There will be sorrow in Danzig, Germany, if the American casualty list of yesterday ever arrives there. For in the seaport capital of West Prussia there lives the father of Corporal Walter Fenske, one of Pershing's doughboys, whose name was carried among the wounded in action yesterday. A brother of Fenske, fighting with the German army, has already been killed in action. Fenske, who is 23 years old and has lived in America since babyhood, was concluding his fifth year of employment with the Western Electric company when the president issued his proclamation of war last April 6 and called for volunteers. Promptly Answers Call. Fenske immediately responded, enlisting in the United States infantry. He sailed for France in June of 1917. A sister lives at 821 North Central Park avenue. The mother is dead. Private Stanley Stolowsky, also reported wounded, was formerly a teamster in Chicago. His widowed mother, Mrs. Minnie Stolowsky, and grandmother, natives of Poland, live at 2358 North Seeley avenue. The mother, who goes out daily to do laundry work to support herself, and Stanley's grandmother joined in this expression yesterday: "We will gladly give our boy to our country, and God will keep him safe. But if it is necessary for his life to be given to save dear Poland and the world from those awful Germans we will make the gift gladly." Private Claude A. Tiffany, another Chicago boy listed as wounded, enlisted April 30, 1917, in the regular army. He was formerly employed by the Chicago Belt Railroad company. Private James Martin, reported wounded, was listed as living at 5646 Magnolia avenue, but no one could be found in the neighborhood who knew him. ---------------~~ HEROES Four Whose Names Appear in Recent Casualty Lists from France. ---------------~~ PHOTO CAPTION: PRIVATE CLAUDE A. TIFFANY, reported slightly wounded, is a son of Chester A. Tiffany, 8350 Kerfoot avenue. He is 27 years old and enlisted in the Eightieth United States infantry April 30, 1917.

ROSEQUIST, whose death from wounds received in action was reported in THE TRIBUNE of Thursday, was a student at the first officers' training camp at Fort Sheridan, where he received his commission. His father, O. S. O. Rosequist, lives at 1113 Grant street, Evanston. CORPORAL WALTER FENSKE, slightly wounded, is an infantryman and has been in France since early last summer.
