Milwaukee, April 5.--The Anti-Sa-

votes of under 1000 went wet by ma
jorities of ten or less.

ALLIES GAINED SO STEAMERS
Admiral Bridge Asserts Present Short
age of Tonnage Is Due to Great
Requirements of Military
and Naval Forces.

London, April Answering the
statement coming from Germany that
the kaiser expects to win the war by
destroying the British merchant feet,
Admiral Sir Cyprian Bridge issued a
report showing the loss by British
steam shipping has been less than four
per cent of the total number of yes
sells under the British flag.
Admiral Bridge said the amount
of merchant shipping built in Great
Britain since the beginning of the war
was greater than the number of YES
sells lost and the combined losses of
France and Great Britain had vir-
tually been made good by the building
of new vessels.

more than year of the war, the
steam shipping Of Great Britain in
creased SIS vessels and $4,000 tons.
France at the end of 1916 was only
short nine steamers and 1880 tons
of the previous years total. Italy and
Russia both show an increase in ton

1t is therefore clear that the pres
ent shortage of tonnage is due not to
the action of the submarines but to
the great requirements of the military
and naval forces. The latest pub
lished statement of these show that
they are demanding 300 merchant
