DRISCOLL of Clifton Springs, N.Y. Captain Paul BETOSKY of Waverly is reported dead as the result of an accident. Hereafter the War Department will give out lists of casualties as promptly as possible, which means that they will be furnished to the press when a reasonable period has been allowed for communication with relatives of the men whose names appear in the list. Instructions have been cabled to General PERSHING to send casualties to the War Department as fast as they are reported to him, and the department, for its part, will have the lists copied at once and furnish them to the press after a 24-hour period or other period is determined upon. Up to this time the practice has been to withhold these lists from the public for days and even weeks, for various reasons. *** Massachusetts Airman Killed. Champagne, Ill., Aug. 2.--Cadet S.W.
