ARRIVED LAST NIGHT.
With a fewer number of passengers
than usual the Oceanic S. S. Alameda
arrived from the Coast at 7:3o last
night. She had had a rather rough
trip during the first three days out
but otherwise the run was a good one.
A large crowd was present on the
Oceanic wharf to meet the vessel, the
fact that she was arriving some twelve
hours late allowing many to be at the
dock who are otherwise unable to
watch the popular liner come in.
The delay in the departure of the
Alameda from san Francisco was due
to the necessity of shipping new
foremost, the work not being comp.et-
ed as expeditiously as usual on account
of the general hurly- burly of things
still existing along the San Francisco
waterfront. The old yards are still in
use on the new mast, the foretopgal-
liant being the one exception, this trip
being made with that stick missing.
Among the arriving passengers are
many Honolulans returning from
abroad and from mainland visits. A.
de S. Canavarro, the Portuguese con-
sui, returns from st. Paul, where he
was called through the serious illness
of his son. w. G. Ashley Jr., is the
son of w. G. Ashley, of the Honolulu
plantation. A. NJ. Culver, is the travel
ing passenger agent of the Oceanic
Steamship Company, well known 10
cally.
Mrs. B. Klein and Miss F.. Klein are
former Horolulans, returning ON
visit.
Eva Plantation, and J. f. Morgan,
who has been representing the Hawaii
Relief Committee ON the Coast and who
has also been taking a trip for his
health. are among those returned.
Mrs. J. c. Cohen and Miss Lei Lehua
were among the returning passengers
Two interesting persons aboard were
Father II. Stark and Father H. Wy
man, two Paulist Fathers. who viii
lecture here on behalf of the Paulist
mission.
The Alameda brought In 213 sacks of
mail and a fair freight cargo, which
includes the usual consignrnents of
refrigerator goods.
On the last trip up to the Coast 1t
wa discovered that there were five
stowaways aboard the vessel, two Por-
to Rican women each with a small
babe and one with ten year old son.
The Alameda made the run down in
good time, five days and nineteen
hours out. On Tuesday she sighted a
steamship bound northeast and at four
o'clock yesterday afternoon overlook a
barkentine off Makapuu Point bound
in for Honolulu.
The liner will depart on her return
to the Coast on Wednesday next.
