CLAIMS TEN MILLIONS
ARE IN PAY Of KAISER
Figures Given by British Solicitor
General in Argument Before
Prize Court.

LONDON, August 3.-At yesterday
session of the meat cargo cases before
a British prize court, Sir Frederick f.
Smith, the solicitor general, produced
a sworn affidavit made by Maj. Eric
Dillon, a member of the general staff,
giving a British estimate, which he
says is approximately correct, show
ing that the number of persons serv-
ing in the German army and under the
control of German military authority
aggregates 100000.
The statement was produced in sup
,ort of the crowns contention that
people employed in some of the ordi-
nari1y civilian occupations are now in
the service of the German government
and no longer part of the civilian popu-
lation: and that, therefore, the food
stuff seized by the British government
really was intended for Germany S
military forces.
Their Labors for War.
Maj. Dillon's figures follow:
A. Under arms on two fronts, in gar
risons in Belgium and on lines of COM
munications, 100000.
Bs In training in Germany, 100000.
C. Casualties, including constant
temporary wastage, 100000.
D. On railways, all of which are
used and organized specially for war
and are controlled by the military au-
thorities, 100000.
E. At Krupp's arsenals and factories
and other arsenals and factories con-
cerned in the manufacture of war muni-
tions, 100000
F. In coal mines and in factories con-
cerned in making army boots, clothing
and other articles necessary in the equip
ment and provisioning of the army,
1000, 900
100000 to Be Fed.
Solicitor General Smith argued that the
German government reserved the right
to substitute rations for money allow
ances to the wives and children of these
men.
Therefore. at the moderate figure of two
dependents for each of the 10000, 900,
he said, there would be 30.00O,000 who
might be dependent on the state for ra-
tions. SO that it would be fair to assume
that in all probability the seized goods
were intended for government use.

IDENTITY ESTABLISHED
BY PIECES OF CLOTH
W. H. Campbell Drowned in Canal
Two Years Ago-Wife Can Col
lect Insurance Now.

Pieces of cloth cut from the clothing
of a drowned man about two years ago
served to bring about the identifica-
tion of the body as being that of Will
liam H. Campbell, a former resident
of Washington, whose disappearance
was reported by his wife some time
after the finding of the body in the
Chesapeake and Ohio canal near Aque-
insured, and his wife felt satisfied he
was dead. although in the absence of
proof she was unable to collect the in
surance.
Mrs Campbell paid the insurance
premiums as they became due, and, it
is stated, she was about to give up
hope of ever solving the disappear
ance of her husband and abandoning
the insurance Several weeks ago,
however. she received bit of informa-
ton which suggested an investigation
to determine the identity of the body
found in the canal two years ago.
Morgue Master to Rescue.
It was learned that Mr.. Campbell re-
sided with a family on the 5000 block
of NJ street northwest, and that shortly
before he left there he was given ar
ticles of clothing. The woman who
gave him the clothing was positive she
would be able to identify it If it were
produced. Friends thought it might
become necessary to exhume the body
in an effort to get samples of the cloth
ing on the body, but William Schone-
berger, in charge of the morgue, was
able to supply the needed sample of the
clothing.
The morgue master always takes
samples of clothing from bodies that
are Unidentified and are not in condi-
ton to be photographed. He had the
samples cut from the clothing of the
drowned man, and the woman who had
aided Campbell was able to identity
| them without any trouble. first giving
a minute description of the cloth.
Mrs. Campbell had not seen the
clothing Her husband went away from
home several weeks prior to the find
ing of the body in the canal, the police
were told, and the finding of the BODY
did not attract her attention. Friends
assisted her in the search, and>yester-
day Coroner hewitt was convinced OF
the identity of the body.

RUSSIAN STATEMENT.

RUSSIAN STATEMENT.
PETROGRAD, August 2, via London
August 3:
There was no important change sun
day in the Mitau-Bausk district. East
of Poniewesch Saturday evening we
continued to press the enemy ad-
vance guard, taking another 800 Ger
man prisoners, including 3 o1hcers'
and & machine guns. The Germans
on Sunday brought up the main body
of their troops and tried to take the
offensive, with the result that in the
ensuing fights both sides were at
tacking.
On the Narew front Sunday evening,
after several days stubborn fightlns,
the enemy succeeded in progressing
toward the right bank of the NareW;
Near the confluence of the PISA ana
in the Rozan district the enemy con-
centrated considerable forces, which
continued Sunday to deliver attacks
in the direction of branch rail-
way south of the station at Ostro-
lenka as far as and including the
village of Kabyline: Here the battle
continues extremely desperate and
sanguinary.
On the Vistula front Sunday the ac-
tions which were continued termi-
mated in our favor northwest of BIO
ME and south of Cora kalwarya:
Enemy detachments which crossed
the Vistula near Magnucheff and
Rijtchivola were driven back toward
the river. In the district of Matte
vitze the enemy strove by vigorous
attacks to extend his front, but to
little purpose, the fighting being con-
Quoted Sunday on virtually the same
front as before. Near the Ivangorod
crossing Sunday evening, after
stubborn engagement our troops on
the left bank of the Vistula with
drew to a more concentrated posi-
ton. Between the Vistula and the
Bug desperate fighting continues.
In the direction of Liubart. off on the
Magnuszow front, as far as the Bys-
tritza, as we'll as on both banks OF
the Vieprz, and in the district OF
Travniki-Voldava road, We repulsed
all enemy attacks Sunday.
In the sector to the left of the Bug our
troops occupied a new front farther
to the north of Chelm without mo-
lestation on the part of the enemy.
On other sectors of our entire front
there have been no important en-
gagements.
In the Black sea our torpedo boats set
fire to a coal depot and the coal dis
trict, and destroyed ten sailing ves-
sells loaded with coal
