Berlin newspapers indicate that the
basis Of new treaty of alliance
agreed upon at the recent conference

direction and basis Of the new treaty
were definitely fixed and that it only
remains to frame the different
clauses.

AMERICAN FLYERS ACTIVE.
Tell of Recent Successful Flights and
Air flights.

With the American Army in
France, May 16.-Capt. David Peter
son, Of Honesdale, Pa, and Capt.
Kenneth Mari, California, the heroes
in the aerial battle Wednesday, in
which Capt. Peterson brought down
two German monoplanes and Capt.
MARI destroyed an enemy biplane in
the Toul sector, related their stories
OF the battle to-day.
81 was flying near Thiacourt, at an
altitude Of 5000 meters" said Capt.
Peterson, "when | saw two German
Albatross scouts going away at right
angles in the distance. One Mas
ahead Of the other. | ascended 200
meters higher, circled and stopped
my engine and darted after them. l
finally got close to the last plane.
At distance Of 100 yards | opened
fire with incendiary bullets and the
German machine almost Immediately
burst into flames and fell.
Il continued straight on my
course" he continued, "and within
two minutes had the other enemy
machine before me. He started a
quick dive, but l am certain that
some Of the bullets went home. One
; Of the wings Of his machine crum-
, pied up at the same moment. AS
circled about | saw one machine
burning on the ground and the other
close to the earth. That is all there
is to 1t. 1t was cinch."
Capt. Mari was flying at an alti-
tude Of 1000 meters when he saw an
enemy MACHINE over the American
: lines
"As I sailed out I saw him far
away, circling out from our line
amid cloud Of puff balls from our
'archies,"' he said. 81 circled out
wider and finally passed the German
and turned again down our line,
between the enemy and the sun.
Both OF us had the sun at our backs.
"As ! opened up my motor and
approached nearer" he said, II saw
that had a two-seater to deal with.
: thought that the German might see
me or hear my motor, so | went a
hundred meters lower until right un-
der the tail Of his machine. Then l
pointed the nose Of my airplane up
ward and went on a level with the
enemy and opened fire at him at
pOllIDlanK- range.
| "The German never knew / was
there until incendiary bullets, alter
mating with ordinary missiles, began
pattering through his machine. After
! twenty shots his machine toppled. l
must have got lucky shot home on
the pilot, for the machine went
down, wavering through the air like
leaf falling from a tree. l saw the
observer standing up in the machine
trying to get his machine gun to
bear OH me, first from one side and
then from the other.
81 certainly felt sorry for the help
less beggar. There he was, dashing
to certain death, but to the last
gamely trying to give me n fight"
Capt. Peterson and Capt MARI
were standing on their flying field
at daybreak this morning as they
spoke. 1t was perfect day for fly
ing and they were about to leave for
patrol over the enemy lines. AS
they stepped in to their machines,
Capt. Mari said:
We'll. we're Off again. Maybe
we will get some more. Maybe they
will get us. Anyway, it's a fine day
for 1t. SO long"
The motors started and the two
! airplanes, together with several other
machines took the air and disappear
ed toward the front.

The submarines operating in the
west Atlantic have sunk several more
neutral vessels, but there is reason to
believe that one or two of them have
been destroyed in encounters with
armed steamers. Venezuelan jour
nalist who was driven from Caracas
admits there are German U-boat
bases in Venezuela. The raids off the
American coast are declared by
American naval headquarters In Eng
land to mean that the submarine cam
paign is a failure, the enemy's only
chance of employing the limited num-
Der of his U-boats successfully being
to concentrate their operations on
the focal points of allied trade. 1t

Word was received that the Turks
on June IA occupied and looted
Tabriz. the second city of Persia, took
possession Of the American and Brit
ish consulates there over the protests
of the Spanish consul who was in
charge of Them and sacked the Amer
lean hospital, over which the Spanish
flag was flying. If the report is veri-
fed, Turkey has committed an act Of
war against the United States, and q
declaration of war by this country
against the Porte may be the result.
Many senators and representatives
have favored such action for a long
time and their position Is strengthened
by the recent occurrence. The formal
inclusion Of Bulgaria also among our
enemies probably would follow imme-
diately. Thus would come to an end
the incongruous state of affairs which
has permitted the Turkish and Bull
garian diplomats to remain in this
country free to gather such informa-
tion as they could and transmit 1t to
their allies and our &hemles. The
well Informed have given up the hope
that Turkey might be induced to with
draw from the war, since she has
been given part of the spells of Rus
sia.
