100000 GERMANS
KILLED IN THE WAR
In 6,066, 700 Total Casualties
There We're 4,750,000
Prussians.
NAVAL LOSSES INCLUDED
Number Of Officers Killed Up
to October "a Was
44,70Q.

Two million dend men paid the price
OF the German ambition TO rule the
world, according to copy OF the
Cologne Gazette which reached New
York yesterday. The paper gave a
list of the German casualties UP to
October 20.
In the 6,066.7se total casualties
there we're 4,75O,O00 Prussians. Naval
casualties, including $4,000 dead, more
than $4,000 missing and $4,000
wounded, were included in the grand

Gd<ettc, placed the number Of dead at
1,611,104. the number OF wounded at
3,6s3,143 and the missing at 772,522
The paper says that of the number
reported missing, 10000 may be con-
sidered dead.
Tho Cologne paper uses the word
appalling in describing the casualties
among the officers. The total on Oc-
tober "a included 44,70o officers killed
S2,460 officers wounded and 1860
missing. n total OF 14o,75o. The loss

exceeds the total casualties of Ger
many in the Franco Prussian War OF

Sos.
The total on October "a. which did
not include casualty lists from the
fighting on the western front after

FIRM DENIES WASTE
AT HOG ISLAND YARD
Charles Stone Explains Why
Cost Exceeded Estimate.

Answering the charges Of waste and
mismanagement against the Ameri-
can International Corporation In
building the great Hog Island ship
yard. made in a report Of the Depart
ment Of Justice, Charles A. Stone. head
Of that firm. declared yesterday that
the cost was justified by the demands
Of the situation. The whole enter
prise he described as the greatest
engineering achievement of the age,
even greater than that Of the Panama
Canal.
To show the appreciation of Charles
NJ. Schwab. Mr.. Stone produced a let
ter sent him by the Director General
of the Emergency Fleet Corporation
upon his retirement, which says that
the undertaking at Hog Island was
one that should reflect a great deal of
credit upon you and your firm rather
than some OF the criticisms It has un-
Justly received. I shall always stand
as an advocate OF the work you have
done there"
Mr. Stones reply TO the Depart
ment OF Justice report In part follows:
"It would not have been surprising
II, IN an enterprise Of this magnitude
with an organization so hastily as
sembled and with the work progress
ing at such speed. irregularities had
occurred. II is highly gratifying,
therefore, that no graft, profiteering
or financial misconduct OF any kind
whatever has been found.
THE report intimates that the Job
was done extravagantly. 1t points out
no single expenditure that was waste
full, but It states, as an inference
merely. that there was extravaganza.
THE original estimate was neces-
sarily inadequate. We had no stand
ards or presidents to guide US in such
a gigantic undertaking.
After the original estimate was
made the scope OF the yard was in
creased at least 30 per cent. Further
more. as the work progressed the cost
more than doubled, both in labor and
materials. These two facts fully ex-
plain the difference between the
original estimate and the final cost.
AT the continued hearings before
the Senate Commerce Committee,
which are TO proceed directly after
New Years, all the facts can be
brought out. 1t will then be shown, !
am sure, that while the yard was
necessarily costly as a war measure.
yet there was nothing in the cost
which was not necessary or justified
by the situation.
Furthermore, am equally certain
It will appear that this great under
taking instead OF being one deserving
criticism. is really one OF the greatest
engineering feats OF the age-a monu-
ment to American efficiency and an
achievement of which all those en-
gagged on the work and the entire
nation may rightly be proud"
