THE TOWN SURPRISED

The first report was hardly credited.
No body expected the entire fleet to
arrive together. 1t had been expected
that the cruiser division accompanied
by the collier Pompey, would be the
first to make it's appearance and then
trailing several days later would be the
big battleships. But Holt was right.
The entire aggregation of warships
was passing Kaena Point and was APP
preaching Honolulu harbor in complete
formation a perfect fleet-in-b being;
every vessel keeping the line of forma-
tion perfectly and holding off equidis-
tant from the others, but all within
signalling distance of the rest of the
fleet
AS soon as the news of the sighting
of the fleet was known, Captain Rod
man U. S. N. got up steam in the little
launch from the Iroquois and went out
to the mouth of the harbor to examine
the conditions at the entrance He
felt certain that the big fleet would
be brought into the harbor by orders
of Admiral Bob Evans and he wanted
to see exactly how the mouth of the
channel was, as it was thought Rod
man would probably be called upon to
bring some of the fleet into the har-
bor.
The pilots too began to liven up and
to bring out their full force. Captains
Macaulay, Saunders, Lorenzen and
Cameron were at the pilot house al
most as the fleet came into view. There
is a difference of at least two hours in
the time from Makaha and Barber's
Point and not until $3.50 o'clock did
Diamond Head Charlie pick up the
fleet. When he did the whistle of the
electric light works began giving forth
such prolonged blasts that the public
Immediately surmised that the fleet
and not the belated mail steamer Ven
tura from San Francisco was being
signalled.
1t was hard to pick up all of the
boats the instant the fleet rounded the
Point Some of the watchers at the
pilot house could not make out the
seven boats reported by Holt. Others
were sure that they saw the seven YES
sells. Captain Rodman came back in
to the harbor and stopped beneath the
pilot house with his launch to get a
line on the vessels.
How many of them are there" ex-
claimed Rodman to those on the look
out.
Seven, Sir answered Captain Ma,
! caulay. I'VE think the battleships
are in the lead"
Look at the leading ship" said Rod
man "and see if she is floating a blue
pennent with two white stars in il
and then see If one Of the cruisers is
! showing a red pennent with a white
star Those will be the only signals
| flying as they indicate the tlagships.'
! Gradually as the vessels came neare
and nearer these flags could be mad'
out. THE leading vessel shows th'
| blue flag" shouted Captain Macaula!
"and the fourth vessel the red one
And this was correct. As the YES
sells came up in line the battleship'
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1903-12-16

were in the lead. First rode the Ken
lucky the flagship of Admiral Evans,
then the Wisconsin, then the Oregon,
then the new cruiser New Orleans on
which was Admiral Cooper and then
came the other cruisers. The view of
the vessels was perfect. The air was
perfectly clear and the formation of
the line as we'll as the outline of the
boats could readily be seen as they
neared the land.
They are hitting it up" claimed the
pilots. They will be up in about an
hour" In few minutes all four of
the pilots boarded their boats and
started out of the harbor to meet the
fleet. Captains Sanders and Macaulay
went in the first boat and Captain
Lorenzen and Cameron in the other. 1t
was twenty minutes past o'clock
when the Kentucky steamed up off tine
mouth of the harbor and came to
stop, then rapidly followed the other
vessels at intervals of from five to ten
minutes.
The quarantine launch was among
the first to reach the side of the flag
ship. Then the Customs launch Wa
ter Witch with Governor Carter Sc
cretary Atkinson, Superintendent of
Public Works Holloway and Collector
Stackable aboard soon went out of
the harbor and Joined the fleet of
small craft that was rapidly surround
ing the various warships.
Over at the Naval Station every
body was busy The Iroquois was
hauled over from the Eva side of
Naval Slip No. to the Waikiki side
in order to make room for one of the
battleships. The various Naval scows
with coal piled high upon them for
the fuelling of the fleet were gotten in
available places at the Naval wharves.
Admiral Terry arrived before the ves-
sells came into the harbor. This morn
ing the rear armiraPs pennent the blue
flag with two white stars, was flying
at the Naval Station but as soon as
! the Kentucky arrived. this flag was

Massive and big and strong there
came out of the western sea today the
greatest aggregation of warships that
it has even been Honolulu's fortune to
see. After a long 3400 mile cruise all
the way from the Orient, one of Uncle
Sans most powerful collection Of sea
fighters sighted the island of Oahu
before day break this morning and by
9:3O o'clock this morning lay at an
chor off the harbor. 1t was a beauti-
full and inspiring sight to those ashore
it was a welcome view of land to those
on the fleet. They came together in
most impressive formation with the
flagship Kentucky in the lead then
the battleship Wisconsin, then the
bulldog of the Navy the battleship Ore
gon, then the cruisers New Orleans,
and CINCINNATI and Raleigh and AL
bany.
The news of the coming of the fleet
was known two hours before Diamond
Head Charlie picked them up off Bar
ber's Point. II was the people at Ma
kaha who first reported the advent OF
the fleet. The vessel passed within
three miles of the shore at $50 o'clock
this morning. Chris Holt saw them
and he realized that an event in the
history of Honolulu was approaching
He telephoned the news long before I
o'clock to Honolulu that the vessels
were coming "Seven of them" he eX-
claimed.

WHAT IS A COUGH?

A spasdomic effort to expel the mu-
Gus from the bronchial tubes. A cold
causes a more abundant secretion of
mucus, and when the lungs and bron-
chial tubes are inflamed they are eI-
tremely sensitive to the irritation. I'M
less care is taken, the cold may result
in pneumonia, which is swift and dea1 l.
ly. If the cold is a lingering one, the
more leisurely but equally fatal con-
sumption may set in. Do not neglect
a cold or cough. Take Chamberlain
Cough Remedy. 1t always cures and
cures quickly. Sold by all dealers.

A TRIO OF ADMIRALS

hauled down and a red flag with the
white stars was substituted. Admiral
Cooper the commander of the cruiser
division was showing a red flag when
the New orleans arrived off the port
but when the change with the Admi-
rails flag at the Naval Station occurred
Admiral Cooper hauled down his red
flag and hoisted a white one. This
change of signals while not possessing
particular significance to the landsmen
is obligatory by Naval regulation. AS
the ranking officer of the fleet in port
Admiral Evans displayed the blue flag,
as the second officer, Admiral Terry
showed the red flag while Admiral
Cooper as the third in rank of ad-
miralS, showed the white flag.
By bringing his entire fleet to port
together, Admiral Evans surprised
nearly every body. Few people had
had any idea that the battleship divi-
sion would pick up the cruisers The
cruisers had been steaming very slow
ly up to the time they arrived off Mid
way last Saturday The suppositiOn
was until this morning, that the bat
tleshps would do the same thing. Ad-
miral Evans caught up with the ad-
vance squadron however some where
between Midway and Honolulu. When
he caught them they all crowded on
steam and hurried to this port in fast
/ time. The collier POmpey Gld not ar
rive with the fleet but was left far
behind.
The work of coaling the feet VIII
now be a much bigger proposition than
the local officers of the Naval station
had expected. If Admiral Evans does
not intend to hurry the cOaling how
ever the task will not be very difficult.
