The communique's text follows:
"A detachment of the grand fleet, op

carried out a bombing attack on the
Zeppelin sheds at Tondern In Schleswlg

Were dispatched from the vessels.
' "In the first flight, which was made
early in the morning, all the machines
-reached their objective and nade direct
hits on a large double shed,' which was
completely destroyed, the conflagration
rising 1000 feet in the air. A second
flight followed the' first, all of our ma
chines but one reaching their objec
tive." Following the dropping of bombs,
fires were observed.
Four of the British machines failed to
return. ' Three of these, were believed
to have been compelled to make a land
