GN.SO SO.-Suffering the same fate
as her predecessor-destruction
by fire-the passenger liner City
of Honolulu lay today, a black
ened hulk, alongside Pier 8 where
she was scuttled last night to
avoid danger of an explosion.
The original City of Honolulu
burned in mid-Pacific in 1922

the Los Angeles Honolulu run.
The newer City of Honolulu,
placed on the same run in 1927
after 100000 had been ex-
pended in remodeling. was dis
covered on fire as she lay at
her dock late yesterday.
The fire apparently had been
raging in her cargo OF nitrates
for an hour. The entire Honolulu
fire fighting force was called, but
the flames steadily gained.
The vessel carried $4,000 bar
relS Of oil.
Orders finally were given to
scuttle the vessel. The stern set
tied first and finally the vessel
sank in 35 feet of water.
The only casualty was Ray

injured in an auto crash speeding
to the scene.
