However, nearer the American en-

parently satisfied at enjoying their
first peace in years and receiving
gold for labor and supplies.
The meager reports OF the expedi.

dence Of the official belief that the
danger of war with the United States
has passed, the employees OF govern
ment departments who were being
drilled for military service were to-
day ordered to discontinue their train
ing.
If the situation continues to I'm
prove, all other persons who volun-
teered for service against the United
States will be instructed to discon-
tinue training.
It is possible the Mexican reply to
the latest American note will be for
warded to Washington today. 1t is
understood 1t will contain a definite
proposal for the settling Of future
difficulties and the solution OF the
border problems. II this proposal is
not entirely satisfactory to the United
States, it is considered certain that
further interchanges between the two
governments will result in COM
pletely satisfactory agreement.

| WASHINGTON, July 11.-Great
Britain and France will do everything
in their power to prevent the. United
| States recognizing the snper-subma-
rine Deutschland as a ship of COM
merce, and to prevent the operation
[ Of a line of submarine freight carriers
proposed by the North German Lloyd
| Steamship company. This was ad-
mftted at the embassies Of the two
governments today.
The British embassy today correct
ed published reports that 1t was not
actively trying to oppose the peace
submarine, the embassy said. is
potentially warship and any ship at
sea would be unable to determine
until too late to save itself whether
a submarine was armed. This fact
alone would prevent recognition Of a
submarine as a possible merchant
man, according to the embassy's view.
These facts, 1t was learned, have
been pointed out to acting Secretary
Polk by Counsellor Barcley, acting
charge of the embassy.
| Questions not only Of the Deutsch-
land status as warship or a mer-
chantmen, but as to her cargo and
the cargo she. will take back to Ger
many with her are to be taken up by
the embassy with the state depart
ment.
The fact that the Deutschland's
thome- going cargo is expected to con-
tain nickel alone may cause a num-
Der OF complications, 1t was learned.
This may cause sweeping embargoes
on any sort Of goods from Canada or
Great Britain to this country which
might be exported to Germany by the
Deutschland or other submarines
which are reported on their way to
the United States. Ninety percent of
the nickel used in this country comes
