In the Pacific
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.

San Francisco. Aug. 13.-According
to the captain of the German cruiser
Leipzig now off this port eight war
vessels flying the flags of belligerent
nations are on the Pacific coast, each
daily expecting conflict with one or
more of it's adversaries. That he is
optimistic concerning the outcome of
engagements in which his command
may be involved may be shown by his
remark to Baron Won Schaak, acting
consul for Germany, who visited the
Leipzig yesterday, accompanied by
newspaper men.
"It would not take us long" he
said. 81 believe we could dispose of
them at the rate of one day"
The trip to the vessel was arransed
by a San Francisco newspaper in the
interest of two sailors aboard the
Leipzig reported in urgent need of
hospital attention. An endeavor to
reach Mayor Rolph to invoke by wire
less the extra courtesy Of the port to
land the sick men, proved fruitless.
Captain James Hayes Of the pilot boat
Adventures. however. informed the of
ficers of the Leipzig of the approach
of the acting German consul aboard
the launch Alert.
The Leipzig steamed to a point a
few miles distant from the Farrallone
Islands, 80 miles off shore, where the
launch was encountered.
Baron Won Schaak and the newspa-
per men were received ABOARD the
Leipzig by CAPTAIN Huan and arrange
ments were made for the landing of
the sick sailors. Captain Huan an
nounced his intention of entering this
port soon for coal and said his duties
might keep him in this vicinity for
some time. He also said he is IN con-
slant communication with the German
cruiser Nurnberg which is lowering
outside the port. When asked wheth-
err he would seize American coal if
being transported in British vessels,
he answered Il cannot do that"
After a consultation between Baron
Won Schaak and the officers of the
cruiser, a hasty return to land was
made One of the sick sailors who was
suffering from appendicitis was OPP
Grated upon successfully at a hospi
tai. The other suffering from blood
poisoning, is in no danger, it was
said.
The German cruiser Leipzig now off
this port is stripped for action all

soned.
