France up to December 10, 1914, is
given as $1,288, 200, 900, or, difference
in time considered, more than twice
the moun spent by Great Britain.
Taking the Russian expenditures to
November Is as a basis it is shown
that the Russian campaign has SO far
cost $4,000, 900 per day, or $1,3S0.O0O,-
900 up to January l. The expenditures
of the Belgian, Serbian and Japanese
governments are given as about ST.

The figures also show that it costs
the allies $2.05 per day to keep a man

No detailed amounts are given in
relation to the cost of the war to
Germany and Austro-Hungary. The
statement is made, however, that the
cost for the two is $21,000, 900 per day,

Adding to expenditures of all the
nations at war the daily total is about
$45, g62, 900 and the total up to Jan

1t is pointed out by the Vorwaerts
that from the French total expendi-

following. loans: To Belgium, $50, 000,.
900; to Serbia, $4,000, 900; to Greece,

EXPERT
WARN S
LAM BIS

NEW YORK, Oct. I.-SamneI
untermeyer, financial expert, has
issued dire warnings concerning
the wild speculations In tho
money market.
He said that never before in
the history of the stock exchange
did there exist so many pitfalls
ase are now open to the specula-
tors.
IL Is worse than hopeless for
the average man to try and win
fortune in the market, he said.
In the end they all lose. The
present activity is a feverish,
wild wave which has seized the
public to jump into senseless
speculations.
Untermeyer continued that the
latest experience will not be in
vain. although the cost will be
heavy and If 1t arouses public sen-
timent to point of compelling
government regulations to CON-
vert exchange into a great. iegitf-
mate and responsible security ex-
change, which is its right and
function.
