VESSEL PEACEFUL
MERCHANT CRAFT
Report of Neutrality Board Shows
Deutschland Is Entitled to Full
Privileges.

WASHINGTON, July IA. - An ad-
visory report ON the status of the Ger
man merchant submarine Deutschland
submitted to Acting Secretary Polk to-
day by the government neutrality
board, is understood to hold that the
vessel is a peaceful merchant craft and
entitled to all privileges as such.
Indications are now that the state
department will make no formal an
nouncemcnt concerning the submarine,
but that the treasury department will
be advised to permit her to clear and
sail from Baltimore whenever her cap
tain desires to return to Germany.
The neutrality board gave its ad-
vice after considering the report of the
navy and customs officials who made a
complete examination of the Deutsch-
land and concluded that she not only
was unarmed, but could not be con
vcrted for war purposes without struc-
tural changes.

GERMANS REPORT SUCCESSES.
Claim to Have Repulsed British
French and Russians.

BERLIN, July IA, by wireless.-New
and violent battles are being fought on
both sides of the river Somme this
morning, says the official statement
given out today by the German army
headquarters staff. Early this morn
ing, the statement says, British troops
attacked in the sector of Mametz wood
and Longueval and made repeated eff
forts to capture Trones woods. The
first British attacks were beaten back
and new battles are now in progress.
East of the river Meuse in the region
of Verdun the French attempted to re
conquer territory captured by the Ger
mans, the official statement SAYS. Near
the fortress of Souville the French at
tack was impeded by curtain of fire,
it is claimed, and in the vicinity of
Laufee works the attack was com
pletelv repulsed.
Russian forces which had again en-
tered the first line of the German
trenches, defended by troops of Cen
raj Count Won Bothmer, were elected,
the German official statement saws,
with considerable losses by a counter
attack.

MRS. THOMAS'S BAG
GONE, SIS, 900 LOSS
Wife of New York Banker in Montreal
Offers $500 Reward for Return
of Rare Pearls.

MONTREAL, July IA. - Mrs. f. II.
Thomas, wife of New York banker.
who is staying at the Ritz Carlton
here, advertised in Yesterday 5 Mont
real newspapers that she offers $500 re-
ward for the return of a gold bag con
tanning about $4,000 and pair of
pearl earrings, lost between the Ritz
and John Murphy's s department store.
Mrs. Thomas left the hotel to 90
shopping. She does not remember leav.
ing the bag anywhere, but on nearing
the hotel she suddenly missed it.
The pearl earrings, given to her by
her husband, are valued at 5000. Each
consisted of single pearl nearly as
big as a cherry and were in a box
which bore the name of Carter, a
French jeweler.
Detectives have been set to the task
of discovering the thief or at least of
getting back the Jewels. Mr.. Thomas
says the $500 will be paid for the re-
covery of the pearls alone, with no
questions asked. AS they are so large
and cannot be cut up, like diamonds,
he thinks the thief or finder would
have great difficulty in disposing of
them.

NEW YORK, July 14.-Shark hunt
ing and fishing suddenly has become a
popular sport along the New Jersey
coast, in New York bay and along the
ocean side of Long Island as result
of the recent raids by man-eating
monsters from southern waters which
have killed four persons.
Reports of the sighting or killing of
sharks along the shore reached the city
almost hourly and some fishermen are
bringing in the big fish to prove the
truth of their stories. Only few of
these, however, are described as man
killers. Shark hunters at Matawan
believe they have the shark which
killed a man and boy yesterday penned
up in the creek behind a series of
wire nets, which have been strung
across the creek.
Preparations were made for a shark
drive at noon today when the ebb tide
will leave only a few feet of water in
the creek. Dynamite will be exploded
IN an effort to stun the sharks and
bring them to the surface At almost
