rectors of the Pacific Mail Steam
ship Company considered to-day
the question of California freights.

Union Pacific road has settled it's
accounts Of freight under the old
contract to July 1st, only a
small amount of money being
paid over, on account of steamships
having been filled with freight.
The Acapulco had o freight list of
$4S, CSC, and the Crescent City which
sailed to-day carried forty-five cab

but is being faithfully kept up. 1t

the contract Pacific Mail pas
