Afrrh Flame or Di pate Throughout England. LON'DOX Since the withdrawal of the British naval censorship controversy haa raged in England over the conduct of her admiral during the war. partic ularly in connection with the battle of Jutland. A school of writers, of whom A. H. Pollen is the chief, have not hesitated to assert that the tactics employed by iHnini Jeliiroa in that action were rhmrtirinri bv hesitation and Inde onion and that this robbed Britain of a hil victorv which miit lit have shortened the war by a couple of years. This ia no doubt an extreme statement of the case, since it is difficult to see that any victor-, even if it had Involved the complete destruction of the Ger man high seas fleet, could have ren dered the submarine Ineffective or have removed the mine fields and fortifica tions of Helgoland and so rendered the Herman coast vulnerable to a landing. .Nevertheless this opinion Is held in cer tain circles, and it is believed that it Influenced Lloyd George when he re .moved Jellicoe from the admiralty and left him without employment during the last year o the war. Navy liri far Jelllrae. In the navy, on the other hand, it is believed that Jellico has been treated lladly. Almost without exception every naval officer will tell you that he re- Hards Jellicoe as an ideal sailor. Beatty is considered by sailors generally to be a born fighter and a lucky man. but it n thought that Jelllcoe's opinion on any question of naval operations would be worth far more than Realty's. The general opinion of a whole profession Is seldom wrong, but nevertheless it seems strange that if Jellicoe possessed such supreme eminence in his profes sion he should have failed to achieve a complete naval victory. The sailor j.. vs. "You do not realize the difficul ties and disadvantages under which he labored." but still the civilian doubts. l.'nder these circumstances the fact that Lord Jellicoe has produced not indeed an apologia but a statement of his case, has provoked great interest. and his book. "The Grand Fleet." though it costs I, and is mainly concerned with technical details has had a tre mendous sale. It has told the British public many things of which they were ignorant. They have learned -from its putces that at the beginning of the war H -itain was short of docks and of dc Mroyer. that the harbors used by her fleets were undefended against de stroyer or submarine attack, and that her armour piercing shell was vastly Inferior to that of the enemy. The most valuable thing in the book Is. however, the revelation that It gives of its au thor's mind. I.rmn Fleet Feared. It Is clearly the work of a pains taking ma nthoroughly conversant with his business and deeply Interested in the training of his ship and men. But above all it Is evident that the writer was obessed by the thought of the en emy and what the enemy might do. He m for Instance: "I had formed a very high estimate of the efficiency of the German fleet. ... In material the Germans were ahead of us and the personnel, though lacking the Initiative and resource of the British was highly disciplined and well educated and trained. . . . The branch of the German navy from which I expected very good work avas the destroyer service. . . . Finally. I knew how efficient was the gunuerv and torpedo work of the high sea fleet." The same kind of thing, say- local students of history, could be found in the writings of McClellan during the American civil war. General McClellan had almost all the qualities of a great soldier: his technical equipment was iidmirable, he secured the respect and iiffection of those who served under bun and he proved himself to Lincoln's saM.-faction the bejt man to train troops that the American civil war brought fnrth. but all his great qualities land in the eyes of Kurnpean critics they were great were nullified by the fact that he allnwmt himself to become obessed by the strength and power (al most Invariably exaggerated) of his ent emy. The general who underrates the foe man-he traight to diater. but the general who 1 alway thinking of what the enemy is going to do to him usually fails to achieve complete success. m his own showing Iord Jellicoe seems to have been subject ta this re proach. Ths man wrote: "I have often wondered why the Germans did not make greater efforts to reduce our Mrength by destroyer or submarine attacks on our bases in the early days. ... I can only imagine that the Ger mans credited us wth posise.ssing har bor defences and obstructions which were, in our case, non-existent. It may have seemed impossible to the German mind that we should place our fleet in a position where it was open to de stroyer or submarine attack (p. 31). might have realized, and .his habit of mind more adveuturous, that as the Germans had failed to realize his troubles, so he might disregard theirs. These undoubtedly existed, t'ne of them was fuel; the coal obtained from Ger man mines proved much inferior to Welsh steam coal, and the German ships found it difficult to make their sched uled speed. It Is believed too that the o:l burning destroyers had fuel trouble which reduced their steaming' powers to a material degree. Nor should the fact have been overltoked that the German U'stmyers. whose superiority in nunir bcrs Ird Jellicoe emphasizes, were for the most part designed for short dashes to sea and had neither the fuel nor the water capacity (though they carried more torpedoes) of British vessels of the same class. The most essential possessions of a great general or admiral is a power to focus, and to weigh the relative im portance of all the factors of a situa tion. For lack of this power both Jel li.oe and Mtt'lellan. though both ren dered great and splendid services to tneir respective countries allowed thei xori-es mat tney commanded to be rob bed of the initiative and thereby lost the laurel crown that Is the meed of the complete conqueror. i J-zi i -vy if!

Mrs. Heinrlch had been in til health for several months and recently had undergone an operation for a throat ailment at a Brooklyn hospital. Te- cauve of this he and Mrs. He.nric'i closed their home at R McDonouph street, Brooklyn, more than a week aco, and opened Ihelr summer cottage here in advance of the u.ual time. Seemingly in the best of spirits. Mr. Heinrich- told his wife he was goinc for a short walk. Not more than half an hour later he appeared at the home of Mrs. Charles Nostrand. half a mile from the ileinrich cottage, and made inquiry as to the location of udders lake. Mrs. Nostrand. although herself in a highly-nervous state as the resvlt of the death of her husband a few days previously, noticed that Mr. Heinrich acted peculiarly. She had supposed he was a friend coming to offer his sym pathy when the door bell r.'Ar, but her curiosity was aroused wnen the nipi a.ked for Scudders pond, which hr-1 been renamed Little worth lake several years ago. She pointed out the road to him and stood,, watching Mr. Heinrich until he disappeared out of sight. Mrs. Kthlyn, Nelson, who owns part of the lake shore formerly the property of Supreme Court Justice Townsend Scudder of Brooklyn, saw Mr. Heinrich start to wade into tne lake. She ran down to the edge of her lawn and called to him to "get off" her property He paid no attention to the calls and continued to wade out until he was waist deep. Then Mr. Heinrich placed a bottle to his lips, drained its con tents and plunged head forward into the water. Running down to the edge of the lake, Mrs. Nelson, who is an experi enced swimmer, get on to a raft and attempted to wade herself out to where Mr. Heinrtch's body was partly ubmerged. Failing to reach him she hurried back into the house and noti fied the police by telephone. Policemen Wittenberg and Burns and Coroner Kdward J. Ieay arrived at the lake five minutes later and took Mr. Heinrich s body out of the water. lr. K. T. Braynard was summoned and pronounced the man dead. The physi cian said the fluii "". Heinrich drank undoubtedly was poison, as his lips were discolored. Mrs. Heinrich became prostrated when informed of he rhusband's death.
