In response to energetic protests by
the United states Government. Gen
eral Carranza has lifted General Obre-
gon's decree imposing a tax on the
capital of Americans and other foreign
ers invested in Mexico City. Unofficial
reports Of Carranza's action reached
the state Department today. relieving
the delicate situation brought about by
the diplomatic protests lodged with this
Government by representatives of Eu-
ropean powers IN behalf Of their ma
tionals in the Mexican capital.
When notification reached Mexico
City that Carranza had lifted Obre-
son's Decree according to unofficial
advices received here, American mer-
chants opened a campaign for the sub
scription OF voluntary contributions
from business interests to relieve the
famine situation In the Mexican capital

Report That Britain viii Rule
Against Food and Cotton
Stirs No Surprise.

Great Britain's reported determinat ton
70 declare cotton and foodstuffs contra
band as measures Of reprisal against
Germans war zone order was received
in official circles today without sur
prise.
Such a course. it was stated, doubt
less would open the way for further
negotiations with the London authori-
ties.
Unofficial advices announcing that
England, after consulting her allies,
practically had decided to reject the
American proposals aimed to end the
war zone difficulties, bore out the belief
that prevailed generally among the
diplomats here.
The latter today gave their attention
to the possible turn the new negotia-
tions would take. but the Administra>
tion still gave no indication as to it's
next move.
It was stated that there would be
nothing to discuss for publication until
been presented officially to this Govern
ment.
Would Destroy All Mines.
United States proposed to England and
Germany that all floating mines be
removed except those used to protest
pilots be supplied. to neutral ships in
such waters.
It also was suggested that Germany
ana Great Britain do not alter inter-
national law as it applies to the ship
inent by neutrals OF conditional contra
band to the civil population OF an
enemy country. A system Is proposed
TO furnish proof that such supplies will
not reach the fghting forces Of the
helligerents.
Official Washington, meanwhile. has
not lost sight Of tho grave possibilities
In the situation. and the danger Of
further disaster to American ships such
as that which bcfell the Carib and the
Evelyn: furnishes the leading topic for
discussion.
No Secret Agreement.
One nigh official disclaimed knowledge
today of any secret German agreement
to protect American commerce from
German submarines, but he felt that
extreme care will be exercised by Ger
man commanders. and he held that there
Will be no difficulty, except at night in
recosnizing American ships.
.tHrs.. he pointed ont that recent ship de-
numerous than before the death zone
was created, but public attention turn
cd on naval warfare, he felt, had en-
pnasized the Importance Of these cases.
Talk of an American foodstuffs em-
barge continues. That the subject
may have come up for Cabinet cons i'd
Grafton informally was indicated to-
day by reticence of one official, who.
under ordinary circumstances, would
issue a denial If no such discussion
had occurred.
That the subject has not crystallized
is certain, however. and there were
strong indications today that the sfep
will not be taken except in extreme
emergency.

 New York, Jan. 2S.-A shortage of 76,000 tons of food for the relief of Belgian refugees must be made up within the next three months by the commission for relief in Belgium or many people will perish, Vice Chair man Landon w. Bates announced yesterday to relief committees throughout the United States The commission here was appraised of the inadequacy of the food supply by a cable message from London, which reads:
 ''The commission is actually short in the department for the feeling of destitute Belgians, 21,0OO tons for February, 25,00O tons for March and 3O,O00 tons for April. The enforced transfer of food from the department for provisioning those who can still pay something for rations during the months Is found to eat into our pro- visional capital seriously.

Columbia, $. C., Jan. 2S.-Governor Richard Irvine Manning, the new ex- ecutive who succeeds Cole L. Blease, is making plans to change many of the things that Governor Blease's adical methods resulted in. For one thing. he will restore the state militia along government lines. He has no desire to fill the state penitentiary, but he wants to see criminals kept behind the bars in accordance with a proper interpretation of the law, tempered with a proper interpreta- tion of mercy. Blease made a sen sational name for himself by pardon ing hundreds of convicts Manning was elected as an anti -BIease man, and he Is in every way different from Blease. Governor Manning stu died in the public schools of Sum tr county and later in Virginia. Ow- Ing to poor eyesight he had to give up the study of law. He entered state politics in 1892 when he was thirty-three years old. He was a candidate for governor in 1905, but was defeated
