RUSSIANS OPTIMISTIC Naval Victory Willi Have Far - Reaching Effects. ' German Advancer oxr Petrograd this Been Checked and Possibly Irre- parably Defeated -entire (htin- palgn Hinged on. the l olding- I.3attle Cruiser:', Two Cruisers, 10.0and Tight Torpedo Boats Sunk. LONDON, Aug. 24. -The definite- ness of the official Russian report on the sifting of the German "' battle cruiser Moltke, two other cruisers, and eight torpedo boats late sent a wave of enthusiasm throughout the country and dispelled the depression over the Russian retreat on land. Aside from the lose of the German ships, the naval engagement is re- garded chiefly important for the startegic effect upon the land opera- tions in the German sweep eastward toward Petrograd, which military ob- servers now consider a.s havieg been checked and possibly irreparably de- feated" The German centre , has • pressed forward steadily, until Prince Lee- pold of 13avaria.is near the Russian new lino of defence, but the military observers says that the entire cam- paign hinged on the vast enveloping movement of Field Marshal von Hin- denburg's forces in the north. They had succeeded in pushing far beyond Riga, to Jacomstadt, on the Dvina, but the Itussians' hold on the Gulf of Riga and of the great naval base of Riga was a continual menace in von Hindenburg's rear. It would appear from the Petro- grad despatches that the admiral in tommand of the Russian caval forces in the Gulf of Riga permitted the German fleet to work its way through the narrow entrance to the gulf, when, at his leisure he directed the attack that cost the Germans so dearly. Not cnly, according to Petrograd, did the Russian fleet ,overwhelm the German forces, but, having destroyed the bul- wark of the German battle line, final- ly drove the invaders to flight from the gulf and .into the comparatively open waters of the Bailie. - - But the Russian victory did not end with the defeat of the German naval forces. The invading fleet was accompanied by four.' enormous transports, all crammed with troops. These troops attempted to make a landing on the shore of Pernov Bay, on the north-eastern shoulder of ,the Gulf of Riga. Either the accompany- ing warships were unable to support the landing of the troops or the Rus- sian strategy in some way overcame the advantage of German naval gens, for the troops were permitted to land end were then attackedviand exter- minated by the Russian forces at that point. The Petrograd despatches say that the Russian troops at Pernov did not even have' the- support of artillery. Furthermore, they were taken com- pletely by surprise. - How they ac- complished the utter defeat of a force which must have numbered some 8,Q00 men, aidedby, the gunfire of convoying warships, and later cap- tured the transports as wellis not ex- plained. This account of Russian successes in the' Gulf. of Riga was supplied by the President of the Duma, M. V. Rodzianko, at Petrograd. A despatch to. the -Central News, which is corroborated, by the Times, gives the text of the announcement of the President of the Duma .as 'fol- lows: "In the Riga battle' the Germans lost one super -Dreadnought, the Moltke, three cruisers, and seven tor- pedo boats. "The German .Beet has withdrawn from Riga Ba;-. . - "The Germans tried. to make a descent near Pernpvin (Hernigel, on. the east shore of the Gulf of Riga, some 35 miles north of Riga?) g ) Fou r barges crammed with soldiers took part in the descent. 'They were re- pulsed by the Russian troops without the co-operation of 'artillery, the Ger- mans being exterminated , and the barges captured." - The statement made in the Duma last night by the President of the Chamber, M. Rodzianko, that the German fleet had been defeated at Riga with the loss of the battle cruiser Moltke and : three other cruisers and -seven torpedo boats, elicited unbounded enthusiasm and was aceompanied•"by -touching scenes. The deputies of all factione mutually congratulated one another. The news spread through the city and the people gathered, at the news- paper offices awaiting the handing out of the official bulletin concerning the battle. The people regard the reported victory as the turning of the tide in favor ot'Russia. b The effect of the destruction of a German vessel of the Dreadnought class by a British submarine will, it is expected here, have. a beneApiai poli- - tical result and tend to dissipate the cloud of discontent over the appar- ent inaction of the western allies. Judgment is Suspended. WASI•IIN+GTON, Aug. 24.-Judg- nient still is suspended by the United States Government on the torpedoing of the liner Arabic, with a loss of two American lives. Until official information on which to base the course to be pursued ar- rives there will be no statement of the Government's position, and high officials will not discuss the subject. Both President Wilson and Secretary of State Lansing were silent to -day, the latter "dismissing interviewers' with a negative answer when asked whether anyadditional reports had been received from Ambassador Page. It was understood last night that the all-importantreportbe- fore awaited tedbe - fore the United States determines Whether Germany liar committed a "deliberately unfriendly act" is ex- pected from x-pected.from ambassador Gerard "At eylin.'
