IT'LL the stormy weather continues
and steamers arriving from the
other Islands tell tales of expert
ences with the elements which are
not often heard in these parts
Many persons booked for passage on
the Mauna Loa had expected that she
would sail at s o'clock yesterday morn
ing for Lahaina, Maalaea, Kona and
fKau ports, but they were doomed to
disappointment. Four or five times has
the departure of the Mauna Loa now
been postponed; now she is on the
boards to get away today at a. m.
Reports of rough weather on the
windward Islands brought by the
steamer Ke Au Hou and the uncertain
ty as to when the storm is likely to
cease has resulted in the tying up of
the Mauna Loa in this port, much to
the Inconvenience of her prospective
passengers. There were great many
people on the Inter-Island wharf at the
time that the steamer was supposed to
leave for Hawaii and they anxiously
awaited the decision of. President Ena
of the Inter-Island Company, Captain
Simerson of the Mauna Loa and Cap
tain Haglund, who were consulting as
the dQNlSdUIHly VI dllOWiu6 Tic Ooe1e
to sail There was much disappoint-
ment when it was announced that the
Mauna Loa would not sail until today.
Captain Sinerson, however, believed
that it would be wiser to wait; no good
could be accomplished by taking the
vessel out in the storm and great
deal of harm might result. He was
very certain that it would be impossible
to approach Lahaina and he would
have left Maui out altogether and TAX
| en- the Mauna Loa direct to Kona.
According to the latest reports the
! steamer Kinau of Wilder's line was in
Hilo. She was to have sailed from that
| port yesterday and is expected to ar
rive here some time today. 1t is said
/ that the Kinau left out the Island OF
Maui on the upward run and that she
transferred passengers for Maui to the
IClaudine. The route of the latter
steamer is on the side of the Islano
which is generally the smoother during
! stormy weather from the south.
The steamers Kinau, Claudine anc
Lehua are all expected to arrive to-

WASHINGTON, Jan. pa report
from Captain Cooper, commanding the

ton in the speed of the vessel, owing
to foul bottom. The Iowa went into
drydock last May, nearly eight months
ago, and on her recent cruise down the
Pacific Coast showed falling off of
nearly Is per cent in her regulation
speed. Captain Cooper urges that the
vessel should be locked for q thorough

 Again, the day before the battle, when he detached Watson to go to Guantanamo to coal, the latter pro- tested against leaving. Sampson re- piled that he was sure that Cervera would not come out, that he intended to leave himself, whereupon Watson protested in even stronger terms, say ing that the absence of both the certainly induce Ceryera to make dash. And so it proved.
 It is claimed that the famous dis patch claiming credit for the victory was not written by Sampson. If this be true, it only shows how his staff managed him, that they should dare to send such a dispatch without sub- hitting it to him.
 In view of these and many other smaller facts, Secretary Longs peev- ish complaints that the Senate had re- fused to promote the officers as recom- mended by the President seem much out of place, especially when it is con- sidered that the Senate has at all time stood ready to confirm all naval nomi- nations submitted by the President except that unduly rewarding Samp- son, and that the President has delib- erately held back lower nominations, probably in the hope of forcing the Senate to do what he wanted in re- gard to the pet of the navy ring.
