 Carranza holds that his govern ment is doing all it can to restore or der in the north and that it wil con- tinue to do so, but that the presence of the American troops on Mexican soil is making the task more difficult by giving Villa and his lieutenants d preteM for urging the disafiected io join him in his fight against Car,an- ga
 The failure of Carranza flatly to re- pudiate the protocol made it appear today that the Americans would give ais c0mmulication due consideration and that the next meeting of the joint commission might be but the first Of a series at which would be continued the efforts To fleet a solution of the different problems.
 An interesting development in the Mexican situation generally was pre- scented today in reports to the state and wa departments of the changing conditions in Mexico. When the com mssioners adjourned in Atlantic City
 there were few administration off cials who believed that Carranza s power was seriously menaced. Since
 then official reports have shown a strength in the different reactionary groups that now is recognized as dan gerOus.
 The report persisted today that Am bassador Designate Arrendondo had been recalled by his government and that he was to be succeeded by Cln- sul De Negri of San Francisco. who
 would be in charge without diplo- matic rank. Mir. Arrendondo denied the story categorically and the state de- partment was without information.

 OF SUBMARINE COMMANDER
BRITISH ADMIRALTY CHARGES HE DELIBERATELY SHOT MEN ESCAPING FROM SINK
 ING SHIP.

London, Dee. 2S.-The admiralty following statement concerning the sinking of the British steamer West inster, which was reported lost on December IS:
 The degree of savagery the Ger. mans have attained in their subma- rine policy appears to have reached a climax i1 the sinking of the West inster, which was proceeding from Torre AnnnnZiatato Port Said in bal last. On December l4, when 1S0 miles from the nearest land, the Westminster was attacked by German submarine without warning and was struck by two torpedoes in quick succession, which killed four men, The Westins- ter sank in four minutes.
 This ruthless disregard for the rules of international law was follow ed by deliberate attempt to murd- CT the survivors. The officers and crew, while effecting their escape in boats, were shelled by the submarine at range of 5000 yards. The master and chief engineer were killed out right. Their boat was sunk. The sec. ond and third engineers were not picked up; it is presumed they were drowned
 "The captain of the submarine must have satisfied himself of the effec. tiveness of his two torpedoes. yet he proceeded to carry out in cold blood an act of murder which could not possible be justified by any urg- ency of war and can only be regarded in the eyes of the world as a further proof Of the desradation of German hanor and morale"

When Spring Comes
to The Trees

How the soft NAPLES are glowing
in AIRED mist along the moist, low
places. and the alder, birch, and will
low catkins are swinging and send
ing their pollen af1oat with every
breeze: We watch the advance of
spring among the wild flowers-in
New England we used to hunt the
shy arbutus under the snow of
March see the tiny, fuzzy-stemmed
hepatieas and their many friends, fol
low the waking of old garden famili-
ars, bit easily overlook the flowers
that the trees hang out to decorate
their hare twigs. Those of the ma
plies ard the elms soon give place to
the winged seed aeroplanes that float
off to start new colonies. None of
the trees bears more interesting
flowers than the sturdy family of
oaks. They hang out their blossoms
from the end of the twigs like
fringe of old lace.
Thes flowers of the tulip, which
blooms rather late, standing up at
the tips of the branches are like min
iatureS of those that Henry van Dyke
celebrated in his charming verses,
When Tulips :. Bloom in Union

gay cuTor in one of the most sordid
of city squares. Among the early
tree flowers those of the dogwood
shine among the bare branches like
newly fallen snow, and the horse
chestnuts look like belated Christ
mas trees with all the candles
lighted.
Following the flowers come the
leaves with a surprising suddenness,
and one of the marvels of the year
is the way the youngsters are hidden
away in the buds. Open carefully a
bud of the tulip-tree or horse-chest-
nut, unfold the tiny leaves, and no.
tice how wonderfully they are pack
ed away. Try the same experiment
with the ailanthus or shag-bark hick-
DRY. How beautifully they are col
ored as they first break out of winter
quarters-delicate tones of green,
varied with re dand pink. Nature is
rich and wonderful in design and her
palette is limited by no formulas
