Sale of Arms Guarded.

Washington, July 14.-Agents of the
department Of Justice today increased
their vigilance to prevent the passage
Of arms across the Mexican border as
result Of reports Of suspected acti-
vities Of smuggling. The department
requested all munitions dealers to re-
port their sales and the railroads to
report their consignments, SO smuggl-
ers have little chance to operate.
Moreover, the price Of munitions is
souring high, as the result Of the de-
mand from Europe, that few sales are
made and stock in the hands Of border
dealers are low.

Baltimore, July 14.-Silence contln-
ues as to the date of the departure OF
the Deutschland. The tug Timmins,
which met her and conveyed her here,
remains fastened at the pier day and
night. She is in such close proximity
to the submarine that it probably will
take only ten minutes to get the latter
from the mooring into open water.
It was learned that a big hydro-a aero
plane is completed and is stored on
the pier Of the Eastern Forwarding
Company, where the submarine is
docked
This led to a report that the flying
boat would be sent to the cape for
scouting purposes before the subma-
rine makes her dash for the Atlantic.
This was denied by Captain Hinsch, In
charge of the pier for the Eastern For
warding Company. who said the air
craft is owned by two men who are
now with the Maryland National Guard
in Texas.
Prepared For Big Cargo.
The manner, in which the submarine
brought over, even to the pieces OF iron
ballast, led to the idea that she would
60 back heavily laden. Until the own
ers Of the cargo, that has been taken
from her, file their apers with the GUS
tom house, no authoritative details OF
its composition can be gotten. 1t was
said it was unlikely entry would be
made this week. Captain Koenig, the
submarine commander, laughed at the
report that the object Of the subma-
rine's voyage was to convey consign-
ment Of diamonds. t
At least one member Of the crew will
not go back. G. Prusse, carried as su-
per-cargo, made application to the inn
migration officers to be landed here.
The application was granted after the
usual legal forms.
Bomb Sent U-Boat.
A messenger boy carrying an inno-
cent looking box, apparently contain
er of love tSkens to the crew of the
Deutschland, to whom it was addressed.
walked down to the pier where the
German submarine merchantmen is
docked late yesterday.
At the wharf he was stopped and a
policeman, one Of the many who are
guarding the vessel, took the box from
him to deliver, as no one other than the
officers and crew is allowed to go on
board.
The policeman was on the point of
delivering the parcel, when something
about it aroused his curiosity and CALL
ing fellow officer to his side, he pro-
ceeded to open it.
1t contained a timed dynamite bomb.
Soon to Have Exploded.
Examination showed that the infer
nal machine was due to explode within
a short time. It's mechanism was
promptly destroyed by the officers.
Less than fifty yards away, on board
the unique craft which the bomb had
been intended to destroy, Count Won
Bernstorff, the German ambassador
was making a visit of inspection.
Rewards Long Vigil.
The interception of the delivery Of
the death bearing package was the
first reward reaped by the police offic-
ers for their unceasing vigil over the
Deutschland since it's arrival in port.
Thousands Of persons have visited
the dock where the Deutschland hes.
Some have viewed the craft from the
shore, but almost as many have come
as close as the guards would allow in
launches and yachts. Before the re-
turn cargo is placed aboard the vessel
it will be inspected carefully.

The supply of old rags is affected by the cutting off OF
