AWOKE WHEN
THE SHIP STRUCK
H. G.. MINES OF Los ANGELES
HEARD THE ORDER TO RE
VERSE THE ENGINES.

II. G. Mines a real estate broker of
Los Angeles was on board of the Man
churia when she struck He was one
of the few who were awake. He rose
early and went up on deck and after
standing there a few minutes he heard
the order to reverse He then looked
ahead and saw what he thought was
land. 1t seemed to him as if huge
swell lifted the ship in the air and let
it down where it settled with a jar.
There was absolutely no excitement
among the cabin passengers" said Mr..
Mines in speaking of his experience ut
was only when the Orientals became
frightened that there was anything like
trouble. They were quickly silenced
however The officers of the ship act
ed as they should and no blame should
be attached to the captain for one mis-
take. He certainly suffered yester-
day"

SMALL HOPE
FOR THE LINER
CAPTAIN OLSON OF THE FEAR
LESS RETURNED THIS MORNING
HAS FEW HOPES FOR VESSEL.

The tug Fearless arrived from the
scene of the going aground of the Man
churia this morning in order that her
c aptain and crew might obtain a little
sleep They have been without sleep
since yesterday morning.
The Fearless lost a part of her anchor
last night and was forced to cut her
lines to the Manchuria i'm order to right
herself and get into position to give
aid again. The seas were quite heavy
at the time.
Captain Olson of the Fearless does
not believe that there is much hope for
the big liner. He said: Il fear that
she is on the beach for good and all
Nothing seems to be able to bulge her
and probably she will remain there I'M
til she breaks up.
THE Manchuria is hung about mid
ships as far as could be learned by
those working with her and she is hung
there solidly. A tidal wave might move
her but that is all"
do you believe that she will there
fore break up?" was asked of the Cap
ia in.
Il do not know, she is in a bad way"
was the reply, with a shrug of the
shoulders which spoke plainly what
chances the big ship had in the estima-
ton of Captain Olson.

"A DEAR LITTLE
SHIPWRECK"
FAIR LADY PASSENGER STATES
HER VIEWS OF THE WRECK
WHAT PASSENGERS ARE DOING.

ooh, it was the dearest little ship
the fair lady passengers from the Man
churia, Just think / have been in a
real live wreck and was not scared, OH
no, not the least little tiny bit. 1t
was the most accommodating ship
wreck | ever heard about Oh, but
can't l write heaps and heaps of stuff
about it to my friends and won't they
be jealous" And the aforesaid fair
lady passenger fairly danced with de-
light. But she sobered in a moment
at the thought of her name appearing
in the newspapers. No, she failed to
see any pleasure of sending a newspaper
clipping of an interview with her to her
friends. mo, don't put it i'm please
don't or I'll not be nice to any more
newspapermen. And that is why her
name is not mentioned.
The passengers from the Manchurla
are at the different hotels of the city,
They are for the most part resting af-
ter their hard day of yesterday. To-
morrow they will sally forth and visit
all the point of interest about the city
and a number are planning a trip to
the Volcano.
General James F. Smith and his party
are stopping at the Hawaiian Hotel
but today the General has departed
for parts unknown. He, nor any mem
Der of his party would not say where, 81
will be back tonight" he remarked as
he left but today l sleep all day"
There does not seem to be a single
passenger who is vexed at the prospect
of a wait in Honolulu of two or three
weeks They all are delighted with
the prospects of a stay here long
enough to thoroughly explore Hawaii,
Two or three commercial men stated
that their business would probably suf-
fer in the far east if they did not get
out there soon but they remarked d.
Dramatically that nothing could be
done and one quoted "They also serve
who also stand and wait" And in the
meantime they proceeded to have a
good time.
The only questions that they ask are
not regarding the next boat but as to
the fate of the Manchuria. They all
express regret for Captain Saunders

RUSH
FOR UPPER DECK
STOPPED BY QUARTERMASTER
WHO SHUT THE GATES ON
THEM-CLARK TELLS STORY.

w. A. Graham Clark, special agent
o fthe Department of Commerce anG
Labor was on board of the big liner
when she struck. He paid high tri-
butte to the way the officers took charge
of the ship Immediately after she struck
and kept down all disturbances.
The Chinese steerage wanted to get up
onto the upper deck and made a rush
for it. But the quartermaster shut the
gates in their faces and they were kept
back. That was absolutely the only
excitement that prevailed. Every one
seemed joking about the way the ship
tried to convert herself into a train and
go over land.
The officers deserve credit for the
way they had the situation in hand
Immediately after they struck"

GOVERNMENT LAWS
LIVED UP TO
THE PASSENGERS OF THE MAN
CHURIA UNDERWENT MEDICAL
EXAMINATION.

The custom house officers and the
doctors were not long in reaching the
wreck yesterday as they went out on
the tug Fearless. All were examined
before they were allowed to land and
thus the Government regulations were
lived up to. The rules however were
not enforced rigidly however on account
of the disaster.
All of the Asiatics were examined by
the doctors and they were brought to
Honolulu last evening by the Kinau
and placed on the island. The Jap
anese Consul was instrumental i'm get
ting a number of the Japanese ashore
this morning.
The mail reached Honolulu by the
Kinau and was delivered at the Office
about ten o'clock.

MRS. DUNBAR
SHE SURPRISES HER FRIENDS
WHO THOUGHT SHE WAS TO
MARRY PRENTIss N. GRAY.

She returned to her island home
Genevieve Dowsett Dunbar.
There is a double romance in con-
nection with her return, aside from
the adventure of shipwreck, and there
is the story of proud womans fine
scorn.
This is what the San Francisco Bull
letin says:
STOCKTON, August 13.-Miss Gene
We've Dowsett, who is said to have
been Tilted by Prentiss Gray former
football hero of the University of Cali
fornia, has not gone into mourning by
any means.
She was married in this city yester-
day to Stuart Boyd Dunbar, who gave
his age as 20 and his residence as Bel
vedere. Miss Dowsett confessed to 20
years before the County Clerk when
asked her age, and also gave Belve-
dere as her residence.
Every effort had been made to keep
the wedding a secret The pair came
to Stockton Saturday, but carefully
avoided publicity. AS both appeared
to be DESTROYS of escaping any mention
in the papers, they avoided the hotels
or registered under assumed names, if
they went to one.
Dunbar is said to have been ac-
quainted with Miss Dowsett for some
time. She seems to have decided that
he is man." as she declared when
Prentiss begged to be excused from
marrying her that she would love "a
man and not a cad" hereafter.

The only way to save her in the
opinion Of many experts in such mat
ters, is to have 3 or heavy anchors
out to seward to hold her from go
ing inshore and then take out the
cargo. Then, on being lightened, she
might be towed out of her dangerous
position. The fact that she has less
than half a cargo is one of the disad-
vantages under which she labors as far
as this pla mis- concerned.
