(TROM THE TIMES CORRESPONDENT.)
Some statistics of the Zeppelins and other airships employed by the German Navy (an distinct from the Army) during the war were published last month in the Marine Runds- ahan. Included is a complete list of naval airships, with the names of their com mandari and watch officers, the date of their being put into service, the number of cruisce and attacks made, their airport stations, and a brief account of their ul timate fate.
From first to last the German Navy bad at its disposal 78 airships. Sit were either air training ships or were used for special purposes, so that 72 took part in actual scouting and operations. The figures show that the average for each Tersol was 16 cruises and three attacks. The maximum number in commission at any one time was 19. The highest number in commission in a single year was 39 in 1917, but the greatest number of cruises and attacks was made in 1916. In that year the 31 airships in commission at various times made 286 cruises and 107 attacks. But it was also the year of the greatest losses. Eight, were des troyed by enemy action, four by storm, and tour by explosion. In the following rear nine were lost by enemy action, and five by storm. The total loss for the whole period of the war 52, made up as follows-De- stroyed by enemy action, 26; destroyed by storm, 14; destroyed by explosion, 12, Be sides these, bowever, 17 other went out öf service for various reasons.
Full particulars are given about the various stations. The double bed at Fuhlsbüttel was hirat down on September 16th, 1916. That at Toodern was burnt out three times and rebuilt. Of the four double sheds at Ahlborn, three were blown up and totally destroyel in the great explosion which took place on January 5th, 1918.
A RECORD OF DISASTER.
Of the 52 airships lost, the crews of 19 were killed, the crews of six taken prisoners, and the crews of three were in- terned. In the case of the other 24 there was no loss of personnel. Nine airships were left in commission when the Armistice was declared, including the two..sekool airships at Nordbelz. One was in course of construction.
Of the six Zeppelins put lito commission in 1914, L3 and L.4 were stranded dur ing the atorm of February 17th, 1915; L.5 was stranded at Dunamünde, in Courland, on August, 6th, 1915, after being hit by enemy fire; L.7 was shot down in flames by the enemy on May 4th, 1916: L.6, the training-ship, exploded, in its hunger on September 19th, 1916; und L.8 was shot down fa action of March 5th, 1915, and stranded at Tirlemont. Twelve..were put into commission in 1915, L.18, com missioned on November 3rd, 1915, caught fire in the bangur at Tondern a forthight later while being infated. L, 9 blew up in the bangar at Fuhlsbüttel on September 19th, 1916, and L. 10 was struck by lightning above Neuwerk Island on September 3rd, 1915. Of the rest, L 12 L.16, and L. 19 were shot down; L. 17 blew up in the explosion at Tonderu; L. 20 I was stranded at Stavanger, in Norway; L11, L. 13, and F. 19 were dismantled, and only L. 14, the training-ship, survived to be banded over at the Armistice.
Of the 1916 ships, L.21, L22, L. 23 (at sea), L. 31, L. 82, L 33 (aver London), L. 34 (over Sunderland), and L. 39 (over Compiègne), were shot down. L. 24 caught fire while entering the hanger at Tondern, and caused the explosion which destroyed L. 17. L. 25 to L.29 were Army ships. L. 30 and L. 37 went out of commission
in 1917, and were handed over to the Allies at the end of the war." 36 and L, 98 were stranded.
The 1917 ships suffered bad losses both from explosions and in action. The great explosion at Ahlborn on January 5th, 1918, accounted for L.48, L.47, L.51, and 1.58, be- sides the Schütte-Lanz, SL20; L. 57, which had been intended for the expedition to Ger- man East Africa, exploded in mid-air on her trial trip on October 7tb, 1917, 14 days after completion. The entire crew perished, and the cause of the disaster was never discover- ed. She was succeeded by £59,-which made the trip, but was recalled when over the Sudan because the Germans had then evacuated German East Africa. This Tessal bombed Naples, und was engaged in an expedition to limb Malts when she game down in flames in the Straits of Otranto for reasons unknown, as she was not then under attack.
