GERMANS MAY USE WARSHIPS
CAPTURED FROM RUSSIANS
With Help of AIKes They May
Be Able to Send Fleet
Into Mediterranean
By J. W. T. Mason
(I'nited Press War Expert)
V York, May 20. Possibility that
U nans may attempt to use the
eat. ?o Russian fleet in tho Black gea
to raid shipping in the Mediterranean
is presenting a new naval problem for
the allies in Near Eastern waters.
When the Germans took possession
of Russiau warships in the Black sea
they secured a fleet comprising at least
three fully equipped dreadnaughts, with
three others partly or wholly construct
ed; six old battleships and seven cruis
ers, together with about thirty destroy
,?rs, nine submarines and a fair sized
flotilla of subsidiary craft. Those ves
sels were built at Black sea yards for
pirninr.cnr. use mere, in peace limit
Russia could not send warships throng;,
the Dardanelles and the connecting
TurkUh waters and tKer is no other
entrance into the Black gea.
As au ally of Turkey, however, the
Germans are now at liberty to make
use of Turkish assistance in sending
the Black sea fleet into the Mediterran
ean. The recent attempt of the Ger
mans to run the allies' naval blockade
at the mouth of the Dardanelles with
the Goelvn and th Breslau indicates
that the idea of pressing the captured
Russian vessels into service for a sim
ilar exploit will be certainly considered
at Berlin. If the Russian warships suc
ceed in getting into th.9 Mediterranean

they could do much damage, momentar
ily, by running amuck among mercan
tile shipping, an exploit that would ap
peal to the German love of war time
sensationalism.
But the fleet is not strong enough to
make a sucessful fight against th, al
lies for any length of time. The war
hips would probably try to reach the
Austrian coast or attempt to re-enter
the Dardanelles, and, failing that, wouidj
eventually be sent to the bottom or
would hav? to surrender.
But, the loss of warships would fall
on Russia and not on Germany, and for
this reason, the project will appeal to
German naval officers with the greater
force. Against any such exploit is the
argument that Black sea fleet's use is
wholly to protect th,? South Russian
coast in a war against Turkey. Destruc
tion of the fleet would place Russia
in a helpless position in this respect to
ward the Turks, after the present war
is over. Such a condition would not be
to Germany's advantage, particularly
sice thj Germany policy is to attempt
to exploit Russia commercially through
conciliatory means when peaee-comes.
Another reason for hesitation by the
German admiralty is the strong possi
bility that the Russia fleet's attempt
to emerge from tlw Dardanelles might
be defeated by tli allies. The Goebeit
and the Breslau failed to make their
exit aud if the Germans were concern
ed with a second failure, their already
declining prestige in Turkey would be
badly shaken. Unquestionably, the allies
are strengthening . their dreadnaught
strength at the Dardanelles and are re
