The Oceanic steamship Sierra is
due to arrive at the port at an early
hour on Friday morning with one

gers the greater part Of whom may
| be safely placed in the tourist class.
The Pacific Mail liner Manchuria
is. expected to show up from San
Francisco early on next Monday
morning and this vessel can be
counted upon to bring at least one
hundred additional passengers.
Tis true that the Matson Naviga-
tion steamer Wilhelmina sailed for
San Francisco at ten O'Clock this
morning with nearly one hundred an
forty passengers, including the merry
bunch of Shriners. The delegation
now nearing these islands in the ST.
ezra will more than offset this .eX
