The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1912-03-11

| seems to be in the same position that
! she was in Saturday night, the result
| of the pumps has been so satisfactory
that the Inter-Island officials are now
confident that they will have her
ahoat within few days without
| further complications.
Yesterday they got a suction pump
! into the engine room and reduced the
water at a rate of four feet an hour
| in that compartment until thirteen
! feet of water had been pumped out.
| Captain Haglund, who was in charge
| of the work for thirty-siX hours and
was completely exhausted, was re-
| lieved by Captain Miller last night
! and the work was carried on all night.
This morning Captain Haglund was
back on the job. and the men will now
work in shifts until the Mauna Kea is
once more a1oat
An effort is being made today to get
a pump down the ventilator into the
alleyway aft OF the engine room bulk
| head, as this section contains the
most water and has not yet been
touched. This morning there is no
water in the forward compartment,
! only a few feet in the engine room,
! and the work of pumping out the
after compartment will be pushed for
ward today. The Inter-Island steam
ers grouped about the Mauna Kea are
laboring this morning to get her on an
even keel.
President Kennedy Of the Inter
/ Island company said this morning that
everything was working to the entire
satisfaction of the company and that
! he saw no reason for taking the mat
! ter too seriously. After the pumping
is finished the worst of the work will
| be over and the main task will be one
of renovation.
