Two Sea Raiders Destroy Four Ships in South Pacific Ocean

WASHINGTON. Oct. 5. With defl-1

nite Information of the presence of two German sea raiders in the south Pacific ocean, announced In dispatches from Samoa to the navy department, a hunt for the commerce destroyers has been set in motion.

The two raiders are manned by the

crew of the famous Seeadler, which made her way late last year from Germany through the allies patrol into the Atlantic, southward around South America, preying on Bhipping, and thence to the south Pacific, where she stranded on Mopeba island, and had to be abandoned. The Seeadler destroyed three American sailing ships, the schooners A. B. Johnson, Manila and C. Slade, in the south Pacific. When she stranded the Seeadler had aboard 27 white men and 17 native prisoners, who with the crew, reached shore in safety.

Part of the Seeadler's crew put to

sea again in a power sloop armed with machine guns, bombs and two months' supplies. Early In September the

French schooner Lutece arrived at Mopeha, from Tahiti and was seized

by the remaining members of the See

adler's crew who put to sea Septem

ber 5. The prisoners were left on the

island to shift for themselves.

4 Captain Hador Smith of the American schooner C. Slade and three other prisoners left the island in an open boat and reached Samoa September 29, where the news of the sea raiders was

made known to the American naval authorities.

The number of the raider's victims

beyond the four mentioned in the dis

patches from Samoa cannot be ascer

tained. At least four American-owned vessels are reported overdue on the Pacific coast from south Pacific ports and their owners have abandoned hope

of their safety.

British, Japanese and American war

ships will scour the south Pacific for

the two German raiders.
