An official statement Issued Saturday by the British admiralty says tho channel leading out of the Inner hurbor bus been completely blocked by the hulk of the old cruiser "vindictive, which wus maneuvered Into position under heavy lire and then sunk by i,ombs. It 1 iHiiuted out that the obstruc tion In the channel at Ostend will tend to eventually close the hurbor through the action of the tides and the rapid silting up. If Osteud and Zeebrugge are re moved as porta from which the German may be operated, the Germans apparently will be compelled to withdraw their Bubmerslbles to their home ports. In this connection It Is Interesting to note that a week ugo It was announced that the greatest mine field known to naval oiera-tio- n had been planted lu the North sea to combat the submarine.

He refuted the charges of General Maurice and de clared that statements ninde In his re cent tpeen, to which Maurice's charges referred, were made on Infor mation received from General Maurice's department of the war office. He showed also by documentary evi dence that the extension of the British line was made because of pressure exerted by France, and that the decision was taken on the advice of the military authorities.
