BALTIMORE, July 12. The
super-submarine Bremen, sister ship
of the Deutschland, Is now at sea,
the United Press Association learned
today from official sources. It is a
carefully guarded secret when and

the administration denied the Te-
ports that the United States would,

gard to the Deutschlond. It ls de.
clared that America will watch care-1
fully all movements of the subma
rines and will be deeply Interested In
the actions of the allied nations.
Count von Bernstorff will make
a nersonal Inspection of the German
'submarine tomorrow and take the j
occasion to congratulate the captain
and crew of the ship.
The owners of the boat have indi-
cated that the Deutschland will re-
fuse to carry Americans as passen-j
gers on the return trip to Europe,!
although offers of $5,000 have been
received for a single passage.
The Deutschland will lose no time
in returning te Germany and imme
diately upon completing unloading
her precious cargo, will commence
reloading after which she wlll.hasten
to Norfolk where she wilt complete
her cargo at the earliest possible
moment. The dash under the cordon
of English and French ships which
are waiting on the outside of every,
American port will doubtless be as
dramatic as was her appearance from
the depths on last Sunday. j

BERLIN, July 12. (By Acker-
man.) The overthrow of Baron von
Hollweg and the unlocking of the '
Gorman submarines which have re-j
mained idle for the past several
mouths, within the near future, Is
predictod by Admiral von Tirpitz's
friends and supporters unless Presi
dent Wilson acts against the British
blockade which ls at the preent time
preventing food supplies from reach
ing the German people.
The conservatives and the annexa
tionists have joined in this forecast.
It is said that the opinion of the
American government in regard to
the submarine warfare will be dis
regarded. The fight to oust the chancellor
has grown to such proportions that
it overshadows the great offensive of
the allies In public intorest. The
attacks have grown upon the Oil
man statesman since the appearance
of Prince von Buelow's book, the
' Deutsche Polltik". The friends of
the chancellor still hope that Wilson
will take a Btand against the block
ade now being maintained by Eng
land, which will greatly strengthen
Hollweg's position, Americans In
Berlin believe that Holweg will
emerge triumphant from the fight he
is now waging.

WILL NOT WARN
WASHINGTON, July 12. British
naval vessels will fire on the German
submarine liner Deutschland "at
sight".' it will be treated as a war
ship regardless of any ruling the
United States government may make.
If the Deutschland is destroyed by a
British warship, the state depart
ment will make no Inquiries.
These facts were made plain at
the British embassy and at the
state department yesterday.
The British and French embassies
protested to the state department
anainst this government's action in
permitting tho Deutschland to enter
an American nort. Thev protested
also against permitting tho Deutsch
land to take on provisions. They
declared to the Rtate department that
the Deutschland Is n warship and
therefore is entitled to none of the
rights enjoyed by a peaceful mer
chantman. At the British embassy the posi
tion of tho British government was
outlined as follows:
"In view of methods of the sub
marine warfaro employed by Ger
many In the present wnr. the
Deutschland must be considered as
a war vossol.
"No enemy vessel undor the wa
ter can be considered by Great Brit
ain as anything but a warship and It
will be treated accordingly."
