The announcement by wire to-day of
three fresh charters of vessels from New
York to San Diego recalls the establishment
of such trade by Spreckels Bros. some two
years ago. Although, as can be readily
imagined, San Diego, for the present at
least, is only able to absorb, from time to
time, comparatively limited quantities of
the general merchandise which gees to
make up the cargo of the vessels engaged in
the trade, still the business is on the in
crease. Indeed, as San Diego and the sur
rounding country begin TO assume the
larger mercantile proportions they promise
to, the traffic between the two ports will be
by no means inconsderable in the near
future.
