Jappomted commander of the Ger-
man .battie fleet, in succession to

Admiral Scheer is considered
one of the most capable tacticians
‘III the German Navy, and is re‘
iUarded as a man not only of force-
fulness, but also of ideas. He was
for a long time employed as Di-
rector of the General Marine De-
partment at the Admiralty. and

.active service as Chief of Stafi‘ of
,the High Sea Fleet. and as con-
