Apparently the British have carvied out another raid on the German submarine base on the Belgian coast similar to the one on April 28, when so much dum?ge was done to the har be r and works at Zcebrugge. T:fl the air raid on Zeebrugge and O.-tcnd on April 28, the light cruiser Vindictive landed British storming parties on the mole at Zeebrugge, the j i . i i i i mractfors ooing consiueraDie ciumagc Ho the mole after stopping German batteries. Commander Alfred Carpenter was promoted to be captain for bravery in action. The Vindicative was damaged severely in the action at Zeebrugge. The Vindicative was built at Chatham in 1897. She displaced 5,750 tons and her complement was 450 men. j The announcement follows: "'Operations designed to close the ports at Ostend and Zecbrugge were successfully completed last night when the obsolete cruiser Vindicative was sunk between the piers and across the entrance to Ostend harbor. "Since the attack on Zeebrugge on April 23, the Vindicative had been filed with concrete and fitted as a bi</ck ship for this purpose. "Our light forces have returned to thfir base with the loss of one motor launch which had been damaged and pvfis sunk by order of the vice admiral tt) prevent it from falling into the hands of the enemy. ^ *'Our casualties were light." i n a nr.li (oecrei uuaiuru. jDoTeT, Ehgland.

GERMAirrTxTiLT INDUSTRY THREATENED Amsterdam. Herr Kraetzig, a Socialist member of the Reichstag, asserted in Wednesday's debate on the appropriations for the imperial economic department that four-fifths of the textile industries of Germany were completely paralized and that the position of the idle textile workers was rapidly growing desperate. He demanded that adequate revision be made of them so as to keep skilled textile workers in readiness for resumption of the industries after the war. At present, he said, they wore being compelled to accept menial employment from the authorities at star! vation wages. Herr Kraetzig also complained that attempts were being made by a small group of capitalists with the knowledge of the government, to monopolize the celluosc industry, which prom ised to be extremely important in the future. He attacked Dr. Karl Helfferich, formerly vice chancellor, Haying he had a mania for creating s.vn) dicates, which was fatal to industries * and calculated especially to ruin the 1 textile industry. o FEMALE MAIL CARRIER.
