U. S. CASUALTIES FOR ENTIRE WAR fmm 7,315 742 Men Were Killed in Action and 4,046 Have Been Wounded. WASHINGTON, D. C. June 10. Total casualtties among the American expeditionary forces reported by Gen. Pershing, including today's list of 198 names, number 7,315. This was announced by the war department in making public the first weekly summary of casualties abroad. Deaths in action and from wounds, disease, accidents, and all other causes number .927, while 4,046 men have been wounded and 342 are missing in action, including men held prisoners in Germany. Reports Issued Promptly. While no official explanation was given for the decision of the war department to advise the country each week of the exact total of casualties since the landing of the first American forces in France last June, it is understood that it resulted largely from widespread reports that casualties had been very heavy and that total figures were being withheld from the public. Hold Several Sectors. American troops have been in the trenches several months now and hold sectors at several pointB along the western front. In addition many American units are brigaded with the French and British and have been in heavy fighting since the German drive began in March. . Gen. Pershing's men first went into the front line last November for training and soon afterward they took over a trench Bector permanently. Other units went into the trenches for filial training with the French later and finally took over two sectors, so that the total frontase now held by the Americans ranks second to that of the Franch and British armies. Not Considered Large. Marine corps casualties are issued separately from those of the army, and no reports have yet come on the killed and wounded among the marines who have been engaged in heavy fighting near Chateau Thierry. Up to that fighting the marine corps' casualties had been low, as they were only recently moved up to the front line, having previously been engaged in police work along the American linea of communication. The number of men actually killed in action so far reported to the department is 742. while of the more than 4.000 wounded only 310 have died from their wounds. Disease Takes Heavy Toll. The 291 men listed as having been lost at sea went down with the torpedoed British 6hlp Tuscania and the torpedoed American transport Antilles. More American soldiers have died abroad from disease than have fallen in battle, while those who have died fmm DKriHenta onH nth or 'nnsps cut-
numbered those who have succuml'ed to wounds. Many of the deaths from accidents were among men training for the air service.

WILL ERECT LIFE-SIZE STATUE OF "JIM"
RILEY
(By Associated Pres) GREENFIELD, Ind., June 10. A life size statue of James Whitcomb Riley will be erected in the yard of the Court House here in memory of the Indiana poet. This city was his birthplace. Contracts for modelling the statue have been awarded to Mrs. Myra R. Richards of Indianapolis. The James Whitcomb Riley monument fund was originated many years ago by G. Beamer Davis of Greenfield, who was active in the sale of statue heads of the poet, especially to schools in many parts of the United States, Alaska and Hawaii. From each tale
the sum of $1 was set aside. Mrs. Richards modelled the head of the small statues, Riley having posed for the original. She is the only sculptor for whom the poet ever posed. The life-size monument will be bronze and will stand on a granite base. The head will be taken from the smaller model.
