of the seas, the 201 persons who were
the nessenzers nnd erew of the liner

them into the ship's beats V1 miles
southwest of San Francisce Thursday
morning, were approaching the. main
land tednv aboard the transnert
Themas.
The Themas is expected te make pert
some time tomorrow. The City of
Honolulu was burned te the water's
level. Her charred and twisted hulk
will be towed In luter.
Te one man belongs the credit of sav

Honolulu many hours In open beats, nnd
possibly the lives of some. His name
is II. E. Cey Ic, and he is the wireless
operator In chnrgc of the Federal Tele
graph Company's beach station in San
Francisce.
The women passengers accepted their
fate as Ijravely as the men.
Upen being transferred te the
Themas, the pnssengers were given
warm clothing, although most of it was,
of the misfit variety. Seme of the men
nre new dressed as colonels of cavalry,
ether as dashing lleutennnts of infantry.
Frem the beginning te the end of the
thrilling drnmn Captain I.ester, of the
City of Honolulu, never raided his
voice above his ordinary conversational
tone. The rnltn attitude of the captain

"We received n message from the

either the Oreeks or the Turks invaded
the neutral zone they would have te be
resisted by force by the Allies. We ac
cepted that. We thought they meant

"I hae many friends among the

The hcuslng shertnae en the Island,
nnd recognition by Investors that there
Is n great future for the resort, has
contributed te the boom. In addition
the water line en the ocean front bus

has been moved out twice, and the own

a harvest.
Anether grent factor In the develop
ment of the resort was the freeing from
tells of the automobile bridge en August
in last. The entire island Is eight
miles long and one nnd a half miles
wide. The winter population Is only
4000, while the summer tigures reach
"5,000 at the peak of the season. Ordi
narily summer Is the building season
but this winter the contractors have
been hard at work, and the sound of the
hammer and the saw is heard every day
except Sunday up and down the island.
