Many of the, families or employes

American and T.el.r!an troons' while
their immediate reserves total sixty-
three divisions. (On tbe basis of
12,000.' men In a German division,
this would be 2.100,000 men.) Pos
sibly several additional divisions
have reached various points behind
the lines, but the fart has not been
established with certainty. At any
rate, it Is agreed by authorities here
that tbe greatest possible number
the Germans could add to their

twenty divisions, which would bring
