Senator Duncan U., s e REVIEW AND One year ago yesterday the Austrian Archduke, Francis Ferdinand, and his wife were shot and killed in the little Bosnian town of' Serajevo by Garvio Prinzip. It was the act of Prinzip, a poor student, which ultimately re- sulted in eleven nations going to war. These nationg are, on one hand, Great Britain, France, Russia, Serbia, Japan, Belgium, Italy and Montenegro, and, on the other, Germany, Austria &pd Turkey. The war to date, accord- g to conservative estimates com- pled from the best avallable reports, has caused a loss to the various belli- gerents of more than six million men, dead, wounded and prisoners, and n.ore than flve hundred ships. of these about 120 were war vessels, Outstanding Results on Land. The outstanding results on land are these: ’ The greater portion of Belgium under the control of Germany. Germany has been driven from the Far Bast. A part of the Dardanelles is in the possession of the Allied troops. Portiofls of France and Russia are in the possession of Germian troops, A strip of Alsace has Deen taken #rom Germany. On the continent of Africa parts of territorial possessions have been lost Ly both sides. { Various island possessions of Ger- is | many have been taken by the forces of the Allles.. Ttallan ‘troops are in possession of a strip of Austrian. territory. _ Outstanding Resuilts at Sea. The outstanding resuts at sea’ are these: | German and Austrian mercantile skipping had beeh driven from all the vpen seas. y German and Austrian war vessels naving a total displacement of ap- proximately 257,000 tons have been destroyed. 2 War vessels of the Allled nations having a total displacement. of ap- rroximately 192,000 tons have been sent to the bottom. I The greater portions of the Ger- man and Alled fleets In the North sea remain Intact. Bxcept for communication through Holland and the Scandinavian nations, Germany is cut off from the rest of te world. Efforts on the part of the Germans to place the British Isles in a similar predicament has resulted m the sink- ing by submarines of hundreds of vesgels flying flags of the Allied and neutral nations. . Caused Protest from U, 8. The sinking in this menner of the Cunard liner Lusitania with the loss of more than one hundred American lives precipitated a request upon the part of the United States that such practices insofar as they might menace Amerfcans, be stopped. Prinzip's crime was committed on | 'June 28. An investigation disclosed what was alleged to be proof that the | assassin ‘was the tool of a group of Serblans. 'On July 23, after consider- able correspondence and negotiations an ultimatum was%sent to Serbia by the Austro-Hungarian guvernment, which Serbia declined to meet. A week later a general mobilization of "‘F.ussian troops ' along the German border was ordered and the following day Germany declared war on Russia. The news of that event was followed | in a few hours by the announcement that a geneéral mobilization had been ordered by the French cabinet. Germans Enter Luxemburg.

The following day saw the declar- ation by Great Britain of a state of war with Germany, and two days| later the Germans entered Liege as the. French invaded southern Alsace. These events were quickly followed | by an afirmation on the part of Italy | for her neutrality by an Austrian in- | vasion of Serbia and by the sending by Japan of an ultimatum to Ger- many. This had to do with the Ger- man possession of Kia-Chow of which | Tsingtau was the port. British Land in France. By August 17 the first British ex- peditionary farce had completed its landing in France and on that day there began also a flerce battle on the Jadar between the Austrian and Serbian troops, Victory was with the Serbia arms after flve days of fight- ing and the Austrians ‘were routed. In the meanwhile the battle of Lor- raine had opened and the German troops had entered Brussels, the Bel- glan capital. A few days later, August 28, the victorious Germans entered Namur and began 'an attack on Mons, defended principally by the first British expe- ditionary firce. The next day the British troops began a retreat from their position and from then on un- til September 12 the German troops drove through France under the lead- ership of General Von Kluck. Zeppe- lins bomparded Antwerp: the French were forced to evacuate Mulhausen; the Germans took and swept over Longwy and reached Senlis, thirty miles from Paris, where the columns swung to the eastward. The French government fled to Bordeaux. Teutons Met Russians. In the meanwhile German and Aus- trian troops had met the Russians. A ,Victory at Krasnik was announced by the Austrian government on August 23 while on August 29 the German army under General von /Hindenburg de- ‘ feated another Russian force in a bat- tle at Tanneburg, which lasted three !days. Louvain ‘was burned by the ,Germans on the same day that the | Japanese blockade of Tsingtau was be- |gun. The blockade was maintained more than two months before Tsing- tau surrendered. Twa days after the French govern. ment moved to Bordeaux the battle of ,the Marne was begun, a few hours be- !fore Russian troops succeeded in oc- cupying Lemberg, the capital of Ga- : licla. | Germans Forced to Retreat. Befare the French and British troops, the Germans in France were |forced to retreat as far as the Aisne. Events of the next few days included ithé bombardment of Rheims by the Germans, and the sinking by a Gere man submarine of the British crui- sers, Aboukir, Cressy and Hogue. On Ithe same day the Russian troops at- ! tacked Przemysl and took Jaros! British traops from India were land- ed from transports at' Marseilles on September 26 and were immediately ! dispatched to the northward.

In Africa revolt and mutiny broke out. ' These disorders were headed by the Boer leader, General de Wet, Gen~ eral Beyers, Colonel Maritz and others. Colonel Maritz was driven Cape Colony, General Beyers killed at Vaal river, and General de ‘Wet was captured after he had been | vast proportions, finally driving in the fleld for more than a month. Native troops in the African provin- ces belonging to Germany, Great Britain and France were lineéd up on the boarders of the respective pro- vinces. Fighting was general. During the latter part of October the British dreadnougth Audacious was sunk off the Irish coast; Russians successfully attacked Lodz and Radom, driving out the invading Germans. Turkey joined the war at that juncture by naval operations in ‘the Black Sea. Odessa was attacked. German Naval Victory. November opened with a German naval victory over a British squadron off the coast of Chile and the Turkish warships bombarded Sebastapol. Two days later German warships ventured from their anchorage behind the na- val base at Heligoland and bombarded the British coast in the vicinity of Yarmouth. On November 5, Great Britain and France declared war on Turkey and the forts guarding the en- trance to the Dardanelles were bom- barded by a fleet of allied English ana French warships. On the north the Russlans re-occupied Jaroslav after several days of ferocious fighting. German cruisers which had been stationed in foreign waters at the opening of the war had by that time glven a good account of themselves. The Emden operating in the Indain Ocean and adjacent waters overtook and sunk more than a score of mer- cantile ships belonging to the mna- tions allied against Germany befors she was finally run down and destroy- ed off Cocos Island. In the Atlantic the Karlsruhe and a number of aux- illary cruisers, duties, They too sent to the bottom more than a score of ships.

German cruisers and - Scar- borough, and the German armored cruiser Bluecher was sunk in *he North sea by a section of the British fleet operating there. German sub- marines became especially active dur- ing the winter months, sinking many warships and merchantmen. March opened with an announce- ment of British reprisal measures against the Germans for the suv- marine warfare and the development of battle in France. British troops in France again be- came active, making a notable ad- vance at Neuve Chapelle. By the end of March the Russian troops’ had penetrated the Dukla Pass and en- tered Hungary. April saw the be- ginning of violent assaults upon the German lines by the French east of Verdun and the Meuse. The French stormed the German position at Les Eparges and about the same time it was officially announced that the total of British casualties to that date were 129,347. By the middle of April the Russians had penetrated Hungary to a point twenty miles over the border, and the Germans had begun a sue- cessful assault upon the allied lines near Ypres. For several weeks the armies struggled back and forth, los- ing thousands of men, gaining ground one day and being forced to evacuate their positions the next. In Galicia during the first three days of May the German-Austrian forces broke through the Russian lines and forced a retreat. Fifty thousand prisoners, it was re- cited, were taken. British Lost Ground. Around Ypres the British forces lost ground and were finally forced to evacuate an especially strong position they had gained at an elevation desig- | nated as Hill No. 60 Almost simul- | taneously the Russians began a re- | treat from the Carpathian passes and while this was in progress the Cunard liner Lusitania, bound from New York to Liverpool, was sent to the bottom /by a torpedo fired by a German sub- marine. Approximately 1,200 lives were lost in the disaster. | The loss of Americans in the Lusi- | tania and other vessels which were | victims of Germany’s submarine war- | tare resulted in President Wilson pro- testing against a continuance of such tactics. | | Italy Declares War. On May 23, Italy declared war on Austria-Hungary after having de- nounced early in the month the triple alllance treaty. The declaration of war was quickly followed by ralds upon the Italian coast cities by Aus- trian aeroplanes. The Italian army struck across the border into Austria with Triest and Trent as objectives. During all this time the allied war- ships in the Dardanelles had been bombardment of the shore forts. Numerous warships of different types were sunk. Transports were hurried to the scene and troops were landed. One June 3 the Austro-German forces reoccupied Przemysl. After Adriatic Seaport.
