Blown Ashore.
Bad weather continues off east side
of Maui, and last Friday the schooner
Hanley parted a stern line, but luckily
did not drift ashore. The same day
big lighter used in loading the schoon-
er Quickstep was blown ashore. The
Tighter was loaded with scrap iron, and
the heavy wind caused her lines to
part and carried her ashore. The Clau-
dine reported that the weather off
Huelo was so bad that the steamer
Kaiulani could not enter, and had to
lie outside and wait for the weather
to moderate before she could discharge
her freight, which includes a lot of
heavy machinery for Huelo plantation.
When the ClaUdine passed the Kaiu-
lani she was still ying off Huelo.
Shorter Quarantine.
AS a result of experiments in disin-
fecting ships with a gas known as sui
phur dioxide, recently made at the
quarantine station at Angel Island in
San Francisco bay, the belief is ex-
pressed by the experts in charge that
the time of quarantine can be short
ened from twelve to thirty-six hours.
The experiments in question have
been made the subject of a report to
the marine hospital service headquar-
tiers in this city. and should the results
be borne out by future tests to be
made a great economy of time from a
commercial standpoint will have been
gained Star.
