DARINC RAID ATTEIHPTED
BY GERMAN SUBMARINES
IS BY BRITISH
London, Dec. 11.—A dispatch from
Dover says that three German subma
rines, which took part in au attempted I
submarine raid upon Admiralty Harbor
there, have been sunk after a heavy
fusillade b.v the land batteries.
The attempted raid was made under
cover of darkness at 6.30 o'clock yes
terday morning. Six submarines took
part.
The first alarm on shore was given I
by the firing of big naval guns. Soon i
all the land batteries were in action. I
The fusillade lasted for some time and !
at least 200 shots were fired. The dis
patch says that the submarine did no
damage.
Dover is opposite the French town of
Calais and is one of the chief ports of j
communication between England and 1
the continent. The Admiralty Harbor,!
comprising the equivalent of 610 acres,
is the finest harbor of refuge in the j
channel. Its construction was beyuu in j
1898 and completed in 1909 at a cost!
of $17,500,000.
The western limit of the older com-1
mercial harbor aiid the Admiralty Har- j
bor is the Admiralty Pier. The commer-|
cial harbor is bounded on the east by ]
the Prince of Wales Pier, while the east j
arm of the Admiralty Harbor is built'
out from the shore, to the east of Do j
ver i astle. There are numerous forts!
guarding the entrance.
Early in November a German squad-'
ron was reported to have made a raid!
in the English Channel and to have]
bombarded Yarmouth fortifications. Of-,!
ficial sources were silent about this |
raid which had little effect other than
to cause disquiet on the eastern British'
coast.
But on November 11 a German sub- ■
marine entered the Downs and sunk the
gunboat Niger, which was lying off a
pier at Deal, a port on the* Kentish j
coast, eight miles from Dover. The |
Downs are the water lying between the!
coast south of Dover and the Goodwin !
Sands. I
A few days later the Admiralty an- j
nounced that a German submarine had
been sunk by a patrol ship on the north
coast of Scotland. German submarines {
also attacked British merchantmen near
Havre and sank or wrecked two ships, j
GOLD COAST GIVES $700,000 |
TO THE BRITISH WAK CHEST j
Washington, Dec. 11. —Offers of near-;
i lv $700,000 from the legislative council |
of the gold coast, West Africa, toward 1
Great Britain's war expeses were re-1
ported to the British embassy yester !
day from the Foreign Office. The caible- j
gram said:
"Operations in the capture of Togo !
land in destruction of 'the wireless sta- I
tion at Kamina cost aJbout 60,000
pounds sterling.
"The legislative council, gold coasit,
has resolved to meet all expenditure in
curred in this connection as proof of
loyal support and sympathy in rig'hteous
war in which 'British empire is engaged.
Eighty thousand pounds will 'be •con
tributed to His Majesty's government
in 1915 >by gold coast toward expenses
of war.
"The Sultan of Zanzibar has issued
a most loyal address to the Moslem
community of coast region of East
Africa protectorate."
Germany for Holiday Truce
Berlin, Dec. 11.—Immediately Ger
many received the suggestion of Pope
Benedict for a truce among the warring
nations during the Christmas holidays,
an affirmative reply was sent to the)
Vatican. The reply, however, was con-1
ditional on the acquiescence of all the
other belligerents in the Pope's sug
gestion.
Russia to Purchase Wheat Abroad
Bo<me, Dec. 10, 11.39 P. M.—(De
layed in Transmission). —The govern
ment has authorized municipalities to
■purchase wheat abroad. Under normal
conditions ouch purchases are forbid
den. Banks have been authorized to
i make loans to the municipalities for
j this pur|>oße thus relieving the situa-
I tion.
CZAR'S VISIT TO TIFLIS
RELIEVES APPREHENSION
Pfltrograd, via "London, Dec. 11, 5,45
A. I.Vl.—The arrival of the Russian Em
peror at Tiflis and the enthusiastic re
ception he has received in the Caucasus
relieves considerable apprehension
whidi has prevailed regarding that sea
tion of the country. 'His arrival at Tiflis
is chronicled to-day.
The apprehension regarding the
Caucasus was due to the fact that emis
saries of the Turks and the 'Germans
had started a propaganda in that region
promising the Georgians a re-establish
ment of the old Georgian kingdom and
enlisting Mohammedan sympathy for
Turkey. No'body doubted t'he sentiment
of the Armenians and the cultured
I Mohammedans and Georgians, but mduy
| doubted the illiterate Georgians and
' Mohammedans who constitute tliree-
I quarters of the population of the Cau
. casus. The Km; eror's trip and recep-1
| tion have now dispelled all fears.
ALMAC'S MANY CHANGES
AS A RESULT 8F THE WAR
Her'.in. via The Hague and London,
| Dev. 11, 4.10 A. M.—The new edition
, of the Almanac De Gotha has appeared
' am'd presents numerous changes as a
! result of the war. Names in uuimber
! of places appear in small type with the
| simple comment that the peTson has
| fallen in battle and the date and place
! is given.
| A noticeable change is the fact that
• the sovereigns have generally divested
I themselves of the titles and decora
tions conferred by nations with which
they are at war, but Emperor William
i is still c arried as a doctor of Oxford
J and a Knight of the Garter, while
: Prince Henry is given as chief of the
Riu-'Mian Hussar regiment and as a
British admiral. The Russian Emperor
j is no loinger titled as the chief of
Austrian legiments but like King Al
bert of Belgium, is still credited as a
1 knight of the Black Eagle. The King
I of Montenegro is carried as an hon-
I orary commander of an Austrian res
ilient an>d as a Knight of the Black
| Eagle.
DETAILS OF VICTORY CLAIMED
! BY SERVIANS OVER AUSTRIAN'S
London, Dec. 11, 9.10 A. M.—A dis
i pate'h from Nish, Servia, to Reuter 's
I Telegram Company contains a statement
giving additional details of the recent
j overwhelming victory over the Aus-
I trians claimed by the Servians in
| Northwest Servia.
I ''The pursuit of the enemy is pro
ceeding along the whole line," says the
j statement, "especially on our left and
center."
I The statement reviews the fighting
from Derember 3 to 7 inclusive, esti
mates the total prisoners at upwards
of 2,000 and enumerates an immense
and varied assortment of war material
captured, including an entire artillery
depot.
War Names for Cats and Dogs
Paris, Dec. It.—The generation of
cats ami dogs of 1914 iu Krance will
be recognized as long as they live 'by
their war names. "Turco," '"Tommy-
Atkins," "'Goumier," "Ghurka,"

'"Troufion," "Flamand," "Beige"
are among the most popular of the many
names derived from passing events

footed pets.
Christmas Turkeys Scare in London
I London, Dec. 11.—'Most of London'«
Christmas turkeys come in ordinary
times from Servia, Hungary, Russia,
Italy and Southern Prance, and all of
these sources will yield only a fraction
of their usual supply this year. The
shortage is expected to bring a corre
sponding increase in prices.
1,100 Turks Captured
ljondon. Dec. 11.—The Indian Office
reports that about 1,100 Turkish pris
oners, exclusive of wounded, and nine
guns were captured at Kurna, on the
