GENERAL BLISS
 URGES CHANGES
 IN BORDER PATROL
Matter of Withdrawal Is Bare ly Mentioned in Yesterdays Meeting of U. S.-Mexican Commissioners.
(By Review Leased Wirej

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Oct. H. Changes in plans suggested for border control as recommended by Major General Tasker H. Bliss, assistant cief of staff, were placed before the Mexican-American joint commission.
 While no definite action was taken, it was reported the Mexicans indicat- ed a willingness to listen to the gen erals suggestions for Improvement in the plans proposed.
 Specific discussion of the question Iof the withdrawal of the American troops from Chihuahua was not given a prominent place in the conference but both sides ahve tacitly admitted that the withdrawal of troops, i'm mediately or gradually, is dependent on the adoption of the more compde- hensive plan for the protection of life and property along the border.

HUGHES EXPLAINS
 HIS OPINION OF
 AMERICAN RIGHTS
Nominee Tells West Virgin ians Wilson Warred on Mexico, and Yet Kept Peace Without Honor.
(By Review Leased Wire.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Oct. H. Chas. E. Hughes, in his twelve hour campaign tour through West Virginia today, outlined before audiences his policy towards the maintenance Of American rights and declared that in stating his stands he had mo argu- ments with anybody" and recon mended to the United States as being for the world, great neutral nation, to vindicate the integrity of interna- tional law and the rights of neutrals."
 MT. Hughes reviewed American re- lations with Mexico since Huerta's time. The nominee declared that the administration policy had been one of intermittent war"
 When we summoned the entire na- tional guard to our borders, what kind was that, kind of peace or kind of war;" he asked. ''The judge advo- cate of the army has given his opin- ion that it was a kind of war. Now am not going into a recital of these kinds; I merely say this: That you might be willing to see anarchy, you might be willing to give our citizens and their property to the ravages ot military robbers; you might be will ing to see spasmodic and intellectual intervention; you may be able to do all that, but do not say that your poli- cy is a policy of peace when it has been a policy of intermittent peace without honor, and intermittent war without honor."
 What about the embargo on arms" shouted another man. Tell us about that"
 "Yes, I'll tell you about that" the nominee replied. "The administration put an embargo on arms, then took 1t off, then put it on again, then stopped it once more and arms were going to this bandit and that bandit with the result that the American soldiers slain in Mexico were slain with Amer ican bullets"
 Mir. Hughes left here at II p. m. for Kentucky.

MANY SHIPS ARE HELD UP BY FEAR
 OF GERMAN U-53
Reports That Warning Sub- marine Has Set Out for Home Disbelieved - Adri- atic Sails Today.
(By Review Leased Wire)

NEW YORK, Oct 11.-Although there was no news today to indicate that the German submarine U-53 was still lurking in the Atlantic sea lanes and while some shipping interests say she is headed for Helogoland there will be caution taken by all British steamers leaving Atlantic coast ports. Several vessels scheduled to sail to- day did not sail and it was reported many ships will not sail at present.
 It was declared today that Admiral Montague Browning, in command of the British fleet at Halifax, had issued orders detaining the British merchant vessels now in American ports until such time as it was deemed safe for them to depart
 A dozen other British ships, includ' ing the big White Star passenger liner Adriatic, got their clearance papers today but it was said that with the exception of the Adriatic the dates of their departure would depend upon developments.
 The Adriatic, White Star officials, said, will sail at noon tomorrow and prospective passengers have been notified. The continued absence of advices indicating additiona slubmar- ines along the coast, resulted in re- duction in marine insurance rates from the high mark quoted Monday.
 There was a strong tendency in naval circles today to believe that the U-53 is headed for home. This belief is founded on the knowledge that the cruising radius of the U53 class boats does not exceed 1000 miles.
