Marshal and is plastered with sle,-
O00 libel. This libel was filed yester-
day morning by the 1nter-Isiand
! Steamship company, the amount
claimed being their bill for services
| rendered in hauling the Maru off the
reef
! The libel states that the rescue OF
| the Japanese vessel from a perlious
position was due to the timely assist
| ance of the two Inter-Island steamers,
assisted by the Manning, a heavy swell
| running at the time of the accident
which threatened to drive the Chiusa
! further on the reef and make her q
total loss The fact that the swelis
increased during the day and night
! following is cited to snow that there
would have been great damage result
ing any delay in getting the Chiusa
relocated.
The value of the Chiusa is given in
the libel at 100000 and her cargo az
sos 600 The Kinau and Re Au Hou are
put down as worth $500, 900 and s45,-
600 respectively. The Chiusa is a single
bottomed vessel and the libel asserts
that her bottom was punctured dur
ing her stranding and her cargo in
danger of being damaged.
On board the Chiusa is Deputy Mar
shall Calvert, who took possession of
the vessel at noon yesterday, while
guarding the discharged cargo on the
dock is Deputy Marshal ]. H. S. Ka-
leo. The work OF further diSchargin8
cargo was suspended yesterday after
noon, the crew turning their attention
to washing up and painting the ship
The task of filing a bond and secur-
ing a release of the Chiusa deVolves
itself upon T. H. Davies & Co, the
agents, and it was stated on board the
Maru yesterday that this bond will be
filed TINS morning and the work of dis
charging the cargo recommended. 1t
is expected that the vessel win sail for
Japan on Monday next. That the
pounding on the reef has punctured the
steamers bottom and that she is leak
ing as a result is vigorously denied
by the Japanese officers.
