Bopp Prepares to
Turn Over Office
San Francisco, Jan. 13. Although
Franz Bopp has not yet received of
ficial word from Washington that he
had been removed as German consul
to San Francisco, he prepared today
to turn the duties of his office over to
Dr. Erie Zoepffel, German consul at
Seattle. Dr. Zeopffel is expected to ar
rive here in a few days.
Meanwhile Bopp and his associates
who were convicted of conspiracy to
violate American neutrality, prepared
to resist sentence.
District Attorney Preston declared
today that he would not yield to any
requests by the German ambassador at.
Washington that clemency be extend
ed to Bopp and his associates.
"Bopp will get no comfort from
me," he said, "if he offers to leave
the country in exchange for a pardon.
The time when we might listen to such
a suggestion has passed."
A year ago the kaiser decorated
Bopp with the order of the Bed Eagle,
third class, for his services in this
country.
