1t Is reported that the 'Lennox"
carried away two dead mules when
she left Hilo. Why she took them
away isn't known. Perhaps because
it seemed desirable to keep the fact
from being known. Perhaps they
couldn't afford to bury them at Hilo
The probabilities are that there will
be good many more lead ones before
the transport reaches Manila. Fifty
days on his feet in stall is rather too
much for the obstinancy OF even al
mule. If, as is stated, the orders that
the "Lennox" had were the same as
those OF the other transports that
came here there will be trouble for
some one Of the stock arrives at Manila
