THE ALGOA IN THE HARBOR
HAS THIRTEEN THOUSAND TONS
OF FREIGHT.
Pulled off the Reef This Morning by
the Tug Eleu-Biggest Vessel Ever
Seen Here.

The big steamer Algoa was hauled off
the reef at o'clock this morning by
the tug Eleu. At o'clock she entered
the hafbor The Algoa is the largest
vessel that ever came to Honolulu.
Much difficulty was experienced in get
ting her to an anchorage, as there was
no spare room for her to turn round in
the harbor. With her stern near the
lighthouse, her bow was close to the
ships at Likelike wharf.
The Algoa had a narrow escape at
the entrance to the harbor Her enor-
nous weight would have made it inn
possible to get her off had she once got
solidly aground. As it was she was
on the bottom for about four hours. No
damage is thought to have been done.
Captain Hansford did not want any
pilot, he said, last night, when the pilot
boat went alongside. Captain MCCau-
ley of the pilot house saw the position
of the ocean monster as she swung
around at the entrance to the channel.
He came to the conclusion that she
must be aground and made all possible
haste to the scene. On arriving at the
vessel he was told that he was not
wanted.
You're ashore, aren't you?" yelled
the pilot. A voice from the Algoa an
swered don't know" After making
some soundings and finding that the
bow of the Algoa was on the reef the
pilot boat returned. The Eleu went out
as soon as possible and managed to get
the endangered vessel to a safe place
of anchorage. The Iroquois also got
up steam and went out, but she did
not get there till after the Algoa was
free.
The Algoa is a British steamer, built
in Sunderland, England, in 1896 She
is one of the largest freight carriers
afloat. She has on board about 10000
tons Of freight, 224O being for this port.
The Algoa's length is AIS feet and her
width SO feet. AS she veered round
near the Victoria in the harbor this
morning it looked as though she could

.FUM|GAT|NG THE FREIGHT
BIG CARGO BEING TREATED to
SULPHUR.
Engine Started up After Midnight and
Running all Forenoon--Algoa Ship
ment to Follow.

Six hundred tons of freight, brought
by the Gaelic, is being fumigated at
the Pacific Mail wharf The Board OF
Health required that every particle OF
merchandise from the Orient should be
disinfected thoroughly, all of her
freight was, therefore, transferred di-
rectly from the steamer to the fumi-
eating room.
After midnight the engine was start
ed up by Jack McVeigh and assistants
and sulphur fumes soon began to pour
into the room. This continued all of
the forenoon. 1t is thought that any
bacilli in the Gaelics cargo is now
about thoroughly cooked.
Yes, some of the merchandise
cargo is probably injured" replied
an officer of the Board of Health, but
that is not our fault. Attention was
called to some delicate fabrics i'm the
freight, but there is no way for such to
escape fumigation. One piece of goods
is as dangerous as another when ii
comes to transporting q few microbes. -
AS soon as this cargo is out the AL
goa's merchandise will be fumigated.
This is a big shipment, from both
Hongkong and Japan
Sulphur is now used exclusively here
for fumigating purposes. Tests were
made some months ago and it proved
to be superior to formalin and the other
pew-fangled preparations. Formalin
is used largely as dsinfectant
