MARINE:


With a thousand tons of freight and
q fair number of passengers for this
port, the Pacific Mail steamship Korea
arrived yesterday morning from the
Orient, after a pleasant run of nine
days from Yokohama. She carries a
good list of through passengers and was
boarded here by enough of all classes
to send her away a full ship.
Among those who arrived for Homo
lulu were Mrs. H. A. Isenberg and two
sons and Miss A. w. Duisenberg, who
have been visiting in the Orient.
Several distinguished persons are in
Guided among the through passengers,
among these being H. L. Paddock, the
American Consul at Annoy, who is re-
turning to Washington on an official
mission, and William Haywood, the
American Consul General in Korea, who
is well known locally.
Major General Zakharoff, of the Rus
sian army, who is accompanied by his
wife; General Kendratovitch and Lieu
tenant Colonel B. Glouchanovsky are
returning to st. Petersburg from China.
Each of the officers saw service in the
recent war.
A large number of cabin passengers
and so Japanese from here We're on the
Korea when she sailed yesterday after
noon. Among those departing were:
j. D. Dole, of the Dole cannery at
WahiaWa, who goes to look after the
mainland end of his growing business.

who went aboard here, there being 11S
Chinese and 80 Hindus.
The Korea sailed at 5 .. M, there
being a large crowd at che Hackfeld
wharf when she pulled out.
LEAVES NEXT WEEK.
The tug Fearless returned from Hilo
yesterday afternoon, bringing in tow
the tug Intrepid, which is to replace
full crew aboard, the breaking of a
piston rod in her engine making it
necessary for her to be lowed here, al
though she entered the narbor under
her own power.
The Intrepid is about one-half the
size of the Fearless and has a claimed
power of 400 horse power, compared
with the 700 of the larger boat. She
is by no means as attractive a boat as
the Fearless and in the exchange the
shipping interests of Hawaii are getting
decidedly the worst of it. The exchange
of crews will be made at once, and the
Dick Seike, will depart for the Coast
within the next few days. q
On the trip to IIilo the Fearless en-
countered strong head winds and heavy
seas, against which she had to buck
for twenty-three hours. Returning with
her tow, she came down in twenty
one hours, showing the delay of the
weather. Her funnel is coated with the
brine nearly to the top.
LEHUA'S LOG BOOK FOUND.
While dismasting an old trunk the
other day G. P Wilder came across
the log of the old S. S. Lehua on her
voyage from San Francisco to Homo
lulu in 1879. George G. Beckley was
the master of the steamer and made
the entries in the log. The voyage re-
quired eleven days. The Lehua was
afterward sold to parties in San Fran
cisco and taken to the Coast. Mr.. |
Wilder will present the book to Mr.. |
Beckley on his arrival from Hilo.
