Not Aboard
(By Associated Press. J

Washington, Feb. 7.-Torpedoed
and sunk by German submarine,
the Cunarder Tuscania, bearing 2,179
officers and men of the Thirty-second
National Guard Division, lies at the
bottom of the North Atlantic today.
On the basis of figures reported to
the War and State Departments here,
the missing would be 257 The fig
ures of the British admiralty as they
stood early today, however, placed
the missing at 1863, which was later
lowered to 101.
Reports available gave no details of
the disaster, but it is regarded prob
able the vessel stumbled on a SUBJ
mersible rather than that the disas-
ter was the first shot in the much ad-
vertised German offensive against the
Americans.
At the first there was some confu-
sion in the War Department as to
whether the goth Engineers or the
10th Engineers were aboard but II
was finally established the latter
ere not on the transport.

flPLOMACY NECESSARY
In HANDLING THE LATEST
MEXICAN REVOLT

Laredo, Texas, Feb. 7.-Diplomacy
and not arms has been called on to
END the latest revolt in Mexico-that
OF Generals Luis Gutierrez and Fran
cisco Coss in Coahuila- diplo-
macy plus arms and American in
fluence is counted on to bring Gen
erai Manuel Pelaez to acknowledge
the authority of the government and
incidentally divert to the national
treasury the flow of money which
PelaeZ has been receiving from the
Tampico Oil producers. This infor-
nation was brought to the border by
travellers from Mexico City and sup
plemented from the carefully CEN
sored stories appearing in newspa-
pers which recently have been
brought here from Mexico City
According to story printed in
Mexico City, General PeIaez, whose
forces have been guarding the dis
| trict that supplies the Entente navies
with fuel OIL had made overtures to
treat for amnesty with the govern.
nent The paper added that the
government would consider nothing
hut unconditional surrender and that
! General Manuel Dieguez had been
ordered to press the campaign
against Pelaez.
II was stated by one of a party of
travellers who is in a position to know
the workings of President Carran-
za's latest scheme to conciliate the
warning Mexican factions, that the
recent seizure of the fleet of the
Mexican Navigation Company was
not for the purpose of bringing food
stuffs from Central America, but for
transporting troops to Tampico and
driving Pelaez' forces from their
stronghold One steamer already had
been loaded with soldiers at Vera
Cruz the day he left. he asserted.
Another statement was to the eff
fect that General Luis Cabellero had
requested the Tampico producers to
use their influence to bring Pelaez
back into the ranks of government
generals; and that. If this were not
accomplished, Pelaez would be at
tackled from the landward and sea-
sides, with probably disastrous re-
suits for the oil fields, from a pro
ducing standpoint. The claim was
made that the government was de-
teTmined to secure control of the oil
fields, not only that it might get ad-
diiional revenue, but also to use its
control of the oil supply to force
favorable conditions for the exporta-
, ton of foodstuffs and gold from the
United States to Mexico.
