PRESS COMMENTS.
(Received Juno 7th, 0.0 p.m.) LONDON, Juno 6. The "Daily Chronicle" cays that Sir Percy Scott has made too sweeping deductions, but it adjures Mr Churchill to go easy on battleship-building, and not squander millions on unwanted vessels. .
Tho "Daily News" welcomes the breaking of tho ice of imbecility, which cripplos the national finances and entangles foreign nffairs.
The "Pall Mall Gazette" states that thero wan a holocaust during tho last manoeuvres owing to Vioe-Admiral Sii J. R. Jollicoe allowing tho submarines to go a-hunting. The bag was so enormous that the manoeuvres ended abruptly. The flagship was specially attacked., and not an admiral was left afloat. Rear-Adniiral Jellicoo suffered less, owing to.keeping out to sea. and steaming at a high speed day and night.
