TO HURRY RETURN
OF SUBMARINE
Continued from page I

Co., at Canton, for repairs. Late this
afternoon she resumed her vigil by the
side of the Deutschland.
II is certain that if the Bremen, sister
ship of the Deutschland, is on her way
across the Atlantic the local agents
would not berth her any place else than
in the Deutschland's present quarters,
Therefore, marine officials at this port
are inclined to believe that the Tim
Minis was repaired hurriedly in order to
escort the Deutschland to sea at the
same time that the tug takes up her
stand oif the Virginia Capes TO meet
the Bremen.
Expect Bernstorff To-day.
Carl A. Luderitz, German Consul at
Baltimore, received a telegram from
Count Won Bernstorf this afternoon in
reply 20 an inquiry as to when the Am
bassador expected to come.
The two officials talked over the long
distance telephone tonight. Unless
something unforeseen happens Con-
sui Luderitz said, Count Won Bern
storff will arrive here about noon to-
morrow. He will take lunch with me,
and then we will 60 down to inspect the
Deutschland. ! have not been aboard
yet. Mayor Preston has invited the
ambassador to take luncheon with him
in the evening here at the Hotel Bel
vedere. | expect that he will return
TO New York tomorrow night"
More significance attaches 10 this ex-
pected visit of the German Ambassa
dor to Captain Koenig's ship than the
ambassadors words in New York would
indicate. The visit is the first oppor-
tunity the German Embassy has had in
many months to get first hand infor-
nation about conditions in Germany by
word of mouth. The German Ambas-
sador will also intrust mail and official
dispatches to Captain koenig, 1t is ex-
pected.
Another indication that the Deutsch-
LAM may make a hasty getaway ap--
peared tonight, when it was learned
that the crew of the submarine, who
had been promised an entertainment at
the Garden Theatre, were still in their
quarters on the interned North Ger
,nin Lloyd liner Neckar. on the other
side Of the submarines pier. As far as
can be ascertained, none of the ships
complement except Captain Koenig and
one or two of the officers has come
ASHORE thus far.
Unloading Is Rushed.
Nothing definite could be learned at
the Deutschland's berth or at the Of
fees of A. Schumacher & Co. about the
progress of unloading. but one can see
from the shore that it is being carried
on with all speed.
A report gained circulation tonight
tha. half dozen more German mer-
chant submarines were on their way
and that undersea war craft were com
ing with them TO prey upon commerce
on this side of the Atlantic. Henry u.
Hilken, president of A. Schumacher &
Co. said he doubted the story that the
submarine line opened by the arrival
of the Deutschland would be confined
entirely 70 legitimate trading and that
no supplies from merchant submarines
to war submarines was contemplated.
William p Ryan, Collector of the
Port, refused any information about
the nature of the Deutschland's cargo.
He finally admitted that no entry OF
duty had been made. SO the exact
composition of the 3,042 cases OF dye
stuffs that the Deutschland brought
over is still a mystery.
Simon Lake seems to have aban-
doned his alleged intention to libel the
Deutschland. He said this afternoon:
"I have not been aboard the Deutsch-
land and | am not going aboard her
am going home
CAPTAIN Koenig and Paul Hilken ap-
parently did not yet see August Heck
shers $4,000 check which he intends
giving to the crew. Captain koenig
said, 81 hope it's true" when he was
told about it this morning.
