Was It A CRUISER
THAT SIBERIA
SIGHTED?

A large vessel apparently standing
by or riding at anchor was sighted
shortly after midnight from the bridge
of the Pacific Mail liner Siberia as
that vessel approached the windward
coast of the island of Maui, which has
led to much speculation upon the part
of local shipping men who profess to
believe that the visitor may have been
"a war vessel belonging to one of the
hostile powers.
A green light at the bow and sig
nal at the foremost were seen for
about 20 minutes and then the craft
was shrouded in darkness. From what
the officers could gain through brief
inspection through the glass. the yes

that they failed to note the appear.

its departure for the Orient has not

The japanese liner Chiyo Maru has
been booked to capacity with passen,

that this vessel has been announced
to sail on time leads shipping men on
the coast to believe that several jap.
