KEDCE ANCHORS
AND CALM SEAS
1T is IN THESE CONCERNED IN saw
ING THE MANCHUR1A is NOW FGXED-1F BE KEPT
FROM POUNDING HERSELF TO UNTIL APPLIANCES
CAN BE BROUGHT, ENTERTAINED

But nobody has any hope that the 10
cal efforts can accomplish such a
thing. The anchors that are being
placed near the vessel were sent out in
response to a request from Captain
Saunders. He has from the first re-
allied the danger of his vessel, and he
has understood that the only hope of
saving her lay i'm the speedy placing
of kedge anchors so that she could get
lines out to them and start to haul
If the vessel could use her own pow
er in trying to back off it would be
worth the help of dozen small island
boats. But with the port engine out
of commission her poweS in that re-
spect is cut down one-half. How much
longer the starboard engine viii remain
intact is uncertain. A few hours of
heavy swell and it would probably be
rendered useless.
September is the month when the
strong northerly swell sets across the
Pacific. With such a high sea setting
in on the helpless vessel a few days
*of pounding on the reef would break
her back and fill her full Of holes.
F. w. Klebahn of H. Hackfeld & Co.
returned from the vessel yesterday af-
ternOon shortly before o'clock. He
said that there was no particular
change in the situation. One anchor
had been put out off the forward bow,
and the work of placing the other an
chors was in progress. Captain Smith
of the Pacific Dredging Company Sas
been called into consultation by Kle-
balm and is acting as adviser to the
representative of the local agents.
Klebahn and Smith, accompanied by
Port Captain Riley of the Pacific Mail,
left this morning in an automobile
shortly after 10 o'clock for Waimana-
10 and the scene of the wreck. Kle-
balm stated that there was nothing
special to report. He said that he did
not know whether they would remain
over night at the vessel or not 1t
would depend upon circumstances.
The baggage of the cabin passengers
was put aboard the scow Pioneer today
and landed at Honolulu this afternoon.
The steamer ]. A. Cummins left this
morning for the purpose of bringing
the remaining baggage of the steerage
passengers to the city. She took more
anchors and tackle
Reports from Waimanalo this morn
ing are to the effect that there was no
particular change with the vessel The
sea still continued calm and she had
not pounded so much. She appeared
to have righted herself a little and had
not such list to port as she had on
the previous day. Conditions aboal d
her seemed to be about the same.
The steamer Niihau returned last
night with Captain Haglund of the In
ter-Island Steam Navigation Company
aboard.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1906-08-23

A systematic effort is being made by
the local agents of the Pacific Mail S.
S. Company to secure all of the suit
able tackle and apparatus that will be
apt to prove of service in saving the
Manchuria. Until the proper applian-
ces are gathered and put into service
no effort is to be made to pull the YES
sci off the reef.
Neither the S. S. Restorer nor the
revenue cutter Manning tried to pull
the boat off the reef yesterday. Nor
indeed will there be any particular eff
fort made today to pull the boat off.
1t is realized that such a thing can
hardly be attempted with any hope of
success at the present time. There are
not many towing hawsers at present
at the scene of the wreck and neither
the Manning nor the Restorer can af-
ford to risk breaking or losing their
lines until more tackle is available.
The purpose of keeping those boats by
the Manchuria is to hold her stern
steady as much as possible in order to
prevent her being earned further in
shore.
The principal reliance of hauling is
placed in the wrecked vessel herself.
When the four Hedge anchors are in
position and she has suitable lines out
to them then she will start up her win
ches and may possibly try to kedge
herself Off The Restorer and Man
ming may also pull on her stern. If it
be considered certain that the cables
and anchors will be able to Withstand
the strain of trying to pull the vessel
off the reef, then every effort will be
made to get her into deep water, but If
it develop that she will run the risk
of parting any of those lines and Grip
ping her means of holding on to the
kedge anchors, she will not try to get
off.
Nobody has any hope that she will
be able to accomplish anything i'm this
respect at the present time. It is only
in the vague hope that a turn of luck
might start the boat from her present
place into deep water. The chief reli-
ance as stated yesterday, is placed in
Captain Metcalf and practically every
thing that is being done now is pre-
liminary to his arrival and assumption
of charge of saving the vessel If the
efforts to hold the vessel down and
keep her from pounding on the reef
prove successful, the local agents and
Captain Saunders of the Manchuria
will be satisfied.
The danger to the Manchura in her
present position exposed as she is
to the open sea, is from the heavy
swell which causes her to pound upon
the reef. If she undergoes such treat
ment long there will be no further use
trying to salve her. With this danger
always before him, Captain Saunders
and the local agents as well propose if
it be possible to kedge the vessel off.

of investigating the possibility of es-
tablishing direct telephone cimmunica-

Reports from Waimanalo this after
noon at 1880 o'clock were that there
had been no particular change in con-
ditions. The weather was calm and
there was not much swell. 1.-THE vessel

The Eleu and Pioneer left the Man
churia shortly after o'clock this
morning. The wrecked vessel was maxi
ing water in the forward compartments
but there did not seem to have been
any appreciable increase since the last
reports. According to the reoprts the
machinery is still intact and no imme-
date apprehension on this score was
felt.
The vessel pounded considerably yes

came up. The cables out to the two
