CABRERA MAY UPSET
PLANS OF CONFEREES
Attitude of Chairman of Mexican
Delegation on Border Control
Agreement Anxiously Awaited.

Atlantic City,, Nov. 16.-Interest
in the sessions Of the Mexican
American joint commission today was
in learning what would be the atti-
tude of Luis Cabrera, chairman Of the
Mexican commission. During his alb
sence at Philadelphia, Ignacio Bonil-
las and Alberto J. PAM, the other
Mexican representatives, virtually
agreed with the American commits
sion on the essential points of plan
Of border control. They expected
confidence of the support of Mr..
Cabrera Notwithstanding the opposi-
ton offered by him on Tuesday, the
last time he appeared in the confer
ence.
Their optimism, however, was not
shared by all those in touch with the
conferees early today. BY a few Of
them it was regarded as not improb
able that Mr.. Cabrera might stand
in the way Of agreement again al
though all preparations have been
made for reducing the plan to writ
ing, and Mr.. Bonillas and Mr.. PAM
appeared confident another hitch
would be avoided.

Submarine Captain Purposely Re-

DID NOT SHELL SMALL BOATS
Took Special Pains Not to Injure Men,

Aiming All Shots at Stern Of Ship

Associated Press, via Sayville, Nov. 16.
Assertions that the German subma-
rine which sank the British ship
Rowanmore, on which their were sew
eral Americans, fired upon life boats
containing members of the crew are
port Of the commander Of the SUBJ
marine, further details of which be-
came known today. On the contrary,
it is said the men on the Rowanmore
owe their lives to the precautions talk
en- by the Germans and the skill with
which their operations were carried
out. During the twenty minute pur-
suit Of the ship, the submarines shots
were aimed accurately astern to limit
the danger to the crew, which was
congregated at the bow. The Rowan
more was hit ten times, the last shell
disabling her propeller.
No Shots at Small Boats.
The submarine ceased firing, the
report continues Immediately it was
observed that the Rowanmore had
abandoned the effort to escape. No
shots were fired at the men in the
boats. Just before she stopped the
RoWanmOre hoisted a signal, but it
was impossible to read it from the
submarine, at that time about 1000
yards away. Later it was shown that
the signal was Il surrender
Captain Made Prisoner.
The master of the RoWanmore at
tempted to Justify his attempt to es-
cape, the submarine commander re-
ports by the assertion that he de-
sired to gain time to launch boats,
but the pretext was not accepted.
Later the Rowanmore's captain was
made a prisoner of war for attempt
ing to escape and for SUNNI ning as
Slstance by wireless, which speedily
brought up British DESTROYER.
Thereupon the Rowanmore was sunk
by a torpedo.
There were two white Americans
and five Filipinos in the crew of the

Last month the American govern
ment made an informal request to the

in regard to the Rowanmore case
