AMERICAN ENGINEERS
TO IMPROVE ON ZEPPELINS
The first American “Zeppelin,” which the .
navy department is now planning, i* a sub

are in the hail E of American authorities, |
and that the fits: American military dirigi

loy*. These proposed improvements will,
it is said, enable America to surpass the
German Zeppelin both in speed and carrying
power.
The American group of aluminum alloys
known as lynite is today the finest alumi
num produced anywhere. The development
of this alloy has given American manufac
turers a big lead over any other nation. It
is already used extensively in the motors of
leading American automobiles and for many
other parts where, through reduction in
weight, it effects an immense saving. Its
application to airplane motors and to the
American “Zeppelin” is a new departure
now being observed with interest by such
men as Hudson Maxim, Howard Coffin, Ad
miral Pearv and others.
It is said that, owing to this advance
made by American manufacturers in alumi
num construction. Secretary Daniels has
decided not to undertake the construction
of the Zeppelin in the Washington navy
yard, as first contemplated, but will let the
contract to private organizations.

WAR’S CASUALTY LISTS
NOW SAID TO INCLUDE
MORE THAN TEN MILLIONS
A statement recently published at Wash
ington, D. C„ says that more than 10,000,
000 men arc recorded as killed, wounded,
captured or missing in the. European war
in the first Complete tabulation of official
and authenticated semi-official reports of
the various belligerents received there.
Among the military proper, 4,441,200 arc
reported dead, 2,598.500 wounded and
2.045.000 captured and missing. Among
civilians, especially on the Rus-ian and Bal
kan fronts and in Armenia, another 400,000
arc figured as either dead or wounded
through the war.
These figures are admittedly only ap
proximate, and in some instances necessarily
several weeks old. They are not called
exact in any sense, but arc known to be so
nearly so as to give a fairly reliable picture
of the war's results. They depend for their
accuracy, first, on the official reports of
the various belligerents, which arc certainly
minimum figures, and then on a careful re
‘hecking with all available authentic in
formation.
Allies' Losses Double Those of Teutons
The entente's losses are given as 0,.ilS,
400, as against 3,384,800 for the central em
pires. One reason for the great discrep
ancy between the two is believed to be the
relative unpreparedness of the entente and
the disastrous retreats in France at the be
ginning of the war, in Russia from the
Mazurian lakes and the Carpathians and in
Roumania.
The entente's dead total 2,890.400,
against 1,550,800 for the central empires;
the. entente’s wounded total 1,676,500.
against 922,000 for their enemies, and their
captured and missing 1,652,000, against
912.000 for the central empires. These
losses are based upon the assumption that
in Germany 90 per cent of the total wounded
return to the front and SO per cent in all
other countries.
Russia's Great Losses
Russia is infinitely the heaviest loser so
far, with a grand total of 3,084,200 men.
The bulk of these losses occurred in the
Mazurian lakes disaster and the two retreats
from the Carpathians, when prisoners were
taken by the tens of thousands. Moreover,
lack of communications and hospital facili
ties has made the death rate in Russia ex
traordinarily high. Their dead total 1,500,
000, their wounded 7S4.200, and their pris
oners and missing 800.000. which is said to
be much lower than the probable number.
French Losses
France has suffered the second highest
casualties, with a total of 1.810.800, largely
because of the early retreat of the Marne
and the terrific losses in the battle i f \ er
dun. ller dead total 870,000, her wounded
540.800, and her missing and captured
400.000, though this last figure is believed
to be high.
Britain's Losses Comparatively Low
Great Britain’s total falls far below, be
ing about one third of France’s and one
sixth of Russia’s, owing, of course, to her
late sending of a continental army. From
now on. however, her losses are expected
to keep fairiv close to those of the French,
who have seriously felt the drain on man
power. Great Britain's total comes to
515,400, with 205.400 dead, 102,500
wounded and 107,500 captured and missing.
Roumania Suffers Severely
Roumania, though entering the war only
last summer, has lost half a million men
through her fata! attempt to cross into
Transylvania when the central power? were
outflanking her through the Dobrudja. Her
dead are given xs 100.000, her wounded as
150.000, and her captured and missing about
250.000,
Italian Losses Are Small
Italy has been saved from extreme cas
ualties through the impossibility of open
operati ins on her mountainous frontiers.
Her total reaches 209,000, including 105,000
dead, 49,000 wounded, and 55,000 captured
and missing.
Serbia and Belgium Lose Heavily
Belgium and Serbia, the two small states
overrun by the German machine, after des
perate resistance, have both lost very heav
iiy in proportion to population. Belgium’s
casualties come to 112,000, with 50,000
deed, 22,000 wounded and 40,000 captured
and missing. Serbia’s dead total 60,000.
her wounded 28,000, a total of 88,000, with
the number of missing and captured large.,
but unknown.
Germany Loses Less than France
Germany, among the central empires, is
given as by far the largest loser, her total
casualties being 1,585,200. or 225,000 less
than those of Franc.e Her dead come to
893.000, which is slightly higher than
France’s, while her wounded are set at
450.000, and her captured and missing at
245.000, proportionately the lowest of the
nations. Germany, because of her fighting
on interior lines, without having suffered a
bloody retreat, and with a highly efficient
medical service, has lost very few in cap
tured argl wounded, but her offensives have
led her into heavy losses indeed. Nearly
one-third of her losses are estimated to
have been suffered around Verdun.
Austria Loses Many Prisoners
Austria is only slightly less heavy a loser
than Germany, with 1,469,000. Her dead,
however, only number 523,100. and her
wounded 355,000. Her captured and miss
ing run up to 451,000, owing to the heavy
losses of prisoners in the two retreats be
fore the Russians. Turkey also has been a
heavy loser, having a wide sweep of front
from Gallipoli through Syria, Arabia, Meso
potamia and Armenia, with serious pressure
from British, Russian and Indian armies.
Her total is given as 307,000, with 127,000
dead, 110,000 wounded and 70,000 captured
and missing.
Insignificant Losses of Bulgaria
Bulgaria is the smallest loser, with a
meager total of 20,500. largely because the
Serbian campaign was won merely by the
threat of her entrance into the war. Her
dead total 7,500, her wounded 7,000, and
her captured and missing 6,000.

NEWS NOTES OF GREAT WAR
New Type of Submarine Chaser
A new type of submarine chaser is now
being put in shape for the navy test, says
a Cireenport, Long Island, dispatch. It is
a small wooden torpedo boat, with a speed
of 44 knots, equipped with one tube for
ward and a four-pound gun aft, and will
operate from either a cruiser or merchant
man “mother ship." The firm making this
boat has built thirty-six U-boat chasers for
Russia, and the new craft is an adaptation
of these. This is the craft that Senator
Stone referred to in his filibuster against
the armed neutrality bill
Ice Explodes German Paines
Drift ice is playing havoc with the
German mine fields in hte sound, says a
Stockholm dispatch. Tremendous explo
sions are audible hourly, and shipping men
believe that relaying of the entire mine
held will be necessary as soon as the waters
are clear of ice.
War Bonus for Sailors
Crews of American line steamships are
willing to accept a “war bonus” of 5U per
cent wage increase offered by P. A. S.
Franklin, head of the International Mer
cantile Marine Company, it was announced
recently by Gustave A. Braun, secretary of
ihe Atlantic district of the International
Seamen’s Union. The men had demanded
75 per cent Besides the wage bonus, it
was stated that the proposition guaranteed
the seamen insurance of personal effects,
provision for their families and dependents,
and return to New 5 ork.
Sarrail Will Marry a Nurse
The impending marriage of General Sar
rail. commander of the allied forces in Mace
donia, to Mile, de Joannis has been officially
announced at Salonica, according to an
Athens dispatch. Mile, de Joannis is a
member of the French nursing staff with
General Sarrail’s army. General Maurice
Paul Emmanuel Sarrail is 01 years old, and
has distinguished himself in several cam
paigns.
Commissions for Enlisted Men
Secretary of War Baker has directed that
between 5.000 and 0,000 enlisted men of the
United States army be designated by regi
mental commanders for commissions as com
pany officers in whatever army may be
raised. Orders have been sent to each regi
ment to select sixty men who will be eligi
ble for commissions up to and including
■apt aims.
Dissension Among German Leaders
A Swiss war correspondent who recently i
ret tinted from Germany reports that serious
dissen.-ions have broken out among the 'ut j
m; o army leaders. The i orresj one* mt
claims that th" majority of the Gc-men
:>( rerals do not share the faith of the ua ,
tii-ii in Field Marshal Von Hindenberg. j
General Von Falkenhayn, Field Marshal
Von Mackensen and Crown Prince Ruprect t ,
of Bavaria are said to be dissatisfied with 1
he plans of Von Hindenberg and the gen- .
era! war situation. The chief of the gen
end staff, however, still ha? the full con
fidence cf the emperor, and it is not likely
that he will leave bis post in the near future
unless he suffers a disastrous defeat.
Get-many's ex-Convicts Are a Problem
What to do with the ex-convicts who, j
when sentenced, lost their rights to citizen- |
ship, and therefore may not belong to the
rriny and fight for the fatherland, is a
problem that is occupying public attention
la Germany to an increasing degree, accord
ing to a Berlin dispatch. It is estimated j
that there are in the empire at least 100,000 J
able-bodied men of military age now at lib- ]
rrty after having served prison sentences, j
whose work for the government in the ag- !
gregrte would bp of tremendous value if a
way could In- found to utilize it. Vet they
cannot be sent to the front in regiments |
composed of men who have never been i
guilty of criminal acts, because the soldiers |
would riot tolerate their presence. Nor
is it feasil.de to form special companies, as j
has occasionally been suggested, for particu-1
larlv hazardous duty. Such duty is re- j
garbed by the average soldier a? a special ,
honor which he would be loath to surren- j
der to men branded by imprisonment. Nor j
is it felt that it would be safe to intrust
important posts to tnen in whom implicit
confidence cannot be placed. The latest
and apparently most welcome suggestion
is that the ex-convicts, and even convicts j
now serving terms, should be formed into '
special working bodies and put at some
kind of labor for the military authorities,
whether at the front or at home.
