America Maru Z
Brought Mail

The postofIice authorities deny the
story that the America Maru brought
no mail to this port when she arrived
from San Francisco last Sunday. They
also ridicule the idea that the post Of.
flee people in San Francisco should
deem II dangerous to send mail In the
Japanese boat even to Honolulu"
Speaking of the subject, Louis Ke-
make said this morning: "As a mat
ter Of fact the Maru did carry mail. She
had eight bags for Honolulu and two
left San Francisco Monday. August l..
The Logan left couple OF hours be-
fore the Maru and for some reason or
other the two days mall which was
ready TO be sent off, was placed on
board the Logan. This must have been
done through some mistake. The Maru
only took the mail which had accu-
INFLATED between her time Of departure
and that of the Logan.
'As far as the statement is con-
cerned that the San Francisco post Of
fee authorities would not risk sending
the mail by the Maru II is absurd. This
Is shown by the fact that they actually
sent mail by the Maru. Whether they
sent eight bags or eight hundred bags
does not make bit Of difference. Ii
they sent mail at all the number of
bags would not make the slightest diff

she is loaded to her full capacity she
draws sc feet inches. When she
sailed she was about 5000 tons OF cargo
short. or an amount greater than that
