on the figures obtained by Steward 8.

months observation of conditions in

Among other things Steward Barber
showed that during 1914 the average
attendance at the almshouse each

the aged and infirm of course are in
the almshouse as a result of the use
of intoxicants. The average number
of children maintained in the countys

to-day there are eighty, an increase of
thirty-three-and-a-third per cent

plete record Of losses which has been
put together. The losses Of Serbia

TO the war, these must be considerable.
The largest total loss Is charged to
Austria Hungary: the largest proper
tIonate loss to Belgium. The number
Of killed In Europe up 10 May 81 was
S, 200, 900. or enough individuals TO
populate Q country like Sweden.
The French offensive north Of Arras,
where 5000 are said to have been
slain; the Austro-Italian engage
ments: the great battle In Galicia and
the German offensive in tho Argonne,
all 70 70 swell the totals, and the war
Il not over. The most astounding fea-
ture Of this table is the ratio Of killed
10 wounded. in previous modern wars
the number Of wounded hrs been TO tho
number Of dead a. four or five to one.
Here the two eatagories are approxi-
mately equal.
Many Of the wounded have rejoined

Germany s Firm in frye Case;
VIII Pay but Not Admit Guilt

Washington. d. C.-Cermany is un-
yielding in her refusal to eoncede that
the sinking Of the American sailing
ship William p. Frye by the auxiliary
cruiser Prinx Eitel Fierdrich in the
South Atlantic last January was vio-
lation Of American rights under the
Prussian-American treaty or Of inter
national law.
In reply to the last representations
Of the United States. the German fore
ign Office, in note made public here
BY the State department, reiterates q
previous Justification Of Germany's
course, declares again her willingness
TO pay for the ship. and accepts q pro-
posal first advanced by the United
States--that the amount Of damages
be fixed by two experts, one to be So
lected by each country.
Such sum the German government
pledges itself to pay promptly. with
the stipulation, however, that the pay
ment shall not be viewed as q satisfac-
tion for violation of American rights.
Should that method be unsatisfactory,
Germany invites the United States to
arbitration at The Hague.
The unofficial view here Is that rep
aration through commission Of ex-
perts probably will be satisfactory to
the United States. with the express
provision, however, that It is not q
waiver Of treaty rights for which the
American government contends, but
applies only to the matter Of damages.
