10000, 900 CASUALTIES is TOLL OF
EUROPEAN WAR

Washington, March 11-More than
100000 men are recorded as killed,
wounded captured or missing in the
European war in the first complete
tabulation Of official and authenticated
semi-official reports of the various
belligerents received here.
Among the artillery proper, 4,441,-
200 are reported dead; 2,59S, 500

were orderly and there was steady
stream of voters during the day.
Troops were not in evidence, the SOL
diers casting their votes in their bar
racks.
Mexico will now have constitution
al President for the first time since
1911, when Francisco Madero received
more than 100000 votes. General Vic
toriano Huerta called an election in
, 1914 and declared himself elected, but
later nullified the election on the
grounds that an insufficient number
of votes had been cast.
His election to the Presidency
marks the climax of the efforts of Gen.
eral Carranza, who took the field
against Huerta February 10, 1918, af-
ter Huerta had seized the executive
power.
The election today was simplifled
by the fact that there Is no Vice Pres
ident under the new constitution 1t
will be some time, however, before the
returns Of the Congressional elections
are definitely known, although the
candidates on the ticket Of the Con-
stitutionalist-Liberal party, which
first backed Carranza, are running
strongly in most Of the districts.

The Entente's losses are given as

Central Empire. One reason for the
great discrepancy between the two is
believed to be the relative unprepared-
treats in France at the beginning of
the war, in Russia from the Mazurian
lakes and the Carpathians, and in
Roumana.
Russia is infinitely the heaviest
loser so far with a grand total of g.

DRAFT MACHINERY TO EMBRACE ALL
 PEACE OFFICIALS

WASHINGTON, Dec. IA. - Every police official in the country will be- come a part of the great machine or ganizcd for building the national ar my, under war department plans an- nounccd by Provost Marshal Gen. Crowder.
 Postal authorities also will play an active part in helping to carry out the new regulations, and the depart ment believes that with the aid of these two agencies local exemption boards will be greatly assisted in reg istering the men and getting them to training camps as they are called.
 Police throughout the nation will be instructed to take into custody men who fail to report for physical examination or who violate any of the new rules and regulations. They also will be charged to arrest and de- liver to camps men who have been in ducted into the military service by the local boards and who fail to en- train for mobilization. Such men are classed under military law as desert CTS and rewards of $50 will be paid for their arrest and delivery at the camps.

 Stacker Commissions Stopped
 So-called stacker commissions" by which mon of draft age seek to escape service in the ranks and get officers places in noncombatant branches of the amy, have struck a snag in the general policies laid down by Secretary Baker.
 These are, first, that no men of draft age be commissioned unless it is shown clearly that they are better fitted for the special work to which they are called than any civilian be yond the draft age whose services can be secured, and second, that no function of. the army that can be car licd on efficiently with civilians shall be placed on a military footing by commissioning the men needed to supervise the work.
 Room For Older Men
 The problem of commissions in the statr departments of the army that have to do with the supply lines, transportation, construction and a hundred other uoncombatant func- tions of the service is a difficult one There have been numerous cases of young men of draft age who have obtained commissions in those ser vices, and therefore are exempt from the operation of the selective service under which the fighting troops are being moblized. The policy is found- ed on the theory that there are older men in the civil life we'll fitted for the special duties required to whom such commissions could be given, leaving the men of draft age to the operations of the law.
