 BALTIMORE, Md, July 9.-The worlds first submarine merchant man, the German underwater liner Deutschland, anchored below Balti- more tonight after voyaging safely across the Atlantic, passing the allied blockading squadrons and eluding enemy cruisers watching for her, off the American coast. She carried mail and a cargo of 750 tons of costly chemicals and dyestuffs and is to carry back home a similar amount of nickel and crude rubber sorely need ed by the German army
 Sixteen days out from Bremen haven to Baltimore the submarine reached safety between the Virginia Capes at 1:45 o'clock this morning, passing in on the surface covered by "a heavy poll of darkness which set tied over the entrance of the bay with the setting of a tell-tale half moon. Once inside the visitor threw caution aside and began shrieking his siren, signalling a pilot and at the same time attracting the attention of the tug Thomas F. Timmons, which had been waiting in the lower bay for nearly two weeks 10 greet the Deutschland and convoy her into port. Three hours later, at 4:45 o'clock this morning, the big submarine started up the hay with the German merchant flag flying, under her own
 power, piloted by Captain Frederick D. Cooke, of the Virginia Pilots asso- | ciation, and conveyed by the Tim mons. She was making more than F knots an hour and could have docked in Baltimore tonight, but arrange ments had been made for receiving | her with formal ceremonies tomorrow

Captain Cooke said the commander of the Deutschland was extremely frank in stating his mission to the United States, that of instituting an undersea merchantmen export and i'm port business between the United States and Germany The Deutschland left a German port on June 23, and al- though she encountered a number of merchant ships and one warship. the commander said he easily escaped de- lection by submerging. He declared that the entire voyage was uneventful
 Reaching the vicinity of the Virginia coast, Saturday morning, the Deutsch- land remained far outside, knowing that the capes were guarded by enemy warships, and came in last night un- der cover of darkness. He declared that at one time he was within 800 yards of a French cruiser outside the capes, but passed in unobserved

 LONDON, July 9.-The eastern front continues to overshadow the western from the spectacular view point, the Russian forces going from successes to successes. Not only has General Letchitzky, in the south, oc- cupicd the railroad junction at Del atyn, west of KolOmea, thus cutting off General Von Bothmer from his supply base, but General Brussiloff in the north, is making surprising advances on both sides of the Kovcl railway toward the Stockhod river. Tonight's Russian communication reports the enemy forces in this re- gion retiring in great disorder and adds that the Russians have occu- pied Hulcviche, which is about 2s miles to the east of Kovel. while ap- parently the Russians are already across the Stockhod river somewhere | in the region of Janovka

 Based on such information as had

 the statement of the German captain
 that his is a merchant ship. The question can be determined along well defined lines. If the submarine 1 flies a merchant flag, if she is manned by a civilian crew, if she

 Efforts to communicate tonight with General Gonzales and Andres Garcia Mexican consul to Fl PasO were fruitless and no hint of the ob- iect of the conference could be ob- tained from minor officials at Juarez.
 It was reported, however, from Mexican sources that usually are re- liable. that General Bell asked the JuareZ commander to report to him promptly any news of the movement of bandit forces tcWard the Big Bend district of Texas.

There was a drop in the number of new cases, SS being reported today against 95 the day before. The total number of cases now has reached 980. The mortality rate is still about 23 per cent. Brook lyn continued to lead with new cases.
 Precautions are being taken in the territory adjacent to New York City to prevent the spread of the epidemic.
 In several New York towns notice was served by the health authorities that nonresident children under 16 must not be permitted to enter.
 The federal and city health authori- ties here are concentrating their ef- forts to prevent the spread of the dis ease to outlying districts. Aside from the interstate quarantine regions, United States health authorities. it was said, are urging the railroads to cooperate from a sanitary point of view, to keep the epidemic confined to this city.

LONDON, July 1O.-The British troops have made steady progress in the face of stubborn resistance" in the neighborhood of Ovillers, on the Somme front. according to the official state ment from general headquarters last night. Two German counter attacks near the Bois Des Trones were re- pulsed.
 The fighting between the Ancre and Somme rivers continued last night al though with less violence than during the pending two days. The war office announced today that further progress had been made. by the British near Ovillers and that in another sector a group of defended buildings had been captured.
 A Reuter- despatch from Petrograd says that the Russians have crossed the Stokhod river at Ugli, which is ap- proximately half way between the rail- ways running to Kovel from Sarny and ROvno. The despatch adds that in- asmuch as the Austro-German forces defending Kovel are chiefly concen- trated along these lines, the Russian move in the center threatens both | groups.

 NORFOLK, Va, July 9.-Bearing a message from Emperor William to President Wilson, running the gauntlet of innumerable dangers from mines, sea -sweepers, and enemy warships, and bringing a cargo of dyestuffs, chemi- calls and mail the German undersea merchantmen Deutschland quietly slipped into Chesapeake bay at 1:45 this morning.
 It was the complexion of a four thousand mile sea voyage, the longest and most hazardous ever attempted by any submarine. Three hours later. led by the tug Thomas F. Timmons. the great submarine began the last leg of her voyage up the Chesapeake bay. She is due to arrive at Baltimore early in the morning
 On the heels of the Deutschland and following in her wake, with all the speed that can be coaXed from her powerful boilers, is the coast guard cutter Onondaga with Collector Nor man Hamilton of Norfolk aboard Whether MT. Hamilton has orders is not known.
 The Deutschland carries, mounted in her coming tower, two small guns of about three inch calibre No tor pedo tubes are visible. She is capable of submerging in less than two min- utes. On the surface of the water the submersible has a speed of from two to three knots an hour more than the average merchant steamer. According to Captain Frederick Cooke. Norfolk pilot and the first American to board the Deutschland the crew wore regulation uniforms ot German merchantmen seamen. No flas was displayed when the Deutschland first appeared off the capes. Later when inside the bay, the German mer- chantman ensign was raised.

 WASHINGTON, July 9.-The first concern of the United States in the arrival of the German super -subma- rine Deutschland is to determine whether the submersible is properly a merchant vessel or whether, under any interpretations of the principles of international law, she should be classed as a Warship.
 Nothing but an examination of the submarine itself with a survey of her armament, if any, and the compo- sition and character of her crew, can settle the point. This will be made by the state department and the customs authorities as soon as the ship puts into Baltimore
 As a warship the Deutschland would be required to leave an Amer jean point within twenty-four hours after her arrival, unless additional time was required to make her sea worthy.
 As purely a commercial ship she would be as free to enter and leave American ports as any other ship and this government would have no

SAN ANTONIO, July 9.-Number- ing now more than 10000 men, and still increasing. the border army will be subjected this week to such discipline and training as the staff here regards necessary for converting it into an ef- ficient fighting machine.
 The reported raid at Boquillas yes terday gave General Funston and his staff some concern until today when a. report from Colonel Gaston, command ing the troops in the Big Bend district, indicated that it was an incident with out great significance Three Ameri- cans, N. O. Mcknight, Austin Swasey and Roy Swasey, were held up by two Mexicans some miles south of the Rio Grande. They escaped and telephoned to the American side from mine on the Mexican side, saying they would make their way to the American side at the first opportunity.
 American officers felt little doubt that they would get back in safety. Austin Swasey and Mcknight are two of the men captured by Mexicans at the time of the Glenn Springs rail sevy eral weeks ago.
 Two brigades of the Illinois troops now encamped here will be sent out | this week, one to Leon Springs for rifle practice and the other to Landa's Park. (Continued on Page Two)

 Schweibs is said to have asserted that he desired to join the Mexican army so that, in event of a break with the United States, he could help interfere with the export of munitions from the United States to Europe. His adventure, he is claimed to have said, was purely private.
