SENATE ADOPTS
COMPROMISED PLAN
FOR WAR INQUIRY
Substitute for Chamberlain
Resolution, Opposed by VIII
son, Permits Aircraft Probe.

WASHINGTON. May 2o.-with loss
than two minutes debate. the threat
cned breach between President VIII
son and tho Senate disappeared to-
day when by viva voce vote an
acceptable substitute was adopted in
place OF the Chamberlain resolution,
which the President contended was
nothing less than n proposal to con-
stitute tho Military Affairs Commit
tee n committee on the conduct OF
tho war.
Senator Chamberlain said the COM
promise was satisfactory to him, as 1t
authorized the Military Committee and
ub-committees to proceed, not only
with the aircraft and ordnance investl-
cations, but also to make any other In
quirios regarding army operations.
BY the adoption OF t. substitute a
vote on the original Chamberlain
resolution was avoided entirely Pres
ldent Wilson plainly told Senator'S he
considered such vote practically
qr- ton OF 4 vote Of confidence.
The substitute resolution does not
prevent an investigation OF the air
Graf: situation, to which the Presl-
dent has stated he has no objection
whatever. 1t meets the Presidents
objection that the original Chamber
lain resolution virtually proposed TO
| constitute n committee on the con-
duct OF the war and place with Con-
gress the executive duties now lodged
with the President and the other eN-
ccutive heads OF the Government,
The substitute provides that any
expenses incurred by the Committee
on Military Affairs .ndcr the pro
visions ~ Senate resolution As, here
tofore adopted, Including the expenses
Of employing assistants and travel
ing expenses shall he paid out of the
contingent fund Of the Senate"
In private discussion Of the Senate's
action to-day both sides appeared IN
clined to regard the outcome as VIC
tory. but all We're Eratitlcd that an
open breach had been avoided with
mutual satisfaction.
Senator Chamberlain announced he
hopcd soon TO announce the personnel
of the subcommittee which will con-
duct the aircraft and quartermaster'S
inquiries.

WOULD Be SUICIDE
FOR GERMAN FLEET

Rear Admiral Hollweg Says

LONDON. May II ASSOCIATED
Press) Suicide" is the word used
by the German naval authorities TO
describe what Il would mean for the
Kasers navy 10 attempt to interfere
with tho transport Of Allied troops
and munitions across the English
Channel
According TO German papers con-
siderable irritation has been caused
in Germany by the rapidity with
which England has been throwing
men into France. and criticism has
been directed at the Admiralty. In a
vigorous defense Rear Admiral Karl
Hollweg says the activity OF the Ger
many navy is subject to certain geo.
graphical limitations.
"A voluntary attempt to remove
these limitations" he argues. would
signify a heroic but useless suicide
for the German feet. The distance
from German harbors is too great for
the regular and frequent attacks
which alone would cause continuous
interruption OF Channel traffic. A
small German fleet cannot remain
long in the Channel, for submarines
and mines would reap a rich harvest
among II, and after being CT. of II
would be compelled to accept battle
with Overwhelming British fore. in
unfavorable circumstances"
Even German submarines, accord-
ing to their commanders, writes
Capt. Won Kuhlwetter in the Berlin
Lokal-Anzeiger, find that attacking
transports IS especially difficult In the
Channel.
Discussing U boat warfare possl-
bilities generally. he alludes to sug-
gestion made TO post submarines on
various Allied harbor entrances. The
idea, he says. rs impracticable," be-
cause there are not enough subma-
rlnes."

Continued from First rageJ

for pleading to the indictments on the
part OF the four men indicted under

court.
The attorneys served upon Justice
Goff a writ Of prohibition signed by
Presiding Justice Clark of the Appel
late Division. which prevented fur
ther prosecution of the defendants
Chllds. Reynolds and Sulzer, on the
ground that the creation OF the Ex-
traordinary Term by Gov. Whitman
on July 81 last was not legal. The
writ had been granted on the attor-
ncys' representation that the Gov
crnor had duly given to the Sun and
the Morning Telegraph the order OF
publication, but that the Telegraph
transgressed the legal requirements
OF publication.
The writ Of prohibition set May 81

indictments in the Fusion case should
not be set aside.

vision should set aside the indict-
ments against the Fusion workers
the same action will be taken on the
indictments brought against the -four
charged with conspiracy in the Sea
side Park lands case. These have al
pleaded not guilty.
As soon as he saw how the land
lay John J. O'Connell, counsel for
