Six Men.

New York, Jan. 12.-For the second time
on her voyage from Charleston, S. c.,
to this port, the lumber-carrying schoon-

with mishap today. A 60-mile gale from
the north-northwest and heavy seas drove
her ashore In the lower bay near Sandy
Hook. Darkness closed upon two tugs
standing by ready but unable to aid the
distressed vessel, which carried crew
of six men. The United States revenue
cutter Seminole about a week ago saved
the Winsmore from probable loss when
she was dragging toward the Lookout
Shoals, N. c., breakers. The Seneca, a
government derelict destroyer, could not
get in close enough this afternoon to
throw a line to the schooner. One of the
tugs succeeded in doing this. but the
schooner was too hard aground. to be re-
leased Messages from Sandy Hook said
that while there was some danger that
the stranded ship might be pounded to
pieces, it would be possible to rescue
those on board before this could happen

OFFICERS SURE
some BOAT Went
DOWN OFF POINT.
Sgt. Alexander Denies Stating
Maui Was Vessel He Saw /
Sink in Ocean

The wild rumor to the effect that
the InterIsland steamer Maui had
gone TO the bottom Off BARRIERS Point
is explained away. in large measure
by the following statement by r. NJ
Alexander, @. NJ. Sergt., 143d Co., G.
A. G. Officers stationed at Fort Ka-
mehameha still are positive that
something went down at the time
stated and at the place mentioned but
that they are inclined TO the belief
that II may have been a large sam
pan. However, SO far as can be learn
ed, there are no sampaas not account
ed for.
Sgt. Alexander's statement follows !:
sIn regards to the erroneous re-
port of the sinking of the Maui, ! beg
TO state the following:
AT 6 p. m. / was standing at the
TT Kamehameha pier, speaking to
Cook Folmer Of this organization, who
was little ways out in a sailboat,
when he called my attention to a boat
ON fire, about 1000 yards out.
The boat was enve:oped in black
smoke and was moving slowly. A
few seconds later an immense cloud
of black smoke shot up in the air,
reaching a height of approximately
800 feet and the boat went down and
out OF sight almost Immediately, the
smoke hung stationary for a minute
or two and thinned out
Il neither saw flames nor felt the
shock OF an explosion. The boat was
sea-going launch or gasoline tug.
reported the matter to 1t. Jenkins,
the post adjutant, who asked me If !
was certain that 1t was not one of
the Inter-Island steamers. / replied
that it was not, and furthermore, that
the Maui was making for BARRIERS
Point at about the same time the ex.
plosion took place aboard the other
boat, which was about three miles off
the port stern and to the rear Of the
Maui, just before she made the turn
for BARRIERS Point The explosion
should have been noticed aboard the
Maui. / cannot understand how the
report OF the Maui golag down could
have gotten about, as l distinctly stat.
ed that the Maui was N sight after
the explosion on the other boat /,
nor Cook Folmer, are responsible for
the report that the Maui had blown
up.
81 am absolutely positive that the
explosion took place aboard gaso-
line tug or sea-going launch and that
the boat went down.

PROMOTION COMMITTEE IS
BADLY m NEED OF FUNDS
DECLARES ITS SECRETARY

That the Promotion Committee Is
sadly in need Of funds with which 10
carry on its advertising campaign
scheduled for the next seyeral
months. and that the members OF the
committee at their meeting at $40
o'clock this afternoon probably will
draw up plans TO remedy this de-
preston. was the statement made this
morning by II. p Woe, secretary OF
the committee.
q understand that a discussion of
/ finances Is 10 core up said Mr..
Wood. The present outlook certain
| " is not pleasing. and ! believe that
now. IL ever, with the exposition
but a few months away. the commits
tee should have sufficient funds In
its possession TO carry on its pro-
posed advertising scheme. The value
| OF the work of the Promotion Com
tmittee is shown by the increasing
number OF visitors TO Hawaii. The
/ tourists are proving q new money
source. one which Is outside OF the
industrial and agricultural resources,
and this revenue from the tourists
can be made to become q great asset
i during the next three or i've years.
! Mr.. Wood concluded by saying that
he has no idea Of what plan the pro-
J motionists will adopt toward main
tanning their present source of funds.
