HUNS SUPPRESS U-B0AT LOSSES IN HOME PORTS
(ASsociated pressp


 GENEVA, Feb. 16.-"Every effort | is being made by the German ad miralty to conceal the real subma- rine losses from the personnel of the navy" declared a noted Swiss engineer who returned today from an extended stay at Kiel. This is done because of the increasing diff. culty which is being experienced in mastering submarine crews"
 The engineer declares that during the time he was in Kiel the Ger mans lost at least ona-third of their effective submarines through the al lied anti=submarine campaign He also said that the depth bomb that is being used by the allied fleets is very effective and is greatly feared by all submarine crews and com manders.
 He declares that there have been at least two more serious mutinies at Kiel during 1917 than were re- ported and which the world knows nothing of at all. According to him, it is becoming increasingly danger ous for submarines to enter the zones which are being patrolled by the allied fleets.

SENATE LEADER
 URGES PASSAGE
 RAILROAD BILL
Associated Presss


 WASHINGTON. D. C.. Feb. 16.- The majority leader, Senator Mar tin, today informed the senate that Director General McAdoo is greatly embarrassed in his handling of the railroads of the country because of the lack of necessary legislation. He stated that it was imperative foI the best interests of the country that this legislation be enacted with. out further delay, and asked consent to bring 1t up at an early date.
 Despite the requests of the admin istration for haste in the action on the railroad legislation, it has been held up for weeks in the committee room and much valuable time has been wasted, during which addition al equipment badly needed could have been ordered and part of it already secured if the money asked for had been made available.
 There is some uncertainty as to when the measure will be passed. The Republicans are showing a ten. dency to want to discuss it thor oughly before it is passed, fearing that the Democrats will fail to in clude specific time for turning the roads back to their owners. They are attempting to force clause providing this, and it is believed that MT. McAdoo desires this phase to be left for a later decision, as he has declared that time for more comprehensive set of laws for the regulation of roads under private control must be granted after the war before the roads will again be placed In the hands of their owners
 The moderation in weather condi- ,fonS tlrosghout all sections of tn, country has relieved the freight con gestion to small degree, but it cannot be fully relieved until more motive power and rolling stock can be purchased. This cannot be done until congress passes the railroad legislation. Every day this is de layed is costing the country mil lions of dollars and putting it be- hind in it's war preparations.

GREAT NUMBER ENEMY ALIEE,S
 UNREGISTERED
Associated PressI

WASHINGTON. D. C., Feb. 16.-- From the complete figures obtained it now is definitely known that thou. sands of unnaturalized Germans re siding in America have failed to register themselves in accordance with the regulations. The depart ment of justice announced tonight that all those who failed to register before the close of the registration period ending last Wednesday night are now subject to confinement in internment camps until the end of the war.
 It is believed that many of those who did not comply with the regis. tration orders failed through misun. derstanding of the requirements. Al though the government endeavored to make the requirements plain enough for everyone, reports receiv- ed show many did not understand the provisions.
 The department, however, is con vinced that -a-great portion of those who failed to register did so inten. tionally. and will take active steps to apprehend them and put them where they can be kept from ham pering the government in it's war preparations. When this class ha been cleaned up, the spy menace to the country will have been re- duced considerably.
