LONDON, July 17.—A fleet of
seventeen small German vessels ven-
tured forth from Rotterdam in an at-
1 tempt to run the British blockade.
Three of them left Saturday, the
| other fourteen yesterday. A power-
ful British “mosquito” flotilla lay in
wait for them out in the North sea.
This is what happened to the Teuton
ships:
Four runk.
Four captured.
Five stranded.
One wrecked.
Two fled back, badly damaged by-
gunfire.
Total, sixteen.
One fled back and reached shore

It was the first effective blow the
blockade running system in three
years of warfare. It was made pos-
sible by the presence in British wat-
ers of American destroyers, which
enabled the British to detail a large
part of their mosquito craft to watch
the crafty little Teuton smugglers.
The German ships paid no atten-
tion to the "stop” signals of the
