CONFLICTING SCHEDULES.
COULD A PHILADELPHIA LAWYER
EXPLAIN THEM?
ule Is Correct, but the steamers
Say Otherwise.

There is decided misunderstanding
in the col unity regarding the days
upon whiCh the Canadian-Australian
steamers al due to arrive at this port.
The irregularity of arrivals from the
Sydney end are most annoying from the
fact that it is a great inconvenience to
fruit shippers and is likely to result in a
great loss to some one ii improvements
in the schedule are not made.
The local agents for the company
advertised that the Arawa would reach
this port July 3lst. And each month
containing thirty days they advertise
the first OF the following month as the
day of arrival. But it comes around
every month that the steamer arrives
here from one to three days late, the
steamer to-day being also late by five
days, according to the published
schedule.
The singular part of it, however, is
the difference between the official and
published schedules. The newspapers
stated that the Arawa would arrive here
on the 3lst; card in the Pilots Office,
issued last January, states that the
Arawa was due here on August LIST; the
official schedule at the Pilots office
contends that the self same Arawa was
due here on August 3D.. Messrs. Davies
& Company say the newspaper schedule
is correct; and as matter of fact, the
Arawa creeps into port on the morning
of the 4th little later than the official
schedule.
| Now what can be done about it
Since July 81, five days, dealers in Hon
olulu have had their freight piled up on
the dock for shipment The result will
most probably be that it will rot before
the dealers in America receive their
fruit. A reliable schedule is in order
and it is to he hoped will be at once
furnished by the steamship Company
