to Japan via Siberia (ie., by the round- about route to Vladivostock) was re- sumed after the sending vis Atlantic on July 26, but, in view of the fact that the service via Vladivostock is available only on one day each week and because the route ia now longer, the Post Office intimates that con- siderable, delay may be expected.
