The Gerald G. Tobey has signed a
now crew for her coastward voyage.
Yesterday afternoon ono of tho old
crow created some cxcltmcnt by ap
pearing on tho wharf, in an intoxicat
ed condition and throwing chuuks of
ooal at one of the old crow who had
been regained.
Captain G. F. "Wilde, U. S- N. who
was formerly in command of tho bat
tleship Oregon wits a passenger on
the Nippon Maru on route to tho
States, Ho is returning after an ab
sence of two years in the Asiatic
statipn, Ho was tho commander of
tho Orosran when sho stuck a reef
closo to Pinnacle Rooks last summer.
In speaking of this occurcnoo ho
said: Wo wore on our J way to tho
Taku forts and were going up tho ri
ver. I was very caroful about ta
king soundings and the lead showed
17 to 18 fathoms right along. Jt
suddenly changed to 20 fathoms
Federal Inspectors of Hulls and
Boilers "Whitney and Lehnors re
turned from Hilo yostorday on the
steamer Mauna Loa, roporting all
vessels at that port in good condition
and having finished their work on the
big Island.
Tins seemed rather odd and as
there was a heavy fog prevailing the
vessel anchorcn. The weather clear
ed and wo could distinctly perceive
the Hoki Island light. I knew ex.
actly whore wo wore so the vessel
was oi'dored to go ahoad once more
Suddenly the vessel struck against
hhe reef and was hard and fast in 3
fathoms of water wo wero drawing
a fathom more.
At first I thought wo had struck
on Pinnacle Hocks but we soon per
ceived them 1,000 yards away. In
stead of our being on tho rocks
it
was an uncharted-reef whore wo had
struck, Inasmuch as the chart had
been issued Dy the British Admirality
I supposed it was complotc. The
next thing was to ropair tho vessel
so as to save her and bring her into a
port where assistance could bo given
v c rigged up inch planimig over
the dozen or so holes in her bottom
and over these were tacked some old
awnmg. Then wo steamed back to
tho Japanese naval station at Rure
whero the vessel was fully repaired
During the past few months repairs
on tho Marino Railway havo been go
ing on. Divors have been fixing the
rollers on the submarine tracts. Yes
torday morning, while tho men were
busy at work, tho sudden squall that
came up just before noon dashed such
heavy seas over tho barge, in which
tho laborers wero tending the diver
that tho scow soon went to the
bottom. All yesterday afternoon, na
tive divers wero busy at work re
moving machinery from tho water.
Navigation for tho present
practically tied up. xne heavy sea
of yesterday, with tho high wind and
a low barometer mado conditions
that no master would care th face
All day long reports of damage
caused by the storm were reported
Work on the sower outiau is sus
pended temporarily. The pilcdriver
the donkoy-engino and tho barge con
taining it have all gone to tho bottom
What and how much injury lm
been dono cannot bo ascertained until
tho abatement of tlio present disturb
ance.
