HONOLULU. March .. via San Francisco.
March 9.-The American ship w. F. Babcock of
tho Sowall line sailed for New York on Feb. 20
after great trouble with her sailors. The Bah
cock has had about the worst name OF any ship
afoat since T. +. Cakes changed her name.
Capt. Graham had to accept twelve Kanakas to
make up tho full crew OF eighteen men. The
remaining six white men only shipped to escape
imprisonment here. At the last moment one of
tho six jumped overheard and swan ashore
rather than sail on the Babcock.
At one time II looked as though the Captain
would have no officers, rs the mates who camo
with him from New York asked for their dis
charge. and two who were brought from tho
coast refused to stay. Finally the Captain Sc
cured as second mate q man who was recently
released from the San Quentin Prison. and tho
crow were all men who had been sentenced to
imprisonment for various offences and had q
choice botweon serving their terms or shipping
on the Bsbcock. One sailor preferred the prison.
On tho last voyage. out from Baltimore the
sailors on the Babcock declared that they had
boon cruelty used and on the DAY they reached
Honolulu they all made complaint against tho
Captain. The Shipping Commissioner induced
them to unload the vessel by a promise of secur-
ing them berths on good ships.
