SIERRA THIS TRIP HAS THE
RECORD LIST OF PASSENGERS

ny III a N, SlnClalr, VINO was q re-
turning passenger. She was locked
at the Oceanic wharf by half-past six.
This it would seem is a record hour
of docking. The number of passen-
gers brought here, 19), is a record
, number for the Sierra, and is said to
be the largest number brought here
at any time by any steamer. There
were thirty in the steerage. Fully
fifty-fve of the cabin passengers
were school teachers, many we're
kamaainas, and there was a fairly
large number of tourists.
The trip down was an ideal one,
and Dr. Clark said that the stewards
were busy feeding the passengers; MOI
one had to be administered to for seal
sickness. The conditions increased,
the pleasure of the voyage and all
lowed the officers the usual scope to
assist in Willing away the hours. On
Wednesday night a highly successful
masquerade ball was given and lastI
night there was an excellent concert. /
This too, was a huge success in every
way.
The cargo totaied 1926 tons and
there were eight automobiles. Four
of these were for the Won Hamm-
Young, one for the Schuman Carriage
Company, and three were owned byl
the passengers. The principal lines
in the cargo were 1000 sacks of
cement and $4,000 red bricks for H.
Hackfeld G Co.
