Arriving up Sunday, the American
steamship Zealandia remained an
chored in the stream until early yes
terday when orders were given to
berth the Zealandia on the east side
Of Muscogee wharf. This was done
and the steamer worked cargo all day.
There appears to be much dissatis-
faction among the crew at the pros
pect Of making the trip to Europe.
The report gained wide circulation on
the waterfront yesterday, but there
was no indication that there will be
a refusal of duty on the part of one
or more of the officers and several
members of the crew.

Because of her record in entering
six times from foreign ports within
the space of year, the tonnage tax
on the Spanish steamship Minnie de
LarTinaga was not collectable yester-
day when the vessel entered. 1t was
explained that after the fifth entry
at American ports in single year,
in any one customs district, no ton
mage charges are to be collectable,
the laws of the United States giving
this consideration to foreign vessels.
This means that the steamship named
has made half dozen round trips in
the space of a year TO Europe and
back and most, if not all, the en-
frances were made at the Pensacola
custom house. Capt. Thomson, in
the custom house yesterday, an
nounced that this was his sixth time
of entry, and therefore was not liable
for the tax. This meant that the
Pensacola custom house lost the coll
lection of nearly 5000, as the steamer
is alarge one, and had been in the
habit of paying that for the several
times she had entered here. This
was the only steamer which, in the
local custom house, carries this
record, and it means that the Minnie
de Larrinaga has been doing some
travelling during this year. She is
owned and operated by English peo-
pie, it was stated, but is under the
Spanish flag and plies regularly be-
tween Galveston, Pensacola and Bar
celona, calling here on the return trip
from Europe to invariably fill her coal
bunkers.
