Lastnight two hundred members of Chicago Commerce Association gathered at Congress Hotel Gold Room, to listen to Bruno Rosselli, an Italian officer who is in America to co-operate in the instruction of American recruits.

Rosselli, an elegant speaker, described the present military situation, illustrated by deeds in which he participated.

The orator said that to win the war it is necessary that the United States of America should rush adequate aid and troops immediately. He also said that the presence of the American soldier at the front would have a good effect on the morale of the allies.

He was applauded greatly.
