Berlin Paper Estimates
Daily Cost to the
Enemies.
FORTY MILLION A DAY
Actual Cost to Europe in
One Year Will Be
10 Billion.

THE HAGUE, Jan 29.-An cx-
haustive study of the cost Of the Eu-
ropean war has just appeared in the
Berlin Norwaerts a Socialist paper.
The military expenditures OF the
British empire are given as about
$i,250,000 per day or S637, 500 900 up
10 January /. The cost Of the war to
France up to December 10, 1914 Is
given as S1,288, 100000, or, difference
in time considered, more than twice
The amount spent by Great Britain.
Taking the Russian expenditures to
November 10 as a basis, it Is shown
that the Russian campaign has 80 far
cost $9,2OO,000 per day, or 1880
100000 up to January |. The eX-
pendtures OF the Belgian, SeTylan
and Japanese governments are given
as about $l,6O0,0O0 per day, or
roundly $24O,OO0,O00 up to January /.
The figures also show that 1t costs
the Allies S205 per day to keep a
man in the field
The following is given by The Nor-
waerts as a table OF expenditures
made by the governments OF the
triple entente and their allies:
War Cost Total to
England .s4,25O, goo 5 $4,000, 900
- - C
Russia 90. 100000 l,3SO,OOO,O 900
Allies .... 100000 100000, 900
No detailed amounts are given in
relation to tho cost OF war to Ger
many and Austro- Hungary. The
statement is made, however, that the
cost for the two is S21, 100000 per
day or s3,150,000 up to January /.
Adding to expenditures of all the
nations at war, the daily total is
about S45,962, 900, and the total up TO
January /. $6,S94, 100000.
It is pointed out by The Vorwaerts
that from the French total eXpendi-
lures so far made must be taken the
following loans: To Belgium $50
600, 900; to Seryia $16,000,000, to
Greece $4000,000, and to Monte
negro 100000, or a total Of $40, l00,-
600, which would make the amount
spent by the French government in
military operations $1,416,70O,0 900 by
the close OF 1914.
For year the European war
would on this basis, cost the tre-
mendouS sum of $l6,676, 1870, 900.
Making an allowance for the cost Of
mobilization but keeping in mind
that the sending OF new troops into
the field is in effect lesser phase
Of mobilization, it will still be found
that at the end of year the powers
at war would have spent at least
S16.500, 100000.
In this sum are not included the
economic losses OF the countries, nor
the damage done to property in the
various military terrains. The loss to
Belgium from the destruction of
property is estimate at S133,00O, 600,
while the damages sustained by East
Prussia are said to be roundly $685.
100000 No reliable estimates on the
property losses In Poland, Galicia,
Slavonia, Servia Bosnia, Alsace and
eastern France, have so far been OBJ

POOR FUND SHORT,
 CLEARY DISAPPEARS Accounts Of HaVeTstraW Clerk, Freed

Albany,> N. Y., April s.-Accounts of the town of Haverstraw, N. Y., in relation to funds handled by William V. Cleary, the former town clerk, who recently was acquitted of the charges of murdering his son-in-law, Eugene M. Newman, are badly tangled, ac- cording to report made public at the state comptroller's office last night. Cleary is said to have disappeared.
 Investigators working under Comp troller Travis told him yesterday that much of the poor fund, which was dispensed partly by Cleary, could not be accounted for. Many books, records and checkbooks which would aid in strainghtening out the financial affairs of the town have disappeared, it is reported.

 The genius of Francis Hopkinson Smith manifested itself in many branches of activity. His reputation as an artist was second only to his fame as an author, while as a prac- tical engineer he won high standing. Sixteen years after his birth in Balti- more in 1888 he left school and went to work, first as a shipping clerk and afterwards in a metal industry Sub sequently he studied mechanical en- gfneering, and permanent results of his work in this line of endeavor came in the construction of sea walls at Tompkinsville, Staten Island, Gov ernor's Island in New York harbor; Race Rock lighthouse near New Lon- don, Conn, and the foundation for the Statue or Liberty in New York harbor.
 Mr. Smiths artistic bent developed early and he became the producer Of numerous successful paintings and other art work, many O. which won recognition at art expositions.

 Basley was overseer of the poor from 1910 to 1918. while Cleary was clerk. It was Basleys custom, he said, to sign blank checks and permit Cleary to draw poor moneys as he desired. According to Basley's tes- timony and available records, about 5000 more was drawn from this fund from 1910 to 1913 than was spent for the aid of the needy. In many cases Basley's books showed one amount paid out, his report to the country superintendent another and his bank account a third. Basley could not explain these discrepancies.

known that several of the big eastern
colleges made strong attempts to land
him.
When Mike Doolan of the Phillies
jumped to the Federal league In the
winter Of 1913. and the Phillies were
sOrely pressed for good shortstOp
last season, the club attempted to sign
up Berry and went SO. far In its bid as
to promise him regular berth from
the start. However. Berrys parents
had planned college career for him
and refused to allow him to play base.

May outshlne 0orizas.
Berry worked out with the Phillies
many times during last season and the
preceding one and made big hit with
Charlie Doom, then manager OF the
team. Frequently he practiced field.
ing with the team before the start of
the games and during the intermission
on dOuble-header days. his work never
failing to draw comment from the
fans.
He Is fashy In the field and can hit
any kind OF pitching with fair success
During the summer months he plays
with the strong amateur and travelling
scholastic teams around Philadelphia.
Berry is certain of the quarterback
position Oh the Penn football team in
1916. He packs considerable weight
and is speedy In covering ground. 1t
is probable that he may outshine big
