SUBMARINE CROSSES ATLANTIC
The German Deutschland Loaded
With Dreeing GcU by All the
RUchnda Fieri of the Allien and
Makes II* Way 4000 Miles to Bal
timore.
The biggest piece of newt in Mon
day's daily papers waa the account
of the German submarine, the
DeuUchlend, a merchant- vesae!, that
had escaped the vigilance of the Al
lies blockading ships and had safely
crossed the Atlantic and was m the
bay ready to dock at Baltimore, with
a cargo of dyestuff which is so bad
ly ncodod by American mamiraclu-,
rera.
For soma time there has bean talk
of such a ship making tbc trip
across the Atlantic but in many
places it was looked upon aa a mere
Action. On May 26 the Baltimore
American gave notice that such a
ship waa about to cross over and
stated that its probable date of or
rival waa June 1st. In the data it
waa mistaken but the fact that such
a merchant submarine was coming
proved to be true when the monster
undersea boat entered the Virginia
Capes early Sunday morning.
Roading the story of the coming
nf the lieulachland is like reading
some romance. It has Its thrills and
its wonders. The Cermana have
proven that they can get ac ross the
Atlantic and bring to the United i
State* some of the things needed ov
er hero and which cannot be obtain
ed elsewhere in spite if the English
and French blockade.
The Deutschland left Bremer about
June 14 with a cargo of about 760
to Heligoland where the remained
until Jane 21. This vu done to
fool the enemy. Capt. Konig. who
was in charge, had to plow deep
through the North Sea to sacaps the
Alliet blockade. It la ' said that
about half the voyage of 4000 miles
was made under the Wat>4.
The an pressful brtngtng across of
the Deutschland was t fast worthy
of the beat traditions of he great
German Empire Te Captain and
brave men.

Detroit, July 10.-—President Wil
son aroused great enthusiasm at the
World's Salesmanship Congress to
day by urging that business men car
ry Justiet and fair daaling into the
porta of the world, particularly those
of Mexico, end thereby cetablish con.
Itdence in American transports. His
efforts, ha declared, would be to
serve all America by serving Mexi
co herself for her best Interest with
out using force, and not to serve the
few “gentlemen’ who wish to exploit
Mexican possessions. "I bear nor.
men say," he said, "that they want
to help Mexico, and the way they
wish to help her is to overwhelm her
with feroe. That Is the wrong way
as wall as the long way. After fight
ing them you would hare a nation
fun of justified suspicions. Thus
you would not help them. You would
shat every door against you. What
makes Mexico suspicious Is that she
thinks we do not want to serve but
possets her. Aad she has Justifica
tion for this suspicion fa the way
some gentleenen has sought to ex
ploit her possessions. I will not
serve all America by trying to serve
Mexico herself. The way to estab
lish oar sovereignity Is to roepoet
harm.”

All World Arm lea Agree That Vac
rinatiea Prevents Typhoid.
Since Kuitata haa recently made
anti-typhoid vaccination compulsory
ior hur army, all the great armies
uf the world are agreed upon one
point—that vaccination as a moam
of preventing typhoid, the whole con
tinent of Europe haa been made al
most free from the disease. It is by j
no means the scourge to army life
that it used to be.
For a long lime Russia ants skep
tical as to the use of anil-typhoid
vaccine for her army and not until
lest year did she show signs of re
lenting. Early this year she took
tha matter into consideration and
makes ths statement that for five
months she received such an array
of favorable testimony from other
countrios as to the effect of this pre
ventive treatment that the author!
lira immediately made it compulsory
in the Hussion army. Since adopt
ing the vureins treatment against
typhoid with meeh convincing results
she haa been eneburaged to make
vaccination against smallpox and
cholara compulsory also. Recently
one entile army in the Caucmaas was
vaccinated against typhoid, smallpox
and cholera and in one day, with no
amour rcaulta.
As to the voloo of anti typhoid
vaccine, the war in Europe has sup
plied a test of an enormous scale,
and there has born no divergence of
opinion na to its uae or efficacy at
any lime. Aa a matter of Tact. Its
efficacy has been ao well established
in Europe that many states or coun
tries, Gallioa, for instance has made
it* use compulsory for her entire
population. Germany says she has
given it to millions with OO serious
conaeijueucci.
