At a miss meeting last night the depositors pledged 'themselves to assist Lorimer in his plans to reimburse them for "every dollar they had lost."

The former senator in an address before the meeting told how public men he "had made" had "turned h'im dowii" and how'former friends aijiong bankers had turned their heads when he asked aid.

The world is afraid to associate with Lorimer."

He said he wanted to show that this impression of him wan unjust and that he had an ambition to return to the United States senate.

ation in the final settlement of the Deutschland case. State department officials today expressed the belief, based upon unofficial information, that the Deutschland would be declared a peaceful unarmed merchantman and entitled to all privileges of an ordinary cargo carrier.

The state department, it was officially declared, will not concern itself with reported objections by Canadian nickel interests to exportation of nickel on the Deutschland. Agreements of American purchasers of Canadian nickel to re-export the nickel were purely private, according to Secretary Pojk.

U. S. OFFICERS INSPECT SHIP.

No Objections Offered by Commander of Submarine. BALTIMORE, Md., July 13,.—American navy officers, detailed by the navy department to determine the status of the i German submarine Deutschland, went aboard the craft today. Captain Paul Koenig, commander of the Deutschland, was not there to receive them, but they were shown through the vessel by the marine superintendent of the North German Lloyd line with her commander's permission.

The officers, Captain C. F. Hughes, and two submarine experts, Lieut. J. O. Fisher, of the bureau of engineering, and Naval Constructor Herbert S. Howard, accompanied by the collector of the port, boarded the Deutschland at her pier. Officially they were to determine whether the submarine was an armed vessel, but they were given permission by Captain Koenig to make a complete inspection. This meant that the American navy officers had been given the privilege of learning all the secrets, if any, of the vessel's construction, although Captain Koenig said there was nothing in this respect to conceal.

The navy officers expected after completing their inspection to return to Washington to report to the navy department.

Captain Hughes finished his inspection about 2 p. m. Ho declined to discuss what he had determined as to the status of the craft, saying he would make his report later to Collector Ryan. "I saw everything connected with the Deutschland except the bottom of her hull," Captain Hughes said. "I went over her entirely for the purpose of establishing her status and have done so."f

Castaia Hughes, it is understood,

however, is thoroughly satisfied that the Deutschland should be classed as a merchant vessel and will so report, it was unofficially learned, to the treasury department.

Refuses Passengers.

A question has arisen whether the submarine will be permitted to take back to Germany a laige quantity of rickel that is on the dock to which she is moored. Shipment of nickel to the United States from Canada, which is the world's greatest producer of this n-.etal, has been allowed on condition that its distribution should be so controlled that none could reach the central powers. The Canadian government is aid tc be cunsiJetiii^ the ntw situation.

An emphatic statement was mado by Henry G. Hilken, of the firm whici represents the Deu.tschland's owners, that under no circumstances will any passengers be carried on the submarine on her return trip. He said provision was made only for the crew and that it would be impossible to take any others. Two aplicants for passage are paid to have offered $5,000 each. Mr. Ifilken siftijingly said he expected the submarine to leave "about Christmaa' but it is understood she will depart within a week.

The Deutschland is moored within a quarter of a mile from, the place where the first submergence was made, 19 years ago, of the Argonaut, invented by Simon Lake, who came to Baltimore yesterday to personally congratulate Captain Koenig of the Deutschland on the feat he had accomplished.

Captain Koonig today made a statement to the customs officials that he expected to get away within ten days. He had been told that if he remained longer than tv.o weeks the Deutschland's wireless wornd be sealed up.

LONDON VIEW Or TRIP.

Newspapers Say Journey of Submarine Doern't Affect Blockade. LONDON, July 11.—The Daily Graphic commenting upon the transAtlantic voyage of the German submarine Deutschland says: "While the submarine trip does credit to German enterprise and seamanship it leaves the maritime situation whero it was before. The risk of disaster is immense and the capacity of submarines to carry commodities which Germany needs Is insignificant."

The Daily Express asserts that if a dozen German submarines were to reach America they certainly would not affect the blockade. "We are quite ready to Join in the laugh against ourselves and to applaud tho skill and daring of the captain who appears to us as a sportsman and has earned his laurels cleanly," says the Manchester Guardian. The Guardian says that plans for submarines of 3,000 to 4,000 tons existed in Germany and England before the war. but that such vessels were not built because of the time required to submerge them and

They warned America she was not too far away for Germany's arm to reach her. Although the Deutschland may be disarmed she is none the less a threat to the American navy."
