MAIL, THORNTON SAYS
Letters Brought by Deutschland
Will Receive Usual Treatment,
Postmaster Asserts

Tho $50 tons of mail which the German
super-submarine Deutschland brought into
Baltimore yesterday will receive the same
treatment as all other foreign mail received
from abroad. said Postmaster Thornton, in
an interview today The mail will be sent
to tho exchange department at New York,
distributed and sent to the different post
offices throughout the country.
The mail received in the United States
is not censored, according to the postmaster,
and all the censoring is done abroad.
Whether the Government will dispatch mail
back in the submarine viii depend on the
attitude OF the State Department at WASH
ington. If the department decides that the
Deutschland is merchant vessel the Gov
ernment has the right to use 1t for mail
carrying purposes. but IL 1t is declared a
warship. It will be given a stipulated time
to leave port or else be interned. I'VE have
the right to send mail in a submarine, a
rowboat or an airship," said Postmaster
Thornton. Because mail arrived on board
the Deutschland, and got past the ships
of the enemy is no reason why the mail
should not go through the regular routine
of all other foreign mail"
All foreign outgoing mail is dispatched
to New York and sent out by the first
available steamship

SHOTS AT POLICE A PUZZLE;
CAPTIVE WAS NOT ARMED
Man Caught Outside Snellenburg Home
Had No Revolver-Companion Got
Away

The police are puzzled today to explain
the fusillade of shots which greeted them
yesterday morning when they attempted to
arrest two men thought to be burglars, who
had entered the yard of the home of Nathan
Snellenburg. at 2129 North Broad street.
Street Sergeant Ames and District De-
tective Orndorff of the Park and Lehigh
avenues station, responded to a telephone
call informing the police that two men had
been seen climbing the fence Of the Snellen-
burg home. When they arrived three shots
were fired at them through the fence and
they returned the fire. None of the bullets,
however. took effect.
One OF the men in the yard escaped. but
the other. John Killeen, 21 years old. of
1926 North 18th street, was arrested and
held In S400 bail for further hearing to-
day. His companion Dale De Kline, IS
years old. was arrested at his home, 1913
Mount Vernon street, this morning, and
both were held in $500 bail for a further
hearing next Sunday.
Both denied any intention of robblng the
Snellenburg home, of which they were
suspected, and said that they had fred no
shots. Their clothes, their homes and the
vicinity of the shooting were searched and
no revolver could be found 1t is thought
possible that the shots may have been fred
by some overzealous neIghbor of the
Snellenburgs. who aimed at the men thought
to be burglars. but nearly hit the police
men.
KllIeen was intoxicated when arrested,
the police assert. He said he and his COM
panion had climbed the fence because they
were carrying several bottles of beer and
did not want any one to see them.

KEEP THE HOME CLEAN, SAYS
HEALTH CHIEF TO PARENTS
Keep Children Out of Crowded Places,
Urges Doctor Dixon

HARRISBURG. July 1O.-whlle the
causes of infantile paralysis are unknown
State Health Commissioner Dixon gives
much advice that may prevent the disease
among children. He says:
"Infantile paralysis is a disease that
affects the nervous system. 1t often causes
death, and again. the acute stage fire.
quently subsidies and leaves paralysis of
one or more of the limbs that heretofore
has often lasted through life.
To-day we do not know what causes the
disease, therefore preventive measures must
be broad. You must keep the children
away from insect life. such as files mos
quitoes. fieas, bedbugs. ticks, ants, lice. etc.
You should see that all rats and mice
around the building are killed. Pet cats
and dogs should be washed with 2 per
cent. carbolc acid solution to destroy insect
life Everything should be kept clean about
the home. including the children's bodies
and clothing.
Children should be kept out OF crowded
places and be denied the frequent access to
crowded halls of entertainment during our
present threat with epidemic.
'grhe youngsters should not be permitted
20 sit on the damp ground nor have their
bodies thoroughly chilled, day or night
They should not bathe in cold water until
their circulation Is interefered with and
they become chilly and blue"
