for several days with a high fever,
and was unable to come ashore, as
he vel much desired to do. First
officer Fritz Kruse, in a chat with
q Cablenews-Anerican reporter, stated
tbs captain has many friends in
Manila, and regrets deeply the indis-
position which confines him to his
stateroom. He also stated that a
mistaken impression seems to be
current concerning their former COM
mander, Captain Dempwolf, who has
always expressed himself as very

20 years ago Mr.: Dempwolf was ship
wrecked in the south seas and was
picked up by a Spanish steamer and
brought to Manila, since which time
he has always taken very friendly
interest in Manila and its people.
Captain Dempwolf is now commander
Of the Kiserih Augusta Victoria and
on the run from Hamburg to New

a dinner to Captain Kier and a party
OF friends at the Manila, but owing
to the captains illness, the dinner
has been postponed. liz \
