The Admiralty tonight issued a denial of fantastic rumours which have been in circulation for the last few days respecting the loss of various capital ships, in particular, the Hood, Renown, and the Repulse. “The rumours are lying and baseless,” it said. “Equally absurd are the rumours that the Bremen has been captured.” A message from New York published yesterday stated that reports had been received from London that the German liner Bremen, escorted by a naval vessel, had reached a British port.
