Sierra and WiIheImina Race.
SAN FRANCISCO, September 90
When the race between the liner Will
helmina and the Oceanic liner Sierra.
Captain Houdlette, ended yesterday
morning, it was found that the affair
had been nip and tuck from the start,
for the ships steamed through the
Golden Gate in about the same rela.
tive positions in which they had lef,
the island port. Although the Sierra
arrived about two hours before the
Matson ship, she had not beaten her
rival, because she had sailed from Ho,
nolulu two hours earlier. This was
due to Chief Engineer Forbes of the
WiIhelmina, who had his engines
working so smoothly that the big
ship made about eight miles extra
each day over her average.
Both vessels met with head winds
and seas throughout the passage, but
with the exception of about thirty-six
hours few of the passengers were sea-
sick. The Sierra carried eighty cabin
and fifteen steerage passengers.
Among the prominent passengers
on the Sierra were T. A. Birmingham,
representing large American inter,
ests in Australia; F. Dohrman Jr.,
son of the well-known San Francisco
merchant; DR.. e. l.. Glaysler, a promi-
nent veterinarian of the islands, and
DR.. ]. A. Q. Henry, M. d., returning
from an evangelistic tour of Australia.
