THE 7 K. K. AND THE 'P.M. S. CO.

CONNECTIONS TO DE SEVERED.

The Toyo Kisen Kaisha and the Pacific Mail Steamship Co, are to sever connection at the end of sext December, the former Company having served the latter with six months notice terminating the working agreement betwren them.

Mr. R. P. Schwerin, Ceneral Massger of the Pacific Mail Co., now in japan, in an interview recently with a representative of the "Japan Advertiser," said that he was not surprised: It was quite three years ago since the Tago Kisen Kaisha entered into an agreement with the Western Pacific Railroad and they had only been waiting for the complation of the railroad and terminal facilities and their third new beat. He knew the agreement the day it was sigued. Asked as to the facilities afforded by the Western Pacific Railroad, Mr. Schwerla sald: The Western Pacific ruot to Salt Lake City, makes connections with the Rio Grande, and Western Railroad and Denver and Rio Grande Railroad to Kansas Olly and the Missouri Pacific Railroad to Chicago" and St. Louis. It is a circuitous route and will prove a slow route, while the road-bed in part is such as to prevent it ever baing a popular passenger route.,

Passengers could book over alber routes from San Francisco overland, but it would entail's |slight additional expoise and be troublesome And annoying for baggags, etc. The rumour that the T.K.K. wore going to run an express service between Japan and Son Francisco at high speed and bo stop at Hovolaly would suit the P.M.. Co. first rate, besides, they knew that route and used to run if many years ago. It is the roughest on the Pacific and would be hard on the passenger and ruinous on those boats. The new boats for the P. M. Co's new boats would start very soon. Every detall will be perfectly plauzed before work is fully started. Three firms, one American, one German and one French, were now at work on the decora- tions. One did not spend, six million dollars without thorough investigation: The boats would be running in three years' time. They Would be of 40,000 to: displacement,

It was, however, 'fortunate for the Com- pany that place this spring those failures have gradually been · compensated under favourabla business condition. The Govern mint has granted subsidies to the Company for the South American lines.

They were looking to Chips and the Philippines. The development of China and the Philippines ia the next few years would be tremendous and they were not afraid of not getting their share.
