L, June 21. (U. P.) Ensign Frommann, a young observer aboard the German flagship in the recent naval battle off Skager Rak, today gave the United Press the first eye-witness story of the engagement. "In the morning the German fleet cruised northward from Wilhelms- haven," sail the German ensign. "At 4 in the afternoon our small cruisers reported sighting an English armored cruiser, followed by dreadnaughts. "The Wiesbaden and Frankfort were th first, ships to report they were en gaged. At 6:40 our guns began firing. I observed off to the east four ships of the Queen Elizabeth class. I could see that the English had the best ships in action at that time. Battle TrOnt Sztaaded 100 Miles. "Big shells began whistling around us, bursting In the water. At the be ginning the English marksmanship was poor. The enemy salvos fell 100 yards away. Some fell within 34) feet of us, but our ship was not touched. "Throughout the battle we steamed along at 20 knots in a course parallel to the English, who later turned east ward, so the distance between us de creased continually until we were less than six miles away. While the battle was in progress we cruised over a great part of the North sea, bath fleets con tinually moving at full speed, with th This Actually Devitalizes Coarse Hairy Growths battle front stretched out at least 100 miles. Saw 0-31 Sink. "I saw the G-31 si jilt, it was one of England's latest ships. A salvo of 15 centimeter shells hit simultaneously. Th orew Immediately began to seek the boats and got away. Then we watched the G-31 turn over, her smokestacks dipped, and as she plunged we read the number, G-31, distinctly. About 7 o'clock I saw the smokestack of an other English ship shoot into th air. She was of the Defence class (cruiser Of 14,600 tons), "Th most thrilling Incident oc curred in the night engagement follow ing the day battle. After dark the English dreadnaughts were reported steaming away, so our torpedo-boats were sent into the fight. Z.ast of Black rrlnc. "At 10:18, while steaming southward, our searchlight turned upon an Eng lish armored cruiser quite near. We immediately fired four or five salvos. In two minutes the English vessel was ablaze. Her magazines oaught fire and the sea was lighted tjwlth a ghastly white-green flame. A few seconds later she disappeared. We believed this was the last of the cruiser Black Prince. "None of the German Bailors slept or ate during the battle," the ensign said. "The worst feature, from the sailors' standpoint.," he said, "was that, when the guns opened fire, especially In sal vos, th powder flew Into their eye, making observations of one's surround ings difficult." It was Ensign Frommann' opinion that th English dreadnaughts retired first.
