SPEED ON THE OCEAN.
The Steamship Alaska Makes the
Quickest Western Trip ON Record.
Ne,v York Times. ED.

The steamship Alaska, of the GuIon line,
which reached her dock early Yesterday
afternoon, made the quickest western pas
sage on record. she passed Roche's Point,
near Queenstown, on Sunday, the 14th, at
1852 a. M, and reached Sandy Hook Yester-
day morning at 11:40. The actual time was
seven days four hours and ten minutes.
This is two hours and eight minutes faster
than her last westward passage, which,
until this one, was the quickest on record.
During her recent trip the Alaska was
obliged to pursue the extreme southerly
course in order to avoid the ice near
the banks OF Newfoundland. This
made her journey longer one
than it would otherwise have been. The
total distance travelled since Roche's Point
of miles made eacH day were as follows:
On the 18th. 428 miles; on the 16lh, 4OS: on
the 18th, 4l9; on the 18th, 403; on the 19 b,
423; on the Goth, 410, and up TO 11:40 a, m.
on the 21st, 318. The weather during the
voyage was tOlerablv good, although there
was considerable fog, especially on the
Banks of Newfoundland. The passengers
were afforded the opportunity of attending
morning service on one Sunday In Queens
town and afternoon service on the following
Sunday in New York. The recent eastward
trip OF the Alaska was accomplished in 2
days and % minutes. Her agents are justly
proud of her magnificent record, and say
that she will yet make the run between
New York and Queenstown in o days and
Is hours. A large number of people went
down to the Guion dock yesterday after.
