! trip here without special incident.
| The entire crew comprises % men.
The Deutschland appeared in the out
er harbor shortly after midnight and
proceeded to the dock of the Eastern
Forwarding company.
Captain F. Hinch of the forwarding

Black, the health officer, and other
officials, met the submarine on tug.
! The usual quarantine regulations
/ were waived and the Deutschland
tied up at the dock near the North
/ German Lloyd steamer Willehad.
( The Deutschland was said TO have
large cargo of chemicals,
| The submersible under her own
power, slid into a pocket that had
been prepared for her at the wharf,
at 2;35 o'clock. The crafts entry
into the harbor was so silent that only
few persons were aware that she
was there.
Captain 'Koenig said that the boat
originally was supposed to leave on
| October / but she was injured in
collision and put back to port, de-
laying her sailing ten days. The
clearance papers were made out for

bots of Hostile Ships.
I'VE saw lots and lots of hostile
Ships" said one of the Deutschland
sailors, big six foot German. There
were many more enemy ships seen
on this trip than we saw on the first
voyage. There seemed to be reg
ular lane of cruisers and ships OF 9TH
er types. l do not know how much
of the trip was made under water,
but the longest continuous period
submerged was 10 hours. This vas
somewhere in mid-ocean when hos
tile ship was sighted and we were
forced to submerge."
