CHICAGO. April 5-The first gov ernment inquiry into the wages and conditions of the employment of sleep ing car porters and conductors, is be- ing made here by the '. s. Commiss- ion on lndusUiaal Relations. l.. s. Hungerford general manager of the Pullman Company, was on the stand most Of the day. He was questioned by Chaairman Walsh of the commiss- ion.
 In the first fifteen years of the sleep ing ear porters service, Hungcrford said he paid at from S27 to $50 a month. At ten or fifteen years, like other service of employees. the auto myatically received an advance of a dollar or S37 a month.
 In the first ten years a porter buys his own uniforms but thereafter the company has taken this burden The bonus system gives men good records and an extra months pay a year In reply 10 a question, he said the tips were not considered in giving wages. But he admitted the new porters on tourist cars were often given extra pay. He said he supposed the reason was that they did not get So many tips as on standard sleepers

REPLY ID THE
 IF GREAT BRITAIN 0UT. ID THE PUBLIC
Note Denies the Right of the A. lies or Their Justification in the SmbargO Places Against German Ports.
i. OTHER ATTITUDE WOULD BE
 TO EXPRESS UNNEUTRALlTY
The Reply Reviews, at Lenght, the Legal Phases of the Mat ter; U. s. Will Take Steps to Protect American Trade.

WASHINGTON. April The United State government made public its note jo Great Britain u which it was announced she did mot aduuu' the right of the allies or their claims for the justification in placing an em- bargo on commercial intercourse be- tween Germany and neutral countries.
 ITO admit it." says the communica- tIon would be to assume an attitude of unneutrality towards the present of the enemies of Great Britain which would be obviously, inconsistent with the solemn obligations this govern mcnt in the present circumstances. or for Great Britain to make such claim would be for her abandon and sc, at uaueht the principles for which she has consistently and earnestly contended in other times and circum- stances"
 The note reviews at length the legal phases ol the blockade of the belliger- eut territory. and the virtual block ade of neutral coasts In conclusion the United States tn its expectation of Great Britain "after having con- sidered' thg possibilities. "of serious interruption 0l American trade" uu- der the order iu council Twill take steps to avoid them in the event they should unhappily occur" will be prcpaered to make full reparatiou for every act which under the rules of international law constitutes a viola ionof neutral rights.
 The American communication in- terprets the circumstances, under which Great Britain claims to be jus tined in adopting theretailatory mea- sures. toward her enemies as merely a reason for certain eNtar ordinary activities byheruayal forces and mot am excuse for or a prelude to any uu- lawful action"
 "If the course of the present enc mics of Great Britain the note adds. should prove to be in fact tainted by illegality or disregard for the prn- ciples of war. sanctioned by enlighten- ed nations, it cannot be supposed that this government win not. for a moment, suppose His. Majestys goy- ernment would wish the same taint attach to their own actions
 Ambassador Sharp. at Paris. was instructed Co present a copy of the American note to Great Britain and 10 the French foreign office with the statement that although the French admiralty decree had been officially received in Washington, it is under stood that it will be identical with the British order in council the Ameri- can government therefore made a similar repy
