(From Mondays Advertiser)
The good ship Manchuria is anchor
ed OFF port and will sail the seas again.
Captain Metcalf has added another
name to his long list of vessels saved
from the peril of rock and reef.
After nearly month of pounding on
the bricks off Waimanalo during which
time hopes of saving the liner al.
ternately rose and fell, the Manchuria
slipped into deep water and safety
shortly after noon yesterday.
The report that the vessel had been
floated reached town by phone from
Waimanalo about i p. IN. and spread
like wildfre. Two hours later three
long whistles heralded her presence off
Koko. Head.
People flocked to the, wharves and
when, at ) p. m, the great ship was off
the bell buoy, the erstwhile deserted
landing plsces were crowded with
curious humanity. 80 i.
Everyone expected that the Manchu-
ria would come right in and tie up at
the Hackfeld wharf, The Restorer,
which had brought her along, turned
her round off the channel, however, and
left her Anchored there till the morn
ing, her coal CRIME and general dirti.
ness bathed and glorifed in the rays

p Shortly before high tide yesterday
morning the Restorer, Manning and
Iroquois frightened up bit on the

Since daylight the vessel had bc.G
righted up and placed on nm even keel
by pumping operations. Overnight she
had had a big list to port.
SHE LEAVES THE REEF.
AT 11:30 a. m. she commenced to
slide. AS soon as her lines became
slack whistles were blown for full
speed from the tow-boats and at 1895
p. IN. the Manchuria slid off into deep
water.
The Manning let go her hawser and
that of the Iroquois parted. Tho an
Choir lines on the Manchuria were
hastily cut, the Restorer hove right on
her big drum and with the liner in
tow put to sea.
EN- ROUTE TO HONOLULU.
SO quickly and Unexpectedly did the
Manchuria jump off the reef that the
tug Eleu which was alongside started
to go with her and had to be cleared
by Young Bros. launch Brothers. The
launch then took the Manchuria 3 boats
over to the dredger Pacific which re-
manned on the spot to pick up seven
ton anchor this morning. She will
come in with the Manchuria 3 boats
and scow today.
