Ahead CT Schedule.

The steamship Hongkong Maru ar
rived from San Francisco about $50 p
m. yesterday, ahead of schedule time
She was not expected in until this
morning, but she just couldn't be kept
back, at least so her officers say. The
Hongkong Maru left San Francisco on
January 30th at 1 p. m. Splendid
weather was experienced all the way to
Honolulu. She has a small passenger
list for the Orient and six iay-overs for
this port. Those remaining here are
r. Redman. Mrs. Redman and two chill
dren, A. T. Paul, United States Com
missioner Robert C. Forsyth. The yes
sci brought two hundred bags of mail
and has 1000 tons of freight for the
Orient. There are also on board thirty
deported Chinese, who We're rounded
up in the Eastern States. and who
are getting free trip back to their ma
tive land. 1t seems that whenever a
Chinaman in the States gets ready to
go back home he surrenders himself to
the authorities, who do the rest for
him. One of the Pakes on board the
Hongkong Maru, when arrested, was
taken to the place of detention. On the
way he remarked reassuringly to his
captors: mo lock up. me alice lite, me
ike go alice same emma sue. Stew
ard Richards has replaced Steward

Phaeton, Captain Fleet, sailed in search
of the missing sloop of war Condor, and
will go as far as Honolulu and possibly
to Tahiti. Having an abundant supply
of coal and provisions on board the
Phaeton was only waiting for news
from Honolulu by the China and Sierra
before leaving port. Officers from the
cruiser boarded both steamers upon
their arrival, but learned that nothing
had been seen of the Condor at Homo
lulu. The Condor sailed from Esqui-
