TOO SOON
CHARGE FILED AGAINST TURK
AND LEWIS.
Shipping Masters and William Young
Prosecuted for Boarding the Arthur
sewall Before She Was Passed

United States District Attorney r. w.
BreCkous this morning filed criminal
infOrmatiOns against Oscar Lewis,
Frank j. Turk and William Young,
charging them with violating the Unit
ed States navigation laws, i'm board
ing a vessel arriving at Honolulu be-
fore she had been inspected and passed
by the customs and quarantine autho-
rites.
In his information Breckons alleges
that the three defendants on April l6,
boarded the American ship Arthur Sc
wall, when she arrived at the port Of
Honolulu, before the vessel had been
inspected or passed by either the Gus
toms or quarantine officials. An afti-
davit of Collector StaClable stating
that the men did so board the vessel
was filed with the information. Judge
Estee ordered bench warrants issued at
once for the three defendants, and or
dered them brought into court at two
o'clock this afternoon. Turk and Le-
wis are the well known shipping mas
ters, who go out to vessels to look af-
ter sailors, and Young is alleged to
have gone with them, on the occasion
of the visit to the Arthur Sewall.
The odiense with which the shipping
masters and Young are charged is a
violation of a United States statute,
punishable by a fine of not more than
$1OO, or imprisonment for not longer
than six months, or both.

MAKES FINE RECORD.
BARK NUUANU HERE FROM NEW
YORK.
only If Days Passing Cape Horn-Is
quite Deep with General Cargo-IIas
One Passenger.

Deep into the water with general
cargo, the American bark Nuuanu, Cap
tain JOsselyn, arrived this morning
from New York i'm the quickest time
that has been made i'm the last eight
years. She made the voyage In 1l2
days, and had she been two feet lighter,
Captain Josselyn declares that she
would have smashed all records for the
New York Honolulu run.
Some rough weather was experienced
shortly after leaving New York, but
from then, until the vessel arrived off
"The River as the Rio de la Platte in
South America is known to sea faring
men, she had pleasant weather. From
"The River" down toward the cape, the
vessel experienced a succession Of wes-
terly gales. The vessel made the Cape
i'm 60 days, she was only II days round
ing the Cape which is an exceptional
performance as the boat was detained
3S days there on her previous trip. Pass
ing Cape Horn, the weather was de-
ightful. the sun was shining and the
day was beautiful. There was a Won
derful rainbow arching the heavens
from the Cape clear across to the west
ward. Captain Josselyu has very
fine sketch of the Cape when the vessel
passed about eight miles away.
On the way up on this SIDE of the
Cape, the southeast trades were poor
but i'm 100 degrees west, the northeast
trades were picked up when the vessel
crossed the line and the run to port was
made in the surprisingly fast time of u
days.
No one was sick during the voyage
and there was nothing carried away or
any damage done. Robert Norris Dar-
rach of Philadelphia was the only pas
senger.
A large part Of the cargo consists of
general supplies for e. o. Hall and
cnmnHnN,s now store.

Sailors Whom Estee Aarwded Extra
Compensation Ask for $1,000 Damages
Each-Circuit Court Proceedings.

David Hall and Edward Woods, the
two negro sailors of the schooner Frank
w. Howe, who have lust secured judg-
ment for S240 each extra compensation
from the vessel, this morning began a
new proceeding, asking for $4,000 dam
ges in addition. The action is based
upon the same grounds as the former
suit, namely, the alleged bad food and
insuflicicncy Of food, on the trip Of the
schooner between New York and Maui
ritius and Honolulu.
In deciding the former case Judge
Estee left the way open for the pre-
sent proceeding. He held that the men
had not had sufficient food and that
the food had been badly prepared, but
dismissed the demand for damages,
without prejudice, on the ground that
as the men were still in the hospital
the amount of their damages could not
be estimated. In the new complaint,
filed this morning by r. W. Breckons
and j. j. Dunno, attorneys for the sal
lors, the sailors allege that they have
been made seriously i'll by the treat
ment that they received, and that the
effects of their sulferings will last as
long as they live.
