dit" declared Gen. Plutarco Elias Gales,
governor of Sonora, in an interview given
to a representative of the International
News Service this afternoon.
Gen. Gales pronounced the rumors of a
revolt of soldiers in the camp at Ca.
bullona to be absolutely false. Asked ii
he would oppose the entrance of Ameri-
can soldiers into Sonora territory If Villa
should fee into Sonora, Gen. Gales said
That is a contingency that will not
arise. We have 5000 soldiers in Sonora,
and the passes on the eastern boundary
are well guarded. II Villa and his entire
band come into the state We will capture
him. If by any chance he should be pur-
sued into Sonora by the American SOL

If the first chief issues other orders to
meet conditions, will obey as a loyal
soldier"

AWAIT BERLIN
SUB DEBATE
Officials Here Believe Ger
many Will Abide by Deci-
sion of Reichstag.
KAISER AND MILITARY PARTY
EXPECTED TO MOLD OPINION
Washington Eagerly Looks Forward
to Discussion of Controversy in
Teuton Chamber.

The news from Berlin that the SUBJ
marine controversy with the United
States is to be threshed out next week
in the Reichstag overshadowed every
other phase of the submarine issue in
official circles today.
It is fully believed that Germany
will yield to OF defy the United States
according TO the Reistags decision. To
what extent this decision will he
moulded by the Kaiser and the mill
tary party remains a matter OF the
most animated diplomatic discussion,
though the consensus OF well-inrorm-
ed opinion is that the Kaiser's wishes
will dominate the situation.
In support of this prediction dipIo-
mats say that even in times of peace
the military party has invariably pre-
vailed in the Reichstag whenever any
question affecting the safety of the
empire was at stake.
No secret is made of the fact that
the British have to great extent
bottled UP Won Tirpitz's raiders and
there has been keen disappointment in
Berlin over the fact that no single
transport carrying troops or supplies
to and from France has been inter
ferred with by German submarines.
The German newspapers predicted
something over a year ago that subma-
rines would raise havoc with this trans
port service and completely isolate Eng
land and France. But the construction
of a remarkably contrived boom across
the channel has acted like a mosquito
netting, and the only submarines that
attempted to pass through were inter
cepted as soon as they ran foul of the
special electrical contrivances which are
there to give the alarm.
The average German feels that the
United States government has about as
much right to tell Germany how to con-
duct her submarine warfare as the Ger
man Emperor has to choose the next
Presidential candidates here.
The idea, it is explained. appears so
preposterous to Germans that even the
usually well-informed editors OF Berlin
newspap ers credit reports that President
Wilson and Great Britain have formed a
secret alliance.

BIG NAVY MEN

REAR ADMIRAL BENSON &.
BEFORE HOUSE COMMITTEE
Declares if War Depletcs Foreign
Fleets Sufficiently. This Country
=. May Fare Much Better.

Members OF the House Naval Affairs
Committee who have been wrestling with
the proposal to make the United States
the second greatest naval power in the
world were somewhat disconnected yes
terday by the testimony of Rear Admiral
w. S. Benson, Chief OF Naval Operations.
who said that the administration's pro-
gram probably would leave the United
States in fourth place in 1925.
There has been much discussion in the
of the United States. whether it is third
or fourth. and what would be necessary
to put it in second or even first place in
1875.
The General Board has recommended
the adoption Of a policy to give the coun-
try the most powerful navy in the world
by 1925. Asa member OF the board. Ad-
miraI Benson said he agreed with this
policy.
He explained his advocacy of the adj
ministrations sixteen-ship program on
the ground that It was as much as could
be expected from Congress and with an
eye to conserving the finances of the ma
ton. For. this lie was commended by
Representative oliver. Of Alabama.
Admiral Benson explained that if the
foreign navies were depleted sufficiently
by the war. the United States might nope
to reach the second or first place with nut
effort. He added. however. that the large
additions European countries are MAX
ing to their fleets did not make this prob
able.
Admiral Benson took issue with Rear
Admiral W. S Grant, who is in charge of
submarines. by saying that all boats of
this type should be smaller than the three
S0o-ton boats now building Instead of
fleet submarines he suggested that the
committee authorize coast vessels.
The Marine Corps. Admiral Benson told
the committee. had been developed to as
high state of efficiency as possible.

COPIES CAPTURED BY GERMANS
Won Bernstorf Argues That British
Ships Are Armed for Ofense and
Do Not Deserve Protection.

The State Department made public yes
terday copies of the secret orders"
which the German government claims
were given by the British admiralty TO
British sailing masters. instructing thea
to attack German submarines.
The orders were communicated to the
department by Count Won Bernstorff, the
German Ambassador. in support of his
governments contention that British
armed passenger or merchant ships are
armed for e6ense, and therefore not en-
titled to the special protection accorded
to unarmed merchantmen.

The secret orders" marked "confden-
ral" and bearing the warning that they
must under no circumstances be allowed
to fall into the hands Of the enemy, are
alleged to have been found on the Eng
lish steamer woodneld, captured by the
Germans.
The German government contends that
they have a direct and important bear
ing on the question Of armed merchant
ships and show that all British armed
ships are playing the role of warships.
The point is emphasized by Germany
that President Wilson's claim for i'm
nunity for ships armed for defense
only" cannot apply to British ships at all
II It is proved that the British admiralty
orders them to attack submarines.
No comment was made at the State De-
partment with reference to the German
communication. Acting Secretary of State
Polk explained that the Uilted States
was simply making public a communica-
ton it had received from Berlin. What
ever bearing 1t will have on the armed
ship issue or the submarine controversy
with the central powers is not disclosed.
No Longer Are In Eject.
At the British Embassy 1t was said that
the admiralty alone would be in a posi-
ton to refute or discuss the alleged
secret orders" Officials in touch with
the British government understand, how
ever. that these admiralty orders applied
