PROTEST Was
REBUKED

Now that Lorrin A. Thurston has
fired the opening gun OF campaign
against quarantine inspection here Of
liners plying between San Francisco
and Honolulu, and Dr. F. E. Trotter,
chief quarantine officer and his assist
ants, are firm in saying that such in
spection is necessity, the following
account by Capt. ]. R. Macaulay, ter
ritoriai pilot, of Admiral Bob" Evans
experiences with the public health
service, is timely:
Shortly after the Spanish-American
war, Admiral Bob Evans and staff ar
rived off port as passengers in the
White Star liner Gaelic, Capt. Finch,
commander, their destination being
Manila. was plotting the liner in.
The admiral, being just a little I'M
patient to get ashore early in the
morning, stepped up to the bridge and
the following is about what he said:
"'Capt. Finch, will you give me a
note of the time the pilot came on
board, the number of passengers and
amount of mail and the time the doc
tor will come on board? / will give
this matter my special attention at
Washington.
NEEDLESS to say, the admiraPs or
ders were. promptly obeyed.
"A short time afterward ! happened
to be on board the same ship when
Capt. Finch asked me if I remembered
the above incident. assured him that
/ certainly did. a.
/" Would it interest you to know the
reply he received FROM Washington
he asked with smiling counternance.
q. assured him it would, my face
assuming similar smile.
Well, this is the reply Admiral
Evans received said Capt. Finch.

will not tolerate any interference with
its public health service

sci in, is being prepared today by
Capt. A. H. Peterson, master of the
steamer, at the request of Capt. Will
liam r. Foster, harbormaster.
This statement, which II Is under
stood differs considerably from the
account of the pilot, will be presented
to the board of harbor commissioners
at its meeting Wednesday. II is said
to be in the nature of protest as well
as formal statement from the steam
er's master.
While Capt. Peterson. master of the
Manila, would not make a statement
for publication today, he indicated
that he intends to ask the harbor
board to make a thorough investiga-
tion of the grounding.
Capt. Peterson denied emphaticaIiy
this morning that there was anything
the matter with the Manila's steering
gear, or that there had been any
breakdown OF the machinery at the
time the Manila went on the reef.
Capt. .Lcselzen's report says the ship

Capt. Macauiay was appointed by
the local representative of the board
of marine underwriters to make a.
survey Of the ship and report as to her
condition. A diver from the Inter-
Island is examining the vessels hull
to see if any plates are bent or any
other damage done. The steamer is
at Pier Z.
Arthur Berg. president and mana
ger of the Bishop Insurance Agency,
said this morning that the owners
have requested Capt. Peterson to have
the survey made by the local repre-
sentative of the board. the Bishop In
surance Agency. He thinks the steam
er is insured In San Francisco.
The Manila was hauled from the
reef at 2:55 Saturday afternoon by
