A German fleet during the past week left the Kiel Canal for a short cruise in the North Sea. A hasty re-
treat was made, however, before ally engagement with British warships took place. It appears that during
the r Bent Zeppelin raid on England several German' cruisers left the canal intending to make a raid on the
Britieh coast. They discovered, however, that the .preparations and watch of the British Fleet were greater
than they had haunted upon, with the. result that the enemy warships were turned hassle.
A sensation in Great Britain was the attack on the policy of Mr. Balfour by Colonel Churchill, his prede-
ccsscr as British Lord of the Admiralty. Mr..Balfour replied in as vigorous a speech as that of his critic.

A despatch from Ottawa says: The
list of actual casualties among the
Canadian forces including killed in ac -
ton, diedf wounds and sickness,
wounded and missing, but not known
'to be prisoners -of -war, has been to-
talled up to March 1 by the casualties
branch of the Militia Department, and
'. emounts to 13,901. There have been
killed in action 2,338 Canadians. Some
`988 have died of wounds and 298 have
succumbed to sickness, or a total of
known dead of 3,624. There is be-
sides, however, a list of missing men
not known to be prisoners -of -war, of
1,012. It is practically certain that
by far the greater number of these
men are dead, which swells the list
of Canadian dead to almost 5,000. The
total number of wounded is 9,325. If
prisoners -of -war and cases of sickness
are all included the total number of
casualties would be nearer 25,000
men.
