Those who predicted a greater
year for the San Diego exposition
in 1916 than during 1915, are
having their innings. The at
tendance for the first month
since the formal dedication day,
March 18, has been more than
rs. 900 greater than for the cor
responding month of 1915. The
wonderful displays of Canada,
France, Italy, Germany, Austria,
and other governments partici-
pating at San Francisco, have
added greatly to the 1915 eX-
hibits.

SCOUTS KEEP DRY
in SPITE OF RAIN
MANY VISITORS FROM HATTlEs
BURG VISIT ARNOLD
SPRINGS CAMP.

Boy Scout Encampment, Arnold
Springs, July 21,- Rainl rain! rain!
It's a pity that all the crops that
need rain are not in this section. But
although it rains down pichforks, it
doesn't keep us from having good
time. The tents that might have
leaked were covered with flies-not the
house kind, but fly-tents-and every
thing was dry inside as at home.
We went swimming three times to-
day. The river is rising now and the
Scoutmaster does not permit us to
swim across any more.
Last night we had visitors from the
city. They were Mr.. Giles and Ernest
Love, who came fishing, and four
Boy Scout visitors of troop No. 2, Clyde
Jackson, Nereus Houston, Tommie
Travis, and Vert Giles. We are al
ways glad to have visitors.
We are having mighty good grub
for a camp. We have professional
cook. and we are having exceptionally
good food.
On account of the rain we can't go
out much but we play games in the
tents. We haven't had hold of Hat
tiesburg News since we came out here,
so we don't know what is going on
in town.
Some of the boys went fbhing this
morning but on account of the rain
they had to come back and didn't get
any fish.
Some of the boys have been taking
second class Scout examinations to-
day.
If anyone is coming out this way we
would appreciate It if they would bring
us couple Of papers or magazines.
Some of the boyS visited Rawls
Springs yesterday and brought back a
basket of grapes.

The allied embassies are understood
to take the view, however, that issli-
ance of clearance would furnish ba-
sis upon which to hinge protest that
the American government had per-
formed an act incompatible with the
principles of international law.
The informal representations al
ready presented go no further than to
suggest that the Deutschland, as an
underwater craft, is a potential war
ship. Should formal protest follow
1t doubtless will take the more ad-
vanced ground that the vessel also
lacks many characteristics essential
to merchantmen as conceived in in
ternational law, and may even be
framed with a view to holding the
United States liable for indemnity for
any damage she might cause to allied
merchant or war vessels after her de-
parture from American waters.
A merchant ship, it is held by al
lied diplomatists here, is presumed in
international law to be so constructed
and navigated that she plainly dis
closes her character, is capable of be-
ing stopped by warning shots across
her bow and can be boarded for ex-
animation of her papers. These ztric-
lures on the merchant status of the
Deutschland, coupled with the declara-
tion that submarine operation in it.

To supplement such protest the

IS LIFTED TODAY
MILITIA BOYS GIVEN PERMITS TO
VISIT JACKSON AFTER
A WEEK.

Jackson, Miss, July 21.-For the
first time since last Saturday after
noon visitors were allowed within the
lines at Camp Swep Taylor this morn
ing, and soldiers were given permits
sion to come to the city, as the quar-
antine which went into effect the lat
ter part of the week was raised. The
quarantine was put on because Of a
number of cases of diphtheria devel-
oping in Jackson, and surgeons at the
camp thought it best, as a matter of
precaution, to recommend the strict
quarantine that has been maintained.
The soldiers were as joyful as birds
out of a cage, when told that the quar-
antine had been raised, and they could
leave their company streets and come
into the city, where bright lights
shone, and they could spend their
money for sodas, etc.
The diphtheria situation has i'm
proved so greatly that camp officers
late yesterday came to the conclusion
that they were justified in raising the
quarantine.
A trainload of automobile trucks,
accompanied by 1OS soldier-chauffeurs,
the latter in Pullman cars, passed
through Jackson yesterday afternoon
on the Illinois Central aRilroad, en-
route to New Orleans.
The train consisted largely of freight
cars, on which the heavy motor trucks
were being transported. The trucks
and soldiers left Cleveland, o., Tues.

few minutes in this city the soldiers
stormed the jewelry stores in the vi
cinity OF the depot in search of cog
giles. They said they wished to be
prepared for cthe hot sun in Texas

BRITISH STEAMER
NEAR DEUTSCHLAND
ANCHORS ALONGSIDE GERMAN
U-5oAT; WATCHES
HER.

Baltimore, July 21.--A British cargo
steamship which anchored off the
berth of the merchant submarine
Deutschland gave officials of the East
ern Forwarding Company much wor.
ry today. The British vessel is in a
position to observe any movement of
the submarine.
The searchlight of the forwarding
company's tug Timmons was flashed
on the British vessel intermittently
throughout the night.
Captain Zach Cullison, of the Tim
minis, reported for duty aboard the
tug. He had passed several days
around the Virginia capes, presum-
ably getting a line on the movements
of foreign warships.
Prepared to leave port at any mo-
ment Captain Paul Koenig, of the
Deutschland, put on his uniform today
for the first time since he landed here
eleven days ago, and for several hour
this morning studied the charts of the
Patapsco river and Chesapeake Bay
with Captain Frederick Hinsch, CON-
mander of the North German Lloyd
liner Neckar. When Captain Koenig
went back aboard the undersea liner
he took with him a duplicate manifest
OF the ships cargo. Another copy was
ready to be taken to the customhouse.
Captain Koenig said he would not
leave the ship again, and Indicated an
early departure, but said nothing that
would give an idea Just when the sub.
mersible would leave.
1t was understood the Deutschland's
engines and submerging machinery
had been given final test and had
been found to be in perfect condition.
1t has been reported to officials
looking after the Deutschland's inter
ests that force of strangers has been
keeping close tab here on the subma-
rine's movements. Others are said to
be stationed at strategic points all
down the Chesapeake Bay to the
capes.
AT the office of the American repre-
lsentatives Of the Deutschland's own,
ers it was said today it was possible
that gold coin would be carried to Ger
many by the submarine Bremen, but
that none would be sent by tho
