NEARLY 100 BOATS PARTICIPATE IN LANDING
KERENSKY IMPLORES BALTIC FLEET TO DO ITS DUTY. (Received 10.45 a.m.) PETROGRAD. October 14. The Ministry for Marine learns that eight dreadnoughts, a dozen light cruisers, forty torpedo boats, and thirty mine-sweepers participated in tho German landing on Oesel Island. Experts recognise the seriousness of the move, but do not consider Petrograd immediately menaced. The naval general staff reports that the enemy is in possession of tho norther and eastern parts of Oesel, and has arrived near Arensberg, on the eastern coast of the island. They only carried out a demonstration against Dago. M. Kcrensky sent a message to the Baltic fleet imploring it to do its duty.— (Reuter.)
