In a book describing more than 200 battles In France and Belgium during the lato war, concludes from data collected by hint that 75,000 'French soldiers were killed by their own artillery through Uefectivo liai son. The 1ossp3, lie say.i, were higher by 50 percent In the French army tluin In the German army. "I lie loss es ot the Freuch infantry, ho finds wei-e comparatively four times greajer than tlie losses of the ar tillery. He rixes the French losses from the enemy's fire at 0,000,000 killed: and wounded. Geiwral Percln was military gov ernor of the fortress of Lille just; after tlie outbreak of the war. He evacuated the fortress on orders re ceived froin the government when the Germans approached the Iron- tier nnd was, for .a long time, sup posed by the general public to have cvaucated the place of his own voli tion. A lively controversy between his friends and adversaries has been going ever since as to whether he was badly treated by the General Staff. He has severely criticised the conduct of tho war in tho field by the French staff. mm t f-. Fruit trtci budded from btlrui oreh.
