LOSSES SUFFERED BY
CONTENDING NAVIES
An Immense Number of Ships De
stroyed, Representing 100000 Tons
for England and Allies.

LIVERPOOL, June 10. CORES.
pondenee of The Associated Press.) -
After ten months of war the losses suf-
fered by the contending nayies present
some interesting points for speeula-
tion, says the Journal of Commerce,
affording comparison of the relative
merits of the various offensive weapons
in the naval struggle, and showing how
costly it is to the countries concerned
to indulge in minor encounters.
Summarizing the losses under types
of vessels, Great Britain and her allies
have been deprived of the services of
eight battleships, IA cruisers, four gun
boats, six destroyers, 10 submarines,
IA boats and six armed merchantmen

The losses of Germany and her allies

marine and 20 armed merchantmen and
auxiliaries.
Separating the losses under the vari-
Gus causes, neglecting auxiliaries and
armed merchantmen, the torpedo has
destroyed 49, 900 tons of allied yes
sells, the mine $4,000 tons, gunfre 27,-
600 tons and $4,000 tons have been
lost in various other ways.
The German, Austrian and Turkish
fleets have been deprived of $4,000
tons of war vessels by means of the
torpedo, $4,000 tons by the mine. ST.
600 tons by gunfire, and $4,000 tons
from various other causes.
These figures show that England
and her allies have lost 100000 tons
of naval fighting material costing ap-
.proximately $100,000,000, while the
lTeuton and Turkish losses total 14O. 900
tons, worth about $60,000,00O.
The figures also show that the mis-
lcellaneous losses officially recorded are
| approximately the same ON both sides
while from torpedo, gun and mine the
British and their allies have lost near
| ly double the tonnage that their op.
ponents have lost by the same causes
| BY torpedo the British losses are ten
times more than those of the other
side, which shows clearly how import
ant part that weapon plays.
In gunfre England has established
a long lead, chiefly because the Ger
imam ships at large, when war was de
elared, have been destroyed by this
means. In the armed merchantmen
and auxiliary class the net register
tonnage of allied ships destroyed
Iamounts to 10000, while the German

approximately double that figure The
Total financial loss in this instance
amounts to about $4,000, 900.
Thus ten months of skirmishing anC
preliminary actions, leading to no def
mite result so far as the question Of
navy supremacy is concerned, hat
brought about the destruction of abou
100000 tons of warships costing $175,
600, 600.
