MAY START TO , UNLOAD HER CARGO AT BALTIMORE TODAY. Aad Canadian Government Sells It to United 8tate en Condition That It Will Net Get to Central Powers. Canadian Government To Consider the ' New Situation. NicUs is Ready on Docks to Be Carried on the Submarine Em phatic Statement lis to Be Made by the .Owners of the Sub marine. (By The AaMdatc Preaa) Baltimore, July. 11. American naval officers detailed by the Navy Department to determine the status of the German submarine Deutsch- land, which went aboard the craft today. Captain Koenig, commander of the Deutschland, was not there to receive them, but they were shown through the vessel bv the marine superintendent of the North German Lloyd Line, with commander's per mission. Captain Koenjg today made a statement to the customs officials that he expected to get away within 10 days. He had been told, that if he re mained longer than 2 weeks the Deutschland" wireless woiid be sealed up. Ready to Unload. Baltimore, Joly 11. The German merchant submarine Deutschland may begin today to discharge her cargo, principally dye stuff, unless diplo matic complications arise. The question has arisen as to whether the submarine will be per mitted to take 'back to Germany the large quantity of niekel that is on the dock to which she is moored. Ship ment of nickel to the United States from Canada, whicV is the world's greatest producer of this metal, has been allowed on condition that its istribntion mill be so controlled that none shall reach tbe eentral powers. The C anadian government is sa:d to be considering the new situation. An emphatic statement made by Henry G. Hilken, of the firm repre senting the Deutschland 's owners, that under no circumstances will passen gers be carried on the submarine on her return trip. There have been two pphcants for passage, who are said to have offered $5,000 eaeh. Mr. Hil ken smilingly said he expected the submarine to leave about Christmas, but it is understood it will depart within a week. Is the Submarine a Warship? Washington, July lL Representa tions have been made to the State De partment by British and French em bassies setting up the claim that the German merchant submarine Deutsch land is potentially a warship, even though manned and used as a merch antman. The Department wil Itake the em bassies views under consideration in connection with the report of Captain Hugnes, American naval expert, wuo is examining the submarine for a war like instrument. From the allies point of view any submarine is essentially warship. The United States, Great Britain and France acrree on the doc trine that it is illegal to convert a L erchant ship into a cruiser or priva teer on the high seas, but tbe Uerman government insisted - on that right. Consequently, it is argued, it would be no violation of Germany to interpret international law for tbe Deutschland to take aboard armament outside the mile limit, and prey upon other vessels.

Concord and Vicinity Visited By One of the Worst 8torms of Recent ' Years. Concord and vicinity were yester day afternoon and evening -visited by one of the worst electrical storms of recent years. Starting about 5 o'clock, tbe storm lasted until after seven, and at timea tbe rain resembled a efeudbust. Lots of damage was done by the wind and lightning, exclusive oi tne heavy damage by the ram. lbe sleeping porch at tbe home of Mr. J. K. Killian, on Georgia avenue, was struck and greatly damaged by lightning. No one waa on the porch at the time, however. The large elm tree in the yard of Mr. Gowan Dugen- bery, was split in half by the wind and falling across the sidewalk made passage there impossible. This was one of the oldest and most beautiful trees in Concord and was planted when the city was a small town. A large smoke stack near the Can non Mill was also torn down by the lightning, which also burned out two of the big motors at the Young-Hart sell Mill. During the storm tbe barn belonging to Mr. 'W'. L. Winecoff was struck bv l'jhtning and set on fire. The fire was put out with little damage to the barn, and with no damage to the stock. When the lightning hit the bam it struck two mules belonging to Mr. Adam Blackwelder, which had been put in the bam during the Btorm Both of the mules were killed. None of the stock of Mr. Winecoff were hurt. The rain fall was one of the heav iest in years, and it is impossible at this time to estimate the damage that will ensue from the storm. FLOOD CONDITIONS AT ASHEVTLLE ARE GRAVE Two Rivers Are Raging Torrents and Several Plants Have Been Forced To Close Down. AsheviTle, July 10. With western North Carolina's historic streams, the French Broad, and Swannanoa rivers, raging torrents tonight and all indications pointing to both streams still going higher, this sec tion is experiencing the worst flood conditions since the memorable days of 1910 when all records for rainfall and swollen streams were broken. At eight o'clock tonight the weath er bureau reported that the French Broad river had passed eight feet. The record established in 1910 was eight feet four-fifths. Further rains tonight, which are forecasted, will make this rise more than a record breaker, it is feared. The rainfall since Saturday morning, which has been almost steady, at 8 o clock to night was officially given at four inches, a little less than the 1910 record of six inches in .48 hours. Conditions in section around the passenger and freight depots of the Southern railway, where many of the factories and wholesale houses are icated, have become serious, several the plants closing down today. Water is closing in on the Asheville cotton mills, being in the basement and almost up to first, floor, al though the mill operated today. WILMINGTON CAR STRIKE SETTLED. Motormen and Conductors Return to Work This Morning. Troops Still There. Wilmington, July 10. Through the office of the citizen's committee at work the past three days in an effort to settle the strike of motor men and conductors on the local traction company lines, it was an nounced tonight that the strike had been settled and the men return to work tomorrow morning. The settlement involves no recog nition of the union, but the company agrees to take back into its employ without discrimination as many of the former conductors and motormen as is required to fill vacancies, oth ers to be placed on waiting list and employed as early as practicable. Must Pay High For Woolen Goods. New York, July 11. Today mark ed the formal opening in- the woolen trade for the lightweight lines for next Spring, Many of the principal buyers, foreseeing the advance in prices on account of the war, laid in their stocks some time ago, so that the mill agents do not expect to see a very great rush of orders .at the present time. There is still a large part of the clothing trade to hear from, however, and t is certain that they will have to pay record prices for their needs. In some rases, it is said, the mills have placed high quo tations on their product for the ex press purpose of staying sales until such time as they are able to get what they ask. Ths popular Ben Wilson in "The Sheriff of Pine Mountain", at tbe Pastime today, Member Tht Assoc I " mm WILL CAMP GLENN BOYS " GO TO FORT OGLETHORPE CLEARING WEATHER IS NOW ALMOST ASSURED. Most of Larger Riven, Which Have Risen, Now Will Recede. Or Tka Aaaalate Fraaa) Clearing weather throughout the portion ot the South which suffered from flood conditions, resulting from the heavy rains, which accom panied the recent tropical Btorm. gave rise to tbe hope today that nor mal conditions soon would be restored. Some of the larger rivers in Ala bama, Georgia and Tennessee contin ued to rise, but reports indicated that smaller stnearos were receding. Reaches VTimmn Flood waters have anoarentlv reached the maximum here and are rapidly falling. At S o'clock today the French Broad river registered 8.8 feet, the high water mark of the 1910, flood. Much damage to crops is reported in adjoining territory. Brevard, N. C, on the Toxaway division of the South ern Railway, is cut off from railway communication bv water on tracks, but no washouts have been reported. A number of factories are not running on account ot water in the boiler rooms. FIRE AND WASTE ALL THREATENING THE TIMBER Of South, Says Henry S. Graves, Chief Forester of United States. (By Th Ajoclatd Preaa) Asheville, July 11. Fire and waste threaten the timber supply of the houth, Henry S. Graves, Chief For ester of the United States, declared today in an address before the South ern Forestry Congress, which begins a tour-day session here today. He said there was a great need for more states to provide forest fire preven tion under the Weeks law, in co-operation with the National Govern ment. In addition to the great pine for ests, Mr. Graves declared that 01 per cenf.'of'the country's hardwood supply is located in the south. Southern pine, declared the chief forester, is the principle softwood used in two-thirds of the country east of the plains. Backed by a ap ply of 325,000,000,000 feet of yellow pine, and 20,000 saw mills, he said the pine industry holds today a com manding place in the country's lum ber market. Mr. Graves also pointed out that the Southern planeries furnished an nually about $35,000,000 worth of turpentine and rosin, an income which is in danger of being entirely lost through failure to care properly tor torests.

Wood, commander of the Eastern De partment, designated Fort Oglethorpe training camp there baa been talk in Camp Glenn that the North Carolina troops would be sent there. This report, however, is classed as one of the numerous rumors as to where and when the troops would go. The opinion of officers, hpwever, is that Fort Oglethrope would afford a splen did place to train the troops as tbe parade grounds and quarters there are considered tbe best in the army posts of the country. Company L is at last dressed up. Shoes two pair each, were distribut eded Saturday and today each mem ber was given two pair breeches, two olive drab shirts, a hat and four pair socks. The distribution and checking of all the clothing has been a big task. The job also was delayed somewhat owing to the fact that all the men of the regiment had to be examined and mustered into the federal service before they could be given clothing. The entire regiment, however, is now well supplied and is ready to hold a dress parade. Private Osborn, of .Locust, a veter-2 an of the Spanish-American War, dio was rejected on account of his teeth,' would not let a little objection like that stand in his way so he went to -a dentist, and had the defect reme died, came back and joined the com pany today.
