CHICKEN THIEF GETS
SENTENCE TO NAVY
Yonkers Judge Gives Youth a
Choice of Enlistment or
Term in Jail.

YONKERs. n. Y, Dec l3-Enlist
in the navy or go to Jail was the se1
tence pronounced by Acting City
Judge Tracy p. Madden In the court
Italian. Tony Ferraro. twenty years
old, who was arraigned on technical
charge OF vaRrancy in connection
with chicken thefts in the second po-
lice precinct. The sentence caused
considerable surprise in the court
room. but the prisoner seemed salts
fed and promised to try to Join the
navy in the weeks respite granted
by the court.
Ferraro was arrested on Wednesday
by Policeman Hogarty on a technical
charge Of VagranCy. There had been
many chicken thefts in one section OF
town. and suspicion was directed
against the young Italian. whose par
ents live at Midland avenue. Tony's s
father is a laborer. and the son. too,
worked as a laborcr when he worke
at all. Tony is n powerfully built fel-
low, AMI his physical appearance
caused Judge Madden to suggest en-
listment in the navy as an oppor-
tunity to escape jail.
Consequently, when Ferraro pleaded
that his father and mother had etec:-
ed him from their home several
months ago and that he could not get
work and stole the chickens to keen
him from starving, Judge Madden
was not impressed by the excuse. and
said
THE United States navy needs big,
strong men like you. II you will en-
list III give you a week to do so. II
you are rejected or do not try to get

Text of Note to Austria

The Secretary of. state to Ambassa-
dor Penfield:
Please deliver note to the minister
of foreign affairs. textually as fol-
lows:
Reliable information obtained from
American and other survivors who
were passengers on the steamship
Ancona shows that on November 7
a submarine flying the Austro- Hun
garian FLAG fired p solid shot to-
ward the Steamship: that thoreupon
the Ancona attempted to escape. but
being overhauled by the submarine
she stopped: that after a brief
period. and before the crew and pas
senEers were al able to take to the
boats. the submarine fired a number
of shells at the vessel and finally
torpedoed and sank her while there
were yet many persons on board,
and that by Eunfire and laundering
of the vessel a large number of per-
sons lost their lives or were seriously
injured. among whom were citizens
of the United states.
The public statement Of the Austro-
Hungarian admiralty has been
brought to the attention Of Che Gov
ernment of the United states and
received careful consideration. This
statement substantially confirms the
principal declaration of the survivors,
as It admits that the Ancona after
being shelled was torpedoed and
sunk while persons were still on
board.
The Austro-Hungarian government
has been advised. through the cor
respondence which has passed be-
tween the United States and Ger
manv. Of the attitude Of the Gov
ernment of the United States az to
the use OF submarines in attacking
vessels OF commerce. and the acqui-
escence of Germany in that atti-
tude: vet with full knowledge on
the part OF the Austro- Hungarian
government of the views Of the Gov
ernment OF the United states. as
expressed in no uncertain terms to
the ally of Austria Hungary, ths
commander Of the submarine which
attacked the Ancona failed to put
In a place of safety the crew and
passengers of the vessel which they
purposed to destroy because. 1t is
presumed. Of the impossibillty OF
taking 1t into port as n prize Of war.
The Government of the United
The Washington times., 1915-12-13

states considers that the commander
violated the principles of interna-
tional law and of humanity by SHELF
ing and torpedoing the Ancona be-
fore the persons on board had been
put In place of safety. or even
given sufficient time to leave the
vessel. The conduct of the com
mander can only be characterized as
wanton slaughter Of defenseless non
compatants. since at the time when
the vessel was shelled and torpedoed
sne was not, 1t appears. resisting or
attempting to escape, and no other
reason Is sufficient to excuse such
an attack. not even the possibility
of rescue.
The Government OF the United
states Is forced. therefore. to con-
GUIDE either that the commander OF
,ne subma rine acted in violation OF
MS instructions or that the imperial
ana royal government failed to issue
its s,,bms to the commanders ,th e,
the law Of nations and tine principles
OF humanity. The Government OF
ihe United Stetes is unwilling to be
lieve the latter alternative. and to
credit the Austro- Hungarian gov.
eminent with an intention. to permit
its submarines to destroy the lives OF
helpless men, women, and children.
1t prefers to believe that the com.
ln3nuer or the submarine commltteu
this outrage without authority and
contrary to the gccnraI or special In
Struct'ons which. he had received.
AS the good relations Cf the two
countries must rest upon q common
regard for law and humanity. the
Government OF the United states
connot be expected to do otherwise
than to demand that the imperial
and royal government denounce the
sinking Of the Ancona as an illegal
and indefensible act. that the officer
who perpetrated the deed be pun
ished. and that reparation b" the
payment OF an indemnity be made
for the citizens of the United states
who were killed or injured by the
attack on the vessel.
The Government of the United
States expects that the Austro- Hun
garian government, appreciating the
gravity Of the case. will accede to
its demand promptly: and Il rests
this expectation on the belief that
the the Austro- Hungarian govern
ment viii not sanction or defend an
act which In condemned bv the
world az inhumane and barbarous:
which is abhorrent to all civilized
nations. and which has caused the
death Of innocent American citizens.
