES. I Ilford was this morning the scene of a terrible railway accident in which ten people were killed, twen y seriously in- jured, and a number of others slightly! injureù, The trains involved were the. 7.6 Gre4.ic Eastern express from CiH< ton-on-Sea to Livprpool-street and the ,W local train i from Romford- The latter was passing on to the mam line west of Ilford, when the express dashed into it., smashing several carriages and overturning one. while the express engine was derailed and thrown down an embankment. Most of the injured wero apparently in the local train. The driver of a third train was able to pull up promptly withiu a yard of the wreckage. Passengers ard soldier guard- ing the line immediately Vtlt in a hand at rescue operations. Among the dead is Mr. George Maylam. of the Chief Traffic Manager's OSice, Great Eastern Railway. The lines were completely blocked, traffic to Ilford having to be temporarily diverted via Woodford. An Awful Stcne. I Dr, Collier, of Manor l'ark, who was r called to the scene oë the accident, stated in an interview with a Press Association representative that the spec- tacle wai too awful tor words, but from what he could gather the Clacton ex- press had rnn clean through the ordi- nary train. After passing through the ordinary traiu. the engine of the Clacton train pitched over the embankment, overturn- ing ypveral of the carriages. Most of the dead were apparently killed by the force, of the im- pact of the large engine !td the ordinary train, and several of iho bodies were found lying underneath the bogey of the engine. The scene was indescribable, and the bodies which were recovered were un- recognisable. The station platforms quickly presented an jwnearsnce remind- ing one of a hospital surgery. Every doctor in the district was called upon. and they did a large amount of work in the open-air by the sia- of the wrecked trains. Breakdown gangs am' also the fire I brigade assisted in extricating the un- fortunate persons piui •" d beneath the wreckage. Drivers Jump Clear. I Another IIford pra(,:hJner. Dr. J. B. Cox, told a Press Association rep1''?senta-¡ tive that when he arri? 'd the local train and the engine appeared to be l'yjn completely on its side. The driver and fireman, he understood, jumped clear in time. and were unhurt. The express traill bad apparently passed through the middle portion of the local train, several ttrst-elass compart- ments being wrecked It was a shocking affair," said Dr. Cox. I have saen things on the pictures, but never anything so terrible as this. Whet) I car o away after at- tending to a number of cases on the lines there werp still two or three bodies be-j neath the derailed e-press engine, and energetic efforts wen being made to! extricate them. As far as I could gather, the nUmb0¡ of dead* was eight, while there was a large number uf Ílljllcd, Wrecked Carriages. The Clacton express usually passes Ilford Station first, but this morning tho j local (rain came first, and. a.6 it was rrossin? dip points, th3 pxpross, coming along at a great spe&.? met it and hit it ?ijong 3t I g!'(,.ii. Met ii-I carriages. I The engine of the cxprens left the raiis. ) and the front part of it fell into a coar siding, burying, it j." said, a man and a cart horse, while two or three carriages of both trains were -vetturned. The accident was nested by nearly a thousand people wlv were waiting for their train to town The station was cleared immediately, and the Pos1 Offi •? ■ was besieged with persons wishing to j despatch telegrams. Another local train, was struck by the falling carriage-. j A Slight Fire. Liverpool-streef Stition presented a re- mark-able appearance shortly after the accident. Usually one of the busiest Clt London stations at this hour, it became deserted, traffic being almost entirely sr.— p ended. Tlie local fire brigade did svime very gocd work the >cene of the disaster. They extinguished a slight fire about the woodwork of the «T> of one of the loco- motives, and then put ofat the fire in the fire-box of the express. The firemen afterwards assisted in rescue work, using the ambuLancc equip- ment on ^nsines. Official Statement. The following othcial statement was issued this afternoon by the Grea t Eastern Railway Company:— At 8.?0 a.m., at liford station, th'? r 4on breakfast train ran into the i side of a local Itomford train, wh\ch was at the time passing from the up local line to the up through line. So far as C'1lJl be at present ascertained, the signals were ?et for the local train, About ten passengers have been killed and 211 seriously injured, while a number of others received minor injuries. Ail of the ofifcers were promptly on the I ground, and their attention was given ji to the injured. Several carriages were seriously damaged, as well as the engine of the Clacton express.

The total numher of prisoners of war interned in Germany, not including civilian prisoners, is 8.11a, £ 77,875 men. The figures do not inchido the number of those taken prisoners in the course of the pursuit in Bus-si an Poland, nor those at present on their way to concentration camps.
