DEUTSCHL AND BUSHES THE. WORK
OF UNLOADING And TAKING ON her
CARGO FOR RETURN TO GERMANY

Baltimore, July 12.-That plans are
afoot rapidly to reload the super-sub-
marine Deutschland and slip her out
speedily on her return voyage to Ger
macy was indicated tonight. A special
permit was obtained for continuing
the unloading Of the vessel tonight and
it was expected that she would be
ready by dawn tomorrow to. begin TAX
ing on cargo of nickel and rubber.
The tug Thomas F. Timmons COM
pleted repairs today and took up a po-
sition in front of the Deutschland.
When the Timmons entered drydock
it was reported that she was getting
ready to return to the Virginia Capes
to convoy into the Chesapeake, as she
did the Deutschland, the submarine
Bremen, which is said to be four days
on her way to this country
The air Of mystery surrounding all

ture was deepened by reports that her

The first really hot weather Of the
summer came to hand Wednesday and
the day was a scorcher, with a tenn
perature that was higher than is said
to have been seen in Augusta for sew
eral years and with an amount of hui
Nudity that served to marked degree
to make the heat the more unbearable
An unusual feature Of the day was
that the heat was greater late in the
afternoon than it was at noontime, for
while at noon the average appeared to
be from 30 to 90 in the shade, as late
as o'clock in the afternoon it reg
istered SO by reliable thermometers,
and is said to have gone even higher
than that.
The highest temperature reported
was that shown by the thermometer at
the Bither pharmacy, which was SO de-
grees at o'clock in the afternoon. At
$50 in the evening this same thermom-
eter recorded 70 degrees. both of which
records are unusual to say the least.
Another place where the mercury
climbed was at the residence of Mrs
William r. Smith at 10 Elm street,
where it registered 96 degrees. The
mercury is said to have reached the
100 degree mark in some places about
town, but the reports were not sub
stantiated.
One thing that was noticed in re-
gard to the intense heat was that the
relief which is usually to be had on
such occasions by a ride Of the trolley
cars was denied to the sweltering hu-
manity who sought it. Ordinarily a
trip up or down the line on these cars
will bring cool breeze that helps one
forget the heat and brings comfort
at least while the trip lasts, but yes
terday it was not so. for although the
breeze was in evidence it was so warm
that it was almost uncomfortable.

The quartermaster's job may be

notice Of her leaving being obtained.
1t became known late today that
several conferences have been held
here between representatives Of the
Ocean Navigation c.. and Of the Krupp
Steel Co., and Simon Lake, inventor Of
the submarine. This gave rise to re-
port that a company was in course Of
formation for the purpose of carrying
on undersea commerce between the
United States and Germany and that
Mr.. Lake had been invited to accept
the position Of consulting engineer.
While no official announcement
could be obtained from Paul G. L. Hill
ken, the American representative OF
the submarine interests. 1t Is under
stood that plans for the new venture
will be sent back to Germany on the
Deutschland. Mr. Lake is said to have
reached a satisfactory agreement with
the owners Of the Deutschland and
to have abandoned any intention Of
libelling the vessel Ee left for Bridge
port, Conn, tonight and is expected
to return to this city in a few days.

Baltimore, Md, July 1.-THE North
German Lloyd has received from per-
sons in all parts Of the country offers
running as high as $4,000 for the priv
ilege Of taking passage on the subma-
rine on her return trip.
I'VE have had letters from some per-
sons" said a representative Of the
company today. who said that they
would pay any price we wanted.
There was one $4,000 offer, several of
$4,000 and virtually scores running
from $1,000 to $4,000. These we have had
to refuse. Nearly all of them can't

who would like to get back to their ma
tive land, but no passengers will be
carried"
The unloading Of the Deutschland
was being FASTENED today and may b.
completed tonight. Included in the car
go entered at the customs house is a
quantity of scrap iron which it was ne
cessary to bring as ballast. The space
this occupied will be replaced with
nickel on the return voyage.
The fact that the tug Thomas F.
Timmins went into drydock today for
repairs gave rise to rumors that she
was getting ready to return to the Vir-
ginia Capes to convoy into the Cheas-
apeake, AS she did the Deutschland,
the submarine Bremen, which is re-
ported on her way. If the local agents
have any knowledge of the date of the
Bremen is expected, they are keep
ing the secret closely guarded. 1t was
thought, on the other hand. that the
tugs first duty would be to escort the
Deutschland back to the Capes. 1t was
intimated today at the North German
Lloyd offices that the Deutschland
might drop anchor several days at Nor
folk and wait for the most favorable
opportunity to slip by enemy cruisers
which may be waiting for her.

Washington, July 12.-The cost OF
living. after rising steadily since 1901
except in 1911, took a downward trend
during 1915. A report by the bureau OF
labor issued today analysing retail
prices of % articles of food shows that
relative retail prices during 1915 aver
aged l per cent. lower than 1914
Meats, lard and eggs averaged from l
to 9 per cent. lower, while potatoes
were 70 per cent. lower. Wheat flour,
corn meal and granulated sugar were
higher than in 1914, flour being 20 per
cent. and sugar II per cent. higher
Commenting on statements that the
European war is the dominant influ-
ence now controlling price changes of
all commodities, the report says:
1T is true that retail food prices in

London, July 12-Although the extent
of ground which has been gained by the
British offensive is not great, there is
general satisfaction in England at the
success attained by the army of General
Haig during the u days of fighting, and
the belief exists that the advantageous
positions now occupied will make possible
greater achievements. TIL captures of
Contamination, Mametz and Trones woods
gave the British a line running almost
due east and west, so that the Germans
to the north can be attacked on the flank
when the guns are brought up for the
second phase of the operations. South Of
the river the French are in a position
somewhat similar to the British and like
wise can attack the German flank south
of Belloy and Estrees. For the moment.
however, the two armies are engaged in
preparing new positions.

Paris. July 11-11.55 P. M.-Although
the battle in Picardy which has been

of the attention Of the German COM
manders, they were able today to re-
vive the struggle at Verdun, making
some advance there and delivering sew

ceal the transfer Of troops to the
Somme region.
Having maintained their grip on the
Thiaumont work but failed to debouch
therefrom, the Germans now are try
ing to push forward their left flank.
Their artillery was busy yesterday and
last night and today they worked up
the bombardment to a pitch equal to
anv that has gone before. Then the
bombardment ceased, making way for
the infantry.
