.'PING NEW!
Capt. Bob English has been sick
since his return from Hilo. having
perhaps found tho climate of Hilo
too dam) for him.
Captain Pcdcrsen of tho steamer
Mikahala, has been placed in com
mand of the now steamer Ilanalei.
It is probable that Captain Mosher
will take the Mikahala and Captain
Grceno the Keauhoa.
The steamer America experienced
a very rough trip from Ivahului to
Hilo, the water being so deep on the
forward deck at limes that the
sailors had to swim. Pilot Bob
English was carried to Hilo on the
America, returning on the Kinau
Much anxiety is being felt for tho
Olymp'm. Heretofore, she has made
the run in fifteen days, but us the
time that has elapsed since she left
is twice that period, and as she has
not been sighted anywhere on her
course, the gravest fears arc enter
tained for tho safety of she overdue
bark.
San Francisco, March 5. An im
portant piece of testimony was
given yesterday by Freight Clerk
George Engleharkt of the wrecked
steamer Rio do Janeiro in the Inquiry
now being held by Captains Bolles
and Bulger, Federal inspectors of
hulls and boilers. It was, in effect,
that tho niglit before the' accident
Captain Ward was afraid to enter
the port in the fog, and said that
Pilot Jordan advised the move, but
he himself would stay outside a
week before he would attempt it.
Hardly less important was a frank
admission by Chief Engineer P. II.
Herlihy that he had been remiss in
not beiug at his post while the ship
was entering the harbor.
Third Officer C. J. Holland of the
Rio Janeiro, reported drowned,
escaped in a boat with seven of
the Chinese crow. He says that
Captain Ward was carrying Mrs.
V.'ildniau to one of tho boats when
tho steamer went down. Among
other effects picked up by the fisher
men was tho box containing Captain
Ward's papers. The licenses of
Capt. Ward, First Officer Johnson
and Second Officer Coghlan were
found floating in the bay near
Alcatraz and picked up by Capt.
Lundquist of the steamer Acme.
Thopuiscr's list of passengers was
also found.
