will be the first appearance of the Pu-
nahou team and after they have been
seen in action line can be drawn on
the merits of the three teams.
The makeup of the Punahou team
is very strong this season and they
should make a stiff bid for the cham
pionship.

in their lineup today. G. Judd has
developed into a crack and will play
one of the halves for the Blue and
Gold R. r. Cation will captain the
team, and with him to take the lead
the Punahous should put up a stiff
fight.
The Iolanis will lineup about the
same as last Saturday. They have
fast combination and if the Punahous
defeat them they will have to play the
game in good form.

OF the outing, and whether in quest
OF pleasure, land or gold mines, the
Tribune wishes him unbounded sue

admiration for the female cow

accident happened or as to the extent

son and wife. who were rescued from
the barge.
Neither could permission be obtained
to interview Capt. Anderson and his
wife, who are TO be taken to their
home III New York on the return of
the steamer. tomorrow night.
The only information obtainaIlc wa;
from several of the passengers. each Of
whom spoke favorably of the way in
which Capt. Johnson and his; men be
navcG, handling the steamer and the
passengers so that no unnecessary ex-
citer.ent was caused. The tug Zouave
was approaching Hell, Gate with 10
light coal barses in tow, three abreast,
and thr one that was struck WIS on
the rear. sWaying about in the heavy
undert0W.
The Hall. so far as could he observed,
was taking her regular course down
the harbor. according to the testimony
of the passengers. when the tug with
the barges Was sighted. TIL. tug ana
the head bargeS were passed AL right
but on account of the strong tide and
the wind which VAS blowing strongly.

1t was case of either running down
the barge or Of running the iIuIl onto
the rocks and perhaps injurng many

the result that the barge WAS cut in

over tho eide OF the steamer
Captain Anderson and wife as soon
as the accident happened had rushed
to the side Of the barge and caught
one of the ladders that are suspended
from the sides of the Hall, and in this
way they climbed to the deck Of the
steamer. AS soon Ms it was found that
there were no others on board tho
barge the Hall continued on her trip.
1t is understood that Capt. Anderson
blamcs the officers Of the steamer for
the collision, but because oc the fact
that no one was allowed to see him, no
statement could be Obtained
