The San Francisco call., 1904-08-09

The Oceanic Steamship Company's
liner Ventura arrived yesterday from
Honolulu and the Antipodes. She
brought 259 passengers and a small
but valuable cargo. The freight in
cluded 2S42 ingots of copper, AL in
gots of tin and forty boxes of British
sovereigns, valued at $1,O00,000.
Among the passengers from Homo
lulu was a bevy of fair students re-
turning from summer vacations to
Mills College. Another passenger
was w. A. BisseH of the Santa Fe,
who, with Mrs. Bissell, his son and
some young friends, has been spend
ing few weeks at the island port
W. A. Setchell, a botany instructor at
Berkeley, was also a passenger on the
liner.
Among the passengers from Aus
tralia were some prominent mining
engineers. One of these. Thomas Pas
coe, is said to represent "A London
syndicate which is one of the largest
operators in the world. William Todd
Weir is also a mining engineer, we'll
known on the African gold coast and
in New Zealand.
II. A. Wood, a coal passer on the
Ventura, died from heat exhaustion on
the outward voyage.
Pilot John Silovich brought the
Ventura in from sea and showed that
a big steamer can be handled just as
easily as toWboat. He took the liner
alongside the Oceanic dock in style
that has been very rare since the days
when Captain Carey used to bring the
Moana to the same wharf.
