New London, Nov. 1.-Ten million
dollars worth of dyestuffs and drugs
and, it was said, possibly stocks,
bonds and precious stones, COM
prise the cargo of the German sub
marine merchantmen Deutschland,
according to a statement tonight by
Capt. Paul Koenig, commander of the
craft.
The Deutschland is in this port al
ter having succeeded in making a
second voyage from a German port
of the American coast, despite the
watchfulness of British and French
war vessels
First of the undersea merchant
men, by use of which Germany hopes
to keep open a trade route with the
United States, the Deutschland, ac-
cording to her captain, is at present
the only vessel of that fleet. The
Bremen, which started a voyage from
the city after which she was named
on August 26, he said, has been Civ
en- up as lost. He thought she must
have struck a mine,' but he added:
'She has not fallen a victim to this
almost blockade; l am sure of that. y
