Made Mostly on Surface.

merchantmen Deutschland is ready 10
discharge her $1,000,OO0 cargo and
take aboard for the return trip metal
and rubber needed by the emperors
armies and navy. The return mer'
chandise Is waiting on the dock and
the time for leaving port will depend
largely upon plans for eluding vlgllant
enemy cruisers expected to be waiting
outside the entrance of Chesapeake
Bay.
The daring German seamen who
brought the Deutschland across the
Atlantic slept quietly in their vessel,
which lay moored to carefully
/ screened pier guarded by a strong
squad of Baltimore police. Capt. Paul
Koenig, the skipper, had delivered his
papers to the North German Lloyd Of,
fee, entered his vessel at the customs
house as a commerce carrier and had
presented to German embassy Off
cial package Of correspondence for
Count Won Bernstorff.
One of Capt. koenigs first acts az
ter he moved his ship up the harbor
from quaratine was to announce that
the Deutschland was but one of a fleet
Of mammoth submersibles built or
building for a regular transatlantic
freight and mail service. He said the
next to come would be the Bremen,
and that she might be looked. for at
some port along the coast within eight
weeks.
Anxious to establish promptly his
peaceful character and to forestall IN
vestigation sought by diplomatic rep
resentatives of the allied powers, the
German captain submitted his craft to
thorough inspection by the surveyor
Of the port and an agent Of the De-
partment of Justice.
These officers, as we'll as the Gus.
toms inspectors and quarantine sur
geons, agreed that there was no sign
of armament of any description on
board and that there was not doubt
in their minds about the boat being
entitled to the status of an ordinary
merchantmen.
The captain asserted further that
his voyage had established the fact
that submarine Of the type of the
Deutschland could travel anywhere
that an ordinary vessel could go, 49,,
900 miles, if necessary. He had no
fears, he stated, of his ability to elude
enemies that might be waiting for him
off the Virginia capes when he starts
his return trip.
Il will be able to submerge within
the three-mile limit, and they cannot
catch me after that" he said.
During nearly the entire voyage to
America, said Capt. Koenig, the
Deutschland travelled on the surface.
Once she submerged for 10 hours and
lay during that time on the bottom of
the English channel to escape British
destroyers. Capt Koenig piloted his
vessel out Of Bremen on June IA. He
went directly to Helgoland, remaining
there nine days. On June % the sub
marine slipped away from the island
fortress, and the trip which ended in
Baltimore was begun.
