motives of Governor Ferguson or of
anybody else.

Washington. July 2.-The British
owned steamship Armenian of the
Leyland line was torpedoed and sunk
by the German submarine U-38 20
miles west of Trevose head, Cornwall,
England, on Tuesday night, and a
number of Americans were lost. The
information came in dispatches to the
state department.
The official count says that 20 men
were lost and ten injured and gives a
Use of American citizens, white and
colored, who were crossing with the
ship.
The Armenian sailed from Newport
News June II with a cargo Of horses
consigned to Avonmouth, west coast
of England, for the English army.
The facts in the case as obtained
from Consul Armstrong at Bristol and
all the information obtainable here as
to the character of the vessel were
telegraphed to the president at Corn
ish, N. H.
State department officials do not re-
gard the information now at hand as
sufficient on which to express an opin-
ion and especially on which to make
intelligent representations to Ger
many. The department therefore
cabled to Ambassador Page to send
on at once all the details he could
secure.
The main point in the case of the
Armenian is whether she is an actual
member of the British navy as a troop
ship or horse ship. She could be such,
either by having been taken over by
the government itself for that purpose
or by the government itself having
chartered the ship, and therefore max

She was laden with transport anil

achievement with his life. He re-

While the crew was largely British,
Americans and Canadians were in
charge of the cargo of horses.
The attack on the Anglo-Californian
began almost twenty-four hours be-
fore she reached port and continued
four hours. The submarine signaled
command or her to lay to. In
stead, the captain gave the order full
steam ahead, and the most dramatic
struggle of the submarine blockade of
the United Kingdom was on.

Under his dominance the country was
an inviting spot for American capital
an invasion which he encouraged with
the wisdom of statesman and true

Oaxaca September Is, 1880. His
mother was an Indian and his father
was of old Spanish lineage. The IA

years old, and he was educated at the
expense of the bishop of Oaxaca. He
intended to become priest, but
when the war with the United States
broke out he enlisted, at the age OF
sixteen.
At time when defeat meant death
young Diaz cast his lot with Juarez
in the revolution which in 1854
brought about the downfall of Santa

His study of military science stood
him well, and his campaigns were a
succession of victories until, in 1875.
he marched into the City of Mexico

Assuming the presidency again in
