It is possible that not all the deaths have been reported, but the possible number of rs is small and 2354 is approximately orrect total. t is difficult to approximate the cost of the war in dollars and cents, for it is impossible to determine just what propor- | tion of the increased military and naval | expenses of the Government should be charged to that war. Estimates pre- ed by expert accountants of the Treas- ¢ Department show that the cost of the army and navy since the beginning of hostilities in the Philippines has been $164,750,000 in excess of \\"!zl it would have been if the same average rate of expen- ditures had been maintained that pre- vailed before the war with Spain. On_the other hand, at the termination of the war with Spain, there were on hand t quantities of military supplies of all kinds, which have been available for Philippine operations, and which can properly be charged to the Philippine ac- count. 2 Subtracting from the apparent increased cost of the army and navy $30,000,000 on account of new construction and other expenditures in the not directly due to the Philippines, and $15,000,000 for army expenses not connected with operations the islands, there is left $150.750,000 as approximate cost ary and na- operations in the i $20,000,000, paid to Spain rder the terms of the (reaty of peace nd charging to the Philippines interest n the war loan since June 30, 1899, the 1\«-\‘ Philippine commissions sed on a by the the army and t rtment e ha , giving although it was not until | Expended.

Prior to the present trouble in China this coun- try had in the Philippines an army num- | bering 63.598 oflicers and enlisted men. In spite of this force, the Filipinos have been atle to maintain a species of guerrilla ng;wnrfare. which resulted in more casual- ties to the American forces than the strength of the enemy would rant, especially wh sideration that the war there has been - days scarcely a figh that could be dignified by the térm ‘“‘bat- | Yet in the incessant skirmishes that | tle, have marked almost every day since the insurrection began the Americans have | | lost 533 men killed in action, and there have been 1668 dGeaths from other causes, | ense, though this | most of them from total embraces a few cases of suicide and death by drowning and accident.
