London, Sept." 23.--The sinking of the three British cruisers by five German submarines, in the 'North Sea, occurred at 7.30 o'clock yes terday morning.

Ther daring raid of sublnarines across the North Sea has momentar- ily diverted attention from' the bat- tlefields of the 'continent. This was one of the things which the British navy had been" led to expect, for the Germans have frank. ly avowed that their plan was reduce British naval supremacy by submarine raids and the sowing of mines, and they have been training their young officers for sallies of this kind. Nevertheless, it came as a * shock to Englishmen that big ships. such as these could 80 easily be attacked and destroyed, while the German fleet has been able to remain in sai- ety in its mine and fortress pro- tected harbors However, the British fleet must keep the seas' to insure Lireat Bri- tain's food supply, and in doing so mist run great risks, 'he ships which were while obsolete, still were very use ful vessels, and it is some satisfac tion. to England to know that her cruiser ; fleet, is still double in num- ber that of the Germans, and that, as Winston Spencer Churchill, first lord of the admiralty, has said, Eng land should be abje to build dur ing the war three to---Germany's one to sunk, Sank Two German Submarines, Ymuiden, Holland, Sept. 23 of the five German submarine which attacked and sunk the tish cruisers Aboukir, Cressy Hogue, were sent to the bottom the British' ships, according to survivors of the cruisers rived hers last evening ---------- Two boats Bri and by the who ar Vengeance Demanded. 23. ~ Demands for speedy vengeance op. the German for their exploit - in" sinking three Pritish armoured cruisers are voiced by most of Lhe newspapers to-day It is suggested 'that while England has many times as many submarines as has Germany they have yet failed to demonstrate their worth.

The Hogue was putting over her boats when a tor pedo struck her sguarely amidships, and she likewise went down.
