ANIMAL AUBE
FRENCH NAVAL
LEAVES
Weighs Anchor Within "a
Hour Allowance in
American Port.
PILOT ASKED IF
HE WAS A GERMAN
Pensacola Harbor Mapped
by Officers as Ship
Sails Down Bay.

Weighing anchor at exactly 10
o'clock Sunday morning, the French
cruiser Aniral Aube, which put in
barely twenty hours before, steamed
down the bay and passed out to sea.
The cruiser was taken to point
about two miles off shore by Pilot
Lars Anderson, who, before he left
the ship, said he found out that about
two-thirds of the men aboard could
read and speak English fuently.
Pilot Anderson boarded the Aniral
Aube shortly before 10 o'clock, and
Immediately orders were given to
weigh anchor. Before he had been
on the vessel many minutes CAPTAIN
Anderson was catechized closely as
to his nationality, first being asked
if he was a German or of German
descent" Then he was asked what
was his nationality. Upon informing
the skipper that he twas a Norwa-
gian," things resumed their normal
aboard the naval vessel, and prepa-
rations to head away for the entrance
of the harbor were directed.
The pilot says that as the vessel
was steaming down the bay there
were at least a dozen men on the
bridge, a number of them closely in
speeding the harbor markings with
the aid of glasses, while others were
busy with pen and pencil, chartin-
as directed from those who scanned
the harbor through glasses.
Before the ship started a local boat
man asked the Frenchman if it was
fact that a number of Germans
were prisoners aboard. mo savvy, 4"
was the reply.
Captain Leskivit reiterated his de-
NAL that he was on the trail of the
Bremen or any other enemy under
sea boat. He maintained to the last
that his visit here had no official sig
niicance.
When last seen the ship was steer
ing east-southeast down the coast,
and the indications were that she was
headed for another Florida port. 1t
was believed that she win call at Key
West.
Two guests at the dinner given
| aboard the Amiral Aube Saturday
were Mrs. Charles F. Geek and Mrs.
Adrian Dunwody. Both of these la
dies speak French perfectly, and they
conversed in native tongue with Off
GERS during the entertainment. Mrs.
Dunwody, who in time Of peace re-
sides in Paris, was especially appre-
ciative of the opportunity to board a
warship carrying the tri-color of
France. Captain Leskivit was found
to be royal entertainer.
/ French Consul Howe strongly de-
MED Sunday that he had received for
the French ship any official papers.
He added that "news" which had been
printed in out-of-town papers was abb
solutely fallacious.
Nothing whatever with the excep-
ton Of fresh eggs, vegetables, ETC.
was taken on at Pensacola. 1t was
industriously rumored that the ship
was here for supply Of stores, Goa
or oil, ETC., but interviewers we're
, met with the reply that the ship car
ried almost years supplies on board
especially in the food line.
