BROWN'S TROCHES
OVER TEN MILLION
FALL INTHE WAR
Table of Losses Show Allies to
Have Suffered Almost Twice
as Heavily as Foes,
RUSSIA THE HARDEST HIT
Washington, March 12. More than
ten million 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 bel
ligerents received heie.
Among the military proper 4,441,200
are reported dead; 2,598,500 wounded,
and 2,564,500 captured and missing.
Among civilians, especially on the
Russian and Balkan frontiers in Ar
menia another 400,000 are figured as
either dead or wounded through the
r.
Figures Not Exact.
These figures are admittedly only
approximate and in some instances
necessarily several weeks old. They are
not called exact in any sense, but are
known to be so nearly so as to give
a fairly reliable picture of the war's
results.
They depend for their accuracy
first, on the official reports of the
various belligerents which are certain
ly minimum figures and then on a
careful rechecking with all available
authentic information.
Allies Lose the Most.
The entente's losses are given as
6.318,40", as against J.3S4.800 for the
central empires. One reason for the
great discrepancy between the two is
believed to tie the relative unprepared-
ness of the entente, the disastrous re
treats in rrance at the beginning of
the war, in Russia from the Mazurian
lakes and the Carpathians and in
Koumania.
The entente's dead total 2,890,400.
against 1,550,800 for the central pow
ers; the entente's wounded total 1,
676,500, against 922,000 for their ene
mies, and their captured and missing
l,6M,SUO. against 91J.U0O tor the cen
tral powers. These losses are based
upon the assumption that in Germany
90 per cent of the total wounded return
to the front and bU per cent in all the
other countries.
Russia Greatest Sufferer,
Russia is infinitely the heaviest
loser so far, with a grand total of
3,084,200 men. The bulk of these
losses occurred in the Mazurian lake
disaster and the two retreats from
the Carpathians, when prisoners were
taken by the tens of thousands.
Moreover, lack of communications
and hospital facilities have made the
death rate in Russia extraordinarily
high. Their dead total 1,500,000, their
wounded 784,200 and their prisoners
and missing 800,000, which is said to
be much lower than the probable
number. ,

highest casualties with a totitl of !,
810,800, largely because of the early
retreat to the Manic aiid the terrific
losses in the defense of Verdun. Its
dead total 870,000, wounded 540,000
and missing and captured 400,000,
though this last figure is believed
here to be improbably light.
England's total falls far below, be
ing about one-third of France's, and
one-sixth of Russia's, owing, of
course, to its late sending of a conti
nental army. From now on, however,
its losses are expected to keep fairly
close to tilose of the French, who
have seriously -felt the drain on man
power. England's total comes to
so.hOO, with 205,400 dead, 112.500
wounded and 107,600 captured and
missing.
What It Cost Roumania.
Roumania, though entering the war
only last summer, has lost 500,000
men through its fatal attempt to cross
into Transylvania when the central
powers were outflanking it through
the Dobrudja. Its dead are given as
100,000, wounded as 150,000 and cap
tured aifd missing about 250,000.
Italy has been saved from extrertie
casualties through the impossibility
of open operations on its mountain
ous frontiers. Its tolal reaches 209,
000, including 105.000 dead, 49,000
wounded and 55,000 captured and
missing.
Belgium's Casualties.
Belgium and Serbia, the two small
er states overrun by the German ma
chine after desperate resistance, have
both lost very heavily in proportion
to population. Belgium's casualties
come to 112,000, with 50.000 dead,
22,000 wounded and 40,000 captured
and missing. Serbia's dead come to
60,000, its wounded to 28,000, making
a total of 88,000 with the number of
missing and captured large, but un
known. Germany, among the central em
pires, is given as by far the largest
loser, its total casualties being 1,585,
200, or 225,000 less than France's. Its
dead come to 891,200, which is slight
ly higher than France's, while its
wounded are set at 450,000 and its
