CARRANzA HAS
 ALLIES WORRIED
Feared That Proposal to Drive Man uel Palaez, Long in Charge of the Tampico Oil Fields, Is in Inter
 ests of Germany.

Washington, Nov i5.-Interna- iional apprehension has been aroused by the apparent determin- ation of President Carranza of Mex
 leo to drive the long unmoIested
 Manuel palaez and his little rebel army from the oil fields near Tam pico. There was evident, today, in allied legations and embassies here, feeling that German influence had played part in this move, which
 may prove embarrassing to the kaiser's enemies.
 General Manuel Diegoez has been sent into the field at the head of a considerable force with orders to clear the country between San Luis Potosi and Tampico of rebels. OfIi- cial reports now reaching Wash ington indicate the effectiveness of his work. Already he has defeated one body of rebel troops and killed Magdalena Cedillo, one of the Cedil- Io brothers, who long have been leaders of revolt in that part of Mexico. Unless ordered by the war department to change his plans, it is expected General Dieuguez will move towards the coast and attack Palaez. Representative of foreign governments display more concern over the news of the campaign aUoincf Do iaav thar, fbax- haxra sx-o,, and recent development in Mexican affairs News of minor reyolts in different parts of Mexico, even the activities ofsthe Villa followers along the border have failed to arouse great interest but the Tampico sit uation is of vital concern because of the huge volume of oil shipped from that port to the allies.
 Carranza has directed campaigns against various rebel chieftains, but never before has made a serious ef- fort to dispossess palaez, who has exacted taxes from the foreieners owning the oil wells, who also were paying heavy taxes to the estab- lished government The Carranza has not regarded the payment of money by the foreigners to palaez as a friendly act but the allies are justifying their course on the grounds of necessity. Tn return for the money paid they received immunity.
 The fear now frankly expressed is that a determined action just now by the Carranza government may result in a long feared attempt to destroy the oil properties. Tn some quarters here, however, it is be- lieved that Caranza will hesitate to drive the rebels to that point in view of the political and economic dangers that are involved.
 Reports from Merico City indi- cate some improvement in revolu- tionary conditions south of the cap ital, aItho the operations Zapata in Morelos and of rebels whose leader is said to be Felix Diaz in Chiapas. are Of sufficient importance to occu- py the attention of a large part of the government army.

 U-BOAT REMEDY
Daniels Says Menace Wifi Not Be Overcome by Any Miracle or In- veDtion--TO Re Conquered by
 Persistent Hunting.

Washington, Nov i5.--Importani progress has been made in the prob lem of locating submarines, after which their destruction is a com paratively simple matter, Secretary Daniels said yesterday discussing the 1000 separate suggestions, plans or models of devices submitted to the Naval Consulting Board since the United States entered the war against Germany
 The idea that the submarine will be overcome by q miraculous inven- tion 1t not now seriously consid- cred, he said The more intimate knowledge the civilian obtains on this subject the more convinced he is that the submarine can be con- quered by consistently hunting him down by the weapon of which he is the most afraid. This is the armed service boat, equipped with all the latest scientific devices and typified in the modern torpedo boat destroy CT. Foreign naval authorities have frankly stated their admiration of the degree of perfection of Ameri- can designs.
 Tn regard to the protection of ships against torpedo attacks, the evidence of recent of submarine activity has demonstrated that the immunity of a vessel depends very largely upon it's speed and maneuvering ability. There is possibility that some ar liileial means of protecting cargo carrying vessels may be found practicable. Tn no other field have so many suggestions or so many du- plicate inventions been presented to the board

The action of the Italians in open ing the flood gates of the Piave and Sile rivers probably means an at tempt to drown out the Austro- Germans who crossed the lower Piave several days ago at Grisolera, which is northeast of Venice.
 The flooding of the triangle formed by the two rivers and the Adriatic make ineffective any Ger man attempt to debouch in force against the Italian army along the Piave river.
 The enemy has been driven back, but still held on within the triangle
 Until the dykes from both rivers released the water over the lowly- ing plain, the chief menace at that point was that the enemy might be able to approach Venice thru the lagoon or lombard the city from this position between the rivers.
