Yeddo May Gene Back.

About three o'clock yesterday after
noon the British steamship Yeddo
hauled down the Blue Peter from her
foremost head, backed out into the
harbor, and started the return voyage
for Newcastle. One of her officers
stated Just before she sailed that the
Yeddo would go Immediately TO the
Australian coal port and take on an
other cargo for Honolulu. The Yeddo
came here this trip in place of the
Elvaston, which made her last trip
here several months ago.
With the discharge of the cargo of
coal of the Yeddo was finished the
first real test of the coal-handling ap-
paratus recently Installed opposite the
Bishop slip by the Inter-Island Steam
Navigation Company The work was
carried on with all success with the
new apparatus. and the Inter-Island
people feel somewhat eIated. While
the big steamer was not unloaded
with any unusual speed, this is ex-
planned by the fact that the men We're
not accustomed 10 manipulating the
intricate machinery. With the arrival
of the next boat, however, it is prom
ised that record discharge of cargo

The Hilonian sailed away yesterday
morning under the command of Captain

on her since she was secured by the
Matson company. The Hilonian had,
besides a fairly good shipment of
freight, every bit of her passenger ac-
eommodations occupied.

Kukui for Kalaupapa.

This morning at six o'clock the
United States lighthouse tender Kukui
is scheduled 10 sail for Molokai, car
rying a large amount OF supplies for
the new lighthouse at Kaulapapa.
She will also have several of the local
Z. s. Engineers staff on board. The
Kukui will probably return from Mol
okai tomorrow evening.
There are mighty few anchorages,
lights, or haroors on these islands
with which the Kukui is not familiar,
for. in the short time she has been
here. she has been kept on the steady
move on inspection tours and short
cruises. One part of the work which
she has done and. by the way. is still
doing, is the surveying of all suitable
anchorages and sheltered harbors
which are out of the usual track OF
Inter-Islana boats and other craft
which run around the islands. This
work is exceedingly important, in
view of the fact that surveys of the
coast lines of the VARIOUS islands have
not been had for a number Of years
and these We're not over correct.
Whether or not the Kukui really is
to be sent to Samoa, Laysan and 9TH
er islands, is a question that has re
Gently been raised and over which the
officers are wondering. When tht
boat first came down here from tbs
Pacific Coast, it was announced tina
she might be utilized in making al
annual cruise TO the islands outside
of the strictly Hawaiian group. It il
now said. however, that the United
States station tug Iroquois, which
was formerly the Spreckels tug Fear
less, will be used for this work. Tn
Iroquois has bunkers that permit o
her carrying enough coal for a 5000
mile voyage and she is a very stauncl
little craft.
