MANY PRISONERS OF WAR
Figures Go Up into Millions When
All Nations Involved Are Taken
Into Consideration.

Many joyful reunions will take
place when the great war comes to
an end. Tens of thousands of men
who have disappeared and from
whom no word has been received
will return to their homes, for the
total number Of prisoners held by
the warning nations on both sides is
given as more than 4,116,O0o.
These figures were recently COM
piled by Spanish newspaper, but
are from reports many months old,
so do not include Italians captured
in the recent disaster.
Russia has suffered appalling
losses 2,OSo,S99 Of her soldiers are
prisoners, while the enemy holds

1907 Montenegro captiyes Of war.
Next to Russia, Austria-Hungsry
has lost most heavily in prisoners.
These figures show the number Of
soldiers Of Germany and the nations
fighting with her captured by the
allies: Russia, 901591; Great Brit
ain, 13l,776; France, 102,0A; Ser
bia, s0,s36; Italy, 4O,6s1.
Fewer and fewer casualty lists
are issued as the war progresses, but
these include large numbers under
the word missing" Those at
home can only wait; but there is
always the hope that when the war
endE the soldier will come back to
those who love him.
