ENGLAND TO YOKOHAMA ZA < TWENTY-ONE DAYS via C.P.R.

A passenger who makes the Transcontinental journey by the Canadian Pacific Railway to day has to purchase a ticket a yard or two in length. It requires a considerable amount of practice to fold the lipso that it will fit into an' ordinary pocket book; the conductor tears Strips off it as irregular, intervals; the negro porte confiscates it at night and returns it to you, somewhat abbreviated in the morning; Just when it has been reduced to a convenient size and you have begun to get fond of it you.

part with it for ever.

One of these days it will be possible at one of the big London stations to buy an ordinary cardboard slip labelled Vancouver or Peko. kama, or Shanghai, or Sydnay. You will get into an express train that combines all the best features of English and American railway car riages, and run, by special arrangement with an English railway company, to Liverpool or some other seaport, and then embark on a Canadian Pacific steamship. The distance from Liverpool to New, York is 3,915 miles that from Liverpool to Halifax is 2,445 miles. Even if the new steamers only ran at the same pace as, the fast Cunarders to-day, a passenger by this route would reach Chicago or Minneapolis, and be half way across the American Continent in the time that it now takes him to reach the Atlantic seaboard. The distance from Liverpool to Hongkong, via Quebec and Vancouver, is 11,548 miles, as against 17,793 miles via New York and San Francisco-that is to say, a difference of 1,205 miles in favour of the all British route.

verandah of the Vancouver Hotel one sunny morning last September. Down at the wharf was a big steamship, one of the White Empress Line, with the black smoke pouring out of her yellow funnels against the darkground of pines on the Capilano Range. There are at present three Empresses plying between Vancouver, Yokohama, Kobe, Nagasaki, Shanghai, and Hongkong. Their dimensions are: Length 485 ft., breadth gift, depth 36.ft., tonnage 6,000. Their indicated horse power is 10,000, and on the trial trips a speed of over nineteen knots an hour was developed. The Royal Mail service between Canada, Hawail, and Australia, connecting with New Zealand and Tasmania, is performed by the Canadian- Australian Line steamships Aorangi, 4,750 tons and 4,500 i.b.p., Moana, 4,000 tons and and 4.505 i.h.p., and Mlowera, 3,000 tons and 4,000 i.h.p. These vessels are capable of maintaining a high rate of speed, their trial trips on the measured mile having been seven- teen knots per hour.

At eight o'clock alie made her last stop before reaching Brockville, having made the last seventy-four miles in ninety-three minutes, including twelve minutes for a stop; the last thirteen miles had been covered in cleven minutes. Every second of time was valuable, and she had sixty-one more miles to cover before her share in the journey was accom- plished; but at twenty minutes past nine she panted into Brockville Station, and had barely stopped when the mail-bags were hustled out, taken across the ferry, and put on the special Morristown, the whole operation taking just furnished by the New York Central people at

twenty-five minutes. A 9.45 the American train started; she rushed the 123 miles to Utica in 153 minutes, including eight minutes' stops; from Utica to Hoffman's Ferry, 68 miles, she sped, at more than a minute, in just one minute over the hour; in ninety minutes she had covered the ninety- five miles from Utica to Albany; from Poughkeepsie to Cold Springs, twenty-one miles, in twenty minutes: from Croton to Yonkera, nieteen miles, in sixteen minutes. At 4.43 am, she thundered into the Grand Central Depôt at New York.

Shortly after the Empress Line was fire established, the Canadian Pacific Railway Com- pany gave a practical demonstration to show what they could do, if necessary, to ensure a fast mail service to and from the Orient. The Empress of Japan lest Hongkong at noon on August 11, 1891, calling successively at Shang- hai, Nagasaki and Robe. On August 19 the White Empress left-Yokohama at 8.45 am, carrying, forty-six saloon, eighteen second class, and 240 Asiatic steerage passengers, | besides 3,000 tons of general cargo and thirty- three sacks of mail. She arrived at Royal Roads at 4.74 am, on the morning of the 29th, and at Vancouver at noon on the same day (Saturday) Just one hour and eight miantes later a special train, carrying the eighteen mail-bags (twelve for London and six for New York) and one solitary passenger, started out of the station, speeding past the blue inlets under the shadow of the snow-topped moun- tains, in order, if possible, to cross the continent in ninety hours. The City of New York was to sail at 5 am. on September 2; if they could catch her, the mail would be in London by the 9th, and the journey from Yokohama to Lon- don via the Canadian Pacific would have been performed in twenty-one days. If they missed the Inman boat they would have to content themselves with the Hamburg-American Columbia, sailing at 6 am. the following day.

It was barely six years since the Canadian Pacific Railway Company had completed the long line of steel between the Atlantic and the Pacific, piercing its way through a barrier of 500 miles of mountains. Everybody loves a race against time, and a race across a continent at breakneck speed is the kind of thing that appeals to the Westem imagination. At the boundary another special was in waiting to rush the mail across United States territory to the seaboard; and the American railwaymen were just as anxious to see the thing through as were their Canadian cousins,

From Swift Current, on the other side of the Rockies, there came a telegram on Mon day morning saying, "The special passed here at 1.30 am.." and we knew that she was safe across the mountains and nearly a thousand miles on her way from Vancouver; an hour later she was at Wolsey. at 5 a.m. abs was at Brandon; at daybreak she rushed into the depot at Winnipeg and out again at forty miles an hour. Af nine o'clock that night she was at Port Arthur, on the west side of Thunder Bay, an arm of Lake Superior.

Meanwhile Assistant-Superintendent Bradley, of the New York Central, had been despatched to Brockville, on the Canadian bank of the St. Lawrence, to await her arrival Superinten.. dent Voorhees had a special train, composed

The British postal authorities were less sympathetic, or less enterprising, and matters were somewhat bungled at the finish. Only

the mail matter for Ireland was landed at

Queenstown, the remainder being carried on to Liverpool. There the mail for the North was distributed, the remainder, consisting of 204 sacks, being forwarded to London by special train. The P. O. Department made no special effort to expedite the delivery of the bags in the transportation of which the Transatlantic authorities had made such extraordinary speed, and it was 11,8 a.m. on September 9 before the China mail was finally handed in at St. Martin's-le-Grand, in just 21 days I hours and 54 minutes-actual time after leaving Yokohama.

The Canadian Pacific had shown what their railways could do if the accessity should arke; six years Inter the Empress of Japan proved that their steamships could be depended on to correct an unavoidable delay on land. The usual time of the Empress steamers be- tween Yokohama and Vancouver is fourteen days. This particular ship was advertised to leave Vancouver on June 21, 1897, at 1.30 p.m., but, on account of a cloud-burst on the eastern slaps of the Rocky Mountains, which did considerable damage to the railway and caused serious interruption to traffic, she did not start. till June 26 at to o'clock. She arrived át Yokohama on July 7 at 1.35 p.m., and at Hong- kong five minutes after noon on July 14; that is to say, she left Vancouver 4 days 20 hours and 30 minutes late, and practically made up the last time before reaching her first stopping. place. With a fast Atlantic service mails could be delivered to Vancouver in ten days, to Yokohama in twenty-one, to Sydney in thirty-

one. With faster steamers on the Pacific this time could, of course, be shortened. From

okohama to Hongkong is 1,600 miles; from Hongkong to Singapore, 1,430 miles; from Singapore to Calcutta, 1,630 miles. It would be difficult to overrate the importance of this route for the transportation of men and munitions in case of war; and it is easy to see the advantage it would be to have twenty-four or twenty-five-knot boats running across the Atlantic from one British port to another. The Canadian Pacific Company have agents and correspondents in every country in the world; they have the wealth and the organisation necessary to make such a line a success.
