Wasp Deutschland To Start Home Friday.

Capt. Paul Koenig, of the German submarine ' merchantman which arrived in the United States last Wednesday, indicated Sunday that he would make his homeward journey jjext Friday, probably late in' the afternoon. While the captain would not, make a definite statement, there was plenty of evidence tending io show that preparations were being made for an early start back to Bremen. The gang of negro stevedores lave wbiked steadily loading in a cargo of crude rubber and nickle. The-erew-v.as engaged in overhauling the enfiines and five mechanicians from a U. S. ship practically completed the work of tightening rivets on the craft’s bow, which has become loosened by tossing in the high seas on the way over.
