Sheridan and CITY of Pu. bla.

The United States army transport
Sheridan will not be ready to sail for
Manila before a month, says the San
Francisco Chronicle. Inspectors of
Hulls and Boilers Bolles and Bulger
held an inspection on board at the re-
quest of the Government authorities,
and found that the transports boilers
would require considerable repairing
before the big ship would be ready for
another trip across the Pacific. Under
a hydrostatic test of the boilers made
yesterday afternoon two socket bolts
blew out, and 1t will take, in the opin-
ion of the inspectors, about twenty
five days to repair the damage and put
the boilers in proper condition again.
The Sheridan's boilers have received
pretty hard and constant treatment
since she went into commission, and
while the discovery of weakness Is a
disappoint Lent to the Quartermaster's
department here. as it will upset their
calculations considerably, the Govern
ment officials are well satisfied that
the weak places made themselves
manifest in port, and not while the
transport was far out on the Pacific.
The City Of Puebla will probably be
rechartered to carry the troops intend
ed for the Sheridan.

SUNDAY RUNAWAY
SERIOUS RESULTS

BaIlentyne's Children Injured.
(From Saturdays DailyD

tFrom Saturdays Daily
There was quite an exciting and dis
astrous runaway out towards Waikiki
yesterday afternoon. Mrs. J. A. Nc
Candless, together with her little boy
and two Of Mr.. and Mrs. c. G. Ballen-
tyne's little girls, had started out from
the home OF the latter for a drive to
the beach. They had gone but short
distance when the driver lost control
of the horse. The animal ran quite !
distance and turned two or three cor
ners safely. But as the rig was turned
into the junction of the Waikiki road
and King street the horse veered and
went straight for the fence, striking a
telephone pole. The carriage was up
set and all the occupants were thrown
out. Mrs. McCandless had her fore
arm broken and received numerous
bruises, The Ballentyne children were
badly hurt, one having an arm bro
ken and several bad cuts. The other
was bruised about the face. Little
James McCandless escaped with a
bump on his head, and the driver got
off without any injury. The carriage
was demolished, the top being carried
clean off. While the injuries received
were many and severe, the only Won
der is that they were not worse.

TO BE DOWN TOWN.
The New Banks Temporary Quar-.
tsrs Are Secured.

Full advices regarding the Ameri-
can Bank did not arrive by the China
as had been expected. The reason
was that the Doric arrived in San
Francisco just as the China was leav-
ing. Therefore there was no oppor
tunity OF answering letters sent by the
Doric. Therefore, the local heads Of
the syndicate will await these advices
before making their application for a
charter. Mr.. Lilienthal left San fran
cisco for New York and Washington
on the 18th. His trip will be OF about
three weeks duration, after which he
will come to Honolulu.
Temporary quarters have been ar
ranged for in the Campbell block.
These will be used unless permanent
quarters are decided upon before the
opening Of the institution.
Formal notice of allotment OF stock
to applicants. and Of the calling in of
the first assessment Is to be made In a
few days. Maj. Purdy, who arrived
by the China, and who was formerly
stationed here as United States Pay
master, is slated for the position of
paying teller. He is man Of wide
banking experience, and comes highly
recommended to the new institution.
Mr.. Boyd, whose appointment as sec
rotary and assistant accountant was
spoken of in the Advertiser some time
ago, is also here. These two appoint
ments, together with Mr.. Cooper,
chief accountant, are the only ones
that will not be made from this side.
1t requires much time to start a
bank and to get 1t in good running or
der. Organization must be perfected
and connections established. This is
all being done as rapidly as possible
by the new organization.
