Some of the passengers still were incoherent today. A short distance from the en trance to the harbor, the Ad miral Graf Spee rode. Far into the night she lay at anchor, potential target of the guns of the cruisers Ajax and Achilles which were scarcely cool from yesterday's battle. Damage Seen. Daylight permitted closer in spection of the Admiral Graf Spee's wounds two large holes in the bridge area, another astern and a fourth at the bow, as well as slighter damage from shellfire along her starboard above the waterline, particular ly in the engine room area. ' The wounded . crewmen re mained aboard, except for two gravely injured seamen who were taken to a military hos pital. The decision on disposition of the dead was yet to be an nounced. A silent, awed throng jam med police lines through the night, craning for a glimpse of the battered ship. Montevideo officials said early this morning no steps had been taken toward internment of the Admiral Graf Spee.- The engagement the greatest naval encounter of the war thus far occurred within the Amer ican neutrality belt and much of it could be seen from the Uruguayan shore. Started Yesterday. The Admiral Graf Spee touched off the battle when she came upon the cruiser Ajax just after dawn yesterday. The British warship was convoying the French merchantman For mosa from Brazil to Uurguay. The German vessel rushed into battle, her heavy guns blazing. The French freighter slipped away to safety. The Ajax returned the German fire with hsr six-inch guns, mo mentarily repulsing the at tacker and at the same time summoning the Achilles and Exeter. Commodore H. H. Harwood of the Exeter was named by the British legation as the vic torious commander. The battle occurred 25 years to the month after the British admiral, Sir Doveton Sturdee caught German Admiral Van Spee's two armored cruisers, three light cruisers and three supply ships off the Falkland islands near the southern tip of Argentina. All but one of the German ships was sent to the bottom. That was en December 8, 1914. and the victory gave Britain undisputed command of main ocean routes for the rest of the World war.
