GERMAN PREPARATIONS REPORTED

VICTORY
(REDTER'S TEIB6IUH.)
WASHINGTON, 11th Juno.
.Official despatches from Switzerland state that Germany is preparing a big naval offensive. Orders have been given to keep the whole fleet in readiness, and officers of high rank have been hurriedly recalled from Switzerland. The Hamburger Post publishes an interview with Yon Tirpitz, who said: "Germany is in a position to measure herself with the British Fleet. After our land forces push the French and British back to the other side of Paris it will be the Kaiser's turn to drive the British off the seas."
