SONOMA WAS IN
.ROUGH WEATHER
But Arrived Early in Honolulu
and Left for Colonies
Last Night.
The Oceanic liner Sonoma arrived in
port early Wednesday morning after
experiencing a rough voyage from San
Francisco.
About two hundred passengers
aboard the big steamer had to keep
pretty close to their cabins for the first
two days out of San Francisco as the
wind and waves pounding the vessel
caused much discomfort. The cross
seas through which the vessel had to
push her passage for a big portion of
the voyage caused water to be contin
ually pouring over her sides, but des
pite this fact the Sonoma made the
trip in fairly good time.
Among the passengers for Honolulu
there were a hundred all told were
Mr. and Mrs. Danforth Boardman, so
ciety folk of San Francisco, who are
to spend their honeymoon in Honolulu.
E. B. McClanahan, returned from a
business trip to the mainland; T. A.
Lloyd, of Alexander & Baldwin, has
been to the Coast for a short business
trip; J. D. Gaines, who will be supers
intendent of the cable station here, ar
rived with his wife; Miss Lishman
returned from a visit to. relatives on
the Coast; Miss Anna M. Paris re
turns, feeling elated over the compli
mentary notices that the Coast : news
papers have given her book of Hawaii
an verse; W. W. Dimond returned
from a business trip to San Francisco.
The Sonoma., carried a big cargo,
and this was not discharged until
evening, so that the vessel got away
from port for the Colonies after 8
o'clock.

One small poodle dog in charge of
the butcher of the Oceanic liner So
noma is causing a lot of pilikia aboard
the vessel. A lady who Is traveling as
a second class passenger la the owner
of the dog. Some of the passengers
Jokingly have informed her tnat the
dog will be fumigated ard likely put
to death by the health authorities as
soon as the vessel reaches Sydney, and
as a result Purser Hodson has his
hands full in looking out for both lady
and dog. Yesterday, as the vessel was
entering the harbor, the lady went to
the purser and stated that she under
stood that the dog wouli be put to
death. As this was the case she wished
to be permitted to do the deel herself
in a way that would be satisfactory to
her, if not to the dog. She wished ihe
purser to send ashore for 3ome chlor
oform which she intended to use on the
dog, and the purser settled mattery by
simply stating "I'll attend to it,
madam."
French Steamera Coming Here.
The Messageries Maratimes de
France, the great French steamship
line which, as recently announced in
the Advertiser, will install a service of
fast steamers from Marseilles by way
Australia, Tahiti, and Honolulu to San
Francisco, is now making arrange
ments through its agents in the latter
port to secure entrance there. The San
Francisco agents say that th line
should he in operation in a few weeks.
Kinau'a Sailing: Delayed.
The steamer Kinau will not arrive
in port. from San Francisco today as
was expected. The Wilder Company
received advices from the Coast by
yesterday's mail stating that the ves
sel's date of sailing had been postpon
ed until November 13.

PLOMB IS OFF ON
ANOTHER VOYAGE
"Sun Navigator" Has a Proper
Officer Over Him Now and
Plenty of Food.
George Sydney Plomb, the marvelous
"sailor-sun-navigator" who made such
a terrible voyage for ten days on a
bottle of gin and six crackers, In a
yacht that belonged to another man,
owes hi3 liberty today to the fact that
he got drunk instead of getting into
the hands of the "crimps," and also to
the fact that the latter have such a
strong "trust" on the sailor market
that men were badly needed on a ves
sel about to sail from Honolulu.
Plomb was to have been given an
opportunity to explain his voyage in
the yacht Eagle to Judge Wilcox who,
as an owner of a yacht, would have
been a very competent judge to decide
on the question whether Plomb was a
liar or a navigator, but the Judge was
relieved of this delicate job because of
the fact, that the evidence against
Plomb was of a very meagre char
acter, and also because he was willing
to start right off on another voyage in
which there would be a proper navigat
ing instrument in charge of a duly
certified master and. plenty of food in
the vessel's pantry.
The police let Plomb go, and Captain
Harry Flint, of the waterfront police,
took him in charge at once and placed
him aboard of a vessel bound for the
Sound.

to keep an eye open for the lost vessel
on his way to Melbourne in command

which recently left San Francisco.
The reinsurance rate on the British
ship Clydesdale, out nearly a hundred
and twenty days from Newcastle to
San Francisco, was 80 per cent at the
time the mail left the coast. It is
thought that the vessel may have met
the same fate as the Fannie Kerr.
Because of the high prices first given
him for converting the transport Rose
crans into an oil carrier for the Hilo
trade, Captain Matson intended to take
his vessel to Seatttls to have the work
done, but the San Francisco iron works
people climbed off the fence and the
work on the Rosecrans is now going
ahead.

"CRIMPS" TRUST
ON WATERFRONT
Sailors Plentiful But Boardipg
House Masters Have Control
of Them.
Although there are many sailors
along the waterfront in Honolulu at
present who are out of employment
and are waiting for ships, outgoing
vessels are finding it a hard matter to
get crews, owing to a combine that has
been engineered by the "crimps." The
"crimps" were not satisfied with sim
ply boarding sailors until they could
get vessels and then secring the ad
vance money In payment and many
times for more than full payment for
lodging and meals supplied and npw
wish to get such a hold on the situation
that they can not only get the advance
j check, but also can hold skippers up
' for a fee of $25 for each man supplied.
Recently the Russian ship Sylfid had
j considerable trouble in trying to get
away from Honolulu, owing to the ac
tion of the men who make their living
by bulldozing shipmasters. Five men
of the Russian ship were told by the
"crimps" that they could secure them
jobs paying three times the money
they were at that time getting if they
j would remain in Honolulu until the
right ship came along. The men then
made a fight to get paid off, but their
master would not allow this and ow
ing to the large amounts they had
j coming to them the men had to stay
j by the vessel. The Russian captain
j said he was familiar with the work of
the American "crimp" and so held
about three months' wages back from
. each man. Tnis effectually held the
: sailors on board. !
I The new combine is referred to on
the waterfront as the "Boarding house
trust."
Captain Griffiths Dead.
Captain T. H. Griffiths, one of the
best known skippers trading to this
port, died on board the bark Kaiulani
: when the vessel was 400 miles off Cape
Blanco on a voyage to Honolulu. The
cause of his death was stomach
trouble. Chief Officer "Wallace took
charge of the vessel and steered a
course to San Francisco, where the
Captain's body was landed on Novem
ber 5.
i Captain Griffiths has been sailing on
on the Pacific for the past forty years,
and was a most capable mariner. For
years ne commandea tne DarKcar:ne
S. G. Wilder, and later the bark Albert,
now in port, and two years ago on the
launching of the new steel bark Kaiu
lani he took command of that vessel.
He was seventy years of age. A son
of Captain Grimms also died during a
voyage to Hawaii.
S N Captle In a Gale.
Captain Nelson of the barkentine S.
N. Castle has arrived in San Tanciso
with a long passage against his record,
and a long story of a hard voyage.
The vessel took thirty days to make
the trip up from Honolulu. On October
24 a westerly gale was encountered,
and this kept up for two days. The
seas swept the vessel, flooded her
cabins, and fenders, gratings, and a
quantity of lumber on board were
washed overboard. The vessel suffered
no great damage, although almost at ;
the end of her trip she found herself J
becalmed within two hundred yards of
Mile Rock. Anchors were let go in
time to save the vessel from drifting
on the rock, and later she was able to
sail into port.
