when he stated that the French battle losses, in- cluding killed, wounded, aud captured, totalled 2,60,00 men of whom about 7,300,000 were killed outright.

"France" suffered tremendously in the early retreat to the Marne and later in the defence of Verdun. These and other losses, together with thers suffered as a result of the German drives during

t

rear's sampaign, undoubtedly increased her total casualties considerably. Den

According to the German official coalty list published daily until May 10,916, the Germans had loat up to that date 2,822,079 men. The daily list was then succeeded by a monthly summa“y compiled by the British War Office from German' bulletins, which gave the total Jom up to August 1, 1917, as 4,824,156, Ok wounds, and 355,000 were registered a prisoners...

Id October, 1917, George Ledsbouz, the German Secialist leader, is reported to have stated during a speech in the Reichstag that Germany, during three years of war, bad lost 5,000,000 men, că which 1,500,000 wete dead, Earl Ploib trau, the German military statistician, writing in Das Neue Europa of April 22,

1913, gives the German losses up to

„January 1, 1918 as 4,405,961 men. His âgures deal exclusively with those killed in action or taken prisoner. Using the German figures with caution, together with the Entente estimates of Germany's heavy losses this year, the totals arrived at in the summary may be considered as a fair approximation, but all?

In regard to Austria-Hungary, the great campaigns in the East during the ast four years are to be considered," these having been carried on by largo forces in the open, wide stretches f territory. Lack of means of communi- ention and hospital facilities also bas been a factor in increasing the total,

The Teutonic casualties in Italy have been large. Their latest offensive, Juno- July, 1918, resulted in disaster, with an estimated casualty list of 150,000 men.

Turkey has been a heavy loser war on a wide sweep of front, from Gallipoli through Syila, Arabin, Mesopo tamis, and Armenis. Bulgaris's losses have been comparatively small.
