missing. Among civilian, especially
on the Russian and Balkan fronts
and in Armenia, another 100000 are
figured as either dead or wounded
through the war. These figures are
admittedly only approximately and in
some instances necessarily several
weeks old. They are not called exact
in any sense, but are known to be so
nearly correct as to give fairly
reliable picture Of the wars results.
The figures as certainly minimum
figures, and then on careful re-
checking with all available authentic
information.
Loses on Each Side.
The Ententes losses are given as
6,318,400, as against 1884 300 for the
Central empires. One reason for the
great discrepancy between the two is
believed to be the relative unprepar-
edness of the Entente, the disastrous
retreats in France in the beginning
of the war, in Russia, from the Mazu-
rian lakes, and the Carpathians and
Rumania.
The Entente's dead total 1880 400
against 1,550,800 for the Central en-
pires; the Entente's wounded total
/ ,676,500, against $4,000 for their
enemies; and their captured and miss
ing 1,652,500, against $4,000 for the
Central empires. These losses are
based upon the assumption that in
Germany 90 per cent Of the total
wounded return to the front and 80
per cent in all the other countries.
Russia is infinitely the heaviest
loser so far, with grand total of
3,084,2O0 men. The. bulk of these
losses occurred in the Mazurian lake
disaster and the two retreats from
the Carpathians. Moreover, lack OF

has made the death rate in Russia
extraordinarily high. Their dead to-
tai 100000, their wounded 7S4,20O,
and their prisoners and missing 800,-
600, which is said to be much lower
than the probable number.
France has suffered the second
highest casualties with total of
1,81O,8OO, largely because of the early
retreat to the Marine and the terrific
losses in the defense of Verdun. Her
dead total $4,000; her wounded $780,
800, and her missing and captured
100000, though this last figure is
believed here to be improbably high.
England's total falls far below, be-
| ing about one-third Frances and one
sixth Russia's, owing, of course, to
her late sending Of continental
army. From now on, however, her
losses are expected to keep fairly
close to those of the French, who have
seriously felt the drain on man power.
England's total comes to 515,40O, with
205,400 dead; 102,50O wounded, and
107,500 captured and missing.
Rumania, though entering the war
only last summer, has lost half mil
lion men through her fatal attempt
to cross into Pennsylvania when the
Central Powers were outfanking her
through the Dobrudja. Her dead are
given as 100000; her wounded as
100000 and her captured and miss
ing about 250,00O.
Italy has been saved from extreme
casualties through the impossibility
of open operations of her mountain
Duh frontiers. Her total reaches 209,-
900, including 100000 dead, $4,000
wounded and $4,000 captured and
missing.
Belgium and Serbia, the only two
small States overrun by the German
machine after desperate resistance,
have lost very heavily in proportion
to population. Belgium's casualties
come to 10000 with $4,000 dead, 3d.
600 wounded and 100000 captured and
missing. Serbia's dead come to co.
600 and her wounded to $4,000, max
ing a total of $4,000, with the num-
ber of missing and captured large
but unknown.
Germany, among the Central en-
pires, is given as by far the largest
loser. Her total casualties are
,585,200, or 225,00o less thar
Frances. Her dead come to 893 200
which is slightly higher than Frances
while her wounded are set at 100000
and her captured and missing 245,00O
proportionately the lowest of the ma.
tions. Germany, because of hel
fighting on interior lines without hav.

with highly efficient medical ser
vice, has lost very few in captured

KING TELLS COMMITTEE
OF FOOD RIOTS HERE
~ a StdU Correspondent

WASHINGTON. April 25.-Testifying to-
day before the Senate Committee on Agri-
culture. which is drafting legislation to
meet the food situation during the war,
Professor Clyde L. King, of the University
Of Pennsylvania, told of the food riots in
Philadelphia and the results of the inves-
legations made as to the causes.
"Our investigation in Philadelphia
showed" he said, that food prices are
increasing more rapidly than wages. Some
thing must be done for the consumer.
ut is necessary that something be done
to eliminate the suspicion of the farmer
that he is not getting his just proportion of
existing high prices"
AS remedies for the existing situation
Professor King suggested:
Full marketing information.
Publicity as to the value Of foodstuffs
