The introduction of these 39,000-too ships into the Pacific Mail service will impose upon the company the obligation of providing then with full cargoes of freight. It has suffered before, because it had big ships and shortage of freight, and lacked the right kind of energy to rouch out for it. Hill solved the problem of obtaining business for his milroad and transpacific fleet hy carrying cotton from the felds of the South to Japan. With the proper kind of an inducement hold out, that traffic can, doubtless, be diverted this way, as the haloge by rail is aborter than that on the roundabont route from the South to Puget Boudil, and loss costly, owing to the chemper fuel asist in rail- road operation and supplied by the oil of Teras and California. Something of the sort, wil have to be done to give profitablo etaployment to these big ships.
