STAGGERING COST
OF CONFLICT TOLD
Berlin Paper Says Europe Could
Have Been Made Paradise
With Expenditures.
FUNERAL, CoRTEGE OF MILES
Procession Would Stretch From
Paris to Vladivostock; Injured,
Half Around the World.

BERLIN. August 1.-THE Berliner
Tageblatt sums up the results Of the
war to date az follows:
War loans. :s7 1000. 006.U0o: loss in
dead and wounded 24,oo0.oo0 men;
killed. 100000 men; crippled for life.
100000 men; loss through decrease Of
birth rate in all bolligcrent countries.
100000 men.
Tho gold production OF the world
during the last 500 years amounted TO
3le.oo0.0o0, 900. or less than one-ffth
OF the cost of the awful world war"
tho paper continues. I'm IS gold
pieces the $4,000. 100000 raised in war
loans would form a bet that could be
wound around the earth nine times.
The funeral cortcse of. the 100000
men killed would reach from Paris
to Vladivostok. II one hearsc followed
tho other.
When the war began the combined
public debt of all l. ,ropean states was
little over $4,000, 100000. and now II
is over $4,000. 10000 The British
merchant Meet in 1914 represented
value Of about 5o.00o,OoU. That is
less than the annual interest England
now has to pay for her war debt. Be-
FORE the war Germany exported goods
to the amount of $4,000. 900 per year
to the British colonies. BY cutting
on this export. England can eventually
reimburse herself for her losses, but
this will take more than zoo years
Germany. with the amount spent by
her for the war. could have bought all
the cotton fields. the copper mines and
tho whole petroleum industry Of the
United States, and Still would have had
several billion dollars left over. Rus
5ia, with her war expenses, might have
covered her immense territories with
net of railways as close as that OF
Belgium, and France. whose losses in
men are larger than the entire male
population OF Alsaco-Lorrainc. could
have bought all OF the Portuguese and
Dutch colonies with the money she
sacrificed for the war.
With the enormous wealth de-
stroyed by the war. Europe might have
been made paradise on earth instead
OF bowling wilderness. There Is no
doubt that the awful struggle would
have been avoided u the nations had
any idea OF It's cnormity when II
started"

woman STRANGER \
GIVEN DEATH PENALTY
Sensational Vienna Murder Trial
Closes With Conviction OF Mrs.
Lcopoldine kasparek.
OFTEN ESCAPED DETECTION
Won Confidence of Wealthy and Ell
derby Women, Whom She Later
Strangled = Fourteen Attempted
Crimes Result in -Four Deaths.

VIENNA. August 11.-One of the
most sensational murder trials in the
history of the Austrian capital occu-
pied the Criminal Court of the Fifth
District four days last week and ended
with the conviction of the defendant,
Mrs. Leopoldine Kasparek. who will
have to die on the gallows. IL Emperor
Charles does not save her by an act Of
grace.
Although only twenty-three years
old. the convicted woman is one of the
most desperate and hcartless criminals
In the annals OF the police. She comes
from respectable family. and is the
wife OF a soldier who has been fighting
on the Russian front since the first
months OF the war. After her husband
was called to the colors she started on
her criminal career by committing nu-
merous thefts. robberIes and cxtortions.
In 1915 and 1916 she was arrested re-
peatedly, but always escaped with short
terms of imprisonment. because she
pleaded that she had been driven to
her crimes by want.
Since she left the workhouse the
last time the women attempted at least
fourteen murders and robberics, and in
four or five cases she was successful.
All Of her victims were wealthy elderly
women whose confidence she won in
some way. Her method was simple
enough. After gaining admittance to
the apartments OF the old women she
strangled them into insensibility and
then ransackcd the houses Ten OF
her victims recovered. but three were
found dead. and one died in a hospital
In every case the murderess managed
IN Nd Har
NAMED mysteries for many months. un-
when she stranglcd Mrs. Marie Wurish.
a scventy-year-old widow. and applied
the torch to the house Of the old wo-
man to cover up the murder
After her arrest the murdercss made
daring attempt to escape from prison.
To get herself transferred from the
Jail TO a hospital. she swallowed a
large darni,ig needle. which had to be
removed from her body by an opera
ton. AS soon as she had strength
enough she attacked one OF her nurses.
an elderly Sister Of Mercy. whose garb
she donned after strangling her al
most TO death. She succeeded I'm get
ting out of the hospital. but was re-
captured within half an hour.
At her trial the murderess mani
tested a cynicisn almost unbelievable
in woman. She did not show the
slightest trace OF remorse, Dragged of
her deeds and cursed the judges and
the Jurors. After death sentence had
been pronounced upon her II took the
combined efforts of six policemen to
drag her out of the courtroom. and on
TIC way back TO her prison cell she
fought like tiErcss.

From Battles in Poland That

BERLIN, August ia correspond

famous Polish poet Count Zygmunt
Krasinski. who died in Paris in 1850
After the Crimean War. in the fall
of 1856. the poet wrote to his friend.
Gaszynski:
The good people of France and
Our nation will have to endure ter
rible sufferings many years more. Then
a fearful war vii como. into which
almost all states of Europe will be
drawn. This wa will be largely fought
out in our beloved country which will
be turned into bowling Wilderness
and drenched with blood from one end
TO the other. Our sufferings then will
surpass everything we have endured
SO far. Fire. sword and hunger will
declmate our population, but on the
ruins the victory will erect a new and
glorious Poland to shame the good peo-
pie who have given us nothing but
words of sympathy and empty promises
ri aid in our struggle against Russian
tyranny. The European war. which I
see in the far distance. will end our
sufferings forever and bring us free
dom and new national greatness /
will be long dead when this happy time
arrives. but it is sure to come exactly
as l predict"
