LINER SIBERIA
NEARLY
HAS ACCIDENT

With bump that shook the whole
wharf, the big Pacific Mail liner ST.
IBERIA drew in ut the Hackfeld dock
u few minutes after IL o'clock this
morning. What came very near be-
ing serious accident and collision
was barely prevented when some
small local craft ran out into the
stream as the Siberia was nearing her
dock and got directly in the way. 1t
was only by the most skilful manage
ment of both boats that an accident
was averted.
However, II was on account of this
that the Siberia made such poor
landing.
There was an unusually large num-
her of passengers for Honolulu in the
Siberia--seventy-ou in all. There
were 1874 cabin passengers altogether
on the big steamship, and 37S steer
age. Most of these are Chinese
bound for home, For Honolulu there
are only thirty-two tons of freight
Purser Howard reports very quiet
voyage down from Frisco, the wealth
err being excellent all the way. The
Siberia will sail for the Orient at
1880 this afternoon.

1t was natural enough that the con

pretensions in Korea that brought
about the crisis in the affairs of the

Korea as a Japanese protectorate. The
dispatch of NiScount HayaSh to Seoul
quickly followed. and the crisis was
precipitated resulting in The abdicatien
