TOP SECRET Information Required

On an auction I purchased this local post card with a German stamp. A rare early postcard from Gibraltar taken by a German ship, send on 06th July 1900 addressed to Germany, depicting Catalan Bay-Gibraltar bearing a German 10pfg stamp and cancelled on-board the ship on the 12th July 1900 KAIS DEUTSCHE/MARINE/SCHIFFSPOST/No.43 used by SMS Furst Bismarck with OEDERAN arrival on 20th July 1900.

I went to the local achieves, and found some information when the ship arrived in Gibraltar. As you can see the ship arrived in Gibraltar on 06th July 1900 the Captain visited His Excellency the Governor, I am trying to get the Governors transcript for that day.
So the question is WHO from a crew of 560 sent the letter, to his mother or girl friend Olga. I am getting the letter translated.
There has to be a record and names of all the crew, in the German Naval Achieves.
I am requesting help from the German speaking Whip members. Please probe the German Navy to give you the names so we can then find the writer of the letter.
