Visitors Not Allowed to View
Deutschland, But Told to
View Next One.
CAPTAIN KOENIG FETED
Baltimore, July 22. Captain Paul
Koenig and fourteen members of the
crew of the submarine Deutschland
were feted tonight by thousands of
Baltimore persons of German extrac
tion at a celebration at Canstatter
park, under the auspices of the local
branch of the German and Austrian
Red Cross, They remained at the
park until a late hour. Captain Koenig
made a brief address in which he said.
I will see you again within a few
weeks."
Announcement from an authorita
tive source was made tonight that
Count von Bernstortt, the uerman
ambassador, and Prince Hatzfeld of
the embassy staff would come to Bal
timore next Wednesday to make an
other inspection of the Deutschland.
Congressman G. W. Edmunds of
Philadelphia visited the Deutschland's
pier late this afternoon and asked
Captain Hinsch of the North German
Lloyd steamer Meckar to permit him
tq board the Neckar for a view of the
submarine. He was told that no more
passes were being issued to the
neckar, dui captain mnscn invuen
him back on Monday, "when another
submarine just like the Deutschland
will be in, he said.
The stalwart negro guard at the
entrance to the Neckar's pier was told
that his services would not be needed
after today, but that he would be
wanted next week when the Bremen
arrived.
- warships Close In.
Allied warships, which have been
lying off the capes for several days,
drew in closer to the three-mile limit
today and began a rigid patrol, con
stantly moving along -a lane of per
haps titteen miles.
The exact number of ships in the
patrol is unknown here. No more
than two have been seen at one time,
but a third is said to be lying about
thirty miles out. The general opinion
is that two are British and one
French. None of them carries a flag
nor bears a name, incoming vessels
report
A rumor was current today that
German submarines acted as a con
voy to the Deutschland on its trip
to America and are awaiting a snort
distance out in the Atlantic to re
turn with it There was no direct
evidence tending to confirm the story.

The session continued for three
hours and at the close there was at
most a fist fight between C L. Shamp

prove them. Failing to do this, their
paper will fare badly at the hands
of those in power.

Reynolds was re-elected president of
central i-aDor union, ucuixc c. ui
man running a close second.

interested in the purchase of a rug to take advantage
of these exceptionally low prices. In the face of a con

in many instances lower than you would be
able to purchase them at the mills. In some
