BOSTON & MAINE R. R.
 SAVED FROM BANKRUPTCY,
Holders of Notes Grant an Exten-
 sion of Time.

Boston, Jan. 16.-An agreement by a majority of the holders of S10,o0o, 900 of the notes of the Boston & Maine railroad, due on February 3, to an ex- tension for four months was announc- ed here today. Directors of the com pany hope that the minority holders will make the same concessions. In any event, they say that the action of the majority has saved the company from possible bankruptcy or a. receiv- ership, for the time being at least.
 With $17, ,000,00 in notes coming due on June 2. the company will have to take care of the entire $27, 7,00o, 900 on that dake, but officials are hopeful that the balance sheet will then show irn- prove1nent sufficient to encourage bankers to enter some sort of gen. eral' refunding plan-
 At the time of the issue of $10000,- 900 of notes in February, 1918, they were a legal investment in this state, as the company was paying dividends, but when notes to ths Amount of ST., 900. 900 were issued four months later dividends had ceased
 The stock dropped until it reached S5 the lowest in Its history, and talk of a receivership was rife in financial circles
 Within the last few days it was de- ternlined to ask the holders of the February notes to extend them, on the ground that by such action the. notes would still continue to be legal.
 Plan for Financial Reorganization.
 New fork. Jan. 16.-J P Morgan and company who in conjunction with the Boston bankers are negotiating with the Boston and Maine note hold CTS, declined to give any outline of their plans today, but it was under stood that some time before the ma turity of the S17, coco note issue of the Boston and Maine comprehensive plan for the complete overhauling and reorganization of the roads finances will have been formulated. Whether or not the proposed plans will em- body the bill recently introduced in the Massachusetts legislature appro- priating s35,000. 900 for the stock con- trol of Boston and Maine by that com monwealth could not be learned.

"A7' are trapped tonight in their craft beneath the waters of White Sand bay, about five miles southwest of Plymouth. Whether the men are dead navy officials here expressed the opin- ion tonight that all had perished- The exact spot where the little vessel sank has not been definitely fixed.
 The "A7' in company with the "As" and Az made a plunge about noon today while engaged in manoeuvres. Her sister ships came to the surface at the end of the manoeuvres but nothing has been seen of the "A7'' since she dived. At first the men on the other submarines believed that the FAT" was merely overrtaying her when the officers realized that the boat was in distress they sent out signals for aid.
 Bay Dragged in Vain.
 Rescue boats were immediately rushed to the vicinity where the "A7'' went down. They dragged the bay without avail until darkness set in
 The grappling operations will begin again at daylight tomorrow and, in the hope that the submarine will be found. boat capable of lifting her to the surface has been ordered to White Sand bay.
 The FAT" was in charge of Lieuten- ant Gilbert M. Wellman, wfao had as an aide another officer. number of the seamen aboard were making their first trip in a submarine.
 The cause of the accident-is not known.
 Naval officers estimate that in case the vessels hull has not been pune tured the men on board her might live at least twelve hours beneath the wa ter.
 This is the sixth submarine of class "A'' which has come to grief and the question is being raised here whether the government ought not to abandon this type of boat in favor of the more modern vessels of the ~C' and "D'' classes, The AT was built in 1904 and measured 150 feet in length. Her submerged displacement was 20< tons. Her engines developed 500 horsepower which gave her q surface speed of Is knots and submerged speed of nine knots.
 Other Submarine Disasters.
 Of the class "A' submarines which have caused the British government grievous losses in men through acci- dents were the .A1' wrecked in 1904, on board which twelve men were drowned: the AS" in 1905. with a loss of four lives; the stAS" in 1906 when 15 men perished and the "A3'' m 1912, when Il officers and seamen went. to their doom.
 The "A" class submarines. however, do not rank alone in disasters, for the "C8'' was lost in 1907 with four men, the "C11r in 1909 with tiiiP- teen men and the s'B2" the same year with fifteen.

Federal General at Acapulco is Under
 Suspicion.

Washington, Jan. 16.-With financial troubles and aggressive rebel armies to cope with, the Huerta government in Mexico City is n7enaced by a new discovery, according to official reports reaching Washington today from Mex ico City. These reports said much alarm has been caused in government circles by suspicious circumstances growing out Of the failure of the fed era1 campaign in the neighborhood of Acapulco
 The federal garrison at this import. ant port under the command of Gen eral Marisca1, is said to have shown itself strangely apathetfc in the pres ence of very active and alert enemy in the person of General Blanco, the constitutional leader. Repeated in structions from the war minister in tte Mexican capital to General Marfscal to Institute an active campaign against guh to appear in great numbers inland any effect and talk of warm friend ship existing between Mariscal and Blanco has led to an investigation of General MariscaFs loyalty
 The situation is regarded as of great ifnpnrtaace, in view of the fact that aside from Safi1la Grub, Acapulco is now practically the only port on the Pacific with reliable railroad connec- tions with the capital in the posses sion of the federa1s. It's loss to them might make It impossible for the rifles and ammunition and other military supplies contracted for in Japan early last year 10 reach the federal arsenals when they are most needed.
