In the famous cruise of the Confed-
crate cruiser Alabama in our Civil war,
Captain Semmes sank SO vessels,
boarded 1856 and took 1000 men off
them--and didn't kill a single nom
combatant or neutral. His record
should be of interest in the present
war especially since the Confederacy
going blockade similar to the one
Germany is experiencing.

BARGAIN

Reports published in Honolulu to
the effect that E. H. Hartman, late
railroad king, paid $685. 900 while
still on the stocks for the Mongolia
aud the Manchuria. sister steamers OF
the Pacific Mail Steamship Company.
and that because Of that reported fact
the sum Of 81, $50 900 is q ridiculous
price, for the sale OF the Manchuria.
Mongolia, Siberia, Korea and the Chi
ma to the Atlantic Transport Company
are shown up in official records as
untrue.
The United States district court OF
Hawaii has records to show that the
Mongolia and Manchuria were con-
tracted for at st,S50. 900 each, or q
total Of So, 700 900 for the two. Unit,
ed States Judge G. f. Clemens open
ed his records to the Starr Bulletin to-
day and showed that IN deposition
filed In this court, r. p. Schwerin,
vice-president Of the Pacific Mail, tes-
titled that such was the purchase price
for the steamers. Schwerin also stat
ed that steamers Of the Manchuria
and the Siberia class depreciate at an
average of 5 per cent a year.
The contract for the two steamers
was signed on December Is, 1900. Ex-
tras tctaIed about $4,000 for each
steamer. Figures show the total cost
Of both ships when accepted on April
Is. 1903, $4254,675. The total cost OF
the Manchufia was 5000, 349.4z, In
Guiding all fittings, and the Mongolia
5000, 382. 40.
The case wherein this testimony
was given was that of the Commercial
Pacific Cable Company against the
Pacific Mail Steamship Company, the
result of the Manchuria going on the
Waimanalo reef in a fog on August
20, 1906, nine years ago today.
Cable Steamer Gave Aid.
A cable steamer assisted the Man
churia and for this service the cable
company instituted suit against the
Pacific Mail. It was tried in the local
United States court.
Il consider, in ship of the Man
churia type, q per cent basis is a
fair depreciation, Vice President
SchWerin testified. As the Manchuria
and the Mongolia are now II years
old, on Schwerin's basis of figuring
depreciation, a basis which is quite
generally accepted as fair, their value
would be less than $1,000, 900 each to-
day.
The other three vessels are much
older than the Manchuria. and the
Mongolia. but according to the Schwe-
rim basis of depreciation estimates,
the Pacific Mail got very good price
from the Atlantic Transport Company
when it sold the five steamers for an
average price Of $1,000 each or
$5,250,00 for all The Siberia and
Korea are sister steamers and are
considerably smaller than the Man
churia and Mongolia as well as being
much older. The China is both small

four steamers.
