forgct Wilson aroused great enthusiasm at
Van the world baiesmansmp congress
shadcf today by urging that business men
tnxf carry justice and fair dealing into the
the I . . u i i iu..
pons UI U1C WUUU, pal Mliuai ijr tuws
of Mexico, and thereby establish con
fidence in American principles. His
efforts, he declared, will be to serve
all America bv serving- Mexico itself
for Its best interests without using
force and not to serve the few "gen
tlemen" who wish to exploit Mexican
possessions.
When the president asked the
crowd what it desired at the end of all
the present world troubles, it shouted
"peace" in one voice, and then he ad'
dcd that his wish was permanent
peace,
"I hear some men say," . he laid,
. "that they want to help Mexico, and
the way they propose to help it is to
overwhelm it with force. That is the
wrong wav as well at the lonu way.
"Alter fighting them you would
have a nation full of justified susdi-
, cion. Thus you would not help them.
' You would shut every door against
you, .- v .-, .
. Why Mexico it Suspicious.,
"What makes. Mexico suspicious is
that it thinks we do not want to serve,
but possess, it. And it has justifica-
tion' for these suspicions in the way
' some gentlemen have sought to. ex
nloit its oossesaions. " '
"t will not, lerve' these gentlemen,
but l will serve all Americans by try
ing to serve Mexico itself.
"The way to establish our sover
eigntjj is to respect it." ;
' The president added that he believes
in the old Viriginia bills of . rights,
which declared that country may do
as it pleases with its own . govern
ment
This information, the president
said, was for those gentlemen , who
would "butt in."
The. president declared that the
merchant marine, which some are "so
slow in giving us," will be a great help
to the business interest of the United
States.
. In order to gain foreign business,
however, he added, it will be nects
sary for American business men to
adapt the goods to the demands of
other countries and not try to force
their own idea on other markets.
Salesmanship, he said, would go hand
in hand with statesmanship after the
close of the war. -
" Will Hold Reception.
President Wilson was accompanied
by Mrs. Wilson. As the party was
driven to the convention hall a can
non thundered the presidential salute.
Henry Ford, the manufacturer, sent
the president a message expressing
confidence he would keep the United
Spates out of war. . , "". ....
, After speaking at the Salesmanship
congress President Wilson was , to
hold a public reception. This after
noon he is to visit an automobile fac

Most of the time he sped along on

Diesel oil engines. Submersed he
could go at the rate of seven and one-

Approaching the capes late Satur
day. Captain Koniff found his nath
apparently clear. He lay to with his
acctcs awash, however, awaiting until

down shortly after midnight and he
put on all speed and shot between the
Virginia capes, to be greeted by the

On board the submarine are the

twenty-six men. all wear in? the res.
ulation uniforms 'of the German mer
- cantile marine, with the North Ger
man Lloyd insignia upon their caps.
' The skipper is a trim, sliahtlv built
man of medium height, around 40
years ot age. i wo ot his seamen are
' griuled old tars, but all the rest are
- youths, apparently ranging from 18
to 2i. ...
, . When the vessel was released from
Suarantine it moved up the river to
ic pier of the Eastern Forwarding
company, six miles away to a care
fully guarded waiting berth. On the
way up it passed a down merchant
men lying at anchor. The first, a big
Norwegian freighter, dipped its flag
and its whole ship's company lined
against the rail, raised three rousing
cheers, which were answered with a
: will. With another Norwegian and
two Dutch ships the submarine ex
changed formal saltitra. It moved
dose by a number of British tramps
in silence, observed with eager inter
est by the English crews.
Captain and Crew Pose.
:j At the dock the boat hardly was
tied up before an army of newspaper
men and moving picture photogra
. phers stormed the place. They were
tot permitted to get near the Deutsch
land, protected by a barbed wire
stockade and numerous guards, but
Captain Konig soon appeared on
shore and cheerfully posed before the
i, cameras.-' .'. - ' -
"Better hurry up; 1 haven't had my
breakfast yet, and don't look good,
he remarked in excellent English,
' with only the (lightest trace of a Teu
tonic accent He stood smilingly in
the rain, wearing blue flannel trou
', sers stuffed into leather sea boots, a
dark gray leather coat, gauntlets and a
jauntily set cap. When the photog
' raphers gave him a rest he held a
aort of impromptu reception, shaking
hands with everybody and telling how
giaa ne was to De in an American
port.
Later he was persuaded to bring
. 1. rt : : 1
uui ins new. me gunning young
sters brought with them a laree green
board taken from the stern of the
ship, on which was painted in big sil
ver letters Deutschland-Bremen.
Grouped about the board, with their
skipper in the center, the sailors
posed until Captain Konig said it was
time to eat.
Unloading Begins.
A force of longshoremen was ready
on the dock to begin unloading the
cargo, which is to be shipped as soon
as possible by the Eastern Forward
ing company to the purchasers, New
York chemical companies. Probably
only a day or two will be required to
discharge; then the submarine will
take on the crude rubber and nickel
consignments already stored in the
pier warehouse for its return trip.
When the start back across the At
lantic will be made, of course, is prob
lematical. An official of the for
warding company said today it might
be two weeks or it might be a month,
but it was not denied that no advance
notice would be given and the vessel
would make its way out of the capes
whenever and however the opportu
nity might offer to elude the enemy
patrols which undoubtedly will be
scouring the Virginia coast waiting
for it to appear.
Not Worried by Libel Threat
Captain Konig went about his
preparations for entering at the cus
tom house without hurry or unusual
formality just as though his boat
were an ordinary freighter. He did
not seem to be worried over reports
that the American authorities would
carefully investigate his case to de
termine whether the DeUtschland
should be rated as an ordinary com
merce' carrier. The story that the
Lake Torpedo Boat company was
preparing to libel the submarine on
the ground that its construction in
fringed upon its patents apparently
did not fliterest him. ...
; Health Officer's Description.
As described by Dr. John C Trac
ers, assistant health officer, who was
taken through the boat by Captain
Konig, the Deutachland'a interior
quarters appears to be mainly a mass
of machinery. It has but one deck
below and a seventeen-foot depth of
hold for its cargo. Dr. Travers de
scended through the forward hatch,
where he found the crew's quarters,
bunks on either side of a narrow
passage way leading to compart
ments occupied by the captain and
his two officers. The captain's room
is scarcely six feet square and bare
ly high enough for a man to stand.
It is furnished all in metal, with
the exception of a small oak desk.
Directly beneath the officers' quar
ters is the big battery which stores
electric energy to drive the vessel
when submerged. .
Next Dr. Travers was taken into
the officers' , mess room, scarcely
larger than the state rooms, with a
galley built with all the economy of
space of a Pullman dining car kitch
en. Aft the mess roomsfabout one
third the . ship's length from the
stern, is the submerging machinery
and two periscopes.
. Amaalng Mast of Machinery.
"I never saw such a mass of ma
chinery h my Hfe,? said? Dr. Travers.
"It was an amazing sight and I
doubt if It would mean much except
to the -engineer' who designed it.
There seemed to be 5,000 different
fieces,' an inexplicable tangle of
urnished ' copper and ' glistening
Aft of the submerging machinery
were the submarine's two powerful
Diesel oil engines which propel it on
the surface.
Both in the crews and officers
quarter were phonographs and
stocks of well used discs.
Captain Konig told the doctor that
while on the surface the noise of the
machinery was almost deafening.
"When submerged,"! said the skipper,
"It moves almost silently, and then
we enjoy ourselves."
JLooki rnrougn periscopes.
Dr. Travers was permitted to look
through one of the oerlscooes and de
clared he could see the surounding
scenery greatly tnagntned with amaz
ing clearness. :.

said, "for both long and short dis
tance observation. It did not seem
to me as I looked in it that I was
in the submarine at all. I felt as if
I were in an aeroplane on a wonder
fully clear day."
. Dr. Travers emerged through the
conning tower holding in his hand
two loaves of German war bread pre
sented by the captain as a souvenir.
Canned meats and fruits were the
crew's staple food and, with the ex
ception of their loss of weight due to
the oily atmosphere, in the opinion
of the health officers, the crew to a
man was physically fit.
"I never saw better set-up men
than these," said the doctor. ,
Both health officers congratulated
the submarine commander on his feat
apd remarked it had - been many
months since a ship flying the Ger
man merchant flag had arrived in
Baltimore.
All of its 315 feet of areenish-erav
hull was standing well above water
as the Deutschland was towed to its
dock. It was before 7 o clock in the
morning and rain was falling steadily,
but there was, a big, eagerly curious
crowd waiting. Old water front salts
and landsmen alike gazed with open
eyed wonder. The big craft appeared
like some giant fish of the deep, ylth
two periscopes for eyes. Its main
superstructure reached fully fifteen
feet above the water line. Amidships
the conning tower extended still
higher, and above all towered the
major periscope. On the starboard
side an emergency periscope was
ready in case the other failed.
Three hatchways lead below decks.
one forward, one aft and the main
hatchway, extending through the con
ning tower amidships.
Ship Closely Guarded.
Extraordinary , precautions have
"been taken' to protect the Deutsch
land. As soon as It reached its dock
an army of guards drove away all
river craft and a huge chain of logs,
was drawn around it to prevent ves
sels from Approaching within a hun
dred feet of the ship. On the land
side' of the dock a nigh board fence
reaching far into the river had 'been
erected. On top of the fence are half
a dozen rows of heavy barbed wire
and curtained with burlap to shut off
all view. No one without a permit
was .allowed near- the entrance to
the docks.
'Mv orders are from the home gov
ernment." said Captain Koniit. "No
one can go aboard without authority.
1 am sorry. I would like the whole
world to see."
Persons who talked with Lactam
Konig are authority for the statement
that the only arms of any description
aboard the Deutschland are four auto
matic pistols belonging to the officers

Waukegan, 111., July 10. Eugene M.
Runyard- making the opening argu
ment for the state today in the trial
of Will H. Orpet, charged with the
murder of Marion Lambert declared
Crpet was a sullen youth, vain and
without character. His motive for
the murder was plain, according to
the attorney, and his every act from
the alibi letters to his flight from
Helms woods on February 9, leaving
Marion's body in the snow, a guilty
act. Marion, who had lived and trust
ed and been betrayed, he said, was
now in his way. Her exposure meant
exposure to Orpet; she stood in the
way of his career, and in the way of
his marriage to Celestia Youker, Mr.
Runyard asserted.
Suicide Motive Lacking.
On the other hand, he said, Marion
had every reason to want to live and
every act, to the moment of her death,
gave evidence that she' did. She
planned to go to college. At her
birthday party February 6, the lawyer
related- she was the gayest of the gay,
according to every girl present except
one Josephine Davis.
When she met Orpet she had her
schools books under her arm, ready
for the day's lessons. Was that,
asked the lawyer, the preparation of
a girl walking knowingly to her
death?. And Orpet? Were his
fireparations for the meeting equally
nnocent? demanded the speaker.
They were not he asserted, but bore
every imprint of an elaborate plot to
escape consequences ot the crime on
which he was bent
Alibi Carefully Arranged. '
Mr. Runyard pointed to the rum
pled bed at Madison, meant to deceive
his landlady as to his secret trip, and,
as the most 'guilty act of all, to the
alibi letters to Marion and to his
mother.
"How in the name of reason are
we to account for the letter to Ma
rion?" said Runyard. "Just so sure
as Marion Lambert lies in her grave,
he knew she would never read it, and
he did know that it would be read by
those who inquired into her death.
"When that inquiry was made, he
wanted it to appear that he was at
Madison. There lies the damning fact
which no chemical symbols can ob
scure and no bottle of molasses and
water can hide."
Owners of Kearney
Ranch Buy Poultry
Plant at Kay See
The owners of the "1733 Ranch"
of 5,200 acres, which is located near
Kearney, Neb., have bought the Kel
lerstrau White Orpington plant at
Kansas City and havet moved the
equipment to Kearney, where the two
ranches are combined. Mr. Stickel,
owner of the "1733 Ranch," and Rus
sel Palmer,, manager of the poultry
department are in Omaha.
The Kellerstraua plant at Kansas
City, just purchased by the Nebraska
ranchman, was famous for its White
Orpingtons. In fact this Kansas City
plant popularized the breed. The
ranch once sold five birds for $25,000.
I. F. Swan, formerly manager of the
Kellerstraua farm, is to go to Kear
ney to take care of the Orpingtons.
One hundred acres of the ranch are
devoted to poultry. There are 9,000
fowls of all kinds on the . ranch at
the present time.

A special election at which voters

for Douglas county road building is
a possibility if the courts hold the
bonds voted at the recent primary
election to be invalid.
Both John Paul Breen, represent

says he is hopeful of getting a deci

The case hinges upon whether the

votes cast at the primary election or
whether they must have merely a ma-
