 Act after act by the administration in it's dealings with Mexico was cited by the nominee to uphold his conten- tion that the country had not been kept out of war, but that it had waged "an ignoble, personal war" against Huerta in the days of his power. John Lind's alleged authori- zation to state that "Huerta would be put cut" the occupation of Vera Cruz, the sending of the punitive eX- petition into Mexico and the failure of the American troops to utilize Mexican railways were points upon which Mir.

An unnuarded Shot

BOSTON, Oct 9-Luck was with Lieutenant Captain Hans Rose, or the | commander of the German submarine | U-53 was well advised. There was | evidence today that when he set out | to attack enemy shipping there was not a British warship within 800 miles of the spot in which he chose to operate
 For some time, according to men who follow marine affairs, there have been only three British cruisers engaged in patrolling the Atlantic coast to keep open the path for American made munitions of war One of these cruis- CTS between Halifax and New York, another between New York and Der muda and the third between Bermuda and the West Indies.
 Three British cruisers arrived off Nantucket at 2: 40 o'clock this morning, almost exactly thirty-six hours after the presence of the German submarine in Newport harbor had been made known to the world through press dis patches
 Figuring back, marine men, making allowance for the time necessary to get orders to their commanders and assum- ing that the ships were under full speed, guessed from the time consumed that the cruisers came from a distance | Ol 4JU or 0UD lilies, or III OlileE WOTuS | from Halifax or Bermuda.
 There was much speculation as to whether the German commander trust 1 ed to chance when he virtually adver- tised what he was going to do and went about doing it so deliberately, or whether his apparent confidence in his i plans was based on an exact know i ledge that a vital strip of the American seaboard had been left unguarded by the British patrols.
 Captain Rose placed the submarine U-53 in a position to command both ! the incoming lane and the outgoing lane of what is known as the outside course" of Atlantic travel. Operating off the Nantucket lightship, he was much farther from the American shore than the common description of his zone of activities suggested
 The island of Nantucket lies twenty | miles south of the elbow of Cape Cod The Nantucket lightship is stationed 45 miles south of Nantucket island. Be- tween the island and the lightship are dangerous shoals. Accordingly, while operating off the lightship, the U-53 was 45 miles from American territory
 and 65 miles from the mainlnrd. e'0
 far as an invasion of the three mile
 limit neutral zone was concerned, ...e
 warship might as well have been in
 mid-ocean
 Immediately south of Nantucket
 island is the lane followed by east
 bound vessels. Twenty miles south of
 the island is the path of shipping
 bound in for New York.
 The U-53 scouting ten miles south
 of Nantucket, in clear weather Sunday,
 was able to pick up every craft going
 and coming on the outside course and only had to wait for her prev Vessels that, upon being warned, shifted their course to the inside route that took them over the perilous shoals between Nantucket and the main land escaped the submarine, but it is ap- parent that shipping generally chose the submarine danger in preference to the hazard of the shoals.

menace for the United States, and also raises the question as to whether American shores are not used as base for secretly supplying the submarines. LONDON, Oct 10.-The daily News says that the exploits of the U-53 will raise very grave issues, adding: Ger many is now, for some obscure reason, proving to America that recognition of submarine commerce destroyer in- wolves recognition of its right to block ade neutral port. If such right is to be recognized any power which has submarine at all can proceed to paralyze neutral trade with country it happens to be at war. We might conceivably see a Mexican submarine barring entry to a British port of American liners. The whole idea Is
 impossible, and opposed to the spirit of all careful international regulations
 with regard to effective blockades."

NEW YORK. Oct. 9. - Thirteen shots were fired at the British steam ship Strathdene, one of tEe vessels sunk by a German submarine off Nantucket yesterday before the 33 members of the crew had taken to tteir boats, according to Captain Wilson, commander of the Strathdene. who was brought here today.
 My ship was attacked without warning declared Captain Wilson after he had given a detailed state ment of the incident to the British consul general Thirteen shots were fired before we left the vessel None of the shots. however struck the shiI until we had taken to the boats."
 Under Instructions from the consul general, Captain Wilson declined to give out further information. Con sular officials, said Captain Wilson report, first would have to be for warded to the British amDassador at Washington before he could discuss the sinking of the boat
 Members of the Strathden's crew said that after they had pulled away from their ship they saw the subma rine approach the oil steamer Christ ian Knudsen, whose crew seemed tC be getting ready to lower their boats The submarine then returned and torpedoed the Strathden and again steamed toward the oil ship and ap- parently had replerished her oi tanks.

LEGALlSTA PARTY
 AFTER CARRANZA
Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

FL PASO, Oct. 9.-On the strength of stories brought to the border from Chlhuahua City, a rumor spread through Fl Paso tonight that the con- stltutlonalist garrisons throughout Mexico intended tonight to turn over to the "legalista" party and depose CarranZa.
 It is said that the legalista name covers members of the old "cientifico" or wealthy Diaz party and other dis gruntled factions. Villa. according to the report, has no other interest in the movement than to see CarranZa de- posed. He would keep away from the American border and act as a minor chief.

MATTER OF THE SUBMARINES
 TO ENGAGE PRESIDENT TODAY

entire lack of official information from his government on the new submarine attacks, said that Germany had prom ised to conduct her submarine warfare in accordance with the law of cruiser warfare.
 The ambassador remained with the president only fifteen minutes and was smiling when he left. He declared he was as much surprised as anybody when the news of the sinking of the i first British ship reached him. It is understood that the talk be- tween the president and the ambassa- 1 dor was entirely friendly, but that the l president informed the ambassador of l his determination to act firmly if the rights of the United States are in l fringed.
 l The president had seriously consid- cred going to Brooklyn tomorrow to attend the third worlds series baseball game, but decided to remain here and keep in touch with the submarine situ- atiOn. Before seeing Secretary Lansing the president will confer with Jules 1 JusSerand, the French ambassador, who ! is coming to Shadow Lawn to bring a personal letter from President POin- caire of France to President Wilson or 1 Polish relief"
 It is considered probable that during the conference the French ambassador may lay before the president the view of the entente governments that Ger man submarines should not be al lowed to come into American ports This point probably will be taken UT by the president with Secretary Lan. sing tomorrow night
 During the day the executive office! here were in communication with Sec. retary Daniels and received preliminary reports assembled by the navy depart ment on the submarine activities of the American coast
 The general trend of the reports wer, in effect that, so far as has been deter mind, the rules of intrnational law hat been complied with by Germany. was made clear however that these re
 ports were of a preliminary characte and were not conclusive Secretar,
 Daniels was instructed to keep tn president fully informed.

Unexpected in Germany

AMSTERDAM (via London), Oct. ,. A Berlin telegram says the Lokal An zeiger refers to the visit of the U-53 to America as an unexpected and bril- liant victory for German technique and German daring. It says the U5S abided strictly by international regulations under which, as a war vessel, she was not entitled to remain longer than 24 hours in neutral waters. This fact, the Lokal Anzeiger says. is of political as well as technical significance.
