recommendations of the treasury department and the naval experts who Examined the Deutschland and would t'oremptlr recognize her as a merchant

j schjand at her guarded dock today.

Thousands of cases of dye-stuns were taken'from the interior of the vessel Ltand stored In the nearby r warehouse ,r loaded on freight cars. t-s The unloading probably . will take .another, twenty-four hours, and. work will then be begun putting aboard the , nlckle and rubber which will be taken

, ', V Captain Koenig and his crew have

become a sort of community possession of Baltimore, and the sailors are almost mobbed by admirers whenever

9'lhey appear in public.

- - Captain Koenig has arranged to keep his crew on the interned North German Lloyd liner Neckar which was .rtoday moved alongside the Deutscht. land's berth and the men will be given

.'r -practically no shore leave.

'- Captain Koenig himself is a popular idol. Baltimore is crowded with

c thousands of visitors attending the

convention of the B. P. O. Elks and the' Elks have made the submarine a

feature of their festivities. Captain JKoenlg made an effort to get a square ahore meal at a local hotel, and was r Immediately mobbed.

A thousand shouting, cheering

i people surrounaeo mm as soon as ne I wai recognized, the hotel dining room

was nearly wrecked and a band wa3 requisitioned to play "America" and "Die Wacht Am Rheln." Captain Koenig stood at attention with bared head while both anthems were played and the crowd went wild. The captain was made an- honorary Elk on the spot Captain Koenig has been deluged

declared today that he was too busy to accept any of the Invitations. Several reDresentatives of various

dye concerns reached Baltimore today Xjnd made efforts to secure part of the Peutschland's cargo. All were refer

SWIMS STREAM, WALKS 28 MILES TO JOIN GUARD

, CHEYENNE, Wyo.4 July 12. The patriotic fervor of no member of the Wyoming National Guard, now awaiting at Camp Kendick orders to proceeding to the Mexican, border, exceeds that ' of Private William Smyth of Company F, who sacrificed his business, swam, a raging' river, and walked

twenty-eight miles that he might come

to Cheyenne with his company. Smyth has a homestead at Warren,

Wyoming. When he ? heard that, the militia had been called out he rode fifty miles to Douglas and there sub

mitted to a physical examination, which convinced him that he would be accepted as a recruit.; ..- He then went to Lusk and enlisted in Company F and from there started overland for Edgemont, S. D., to dispose of his livestock, and other property at his homestead. At Hat creek the automobile which he had chartered for the journey was stopped by a flood which had swollen the creek to a width of a quarter of a mile. Smyth disrobed, rolled his clothing into a bundle which he tied to his neck and plunged into the stretm. After a hard struggle he reached the opposite bank and then was compelled to walk twenty-eight miles before he could get a horse to complete his journey. At Edgmont he disposed of his property at a sacrifice of $600, returned to Lusk by horse and automobile and joined his company. DRAW SPECIAL VENIRE FOR BANKERS CASE
