connection with the private wire house,

ment. Later developments showed that
efforts We're made by Mr.. Boiling to have
the real source of the message that was
sent from the offices of F. A. Connolly
& Co. uncovered. as he felt himself &C
cused in much of the current comment.
1t was at his solicitation that the
telegraph operator. who handled the ia
mour wire to Hutton & Co, told the con-
gressionaI committee that J. Fred Es-
sary, a local newspaper man, was the
real author of the digest of the peace
note.
1t developed at the investigation that
Mr.. Boiling had acquired an interest in
F. A. Connolly & Co., for a considera-
ton of 100000.
r. W. Boiling. when interviewed by
a representative of The Star today.
declared that he had decided to make
no statement other than that he was
out of the brokerage business for all
time Mr. Connolly was "out of the
city," and could not be communicated
with.

FRENCH LINER CHICAGO
ARRIVES AT NEW YORK
Passes Through Submarine Zone
With 1S1 Passengers-Aeroplanes
Now Direct Entente Infantry.

NEW YORK, February 15.-Another
Chicago, which passed safely through
Germanys zone of unrestricted sub
marine warfare, arrived here today
with ISL passengers. No U-boats were
observed, the officers said. nor any
friendly war vessels. although the
wireless spoke of the presence OF
French patrol boats off the French
coast.
Among the passengers on the Chicago
were Robert MacCreary of East Aurora.
N Y, an American ambulance driver.
and Frederick linn of Battle Creek.
Mich, an American aviator, both from
the French front on leave of absence.
According to Mr.. linn, aviators on the
western front now have taken on the
direction of infantry attacks, In addt-
ton to their other work of scouting
and range finding for artillery.
when an advance of infantry is now
ordered he said, "airplancs. flying at
height of about 1000 feet above the
advancing lines of men. keep in close
touch with the movement. and by means
of a new system of signaling, recently
from exceptional peril and toward weak
spots in the enemy line which can be
observed from the height. In other
words, the work of a general or col
cnel in directing an advance now de-
wolves on a lieutenant occupying an
observers seat in an airplane.
1T has been found that the system
of having aviators control movements
of infantry has resulted in remark
BILE lesSening of casualties, although
the aviators suffer as their flight is just
about in the line of enemy shells.

WANTS TO BE U. S. CITIZEN.
German Here Since 1853 Applies for
Final PaperS.

A German citizen, with four Ameri-
can sons of full age and married, to-
day applied to the District Supreme
Court for final naturalization papers.
The boys were all born in the United
States, where the father has lived since
1853, and were offered by the father
as witnesses of his qualifications for
American citizenship.
John Adlung, an engineer sixty-four
years old, and residing at 419 18th
street southeast, came to America in
1879 and after sixteen years deter
mined to be naturaliZed. He declared
his intention in Washington December
10, 1895, giving his birthplace as Wurt-
temberg, Bavaria, and the date Febru-
airy rs. 1888.
For twenty-one years the applca-
ton has slumbered, but the recent
break in diplomatic relations between
the United States and German recalled
the necessity of completing his natu-
radiation. The four sons who will tes-
tify to their fathers fitness for citi
Zenship are John .Adlung, Jr.; George

CHILE'S U-BOAT PROTEST
is PRESENTED AT BERLIN
Text of Note Identical With That
Handed German Envoy by Foreign
Minister at Santiago.

BERLIN. February IL. via wireless
to Sayville, February 15.-The Chilean
minister, DR.. Cruchaga, delivered today
to the foreign Office the note of the
Chilean government in reply to the Ger
man communication respecting the new
measures OF submarine war. The text
of the note, says the Overseas News
Agency, is identical with that pre-
scented by the Chilean foreign minister
few days ago to the German minister
at Santiago, and adds:
"The Chilean government protests,
but at the same time declares that 1t
reserves all rights pertaining to strict
neutrality. observed until now, and
which will be maintained also in the
future. German public opinion, con-
sfdering the f1rmness and independence
which always characterize the inter
nation policy of Chile, has good reason
to expect from this country an ex-
preston of unvarying neutrality. such
as is manifested in the note and which
corresponds to the traditional friendly
relations existing between the two
countries"
The reply of the Chilean government
to the German note on submarine war
fare as cabled from Santiago, Chile.
after declaring that such measure
amounts to a restriction of the rights
of neutrals, to which restrictions Chile
cannot agree" says:
THE acceptance by Chile Of the meas
ures adopted by Germany would. more
| over, divert her from the line of strict
neutrality, which has been followed
during the European conflict. Chile
consequently reserves liberty of action
| to protect all of her rights in the
event of any hostile acts against her
interests"
