ents During the drive into Italy last
October and November the Teutonic
armies claimed the capture of more
than $50, 900 Italians. In the German
Offensives in France this year about
10 900 French, British, American and
Portuguese were reported to have been
taken prisoners.
Added to these losses are the casual
ties in killed an wounded. No definite
figures have been issued by Germany
and Austria, but it has been reported
on what appears to be good authority
that in the fighting from March 21
till June IA the Germans lost more
than 100000 men. The French and
British losses were considera bly,
smaller. as the allies were fighting
from entrenched positions.
Financial Aspects.
The United States has f1oated three
great Liberty loans. The proceeds of
these loans have aggregated $10,7SS,-
541. 800. The total war cost to the
United States, according to latast
aVaila BILE figures, is SIS, 80O,00O,00O.
Since the nation entered the war it has
extended credits to the allies aggre-
eating s6,o91, $4,000.
The total cost of the war to Eng
land up to December Is, 1917, was
placed at f6,242. 100000, while French
votes of credit are somewhat smaller.
At latest reports the total of the Ger
man war loans approximated SS1, 900
900, 900.

many times during the past spring and
summer and there is little doubt that
the Slavic races of Austria are seeth-

Ireland came to the center Of the

but nipped in the bud, with the ar
rest of seventy ght leaders Of the

Recently disaffection was reported

One Monarch Died.
During the year one ruler of bel

the Sultan of Turkey was announced
in June. subsequent reports intimating
he had been murdered.
Assistance For Russia.
Since the collapse of Russia the
Allied nations have sought to find a
way to assist the people who are being
exploited by the Germans. French,
British and American forces have
been landed on the Thurman or Kola
peninsula, on the north coast. They
have not actively interviewed however,
being there only to protest Allied prop
erty which had been landed at the
port Of Kola before Russia withdrew
from the Entente Alliance.

Hospital Ships Sunk.

During the year eleven hospital
ships have been sunk by submarines,
the attest and most fragrant case of the
violation Of the Geneva Convention
being the destruction of the British
steamer Ilandovery Castle, carrying
Canadian nurses and doctors. This
took place on June q, only twenty
four of the 25S persons on board being
rescued
The total shipping reported sunk
snce August l, 1917, is more than A.
100000 tons.
Against this destruction of shipping
the Allies have combined their ship
building capacity. The actual number
Of tons of shipping launched and put
into service has not been published.
Official announcements have been
made in the recent past however, to
the effect that more ships are being
built than are being sunk. On July 4,
ninety vessels were launched at
American shipyards.

Pave, but on the west bank met
with such stubborn resistance that
progress was impossible. Slowly the
AustrianS were driven back toward
the river and then the PiaVe. swollen
by rains in the mountains, complet-
ed the overthrow of Austria's hopes.
After suffering terrible losses the
Austrians rctrcated to the eastern
bank of the Piave from the MontelIo
plateau to the Adriatic.
Minor Operations.
Among the years operations of
comparatively lesser importance were
the British drives in Palestine and
Mesopotamia; the Turkish advance in
the Caucasus; the French and Italian
offensive in Albania; and the fighting
i'll the German African colonies
Jerusalem was captured by the
British on December 10, and short
ly afterward the fall of Jericho was
announced. Since the taking of Je-
richo the British forces in Palestine
have not been active on the offensive.
General Maude led the British
troops into Ragdad On March IL, and
shortly afterward died from cholera.
His forces pushed further up the
Tigris until the intense heat Of sum
NOR terminated operations
The Turks after the collapse of
Russia took advantage of the de-
moralized condition of the Russian
forces to advance through the Cau-
casus and obtain possession Of the
regions subsequently coded them by
the treaty of Brest-LitoVs1.
The French and Italian drive in
Albania began on July and is still
in progress.
During the year British forces in
Africa drove German forces before
them in German East Africa and in
German Southwest Africa and finally
! compelled them to dispense or sur
render, This took from Germany the

Russian Collapse.

Events IN the meanwhile had been
moving swiftly in Russia. ON No
vember l. while the offensive against
italy was under way, Alexander +.
Kerensky, then the Russian premier.
announced that Russian was worn out
by the war and that the Allies must
shoulder the burden thenceforWard
Seven days later Kerensky was de-
posed by the Bolshevil1i. The fall
and flight of Kerenslly was the signal
for Germany and Austria to enter
into peace negotiations with Russia
On November so the Bolsheviki an
nounced that Russia was out of the
war and proposed that all the Allies
join in negotiations for an armistice.
Russian and German representa-
tlVes met at BreSt-LitoVsk on Deem
Der 22 and terms of peace were eX-
changed. No progress was made with
the negotiations and the conference
was broken up on January IL. In
the meantime, Il new republic had
sprung from the side of Russia. 1t
was Ukraine, territory eXten ding
along the Rumanian and Galician
frontier from the Black Sea, north
ward to Cholm, in ancient Poland
