GERMAN CASUALTIES 1000, 900.
Loss Of Men since War Hogan
May Top That Figure.

LONDON, May lS,-The total German
losses In tho war on both fronts down
to March 81 totalled almost 1880. 600
men. and losses since that date are GER
tainly sufficient TO put the present total
over the 1000. 900 mark. In the opinion
Of the Daily Chronicle, which says
I'VE have received what purports to
he ar authoritative statement OF the
casualties in the German ranks from
the beginning OF the war until March
90" 1t then goes on to declare that
It has in It's possession 225 published
German casualty lists, Of which $50 are
classified down to February II as fol-
lows: Dead-oficsrs. 1881 men, 23T,-
697 wounded-onicers. 1880; men,
720,+ 400 missing-oficers, l,S53 men.
1897. The total casualties so CLASH
fled are 1,175,6sL
The Chronicle Estimates that the fol-
lowing forty-fve lists will add at least
800, 900 more to this total, and probably
more. and that the struggles In the
Carpathians and the tremendous fight
Ing in Flanders, together with the last
six weeks casualties not yet classified,
will bring fhe total owe the 1000, 900
mark.

would advocate. Consequently the con .
clusion Is reached by those proceeding
upon this hypothesis that the German
reply Will he conciliatory and persuasive
rather than abrupt and DEFIANT.
Those who hold this view are Of the
drawn with A view to getting the
United States INTO a discussion OF issues
other than those upon which President
Wilson based his demands.
On the other hand there are those who
consider that the chances are even as to
whether Germany will offer concessions.
or what they regard as concessions.
or whether the reply will be moth
ing less than a fiat refusal Of all
that the United States has asked. These
latter persons consider that the Issue
hangs on the question as to which ele-
ment Is predominant In the councils at
Berlin. tho military or non-military
group. Certainly all edvlces received
from Germany recently have Indicated
that the hand which holds the sword"
rules Germany still.
That the people OF Germany and
Austria Hungary are being encouraged
in what Americans regard as an in
correct view of the Lusitania disaster IL

some OF the reports OF what German,
Austrian INC Hungarian newspapers
have been saying about II.

quarters in reply to the contentious.
made on behalf Of the German SUBJ
marine programme, that the torpedo
was fired at the Lusitania In such n way
as not to cause the liner to sink. and
that the sinking was wholly attributable
30 the fact that she had ammunition on
board.
The same word Is used to characterize
other contentious on behalf OF the
German act. such. for instance. as the
assertion that the British put Americans
on the Lusitania to protect the shipment
OF contraband. n hat the Americans
who shipped the ammunition on the
J.usitania were less humane than the
who sank her because the
ammunition on the liner would have
killed more Germans thar the sinking
of the Lusitania brought death to other
persons.
Similarly the charge OF a German
newspaper that the captain Of the
Iusitanis should be imprisoned because
he carried ammunition and passengers
on his ship Is not taken seriously here.
OFFICIALS regard all these contentious as
directed to the single purpose OF OBJ
securing the main issue. which Is whether
the German Government has the right to
attack and cause the death of American
citizens on the high seas.
The law referred TO by this German
newspaper Is as follows:
