MANUEL SILVA DROWNED.
THE OWNER or THE sLooP wAIANAE
LOSES HIS LIFE.
Boom Knocked Him Overboard-On the
Down Trip Yesterday-sad
Accident.

Manuel Silva lost his life Monday
night. He was captain and owner
of the sloop Waianae. Silva was
drowned on the down trip. The
accident occurred off the coast in
the neig1borhood of the wreck OF
the Viva. Silva was struck by the
boom and thrown overheard. The
sad mishap was reported to the
authorities at 1890 Monday night
by Deputy Sheriff Sheldon. That
vigilant officer is conducting an in
vestigatton at Waianae today and
will make complete report. Silva
leaves a wife and four children and
considerable property
The Waianae sailed from Homo
lulu at noon Monday. She was
heavily loaded with lumber and a
general cargo. The deck was
covered with freight. There were
seven passengers.
Silva was on watch with native
sailor. There was a good breeze
and the little craft known as the
Waianea packet was moving along
nicely. The two men undertook
to bring her around" Silva was
very lively for a man of fifty-five,
but getting over the lumber bother
ed him. The boom struck him on
the side of the body and he struck
the water with yell.
The native sailor began to strip
himself for swimming, although he
thought Silva able to manage. The
sailor also called to those below and
two Hawaiians reused from sleep
came on deck.
Silva began to call for help. Just
as he made the appeal the three
natives jumped into the sea.
Other passengers had come up to
manage the boat, which had by
this time moved some distance from
Silva.
The victim of the fatality had
either become exhausted or was
paic-stricken. At any rate he gave
up all hope.
Twice Manuel Silva called
Good bye, you fellows p in
an agonizing tone. Then he went
to his death.
There were many fathoms OF
water here. The natives eXerted
themselves to the utmost in diving
and searching for the body. They
were unable to find it. Further
efforts will be made to secure the
remains
1t may have been that a shark
devoured Silva. One of these
monsters had been following the
sloop.
A number of people were at the
Waianae wharf to meet the sloop.
Among these were the wife and
daughter of Silva. When Sheriff
Sheldon learned of the accident
from the man who came ashore in
the row boat, he caused the wife
and daughter to be sent home.
Then the news was given them as
painlessly as possible. They were
almost heartbroken and could moi
be comforted. There was much
genuine grief in Waianae, as Silva
was favorite with everybody. Ir
Honolulu he was known as al
honorable, upright man and his
pleasant nature made him hosts o
friends who will with deep regre
learn of his fate. His immediat,
friends here were notified Monday
night of the accident.

Regulations Not Enforced.

The total catch of British Column
bia sealers for the present year is
95,o49. In 1898 it was 10, 900 and
in 1892 $4,000. The Paris regula-
tons seem to be better adapted to
promote pelagic sealing than any
regulations the sealers themselves
could devise. The result is due in
part to negligence in enforcing the
regulations agreed upon at Paris.
