FLAG NOT HAULED DOWN.
Denial Made by Berlin Government of
Reported Incident.

Berlin, Feb. Is. by wireless to Say
vile, Feb. 2l.-The question of hauling
down the American flag on the American
legation at Brussels has never been dis
cussed between Whitlock, American am
bassador, and any member of the Ger
man administration, the Overseas agency
says in an announcement made yester-
day. The agency annoucemet says:
"Brand Whitlock, the American minis
ter at Brussels, with all his staff contin-
ne work for the relief commission. After
the breaking off of diplomatic relations
between Germany and the United States,
the governor general made it known to
the minister that the continuance of his
philanthropic work for the commission
would be welcomed. The flag on the
building occupied by the American min
lister was never hauled down.
"The minister never discussed this ques-
tion with any member of the German
administration. Apparently his only dis
cussion of it was with the Spanish minis
ter, who replied that Minister Whitlock
could fly the flag as long as he continued
he work. The entire question is now of
no practical Importance, as the minister
is keeping on with the work"

ONE SHIP IN A
HUNDRED SUNK
BY SUBMARINES
British Embassy in Washington Makes
Statement Regarding Sea Warfare
Since Feb.

Washington, Feb. 2l.--The British en-
bassy issued a statement last night an
nouncing that Germany's widely adver-
tised campaign OF ruthless murder on
the high seas" resulted in the loss of
less than one ship in every hundred ply
ing in or out OF British ports between
Feb. | and IA.
The German wireless press messages, :"
said the statement. "since the German
declaration of indiscriminate submarine
warfare against merchant shipping with.
in a zone round the United Kingdom and
France, have been confined to advertising
achievements of German submarines.
"Claims to have paralyzed the mer-
camille marine activity of the allies, and
more particularly that of Britain. have
appeared, together with hints at vast in
crease in the number of German subma-
rines so employed
During the period in question. the
following are the figures of ships which
have arrived and sailed from ports in the

FORMERLY OF BARRE.
George D. Petrie Was Well Known as
Ball PLAYER in Barre.

George ID. Pctrie. formerly Barre
granitecutter and for some years promi-
nent in baseball circles in this city,
passed away at his home in Conway
Center. n. H., Monday night, according
to a telegram received yesterday by his
brother. Henry Petrie. of Glenwood ave-
nue.. who with the decessed's sister, Mrs.
William Wright of Forsythe place, left

SWEDEN PROTESTS
SINKING OF SHIP
Motor Vessel Was Laden with Saitpeter
for Swedish Farm

Stockholm, via London, Feb. 21.--The
Swedish government has asked Berlin
for particulars of the sinking of the
Swedish motor ship Hugo Hamilton.
The vessel, which was bought from her
Norwegian owners and was making her
first trip under the Swedish flag, was
bringing 1000 tons of Chile saltpeter
from Valparaiso and was consigned to
the Swedish Farmers association. Her
arrival was eagerly awaited because the
stock of saltpeter in Sweden is virtually
exhausted and there is general scarcity
of fertilizer.
The Hugo Hamilton carried crew OF
more than 80 and had on board the two
young sons of the catain.
The Dagbladt says:
"The fact that the vessel was coming
home from Chile renders it probable
thatt hose aboard had no knowledge of
the German proclamation of the new sea
war zone Illegality of the sinking is
evident.
Swedish sense of justice cannot let it.
self be satisfied with the declaration that
the vessel, coming from a remote port,
was inside the war zone and hence must
take its chances regardless of whether
the captain had knowledge of the new
dangers. Nor can an eventual money in
demnity make the damage good, since
at the present time it was precisely salt
peter and not money that the Swedish
farmers needed"
The Swedish government has also pro-
tested against the sinking of the Swed-
ish steamship Varing, 2,296 tons, which
was reported destroyed on Feb. 8.
