doned at Manga Reva, in +he S9uth |
Seas, after haying taken fire at sea. She |
was bought by Captain Thayer, who |
brought the ship here, after great |
deal of trouble. There was still more
trouble experience before American
registry could be obtained by act of |
Congress, but since that time things |
have gone along swimmingly with the |
Manga Reva On her first trip out of |
port she ran to Honolulu in twelve days, |
going thence with a cargo to Phila- |
leIpuia IN l07 days-the best Cape |
Horn passage last year by any of The |
Honolulu sugar packets-and now the |
ship makes the ran from Philadelphia |
to Cavite in 123 days, as reported yes-t

trast to that of the large ship Daylight, |
now 204 days out on the trip from New
Y ork for Japan.-Chronicle, March IL |
