THE GERMAN FLEET.
£ DRAMATIC PENALTY,. LIKELY TO BE INFLICTED, By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. Received July 2, 7.30 p.m. London, June 28. Mr. Murdoch, writing from Paris, says the Council of Three is unanimous that punishment must bo inflicted on Germany for sinking the fleet and burning the 1870 war flags. It is not believed that monetary compensation is feasible, as Germany's future financial resources are already abundantly ear-marked. The Council will seek a dramatic penalty likely to impress 1 the German mind. The French Minister for Marine states that France is requesting compensation in the form of warships or moii/y with Which to build ships. The newspaper Le Temps demands that Oerniany be compelled to pay the value of the destroyed warships, the Allies dividing the money in the same proportion as they would have divided the Warships.—United Service.
