Skipper Tells of Voyage and
Trials Since Leaving New
York Last AUGUST

Completing his fifty-eighth voyage
around Cape Horn, under conditions
that would have tried many stouter
heart within a more seasoned navi-
gator, Captain Walter Lyman Joss
eiyI, master OF the American bark
Nuuanu, 34S days from New York,
stepped ashore at the new Richards
street wharf, at ten O'Clock this morn
ing, and then and there was privi-
legged to greet circle of relatives
and friends, after nearly eighteen
months absence.
Il am certainly glad to get back. :"
was the succinct comment made by
the well-liked skipper who now holds
the record for the longest passage be-
tween the east coast of the United
States and the Hawaiian Islands.
Il sailed with large general cargo
from New York on August 9Th, stated
Captain Josselyn this morning to a
Star Bulletin representative.
Briefly stated, the past year has
been one of mingled adventure with
plenty of misfortune and bad weather
thrown in as "a bargain. The Nuuanu
skinned along after leaving New
York until within. forty miles of Cape
Horn. when i ran. into one Of the
worst hurricanes sthat has ever been
my misfortune to meet in all the fifty
eight passages around that famous
promontory.
Ship Rides Gales.
.Gales and tempestuous seas con-
tinued for some days with the result
that the bark Nuuanu lost a large
section of her port bulwarks, the fore
castle was battered and portion
washed away. My sailors lost all their
personal effects and belongings by the
deluge of angry waters that continu-
ally swept over the ship.
The forward house was destroyed
and much of it went over the side.
Then we discovered that the ship was
making water at rapid rate and with
q number of sails gone, our plight was
anything but a pleasing one.
Under but two sails, the Nuuanu
proceeded on her way to Port Stan
ley, Falkland Islands.
Captain Josselyn has an interesting
story concerning his long five and one
half months stay at the most south
erly city in the world. The vessel
went under repairs, and during the
long period of detention, the Nuuanu
was given a general overhauling.

"Homeseekers and tourists will be
as big an asset to the islands as is SUI
gar now" was the emphatic conclu-
sion of an address delivered before the
Honolulu Ad Club today at noon in
the Young Cafe Rathskeller, by Fl. p.
Wood of the Hawaii Promotion Com
mittee.
After telling in brief detail of the
work and accomplishments of the Pro-
motion Committee for the last seven
years, he told the Admen of the differ
ent ways in which publicity was being
secured for the islands.
Requests from publishers who wish
to print articles about the islands was
one of the sources which gave much
results at little cost. Only by the last
mail he had received copies Of pub
locations from Germany, France and
England in which local scenes were
reproduced. Much information is be-
ing given out regarding the Islands

That the board of harbor commits
sioners acted hastily and ill-advisedly
In making an outlay of $4,000 for b
fuel oil pipe line along the Honolulu
waterfront without first comforting
with the representatives of the var
ious oil companies is the opinion of
Arthur Davidson, manager for the As
sociated Oil Company, and he frankly
told the members so at their meeting
yesterday afternoon.
The commissions predicament ap-
parently is serious one, despite the
fact that Chairman Marston Campbell
declared this morning they expected
TO reach satisfactory agreement
with the oil companies.
'sUnofficially, / would say that you
have acted hastily and gone to un-
necessary expense. Had you confer
red with the representatives of the
Gil companies you might have saved
the money by giving the companies
permission to install their own lines,
and perhaps obtained a certain fee
from them for granting the privilege.
This, in substance, was Manager
Davidsons statement to the commits
sioners. -

the companies would not use the line
