NEW AGITATION
FOR AN EMBARGO
Action Sure to Follow Great
Britain'S Prohibition of
Imported LuxurieS.
International News Service:

International News Service:
WASHINGTON. March IS. - Re-
newal of the agitation for an en-
barge on munitions is certain to fol-
low the expected action of Great
Britain in prohibiting imports of
articles that are to be placed under
the head of ''luxuries'' These will
include hundreds of articles of
American origin or manufacture.
Inasmuch as the expected order IS
to be made to apply TO all countries,
officials say there Will be no ground
for any official protest by the United
States. But it is expected that the
opposition will be reflected by an
other attempt to secure congressional
action through embargo legislation.
The feeling against the British
trade interference. which has been
held in check because of the de-
velopments in the submarine con-
troversy with the central powers, is
growing very rapidly in both the
senate and the house. The south
ern members have been almost a
unit for action and now it is ex-
pected that their position will be
strengthened by support from rep
resentatives of the districts where
interests will be affected by the
new order.
The text of the Anglo-F'rench de-
cision dealing with the mails con-
troversy is expected here early next
week. II is a complete refusal of
all Of the American demands and is
expected to further complicate the
situation.
So far as the new developments in
the submarine situation are concern
ed officials say that until all reports
regarding the attempted torpedoing
of the French liner Patria and the
sinking of the Dutch steamer Tuban-
tia are received no further action
will be taken. The state department,
although it has made public the al
legged secret orders OF the British
admiralty to commanders to sink
submarines on sight, will take no &C
zion on this phase Of the question
until the official British orders, al
ready asked for are furnished it by
the British EN- bassy

j. s. TROOPS NOT
To OCCUPY TOWNS
Establishment of Base in Mex
lean City Would be MiSin-
terpreted by People.
International News Service 4:

International News Service:
WASHINGTON, March 1S.-Ofic-
Ials made it plain today that the re-
quest Of Gen. Gaviera, the Carran-
vista commander at Juarez that the
American expedition do not occupy
any Mexican cities or towns, is con-
sidered reasonable. 1t is known
that the establishment Of a base in
a Mexican city by the American
forces would certainly be misunder-
stood by the Mexican people. To
avoid this it is expected that the ex-
peditonary forces will give al cities
and towns a wide berth in their
progress toward the south.
1t is not expected that any real
information regarding the plans of
the American forces will be forth
coming here for several days. The
censorship put into effect by the
general staff, as represented by Capt.
Cootes. is absolute so far as in
formation regarding troop move
ments is concerned. This is at the
request Of Gen. Funston, who takes
the position that the news should
come through his headquarters as
he is best able to determine what
should or should not be punished
one thing that officials seem
agreed upon. however, is that villa
Will not be captured alive. As a
matter of fact this government will
much prefer him dead inasmuch as
if caught alive the New Mexico
authorities would be certain 70 de-
mand him for trial as responsible
for the Columbus killings, while
Carranza could be depended on TO
insist that he be turned over to his
I troops for court martial and to face
a firing squad.
Villa May be Betrayed.
The news from the border that
private concerns are Offering large
rewards for the death Of Villa leads
officials who are perfectly familiar
with conditions to believe that some
Of the bandit leaders own men will
be the ones 10 get him" The re-
wards method has frequently been
I resorted to on the border TO get
bandits and when the purse is made
large enough it never fails TO sue
coed.
State department officials pointed
out today that the situation in the
TampicO district where serious
trouble is feared. is not new. Tor
reon and TuXpam have been the
scene Of disorders and this is due
TO the fact that Carranza has not
yet made any effort to get control
Of this section. It is understood
that the attention of the first chief
has been called to the situation
there and that he has promised that
troops will be sent to that region
Immediately.
In general the situation through
out Mexico is described by the de-
partment as fairly satisfactory"

LONDON, March 18.-All Amer
lean on board the Dutch liner, Tu
bantia which was sunk in the North
sea on Thursday, were saved.
The list of missing has been re-
duced to four.
The Dutch foreign office, convinced
that the liner was sent to the bot
tom by a torpedo, is reported to
have begun work upon a strong pro
test which will be sent to the Ger
man government and viii peremptor-
lily demand an explanation.
1t is denied in Berlin that the
Tubantia was sunk by a u" boat.
The foregoing were the outstand-
ing features today in the story of
the loss Of the fine Dutch ship.
A Central News dispatch from
Amsterdam stated that all the pas
sengers of the Tubantia were saved
and that if any fatalities attended
the destruction Of the ship the vic
Tins would be proven to be seamen.
Valuable diplomatic documents
owned by South American diplomats
who were on their way home were
lost
1t is estimated that the loss Of the
ship together with her cargo. mails
and the baggage of her passengers
will aggregate S4,5O0,OO0.
The greatest indignation exists
throughout Holland Most OF the
Dutch newspapers have abandoned
the theory that the Tubantia was
struck by a drifting mine and take
it for granted she was torpedoed.
The Neue Wander Tag of Amster-
dam says:
We are compelled TO recall Ger
many's promise TO the United States
not 10 torpedo passenger boats. We
expect the United States will con-
slider the Tubantia affair a viola
ton of that promise"
The Handelblad Of Amsterdam
says:
we demand that the Dutch gov
eminent firmly support the United
States in its efforts to bring Ger
many to a better conception OF its
duty TO neutrals."
