March, chief of Bluff of Ihe American ann. l.t i.M IU.V July IS. the Ucriiinns are believed to be about lo s'.ur'- their great naval dash into the Nona sen. The kaiser's licet which has been bottled up in Ihe Kiel canal anil Ihc Halt ic sea tor three years, now re enforceil by Ihe ships taken from lliissia, is known to be in readinesi- for a supreme test with the Urilisli- Amcncuii Heel. Kxt ruordinury aothity in the Ger man naval bases and (lie recalling of nil to Ihe Herman naval officers t their ships recently, together wi!h an oll'icial telegram which has been spread about (lermaiiy, saying the ad miralty is considering a naval offen sive, lend credence to Ihe belief that the greatest sea ballle of the war is imminent. Itluss Sllls .Mil Huns The adiillion of llussiu's licet is said lo have increased Hermany's sea power by -" pec cent. How many Itusian dreadnoughts and battle cruisers the (tcricuns have sei.cd in the Bailie and 1 lack seas is not known, but tlui Hun., af in control ol all the Kiissjuu shipyards where a number ol drcaoiiaughts were jein: built last year. Naval crilics point oul, however, Ihal oen with the add'tion of the It'ussiuu ships, Ihe (Icriiuiu navy is still vastly weaker, both in ships unc men, ihuii Ihe combined allied Heel now blockading the North st-t. Tin I'rilish grand fleet held the Germans in their hides fruia Ihe lime of the haltle of Julland until America en tered the war. Now it is re-enforced by u ureal Aiiierican fleet which has been estimated to include ."U war ships of all classes and from ilOU.IMMI to -11111,11110 men. rfhe Germans undoubtedly have been building many battle ships since 101 I, bill with their scarcity of labor and material they could not possibly have built as many as have Knglaml and America. Most of Germany's ef forts, loo, have been devoted lo build ing submarines. TlrpIlK Predicts Drive Admiral von : Tirpitz has been iiioled us saying thai us soon us Ihe German armies have pushed Ihe f'rench and British back lo I'aris, Ihc naval offensive would bcirci. It is considered likely, Ihcrotoro, that it will start siiaullaiieoiisly with iu re newal of the drive on Ihe western front, and Ihul ul least will come be fore Ihe end of the summer. A great German defeat on the sea would have serious couseipienccs iu Ihe fiitlicrlnnd, so Ihe kaiser and his admirals have undoubtedly given the mailer their most solemn coiisidcru lion. It has been freely predicted, however. Ihul if Ihe kaiser saw the war going against him on Ihc laud, he would stake evervlliing on a last drive against the British and Anieri-un fleels. The whole (iermuii nnvnl power would be Ihrown inlo an atle'inpl lo break throaeh the allied cordon into the North sea, for the purpose of de stroying as many allied war and merchant ships as possible before the fiiuil crash of Genuanv.
