Newcastle and S. f. Shipping.

There was launched at Port Blakely
on October "a second new steamer
for the |. |. S. y. Co. She was built
by Messrs. Hall Brothers and will go
to San Francisco for her steam en-
gines. Her name is the Scray. though
some Hawaiian word will be adopted
upon her arrival at Honolulu. The
Scray is 1902 feet long. 2S feet beam,
1912 feet in depth of hold and has
carrying capacity of 800 tons. She is
therefore three feet longer than the
! lie Au Hou and about seven inches
| deeper. The order was for a sister
vessel to the Ke Au Hou. No route
| has beeR selected for the Scrav, but
she will most probably go to Kauai
ports.
Capt. Nissen. of the Hawaiian bark
Rosalie was around town Monday
evening meeting old friends. Few
deep-sea shippers are better known
here than he and none are more pop
ular. The Rosalie will be remembered
as the Nicaraguan bark Don Adolfo,
which was sold under the hammer
here last November. Her owner in
San Francisco died and the crew
libeled her for wages. Capt. Nissen
bought her for S1,1OO. She was re-
fitted, given a new name, registered
under the Hawaiian flag and sailed for
the Sound. Since then she has had
more offers than she could handle and
has proved a 'gold-mine" investment.
From this port she will sail for Royal
Roads. where a charter is awaiting
her. The Rosalie has proved a fine
sailor. She came up from Newcastle
in the remarkable time of 46% days.
When the Irmgard was on her last
by sword fish. The honey weapon
of the sea monster was broken off and
remained in the vessels bottom. The
split caused a leak and the Irmgard
went on the dry-dock. There a cir
cular piece containing the sword of
the fish was bored out. Capt. Schmidt
brought the piece down with him on
this trip and has placed it on exhibit
ton in the window of the Hawaiian
News Co.
The Resale will discharge her coal
at the Pacific Mail wharf
