MYSTERY SHIP IS

Baltimore, July ga little patch
OF green visible through a driving
rain told watchers today that the
German submarine freighter Deutsch-
land. like the Star Spangled Banner.
was still there. What had prevented
her from heading for the Virginia
Capes overnight. as apparently plan
ned. was more mysterious than all
the mysterious moves and theories
connected with this submarine ven
ture.
Movements at her dock overnight
made II seem more certain than ever
before that she was going al once
But after the first maneuvers OF the
early night calm settled over the
pier. the tug Timmons only occasion
ally flashing her searchhght out into
the storm. The Neckar and Deutsch-
land crews attended divine service
and then banquet aboard the
Neckar. Strangely enough the Tim
mons early today remained at the
end Of the log boom which guards
the Deutschland. She heretofore has
ducked back behind the cargo barges
at 6 a. m, after completing her
searchlight vigil
All that Is needed for dash ls to
open the front OF the boom. snake out
one barge. throw tow line 10 the
Deutschland and turn into the middle
branch Of the Patapsco river.
Manffestly the submarine is ready
in every sense OF the word for a
quick getaway.
Whether the promoters OF the new
submarine line actually fear for the
Deutschland's sister ship. the
Bremen. is something they alone
know. II appeared likely today.
however, that they have very little
or no information as to her course
The most likely thing seemed to be
that the Deutschland will 20 down 10
the capes and lie there In wait for
her, unless, indeed. she is taking a
northerly course toward Boston.
thereby drawing away the allied pa
trol from the capes and permitting
easier egress for the Deutschland.

of the town. That jolt Is the one
thing a tourist remembers. and 1t
takes from him the impression he
gained on his first look down Sixth
street. The railroad certainly does
not realize the handicap its planked
crossing Is to the town or II would
hasten to pave with granite blocks
to the height Of the rails. as II has
heretofore. Possibly II
the council would give the company
another Jolt Just at this time the jolts
would be eliminated from the Sixth

Ever since Sunday morning the two
forces have grappled handto-hand in
desperate combat.
The wide street which stretches
out in the towns suburbs TO join the

1t seemed that the Anzacs-sturdy
British colonials. tested in the blaz-
ing heat of Gallipoli-were slowly
but surely Wrestling the advantage.
None the less desperate were the
struggles for supremacy in the two
forests at Delville and Highwoods.
The forests themselves were gone.
OF the leafy foliage nothing remain
ed. Shot and shell and hand grenades
had stripped the trees into gaunt fire
blaekened poles or laid them low on
the ground in extricable confusion.
Behind these barriers OF logs the
Germans and British fought fiercely.
There was no slackening in the
artillery fire which General Haig now
has been pouring eeaselessly into the
German lines since Friday. On the
other hand, the Germans pounded
away with explosive shells, gas shells,
shrapnel and machine gun fire.

BANKS APPROVE
BLACKLIST ORDER

New York. July 35.--That the
British blacklist OF United States
firms was not published untii the
acquieseence or approval OF several
large banking institutions OF Nev
York had first been assured. was the
statement made TO the United Press
today on good authority.
This fact Is considered responsible
for there not being more firms on the
list. The bankers took the stand
when the matter was being discussed
that only those houses having a
direct trading relation with Germany
and whose business was primarily OF
military value TO the German gov
ernment, should be boycotted.
When the question OF the effect OF
the blacklist on South American trade
was reached. the banks referred TO
were confident the United States
would profit by the boycott. Many Of
the blacklisted firms. the British on
cials have pointed out. have been
maintaining German trade relations
with South America and were In q
position to do so only because they
were domiciled in neutral country.
With the boycott In force. II is
claimed that practically the only COM
petition against United States busi-
ness would be removed and that the
business outlook for those banks
which recently have established
branches in South America and are
now training many employees in New
York for that field, would be mate
rally frightened.
In discussing the blacklist with the
bankers. the British officials pointed
out that there would be practically no
slackening in American trade. but on
ly transfer OF the business OF for
eign firms from the boycotted houses
to others not under the British ban.
On the other hand. they said. the
necessity OF British firms being re-
lieved OF the uncertain character Of
their American connections required
the publication OF the blacklist
This situation may result in strong
pressure being brought TO bear on the
government by the powerful fnan-
cial interests which will benefit by
the blacklist to prevent any drastic
action against England being taken.
