| ashore and in Honolulu He was seen
| on the downtown streets during the
| earlier evening hours. At one of the
| local places OF amusement, Craig was
| for time an Interested spectator.
| The pursCr OF the Pacific Coast
Steamship Senator was also visitor
according to those who know that in
dividual
Craig however returned to the
| steamer at an hour carly as he was
seen by parties who were on board u
| launch which steamed around the
| Senator this morning.
The rather lively movements of
! Craig and his successful evasion of u
| ghCaI ul warrants and subpuCnas ap-
pears to partially explain the mystic
riOus actions of small boat which
| was seen by several Honolulu ship
| ping people on or about seven o'clock
TO leave the Union oil Tanker Santa
Rita. for the Senator.
J Did Santa Rita Carry Craig to Sea.
| The Santa Rita sailed from the
| railway wharf shortly after EiX O'Clock
! this morning. Captain Boyd did not
take pilot. when The oil tanker had
steamed within but a short distance
of the Pacific Coast vessel she was
seen to halt a boat was lowered and
in 1t were several persons besides two
| sailors who manned the oars. The
two vessels were at that time lit
tic over. u mile from the harbOr
though the persons who occupied the
small boat could not be distinguish
cd through the glass.
The Senator was riding at anchor
as the Santa Rita boat with her pas
scngcrs came along side. The Santa
Rita remained in the locality from
twenty minutes to a half an hour be-
fore the boat was noted as making its
, way back to the oil steamer. The
small craft was then hoistCd Up in
her dayits and the Santa Rita pro-
ccedcd on her voyage TO san Fran
cisco.
1t is thought probable that the
Santa Rita was the medium that serN-
ed to carry Craig, and perhaps the
puTser from their noctural visit At
Honolulu back to the Senator. Craig
was apparently a very much coment-
ed individual when seen suollng
about the main deck of the Senator
arrayed in gaily cOlOred ~pajamas.

ship this morning by means other
