Generally it takes him about 80
seconds to open, rea0 and dispose
OF each letter. But yesterday he
sat for as much as two minutes
with one letter in his hand. That
was remarkable, but it wasn't as
remarkable as the expression on
his face.
He was smiling over the letter.
This Is what he was reading,
written in a careful, girlish hand
on a neat letterheau that showed

When the Austrians were beat
en- back by the Grand Duke Mich
olas, Hindenburg took over the
strategy of the Russian line.
Thanks to this and the Russian
war office pro-German treachery,
the Russians were beaten some
more.
Statues to Him
The German populace began 10
look upon the old marshal as un-
beatable. All over Germany huge
wooden statues of him were erect
ed and nails were driven into
them at so much per nail, the
proceeds going to the Red Cross
and other war purposes.
But the jinx has gotten

charge of the western front.

in artillery and ammunition, and
often the ascendency in the air.

Germans have been compelled to
rejoice about crushing Rumania
and the capture of Riga, victories
of preparedness over unprepared-

Wherever the Germans met a
prepared foe like the French and
English they were defeated. Their
losses have been stupendous. They
can be numbered by the hundreds

The big outstanding facts

Shipping experts here are more
than ever convinced that America
will face a dearth of tonnage the
coming year, so serious as to pre-
vent movement of more than 800,-
900 to 100000 men by the end
of 1918.
Joint warnings of Sir Joseph
Maclay, British shipping controll-
er, and Lord Northcliffe, public!st,
that there must be 100000 tons
of new shipping annually, are not
unheeded here.
But such men as Secretary of
the Navy Daniels and Admiral
Benson declare that there Is no
occasion for becoming. hysterical
and that the submarine situation
Is more satisfactory.
One half of one per cent of
converted ships are being lost.
Practically all ships are under the
new convoy system.
