THE CHANNEL RAID.I
THE CHANNEL RAID. I Our Losses, and Some Enemy Ideas. The Secretary of the Aximi. raJty an- I nounces the following casualties in con- nection with the German naval raid on our crosvChannel transport servieo on Thursday night;— H.M. topedo-boat destroyer Flirt.— Fifty-eight men-missing. H.M. torpedo-boat destroyer Nubian.— Died of wounds, two; missing, believed killed, thirteen; severely wounded, two; I slightlr wounded, three. ENEMY ON THE SCRAP." Amsterdam, Sattixdav.—Commenting on the naval encounter in the Channel the To -U- lanzpi-ger fays:- Before the Skagerak battle the num- her of British light naval forces and out- post vessels was so great that in the com- mercial war nothing remained to us but the torpedoing of enemy or other irfr- chantmen laden with contraband. Since that battle we observe a continually increasing successful activity of our light naval forces without finding enemy resistance. What Britain's ruling of the waves in the Channel and North Sea is worth will, perhaps, be gradually recognised on the other side of the Citannel." The Cologne Gazette," which of course takes the accuracy of the German report as for granted, believes that "this Obtrusive and unpunished visit of German naval forces before their ports in their Channel will have given England a shock. The H Taltung H says: "It is natural that an enemy fleetYen the smallest—^should return to its base," and concludes; The fact remains tha.t Ger- man torpedo forces have made a success- ful dash into the sea which the British more than any other sea regarded as their very own dojiiaiu.Peat-er. AN ADMIRAL'S CRITICISM. I Admiral (retired) W. H. Henderson, in a letter to the Times says:- Since the beginning of the war Ad- miralty communications to the Press for public information have been, and some- times necessarily, of a secretive nature For some time past they have seemed to be lacking in candour, and this is begin* ning to be recognised by the public at large. What is the man in the street" or a neutral to think when he compares the British and Germa n announcements re- garding t.he destroyer action on Thursday night ? They are so much at variance that he can only conclude that neither can be trusted, and that something is being with- held on both sides. I THE GERMAN REPORT, Amsterdam, October 27.—An official telegram issued in Berlin to-day says:— On Thursday night portions of our tor, pedo-boat forces moved from German Bay (Deutsche. Biu-ht) through the Straits ot Dover and Calais to a line from Folke- stone to Boulogne into the English Channel. According to the report of Commander I Michelsen, at least 11 patrol steamers and i two or three destroyers or torpedo-boats were sunk quite near hostile ports. Some members of the crews were saved and captured. Several other guard vessels and at kart two destroyers were heavily damaged by torpedoes and artillery fire., Further, the British mail steamer Queen II was sunk south of Folkestone. The crew ha-d time to leave-the ship. In the Chan- nel, near the Farne lightship there was remarkable activity Oil the part of the hospital ships. Our torpedo-boats returned safely to German waters without having suffered any loss.—Be titer.

THE FIGHTING FOR MONASTIR.
THE FIGHTING FOR MONASTIR. GREAT FRAttGQ-SEBBIAH SUCCESS. I FIERCE BULC/tf OPPOSITION I Salonika, October 18th (received Mon- day).—The Press Association's correspon dent with the Serbian Headquarters tele- graphs as follows:— The operations on the Allied Wt were rec-mmecl yesterday. Bad weather had de- layed operations for some days, and yesterday opened none too favourably. A violent thunderstorm, accompanied by heavy rain, made a fresh postponement I soem likely, as the weather interfered with observations, and made transport difficult. The thunder of the guns, soon after daylight, however, made it cleari that the orders had now been counter- II manded. The first infantry attacks were delivered in the fiercest downpour. When I rcached the top of a hill commanding a magnificent view of the whole iield oi operations the Serbians, oix the right, had already accomplished a considerable ad- vance..it was bareiy possible to makp out the figures in the poor light against tho dark background, but the very lights fired at intervals marked the pro- gress made and served as a guide to tho gunnei-s. Soon after npon the sky cleared in pa tc hes, and streaks of sunshine en- abled the aporations to be seen more elearlv. MOSQUES AND MINARETS. Before us was the loop of the Cerna, with its tributary, the Saknlevo, while] the marshes and plain of Monastir and the town itself, with its background o) white masques and minarets, stood ou-4 i plainly at the foot of Mount. Peristorx the crown of which was already covered with snow. On our right was the Tch-okf rgjige, rock, barren, steep hills, which marked the principal Bulgar positions, and guarded the nearest approach to Prilep and the Babuna. On oiir left wa. the plain of Florina, with Kenati, which had been converted into powerful defen tive works, in the middle distance. By mid-day, the Serbians had advanced from 500 to 600 yards up the rocky slopes on the French right. The operation was on the left bank of the Cerna. On the other bank no attack was made as the wire entanglements there wert not suffi- c-lently destroyed. The bombardment was proceeding all along the line, the French guns making excellent practice. Time and again the- scoivd direct hits inside the enemy trenches. The small enemy salient east of Kensali, with a whole network of trenches, being especially singled out for punishment. The enemy's reply was not very vigorous Nevertheless, one battery of heavy howit- viai-s from somewhere behind the rocky plateau east of Gardilevo gave some trouble. Shells could be seen searching for the French battery in the fold of the hills. ENEMY'S SUPPLY OF AMMUNITION. I The enemy's quiescence, however, was dictated by prudence, not by necessity, be,- cause, later, a storm of -shrapnel and high explosives of various calibres seemed to prove that the enemy was not only rein- forced as regards the number of guns, but that he had accumulated tremendous re- serves of ammunition. The prisoners all fepeak of reinforcements being expected, but that is probably because they were told that reinforcements were coming. But beyond the Germans id ready reported, the only reinforcements received by ,the enemy have been Opolcieri men, the last reserve, whose military value is insignificant. When darkness fell there was no further development, but throughout the night there was incessant rifle fire from the Bulgarian trenches, where apparently a night atta-ck was feared. Day broke bright and clear. Snow had fallen on tlli tops of all the neighbouring bills, but it rapidly disappeared in the ( wanji sunshine. A German seaplane paid an early morning visit and dropped three bombs. It was immediately attacked hy a French machine which arrived on the scene 'with astonishing rapidity and drove off the German, who was forced to alight within the Bulgarian linæ ap- parently- in a damaged condition. During the rept of the day the French airmen had undisputed mastery of the air, some- I times descending almost to within rifle shot of the ground in the performance of ) their obwrsation duties- TORNADO OF SHOT AND SHELL. I The cannonade which oontinued inter- I mitterctly all night was resumed with in- j tensity between Kenali and the Sakulevo salient, east of Kenali. The trenches be- fore the village of Bukri were specially subjected to a tornado of shot and shell. Towards 11 o'clock an infantry attack was launched. I could see the long lines of infantry, in open formation, slowly pro- grossing across the intervening ground, j The blue uniforms were not clearly visible against the grass, nevertheless I was ablo to follow the advance as the scattered Una PMsOO the wire entanglements, which had been practically destroyed, and climbed the slope towards the parapets of the trenches, while the French guns plitve(I Bhrapnel ahead of them, and all the timo the/Bulgarian infantry kept up a rapid fire' of rifles and machine guns, which swelled into a continuous, roll. Sllodenlyj a figure appeared above the parapet at the rear end of the trenches, ciearty outlined against a sandy patch. Another followro. and yet another, until dozens and finally scores of little figures emorged and scat- tered towards the rear. As soon as they were sighted the French gnn-s, especially j a basfcion-like position in the plain, poured a hail of shrapnel into the fugitives. The guns were working as ha rd as they oould go, and sometimes the fugitives were lost in a cloud of smoke and dust. Now a small party would bunch together as indi- viduals swung to the right and left, away from the bursts: then a bunch would be scattered as a shell exploded right among them. The Bulgarian losses at this point must have been very heavy. Finally, the fugitives disappeared inside the trenches further to the rear. The French soldiers gallantry advanced in pursuit, and crossed the sandy patch, but now they encountered the German guns, which had hitherto nor been very active, owing possibly to the fear of shelling their own men. The French thereupon retired into the captured trenches, which they proceeded to consoli- date, although the German heavies now made a target of the salient. An hour later a string of Frcmeh stretcher-bearers sallied forth up the slope, to pick up the wounded. They were apparently out of sight of the enemy batteries, because they were not shelled, but were fired on by the rifles of the Bulgarians in the nearast trenches. Nevertheless, thp.y proceeded cooilv with the work of humanity. I also saw two or three cases of sokFers carrying wounded comrades from the capturrd trenches.

EX-INSPECTOR CHARGED. Ex-Inspector John Syme, for man3- years conne-ct-cd with the Metropolitan Police, was at Bow-street on Saturday re- manded for a week in custody on charges usder the Defence of the Realm, Regula- tions. Mr. Bodkin, who prosecuted, said the proceedings were taken with refer- ence to a Fpeeoh made by defendant in Victoria Park. In the speech, said counsel, Syme tried to show that dependents of the police, who were serving their country, were treated in the most scurvy and abomin. able fashion, and there was, of course, nothing more calculated to prejudice the replenishment of. his Forcee than a statement of that kind.
GLASGOW'S HOOLIGANS.
GLASGOW'S HOOLIGANS. Glasgow magistrates are taking drastic steps to repress the cowardly attacks of organised bands of hooligans who carrv out their lawless practices under cover of night. They enter shops and demand to be sex-vpd witli refreshments under threat of smashing the contents of the premises. They flourish razors and pre- sent revolvers, declaring themselves to belong to the Redskins and Bee- hives." For the most part they are youths bor- dering on military age. who refuse regu- lar work, but undertake odd jobs by changing their abode nightly. Many girls have been terrorised, and in some oases knocked to the ground. Hithm-ti the magistrates have inflicted fine?, but the sheriffs are now imposing seDteneèf of hard labour.
A BOGUS CONFF-SSION. :
A BOGUS CONFF-SSION. There was a remarkable ending on* Saturday afternoon to th charge brought earlier in the week against a singl woman, Edith Thompson, aged 23, of having strangled her baby. She waaf charged on her own confession. The police evidence was that Miøe Thompson had fetched the child. which was 11 months old, on Monday afternoon from the woman who had it at nurse. Later in the day it was found dead in bed. In the evening the girl visited some friends in Wilford and asked them to go patt of the way back with. her to Nottingham, when she told them she had strangled her bpl)v. She afterwards met a constable, to whom she repeated tht story. At the inquest, however, the surgeon found no signe of violence, and said that the child's death was due to a distended stomach acting on a weak heart. A ver- dict of death from natural causes was returned. The. mother's own healtb, it appeared, had been indifferent.
