Honolulu? Her sails, it is said, would
not be sufficient to bring her in.
OF course, everyone is eagerly look
ing for news, but the information
cabled here has been SO meager that
nothing can be said beyond surmises.
Only deductions so far have been
made, and these at the best of times
are unsatisfactory. If her tail shaft
had gone, and it had been possible
to effect temporary repairs, then even
il this crippled state she should have
been here by this. No one seems in
clined to take. the matter seriously
now, and nearly all believe that the
message has been mutilated before
being sent here.
No Search to Be Made.
The first vessel to make the search
would in the ordinary course. be the
tug Intrepid But so far no request
has been made that she go and look
for the Titania. If the Intrepid could
not be spared, then in the natural
order of things the revenue service
would be asked to dispatch a boat
There is no boat from this service
on the station just now, so the Light
House Establishment would be appeal
ed to, and if this stage is reached,
then the Kukui will go out. Should
there by any chance be no possibility
of the Kukui going out within rea-
sonable time, then the Navajo would
be the last resort. She would be made

No News by HonoIuIan.
The Honolulan was 4O4 miles off
port at eight o'clock last night but
she made no mention of having seen
the Titania. The Manchuria, Wilhel-
nina and the Mexican are now on the
way from the coast and it is possible
that one of these boats will fall in
= with her. The Mexican should have
I the best chance of meeting her, as she
