Many Ships Come In.

mauy SulpS SOu0 Al.
Yesterday saw the arrival in this port
of four deep-water vessels. Two of
them came from Newcastle, coal laden:
two came from San Francisco loaded
with everything which goes to make up
a general cargo.
Three were barks and one was a
schooner. They were the American bark
Edward May, Captain Hanson, eighteen
days from the Golden Gate, with gem
eral merchandise consigned to Alexan-
der & Baldwin; the American schooner
Aloha Captain Fry, eighteen days from
San Francisco with general merchan-
disc consigned to H. Hackfeld & Co.;
the British bark Woollahra, Captain
Thompson, f1fty-three days from New
castle, with $50 tons of coal consigned
to Alexander & Baldwin, and 537 tons
of coal in transit to Eureka, and the
American bark Palmyra, Captain KEEL
lar, sixty-eight days from Newcastle,
with coal.
The Edward May and the Aloha sail
ed from San Francisco on the same
day, and had something of a race to
port. It was practically tie, although
the Edward May arrived inside of the
harbor the first.
There are enough ships in this har-
Dor at the present time to keep things
hustling. The railway wharves are ac-
commodating the majority Of them, al
though things are lively all along the
shore
The illustration appearing above gives
an excellent idea of the business that
goes on at the navy wharves at times.
A day or so ago this photograph was
taken. The picture is perhaps the best
which has ever been taken of the ship
ping at the navy wharves.
At the extreme left of the picture can
be seen the United States tug Iro-
quois. She was then, and is still, lying
at the wharf known as navy wharf No.
The four-masted schooner is the Ma
Mia, which was discharging coal at
navy wharf No. 2. The Manila sailed
the other day for the Sound.
The big bark, whose stern looms up
so prominently in the photograph, is
the Big Bonanza. She was also dis
charging coal on navy wharf No. 2,
for the army.
The great transport Logan shows up
well at navy wharf No. 1.
Between the transport and the bark
Big Bonanza can be seen the light
tie island at the outlet of the harbor
To the right OF the transport are
shown the sheds on the Pacific Mail
wharf.
Arrived From Hamburg.
At noon on Tuesday the German bark
Tellus arrived from Hamburg, after a
voyage of 155 days. She met with adj
verse winds during the greater part of
the trip, otherwise she would have made
better time.
Arrived From Newcastle.
The schooner Robert Searles has ar
rived from Newcastle with a cargo of
coal. Captain ]. Piltz is her com
mander.
Piltz has two brothers in Honolulu.
One of them is the master of the Inter
Island steamer Waialeale, while the
other is the second mate on the steam
er Mauna Loa. The father of these
three is the commander of the new bar
kentine John Tufts, whose brother was
the master of the William Carson. They
are a sea-faring family.
Cruise of the Irooueis.
1t is understood that the United
States tug Iroquois will not start on her
cruise among the islands of the Pacific
until the return to Honolulu of Cap
tain Merry. Should Captain Merry not
return to this port before the first of
July the Iroqouis will probably not
make the cruise at all, as from July to
October the weather to the northwest
of these islands is very severe.
Garonne Arrives at Frisco.
The transport Garonne, from Manila,
Nagasaki and Honolalu arrived at San
Francisco just as the navy transport
Solace sailed out of that port for Hon
elulu. A great deal of anxiety had been
felt on the coast concerning the Ga
rome, and it was thought that some
thing serious had happened to her ma
ehinery. Her arrival was not reported
in the last papers received from the
coast, Cor the reason that the Garonns
only got there as the Solace was leav-
ing port.
