MAVERICKSH OUT S. 0. S., IS
HONOLULU RUMOR
Naval Authorities Deny Knowledge
of Message; Trap is
Suspected
Did the temer Maverick, of ill
fame in the Hindu conspiracy cases,
and until recently supposed to have
gone to "Davy Jones' locker" in a n
in August off the coast of
Northern Luzon wireless an S.O.S. to
Honolulu Christmas Eve. either as a
lure to an unsuspecting vessel or be
cause she was in extreme distress?
An unofficial rumor states that such
a message was received by the naval
fciithorities. while official denial is
rr; e of the assertion by the silence
as to questions regarding
'i he report started shortly after the
pi''lK atlon of the statement that the
sit-nic- Paloona had steered clear of
a ship sending up flare signals of distress,
when it was discovered she answered
the description of the Maverick.
This encounter with the strange
ship was said to have occurred 1500
miles from Honolulu between here and
San Francisco.
Other navigators have reported both
here and on the mainland as having
6een a strange acting vessel which
they thought to be the Maverick. It
is also reported In shipping circles
that navigators have been warned to
be wary of approaching any ship answering
her description and not to be
led into a trap by going to the supposed
rescue of shipwrecked persous.
One of the methods which it is said
was used by German raiders to trap
unsuspecting navigators was to send
up signals from rafts cast adrift near,
but off the regular steamer course be
tween here and San Francisco.
If the Maverick is still afloat, as
some are inclined to believe, there is
little doubt that she has been used for
some illegal means since leaving Ba- -
tavia, Java, in August, or she would,
long before this, have been authentic
ally reported.
One theory is that either willfully
or accidentally she has fallen into the
bands of the 61 German raiders from
the Seeadler, who left Mopeha Island
in the French bark Lutece early in
September. Nothing has ever been
heard of these raiders since they were
seen to depart by Captain Halbor
8mlth of the R. C. Slade. As the bark
was old and far from weather proof, It
was believed they would have to secure
another vessel before they could
continue their operations or succeed
In getting to Java to intern.
Many shipping men, however, believe
that the Maverick was sunk In
the typhoon which nearly sent the
transport Thomas to the bottom. According
to the officers of a Dutch
steamer recently in port, the Maverick
left. Batavta with an American in command,
but had a number of Hollander!
as assistant officers and members of
her crew. The Maverick cleared; for
New Orleans when she left Java four
months ago.
The only recent reports of shipping
losses In the Pacific come from near
the Australian coast where two big
freighters are said to have been destroyed
by mines.

Maverick GIVEN UP AS LOST (Honolulu Stars Bulletin 20 okt 1917)
''Mystery" Ship of Hilo Thought
to Have Been Destroyed in
; r.';- -. Recent Typhoon
tNliwRD of i since she departed
I I from Manila on August 14 last
two and a half months ago for
Honolulu without cargo, the freighter
Maverick,' Hllo's famous "mystery
.fcblp of 115, is relieved to have been
lost in the typhoon that sorely bur
- feted ' the transport Thomas in the
same waters. ..f
This is the announcement made today
by naval authorities for no word has
come to tell the fate of the old eteam
; cr which left Manila Just' one day
ahead of the Thomas and which was
to have proceeded on to the Eastern
coast, by way of the Panama canal
after a brief stay In this port.
, Upon, her arrival la Batavia in 1915
' the Maverick was Interned or detained
by the Dutch government, but was
'later purchased. by the South Atlantic
Transport Company of Baltimore, She
left Batavia under the American flag
' and proceeded to Manila, arriving at
.. the Philippine port on-Augu- 7. She
spent just a week in Manila before
departing on what was probably the '
- last voyage of a rather romantic
career."
The name Maverick brings a thrill
yet in Hawaii, for the 10-da- y stay of
the vesseLin Hilo on an unexplained
voyage and without freight has never
been fully cleared up.
' Surmise was prevalent that the ves
sel - was to meet the Annie Larsea
' later and was then to be rigged up as
a' German raider, a- - surmise which
' may have. , been well founded, but
During her 6tay in Hilo the boat
was boarded by customs officials and
was finally allowed to clear upon
declaring that she was headed for 13a-tavla- ,-
It was said that after her ar
rival, there one of her officers made
