This greatest and latest project of the C.P.R. is the direct result of the placing in commis sion of the new Empresses, which have so cut down the time taken in crossing the Atlantic, The sailing schedule of the Pacific Empresses will be altered, so that travellers will be taken from the Atlantic-Emprenses, rushed across the continent in a special train, and at once trans- ferred to the waiting Pacific Empress for the journey across to Hongkong. And in the whole journey they will only go beyond British termory once, when the boats touch at Japan THE Steamship. ports and Shanghai. The same process will he repeated on the return trips.

One of the main reasons which have dictated this wonderful achievement in fast (ravellige in the desirability of proving that by the Canadian route muils and passengers can be transported to liangkang in much the same time as by what is known as the "Overland Route, "via Suez, although the distance is sume 3,000 miles greater. To Shanghai the period of transit is considerably lessened, in comparison, and by the Canadian route, Japan is brought wearer to the "Old Country by about 3 weeks than that by way of Suez, a most important feature, in flag time-saving age in which we live. This advantage is so apparent,, not to mention the additional comfort of the trip, only broken twice, together with the advantage of crossing Canada on the way, and always being under the British command of the ocean highways, that it must have a potent effect in swinging the pendulum of the world's travel via Canada.
