GEAMANY GELEBRATES
NOTABLE FEAT OF NAVY
- The Times suggests that the
British were overconfident in
their naval strength. ‘
' The naval correspondent of
the Post explains the outcome
of the battle -in this fashion:
“German heavy metal got British
rght metal at close range and gave
it severe punishment. The fight must
‘have been at close range, and the
German battleships, well protected by
their heavy Krupp armor, outmatched
our cruisers in a fight for which they
were not suited,
- Engaged German Main Guard.
* “Our smdvance guard, in fact, en
gaged the German maln guard, and
the result could not have been other
wise than serious for the lighter ves
sels. But when our main force came

in position for the engagement the
Germans had to flee and were driven‘
into port. ‘
“There is one thing, however, which
we have the right to demand in the
face of our losses. There must be no
more trifiing with the powers of osur
fleet.”
That the German fleet was badly
scattered in its flight is indicated by
the news coming from Copenhagen. It
was stated in the dispatehes that the
German fleet was compelled to sep
arate when the more powerful units
of the RBritish flet got within range,
and some of them are still believed to
be at sea. The possibility was sug
gested that elements of the British
fleet have cut off the escape of some
of the Germass ships,

PARIS, June 3%-Throughout the
night the Germans continued to
launch assaults of the most ferocious
intensity against the French position
at Fort Vaux, the key position to the
citadel on the northeast side.
The attacks were all repulsed in
‘bloody fighting, the War Office stated
‘in an official communique issued at
‘noon, but at one point the Teutons

} For more than 36 bours the Crown
Prince has been . hurling his troops
against the French positions north
east of Verdun. The carnage has been
frikhtful. The Germahs were sent for
ward in wave after wave, and perish
ed in heaps under the fire of the
I'rench artillery and machine guns.
Trenches Are Shelled.
| In the meantime, during the Ilull
in the infantry fighting west as the
Meuse, the 6Germans again turned
their attention to their artillery. The
French positions at Hill No. 304 were
bombarded with great violence. The

Counsel for Defense Says Pris
oner Will Rely on the State’s
“
Weak Case.”
Continued From Page 1.
duced a number of letters written by
the Inneses.
Innes to Take Stand.
It generally was expected that the
defense would introduce no testimony,
but would close with the statement of
Vietor Innes. Judge Hines Friday
night convérsed over the long-distance
telephone with C, G. MecGranie, of
Jacksonville, Fla, who declared he
saw the missing Nelms girls in the
far Northwest last year, and that they
requested him not to say anything
about he incident, but there seemed
little likelihood that he would be
broyght here as a witness.
In the event the defense should
present no evidence further than the
statement of Innes, it was regarded
by Judge Hlill as certain that the
trial would close by Saturday night,
probably early in the afternoon. He
Is anxious to get through with the
trial Saturday, {n order that the jury
will not have to be kept locked up
over Sunday.
Mrs. Innes will not be tried imme
diately at the close of the triul of In
nes, it became known Saturday. Judge
Hill said it probably would be sev
éral weeks before her case is called,
for the reason that the attorneys are
tired out with the present week’s
grind. No plans have been made for
her trial.
The introduction Friday afterngon
of the Innes letters proved an impor
tant feature of the trial. This was
the first time these letters, which had
been obtained by private detectives in
tite Northwest, had been brought to
light. Several letters, on objection
by the defense, were excluded on the
ground that they weré lirrelevant.
Letter From Innes.
One of the letters put before the
Jury was an unsigned sheet, found by
Mrs. J. W. Nelms in the effects of
lhe W Ol'ld S Best Battle-
The value of the battle-cruiser is crisply summed up by one editor in the statement
that *‘no floating thing that can whip her can catch her, and nothing that she can whip
can escape her.” ‘‘England’s greatest naval losses in the present war have been in the
dreadnought or battleship class, while the battle-cruiser fleets are intact,”’ according to
the Syracuse Post Standard. Yet the United States Navy possesses not one of these ships!
This explains, perhaps, why all other features of the remarkable naval program are
eclipsed in popular interest by the provision immediately authorizing five monsters
of this battle-cruiser type that will outsteam and possibly outshoot any enemy now afloat.
In THE LITERARY DIGEST for June 3d, there is a complete description of this
new ship, showing the experiences of other nations with it and the opinions of naval
experts about it. This article is illustrated with a fine picture of the proposed new naval
fighters and a map of American waters showing how these battle-cruisers could guard our
coasts. The full force of American public opinion from all angles is shown in this article.
Other features of uncommon interest are:
Efficiency and German Babies

New York Evening Mail, Claims That Fewer Babies Died in Berlin During the Last Quarter
of 1915 Than in Any Other Three Months in Many Years.

Mrs. Dennis in the Smyrna home. The
handwriting was identifled as that of
Victor Innes. In this letter Mrs. Den
nis was cautioned “not to take any
drifts or checks that would. have to
be cashed in banks in other cities, but
to get everything in bills.” She was
told “not to let even B. know this,
but to do what A. told you.”
Solicitor Dorsey explained that A.
referred to “Auntie,” Mrs. Innes.
Several letters were addressed to
Paul Harbaugh, Mrs. Innes’ son, in
Portland, Oreg., indicating he was in
need of mgney and that his mother
was trying to help him.
One, written from San Antonio,
Texas, in June, before the Nelms
girls were supposed to have arrived
there, said:
“Dad is planning to help you just as
soon as possible. You see, he is in
Government service work, and draws
his pay only once every three
months. ‘ ‘1
Warned Not to Tell. |
“But don't tell anyone he's in Gov
ernment work, for the newspapers
will be after hfm to give them details
of the Mexican trouble. Just as loonl
as we get money we'll send you all
we can.”
Another from San Antonio read:
“This is no pipe dream—l'm going
to have things as long as there is
money to get them with. Fool, send
me the balance of your indebtedness.
I thought we had sent you enough to
close it up.” .
Still another from San Antonio in
dicated that the Inneses were con
templating buying a place in Salt
Lake City, and inquired of “Paul”
how he would like to move there with
them. lln this letter Mrs. Innes also
gpoke of a present she had sent him,
which the State contended was a dia
mond ring belonging to Mrs. Dennis.
Asked for Atlanta.
Other letters were written to the
son and aiso to Itfln M. M. Cava
naugh in Portland, in August, 1914,
after the disapeparance of the Nelms
girls had become known and while
Innes and his wife were living on a
ranch at aWterville, Oreg. In these
letters the son and also Miss Cava
naugh were admonished to keep the
whereabouts of the Inneses secret.
“Just say that we are out camping,”
wrote Mrs. Innes.
In another letter she requested her
son to buy all of the Atlanta papers
he could find at the newsstands in
Portland and send them to her in
Waterville by parcel post.
