HoNGKoNG MARU ARRIVES.
At SIS o'clock last night the Togo
Kisen Kaisha Hongkong Maru, Cap
tain w. c. T. S. Filmer, was sighted
off BARRIERS Point, coming from the
Orient. At first it was expected that
she would not enter the harbor until
this morning, but the U. S. Marine
Hospital Service doctor went out in his
launch and the usual ceremonies of
entering the ship were observed and
those who were worrying in regard to
what time the vessel would leave with
mail for the Coast We're treasured. She
locked at the channel wharf shortly
before IL o'clock and there were the
several of the first cabin passengers
chartering hacks to take them to the
Moana, the Young and the Hawaiian
hotels, after it was learned from the
always genial and obliging purser, w.
A. Chapman, that she would not leave
for San Francisco until 2 o'clock this.
afternoon.
The Hongkong Maru brought nine
cabin, three European steerage and 235
Asiatic steerage passengers from the
Orient. The Asiatic steerage passen-
gers are Japanese immigrants, and
they will be landed on Quarantine Is
land the first thing this morning
There are 300 tons of miscellaneous
Oriental freight for Honolulu. The
day before yesterday the Togo Kisen
Kasha boat overhauled the United
States protected cruiser Cincinnati, not
knowing at the time that the cruiser
Raleigh was already in this port.
The Hongkong Maru will take but
one passenger from this port, Miss
Barnes, a lay-over. There are none
this trip whose business is SO urgent
as to persuade them to pay the 5000
fine which is invariably exacted of
persons who take passage from this
port to another, American port on the
mainland in a foreign bottom.
Commander Fsilmer is now the Hong
kong Maru's permanent captain. he
took charge of her on the outward trip
from Yokohama to Hongkong and has
since been appointed permanent master
of the beautiful yacht-like vessel.
Most prominent among the passen-
gers, perhaps, is Senator William J.
Stone of Missouri, formerly Governor
of that State, who is accompanied by
his charming wife and beautiful
daughter. Mrs. Charles A. Stephens
is round-tripper with the Hongkong
Maru and is the wife of a prominent
customs man of San Francisco. Mr.
and Mrs. S. Dolliver are wealthy tour
lists, the gentleman being well"
known wholesale merchant. Captain
j. NJ Helms, L. S. N, is going home
under orders.
The Iongkong Maru encountered
heavy northeast winds; otherwise she
would have arrived yesterday morning /
early.
VANCOUVER NOT TO RETURN.
The British S. S. Vancouver, which |
brought coal here from Australia not
long ago and was chartered for two
more loads of Newcastle coal for Ho-
nolulu, will not return to this port,
these charters having been cancelled
She viii go from Australian ports to
probably taking coolies
home. Captain McDougall and his wife
