SEA AND SHORE
The S.0.CarletOn Makes
A Fast Trip.
The KaimiIoa at Sea--ItaIian Man
0f-War-The Meade Takes
Coal Notes.

The principal event OF interest along
the front yesterday was the departure |
of the old Kaimiloa. In tow OF the
Eleu she left her berth at the Inter-Isl-
and wharf and went TO the transport
Meade. Yesterday was the frs. time
in many years that she had made any
money for her owners and il is easy
to see how she could have earned her
value many times over had she been
converted into a barge several months
ago. The unusual sight OF the old war
ship moving in the harbor caused
crowds OF wOrkmen along the docks 20
stop and gaze at her as she proceeded
on her way. She was greeted with
cheers by the crews OF the schooners
anchored near the marine railway as
she turned the lighthouse and the men
on the quarantine wharf saluted her as
she passed. II vas quite an event |
/ Her donkey engine whistle was kept
/ VERY busy answering the toots of the |
| steamers whistles that gr eted her as
/ she left the harbor She took about
800 tons OF coal 10 the Meade. During
the day the action OF the committee
of the Board of Health in refusing 20
lraise the quarantine on the island com
merce was freely discussed. There
seems TO be a general opinion along
1.-The front that the men who have been
confined so long on the island vessels
will take a step on the end Of the
month that will tie-up the boats for an
Indefinite period. II is said that as
1.-THE steamers arrive from the other ISL
lands their crews will moor them In ma
Wal row and come ashore in a body.
This will. Of course leave the boats so
lshort handed that they cannot be oper-
lated. The captains Of the deep water
vessels are having all sorts OF trouble
To keep their men aboard and on Satur-
Idpv night many OF the men from the
ships came ashore particularly from
the L. Il. Sutton. st. Francis, st. kath-
crime and Albert. The men from the
Henry B. Hyde also concluded TO come
ashore and were discharged and paid
on AT the COnsuTs Office yesterday.
lCaptain Merry, T. s. n. Lieut.. Com
Pond. L. s. n. and Mr.. Jas. Lyle made
a report 10 the American Consul yes
terday on the condition OF the bark
Seminole which was reported in an un-
fit condition for sea by the crew. From
the report of the surveyors II would
laDpear that they were making an eHort
Ito get their discharge here and so
ltrumped UP the charge of unseawOrth-
liness against the vessel. AS TO her
leaking It was found by the surveyors
that the Seminole made one-hat ar
Inch of water during the hour and 9
half they were aboard. This was no
an excessive amount of leakage for ;
vessel thirty-four years Of age. Some
repairs were found necessary and the!
were ordered made but no defects 4
imperil the safety of the vessel wer'
found. In the opinion of the boar
OF survey the complaint of the mate ant
crew is entirely without foundation AM
there is said to be an apparent repre-
hensibie collision between the mat
and the crew in the matter. Captain
TAYLOR says the crew were engaged a
Newcastle for the voyage to the SCUM
lvia Honolulu and that on arrival her
they asked for their discharge whic
was refused. This led to the charge
against the ship which on inyestiga
ton turned out to be without founda
ton as nearly all sailors yarns
Yesterday morning a foreign steamt
was telephoned coming from the cas-
She proved to be the unarmored Italia
cruiser Calabria from San Diego. Cal
tain Lorenzen went out TO her and
the commander wished to have no con
munication with the shore the pill
lanchored her from the boat. She le
San Diego on the 10th and called ne
for coal She will take about two hu-
bred and seventy tons and then proce'
to the Orient for orders. What n
destination will be is not known. Whi
at San Diego she received orders

The ship 5. ID. Carleton from Nc

est trip this season. Her run TO pc

way. She brings fertilizer and NJ
hundred tons of bags for the Hawah

made port yesterday. She brings Ter
lizer and had an uneventful run.
