THE CAILLAUX TRIAL

Paris, April 2

The High Court by 213 voles to 23 rejected the charges of high treason against Caillaux. The Court is now deciding whether the other articles of the indictment have been proved. A telegram from Paris says Caillaux has been found guilty of correspondence with the enemy and is liable to fon years' imprisonment. The Court is deliberating as to the

sentence.

Paris, April

Caillaux, whose conviction last night was carried by 150 votes to $1, was sentenced to three years' imprisonment.

It appears that Caillaux gets three years, reducible by a quarter. He has already been in prison for twenty-seven months and ten days and therefore ought to have been releas ed ten days ago.

Caillane will only serve one math as a certain allowance is made for the time he has been under arrest. He also pays the Court the rests of the trial, which are estimated at fifty re thpasand franes. Caillaux has also been sentenced to five gears restricted freedom, under which the authorities are ordering him to a place of residente, and ten years' deprivation of political rights.

AUSTRIA'S BOUNDARIES.

London. April

In the House of Lords the Austrian and Bulgarian -Treaties Bill passed the third reading.

Winding up the second reading Lord Milner declared that sympathy with the sufferings of the Central peoples almost amounted to injustice to the victors. Respecting the boundaries of the Tyrol he pointed out that the Allied military experts unanimonaly believed that this. border was the best strategically, refating the contention that because Austris had only six to seven millions the Tyrol boundaries were barsiz. He asked who knew that it won'd always be poor little Austria She might become the southern end of Germany, il that was permissible with the consent of the League of Nations. Hence Italy was entitled to the strongest border against the whole Tentonie wate, because Italy had suffred invasions for more than two thousand years. He emphasised that the principle of nationality should be bserved as far as einumstances permitted.

MR. KIPLING ON THE FUTURE.

London, April 1 Mr. Kipling, presiding at a St. George's Day banquet. referring to the effects of the war, said "We and our kin after the treat years are sick, shaken and dizzy, like all convales- cents, bus instinct tells us our cational lite has dowered us with safhalenty of ballast to natigate through whatever storme may be aheal We know England is crippled by the les and wa-taze el a whole generation, has the whole weight of the world lies again. as it used to lie in the days of one fathers, upon two nations, England and France. The aco force which can meet this and tare our late is not tempera ment, not opportunism, not any attempt to do better than good, bus character."

L-BOAT LOSSES, YEAR BY YEAR.

On January 1, 1915, Germany had 26 submarines in service. In the ensuing 12 months 62 new boats were added and 20 were destroyed, the ne: increase for the year being 42 boats. About 748,000 fans gross of British ship- |ping were destroyed.

January 1916, opened with Germany in the passession of 63. submarines actually in service. During the year 93 new` boats were completed, but only 20 were destroyed. The net increase in German E-boats was therefore 70, British shipping desimyed amounted to about 883,600 tons gross. The meagre results of our (anti-submarine measures in that, year allowed Germany to increase bar flotillas by a little orer 100 per cent.. with the result that wa reaped the whirlwind in 1917.

The year 1917 will ever be re- membered as the "Black Year o of the U-bost campaign. Germany commenced this period with 139 completed sub-surface craft. Dur- ing this year 103 new boats were ɓnished, bot under Lord Jellicos's direction our anti- submarine campaign became formidable: 72 U-boats destroyed. Still, the Jear ended with Germany in the

advance. About 3.325,000 tons of British shipping were sunt.

On January 1. 1918, GermBOY |had 169 U-boats in service. Down to the Armistice Day she built and completed 81 extra boats, but in the same period we destroyed ex- actly 81 boats too. Sir Eric Qed- dea was therefore quite correct in announcing, during the last few months of the war, that we had the German submarine campain beld. All the efforts of the Ger- man shipyards failed, te add a single boat to the enemy's fleetin the last 11 months of war. The 1918 toll of our shipping was about 1,786,000 tons gross,

In all, Germany built and com- plated 372 U-boats-23 before thei war, 344 during the war. 203 were destroyed and 159 left at the conclusion of hostilities. 177 boats were SDITendered, but the extra eight were finished after the Arwis tice so that they could make the passage to Harwich for surrender. Finally, 34 incompete U-basta were destroyed on the stocks in |Germany after the Armisties;| -they-nover-look-any-setive-part

THE VIRAL TWELVE MONTHS

Detailed lists have been ex- amined of the German subruazines destroyed in the last six mpaths of the war against the penultimate last six months of the conflict. It is impossible to analyse the results closely, because 35 U-bosts were destroyed by unknown means during these two periods. In the other cases, there are numerous | records of U-boats sinking after being attacked by gunfire, ram and depth charges. IES is impossible to gay which methot of attack inflicted the decisive injury. Depth-charges however, show an enormous pre- ponderance over Alf other successful methods of attack The curiosity of the anti-sub- marine campaign is the destruc tion of UB65. On July 10, 1918, UB65 fired a-torpedo at the U.S. Submarine LZ off the southwest Irish coast. The torpedo travell ed in a circular course, returned to its starting point, and destroy- ed the U-boat from which it had bean fired. ("Information con- cerning the US.
