CAPTAIN CARRIERS ORDERS.

SlD1e.
CAPTAIN CARTER S ORDERS.
Probably the only really unpleasant
features of the reception of the fleet
came through orders issued by Captain
Carter of the tug Iroquois, the Homo,
lulu Naval Station tender, to exclude
| everybody from the Oceanic wharf dur,
ling and after the docking of the flag
ship Connecticut. This not only caused
pilikia for persons who had business
aboard, but was particularly offensive
to others whose business compelled
| them TO get aboard as early as prac-
ticable. Captain Carter first of ali ex-
Guided members of the press, and at
| forwards sent Lieut.. Fay of the Marine
! Corps to carry out his order explicitly
Lieut.. Fay told the people crowding
about the entrances to the dock to move
back and when representatives of the
Advertiser and Star asked whether that
order included them, Lieut.. Fay re-
Piled:
..Captain Carter ordered everybody
! out, and particularly members of the
press.
When asked again who gave such an
order the officer stated it was Captain
Carter, and repeated the order The
press members left the dock. But the
pilikia was not over. The entertain
ment committee endeavored to pass
through the gates, but owing to the
fact that Captain Carter had failed
to remove the restriction, although the
Connecticut had been locked some time
and Captain Rees, comnandant of the
Naval Station had paid his respects and
departed, they were detained. Finally
an automobile was pressed into service
and delegation waited on Captain
Rees at the Naval Station. That officer
courteously sent an orderly with the
committee to pass them through the
gates and to the gangway of the ves-
sci. The members of the committee,
including Messrs. Waldron, harrington,
A. Lewis Jr., Fl. D. Bowen, L. s. Con.
ness, Mamie Phillips and W. III. Hoogs
expressed their indignation in no uncer,
tain manner. The press got in with
the rest.
