P JIEI, » A (CLOTHINGCO) DoV erZ. - T NEW BRITAIN, CONN PANT SALE Our Sale of SHUMAN and STEIN-BLOCH Clothing is now on. WILSON'S WARNING 0 ALL THOSE WHO TRY TO‘BUTT IN (Continued from First Page.) shall make exceptional demands for credits based upon gold and it will be ‘tound more and more difficult to sus- tain the growing fabric of American industry. We are growing too big to play in our own front yard all the time. This has knocked down a lot of geographical barriers and the mind of America has opened wide enough, let us hope, to take the whole earth in. “Foreign salesmanship calls for the ., keenly managed shop at home to back the kee searching man in the field. Foreign salesmanship is the call for character and courage and care; for it L large and not a little profession, a human and not a merely industrial thing, and in the last analysis it and all that it involves rests upon the quality of American manhood.” TIANT SUBMARINE REACHES ~ AMERIGA from his course only once, when he saw what he took to be an enemy craft. Most of the time he sped along on the surface, making a round fourteen knots an hour with his powerful twin Diesel oil engines. Submerged he could go at the rate of 7 1-2 knots. is Approaches Coast in Dark. Approaching the capes late Satur- day, Captain Konig found his path ap- parently clear. He laid to with his decks awash, however, waiting until darkness fell .before nearing the coast. When the bright half moon went down shortly after midnight, he put on all speed and shot between the Virginia cap to be greeted by the tug Timmons, sent there more than a weck before to await his com- ing. On board the submarine are the captain, first and second officers and twenty-six men, all wearing the reg- ulation uniforms of the German mer- chant marine. The skipper is a trim, slightly built man of medium height, around forty yvears of age. Two of his seamen are grizzled old tars, but all the rest are youths apparently averaging from eighteen to twenty- three. Cheered By Other Crews. When the vessel was released from quarantine she moved up the river to the pier of the Eastern Forward- ing company, six miles away, to a carefully guarded waiting berth. On the way up she passed a dozen mer- chantmen lying at anchor. The first, a big Norwegian freighter, dipped her flag and her whole ship’s company lined against the rail and gave three rousing cheers, where were answered with a will. With another Norwe- gian and two Dutch ships the subma- rine exchanged formal salutes. She moved close by a number of British tramps in silence, observed with eas- @r interest by the English crews. At the dock the boat was hardly tied up before an army of newspaper- men and moving picture photograph- ers stormed the place. They were not permitted to get near the Deutschland, protected by a barbed wire ade and numerous guards but Captain Konig soon ap- peared on shore and cheerfully posed before the cameras. “Better hurry up. I haven't had my breakfast vet, and don't look good, he remarked in excellent English, with only the slightest trace of a Teutonic accent. He stood smilingly in the rain, wearing blue flannel trousers stuffed into leather sea boots, a dark gray leather coat, gauntlets and jauntily set cap. When the photographers gave him a rest he held a sort of impromptu re ception, shaking hands stoc with every- l body and telling how glad he was to be in an American port. Has Chemicals For North. Later he was persuaded to bring out his crew. The grinning youngsters brought with them a large, green hoard taken from the stern of the ship on which was painted in big sil- ver letters “Deutschland der Brem- en'”. Grouped about the board with their skipper in the center, the sailors posed until Captain Konig said it was time to eat. A force of longshore- men was ready on the dock to begin unloading the cargo, which is to be shipped as soon as possible by the sten Forwarding company to the purchasers, chemical companies in the north. Probably only a day or two will be required to discharge, and then the submarine will take on the crude rubber and nickel consignments already stored in the pier warehouse for her return trip. When the start back across the At- lantic will be made is, of course, problematical. On official of the For- warding company today said it might be two weeks or it might be a month, but it was not denied that no advance notice would be given and that the vessel would make her way out of the capes whenever and however the opportunity presented itself. Captain Konig went about his preparations for entering at the customs house with- out hurry or unusual formality, just as though his boat were an ordinary freighter. He did not seem to be worried over reports that the Ameri- can authorities would carefully in- vestigate his case to determine whether the Deutschland should be rated as an ordinary commerce car- rier. A story that the Lake Torpedo Boat company was preparing to libel the submarine on the ground that her construction infringed upon its pat- ents apparently did not interest him. Mass of Machinery. As described by Dr. John C. Trav- ers, ant health officer, who was taken through the boat by Captain Konig, the Deutschland's interior ap- pears to be mainly a mass of machin- ery. She has only one deck below and a seventeen foot depth of hold for her cargo. Dr. Travers descended through the forward hatch, where he found the crew’s quarters, bunks on either side of a narrow passageway leading to compartments occupied by the captain and his two officers. The captain’s room is scarcely six feet square and barely high enough for a man to stand. It is furnished all in metal with the exception of a small oak desk. Directly beneath the offi- cers quarters is the dynamo which stores electrical 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 pull- man dining car kitchen. Aft the mess room, about one-third the ship’s length from her stern, is the submerging machinery and two periscope: “I never saw such a mass of ma- chinery in my life,” 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 five thousand different pieces, an inexpliciable tangle of bur- nished copper and glistening steel.” Aft of the submerging machinery were the submarine’s two powerful Deisel oil engines which propel her on the surface. Both in the crew’s and officers’ quarters were phono- graphs 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, “she moves almost silently, and then we enjoy ourselves. Through the Periscope. Dr. Travers was permitted to look through one of the periscopes and de- clared that he could sec surrounding scenery, greatly magnified, with amazing clearness “The devise was adjustable,” he said “for both long and short distance observation. It did not seem to me as I looked into it that I was in the submarine at all. I felt as if I were in an aeroplane on a wonderfully clear day.” Dr. Travers emerged through th 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 crews staple food and with the ex- ception of their loss of weight, due, in the opinion of the health officer, to the oily atmosphere, the crew to a man was physically fit. “I nmever saw better set up men than these,” said the doctor. Both health officers congratulated the sub- marine’s commander on his feat and remarked that it had been many long months since a ship flying the German merchant flag had arrived in Baltimore. Like & Giant Fish. All of her 315 feet of greenish-gray hull was standing well above water as the Deutschland was towed to her 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 ap- peared like some giant fish of the deep, with two periscopes for eves. Her main superstructure reached ful- ly fifteen feet above waterline. Amid ships the conning tower extended still higher and above all towered the major periscope. On the starboard ide an emergency periscope was ready in case the other failed. Three hatchways led below decks, one for- ward, one aft and the main hatch- way extending through the conning tower amid ships. Army of Guard precautions have protect the Deutsch- land. As she reached her dock an army of guards drove away all river craft and a huge chain of logs was drawn around her to prevent ves: from approaching within a hundred feet of the ship. On the langd side of the dock a high board fence “hing far into the river had been erected. On top of the fence are half a dozen rows of heavy barbed wire and cur- tained with burlap te_shut off all view. No one without a permit was al- lowed near the entrance to the docks. “My orders are from my home Extraordinary been taken to NEW, BRITAIN DAILY HERALD, Konig. au- like government,” said “No one can go aboard thority. I am sorry. 1 the whole world to see.” Persons who talked with Captain Konig are authority for the state- ment that the only arms of any de- seription abroad the Deutschland are four automatic pistols belonging to the officers and a sportsman’s rifle used for firing rockets. England’s Rule of Sea Broken. Shortly before noon Captain Konig appeared at the down town offices of A. Schumacher and Co. agents of the North German Lloyd, carrying an armful of papers. It was his first trip away from the water front, Upon delivering his ship's papers to the office of the North German Liloyd line today Captain Paul Konig of the submarine merchantman Deutschland ued a formal statement declaring his voyage across the Atlantic had broken England's rule of the seas. From the custom house Captain Konig returned to his vessel, joining his crew in the cramped quarters in which they have lived for more than three weeks. So far no arrangement has been made for either officers or men to live ashore while the subma- rine is preparing for her return voy- age. Captain without would No Message to President. At the same time tne captain dis- posed finally of the report that he carried a message from Emperor Wil- liam to President Wilson, s: ng there was no foundation for the story. The typewritten statement follows: “The submarine Deutschland, which I have the honor to command, is the first of several submarines, built ro order of the Deutsche Ozean Rhoderi G. M. R. H., Bremen. She will be followed by the Bremen shortly “The idea of the building of this submarine emanated from Mr. Alfred Lohmann then president of Bremen Chamber of commerce. He brought his idea in the fall of last year con- fidentially before a small circle of friends, and the idea was taken up at once. A company was formed under name of Deutsche Ozean Rhoderei G M. R. H.,, and the Germaniawerft, Kiel, was entrusted with the building of the submarines. ‘“We have brought a most valuable cargo of dyestuffs to our American friends, dyestuffs which have been so much needed some months in America and which the ruler of the seas has not allowed the great American re- public to import. While England will not allow anybody the same right on the ocean, because she rules the waves, we have by means of the submarine commenced to break this rule. Great Britain Blocked. “Great Britain cannot, Rowever, hinder boats such as ours to go and come as we please. Our trip passing Dover across the ocean was an un- eventful one. When danger appeared we went below the surface and here we are, safely in an American port, ready to return in due course. “I am not in a position to give you full details regarding our trip across the ocean, in view of our enemies. r boat has a displacement of about 2,000 tons and a speed of more than fourteen kots. Needless to say that we are quite unarmed and only a peaceful merchantman. “Regarding things in Germany I may mention that everybody is con- vinced of the full final victory of the German arms and those of our allies. All facts of the last twenty months go to prove that there i doubt of this. All Porand and Kur- land, a country of the size of two- thirds of Germany, are since twelve months under peaceful rule and the entire country has been put under the plough, and thousands of acres will be served for the next winter‘s supply of foodstuffs. Rains and warm weather in April and May have brought a crop in view all over Ger- many, Austria, Hungary, Bulgaria and Turkey finer than since a century. “All Serbia, Montenegro and a great part of Albania are in the same position. Besides Belgium, one-sev- enth of France is in German posses- sion and all in a flourishing agricui- tural state. So there is really not the least anxiety for the British attempt of trying to kill by starvation a hun- dred million German and Austrian children and women and non-combat- ants by the most devilish plan ever tried by any nation in the world, Will Carry Mails. “Our boats will carry Atlantic the mails and from British interruption. “We trust that old friendly rela- tionship with the United States, go- ing back to the days of Washington, when Prussia, who was the first to help America in its fight for freedom from British rule, will awake afresh in your beautiful and powerful coun- try. “The house flag of the Deutsce Ozean-Rhederie is the old Bremen flag, red and white stripes with the coat of arms of the town, the key in the corner. This key is the sigr that we have opened the gates which Great Britain tried to shut upon us .and the trade of the world. The gates which we opened with this key will not be shut again. Open door to the trade of the world and freedom of the oceans and equal rights to all nations on the ocean will be guaranteed by Germany's victory in this struggle for across save the them Captain Konig's own story of the Deutschland’s vovage W told to newspaper correspondents soon after he made public his prepared state- ment. He laughed at stories of his being chased far off his course by ene- my vessels, and declared that during the entire trip the vessel travelled submerged only about ninety miles. “I have seen,” said the captain, “statements that we were forced to go hundreds of miles out of our course in the Atlantic because of Britinh warships. That not so. Why should we go out of our course, except to submerge and that is the simple and most effective way to get out of our course. Besides it is much easier te submerge.

Then nex through the channel into the Atlantic ccean. Feat Is Practical, “Our trip has demonstrated that the big merchant submarine is practical and that it has come to stay. We ex- pect the venture to be a great finan- cial success. This ship can carry a carga of 1,000 tons and on this trip carried 50 tons of dyvestuffs, valued at $1,000,000. The charges for the shipment alone will pay for the cost of the Deutschland, about $500,000. “On this trip we carried no mails nor did we carry money or seccurities. Also we came withaut insurance, run- ning entirely at our own risk.” “Did you bring a message from the Kaiser to President Wilson?” the cap- tain was asked. “No, we did not,” Captain Konig re- rlied with emphasis. *“That is a plain German Consulate Confident. Confident that no serious attempt will be made to question the mer- chantman status of the submarine Deutschland the Baltimore German Consulate today telegraphed Count Von Bernstorff at New York that it would be unnecessary for any rep- resentative of the embassy to hurry here to look after the interests of the underwater liner. There is said to be on hoard a large sack of diplomatic mail, bearing the seal of the Imperial German govern- ment. Customs officials emphatically re- fused to make public the contents of the hoat's manifest. The bill of health from the Ameri- can Consul at Bremen shows that the cargo consists of dye stuffs. ‘Will Not Affect Blockade Status. ‘Washington, July 10.—State depart- ment officials from hurried examina- tion of the question of whether fe clusion of the blockade by the Deut- schland would affect the legal status of the blackade itself came to the con- clusion for the present at least that it would not. They think that isolated blockade running or even the clusion of the blockade by a sub- mersible does not nullify a blackade.
