BULL FIGHTING IS ABOLISHED
 BY CARRANZA
Republican A. p. Leased Wlrel

FL PASo. Texas. Nov. 12.-General Carranza's edict abolishing bull fight Ing throughout the republic has served to revive the more typical Mexican sports in which the bull suffers little and comes out alive. These sports, formerly seen only at holiday times on the great ranches, now entertain the people of the northern towns and cities as Sunday afternoon pastime.
 In JuareZ, the "jaripeo," or roping contest, is a curious mixture of the bull fight and a wild west show. It is held in the bull ring with a band play ing the sprightly Spanish airs so pop ular at the fights. The events are divided into 'suertes," or acts an nounced by the bugle. much as is done in the regular bull fights.
 The first event takes place when a bugle cuts into the music of the band and the gate swings open for the parade of the troops. But instead of the procession of the fighters in bright costume, four abreast headed by the knight in black who demands from the president the keys to the bull Den. and followed by the horses of sacrifice and the mules to drag off the carcasses. there march out clowns Tn calico uni forms stuffed with hay. The clowns, wearing comic false faces and the huge sombrerOs of the peons, are stuffed so out Of proportion that they can hardly walk. They salute the president of the light and the crowd, mocking the man. ners of the toreadors.
 A bugle blast then announces the Dull, which rushes out and after dodg- ing past capes. manages to horn and toss up clown, who comes down in a torn uniform and q pile of his own hay, while the audience roars with laughter. The other events are done by Mex lcan cowboys, who show their skill with fancy throws of the lariat Bulls are not the only victims at the roping. Vlng and riding game. as wild broncos have to serve their turn When a bull IS ridden, rope is made fast around his lore quarters, as his hide is toe loose and slippery to hold on to. A ouli can put up quite as good an exhi- bition of bucking as any of the ponies In e~Mexican point of view the l ropins contest is rather a tame sub stltute for the bull fight. Baseball , proposed as another substitute among | boys, but at present it does not ap- pear likely to take soon popular hold At best, 1t is an imported sport.

 BERLIN, Saturday, Nov. II. by wireless to the Associated Press vla Sayrille, x. Y.,) Nov 12.-The official report of the commander of the Ger man submarine which sank the Brit isl steamer Rowanmore, on which there were several Americans, says the Rowanmore "disregarded the submarines signal to halt, making it necessary for the submarine to fire a few shots in order to bring her to us. The Americans on board, as far as can be learned. consisted of sev- eral negro firemen."
 No report has been received on the case of the British steamship Marina, which, with 52 Americans in the crew, was sunk by submarine off the British coast. lnasmuch as she was sunk or the same day as was the Rowanmore, a report is expected soon. Three other cases of the sink trno fkf e.tc t,ft ,lk mitted by the American embassy to the foreign office These vessels were destroyed in September No evidence was presented in this connec- tiOn to indicate that Germany's as- suIances in regard to the conduct of submarine warfare have not been ob- served

 Six Americans on tho Marina. which was armed with a 4.7 inch gun, lost their lives. American survivors said under oath that the vessel was tor pedoed without warning.

Hope for Aqreement

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Nov. 12- Hope that an agreement on the pro- gram for the restoration of amicable relations between Mexico and the Unit ed States might be reached by the Mexican American joint commission this week was revived by conference today at Philadelphia between Luis Cabrera, chairman of the Mexican com mission. and Rafael Nieto, sub-secre- tary of the diplomatic corps of Mexico.
 It is believed that an agreement by the commissioners for border control may have the effect or securing a loan for the Carranza government, although it may be small This money it is be-
 lieved by those identified with the American commission, will place Gen eral Carranza in a position to pay his troops and enable him to conduct a more vigorous and effective campaign against the rebel leaders now threat ening the continuation of his power.
