EUREKA's STEAM SERVICE.
On the occasion OF the recent accident to
the steamer Humboldt one of the paSSen-
gers made some comments on the character
of the Eureka steamboat service In It's
issue OF the 3lst ult. the Daily Humboldt
Times Of Eureka has the following:
Tie idea That the humboldt IL inferior 10 the
others as 4 barbnaU IS absurd. Tie HUmb0ld;
has been running here since her construction IN
1873 and the accident 20 Captain Brandt was
the first one she ever met with IN crossing the
bar The majority of peUui- here give th. Hum
bO.dt credit To- being tue best bar boat mat ever
crossed luTo our harDor She was construct ed
foi that object alone, and crosses the bar when
other steamers could not cross. The lays
mentioned aS occurring during tie past season
have been 0ccasl0ued more from the shoalng OF
our channels and The rOuLhness OF the bar Incl
deul TO unusual storms rather Than 20 The quality
OF cur steamers. The people OF humboldt are
deSuOus of having the Pomona return TO THIS
route aud she Is undoubtedly better Dlr-Duat
than the Los Angeles, but when they beat The
Humboldt as bar boat We tuIuk the bar Will
have 10 be improved
The JohnSUn-Locke COMPANY, agents for
the American steamer MacEuaw, which

DEEP-WATER ARRIVALS.

THE CRUISER BALTIMORE.
The Baltimore is still at the Mare Island
Dry-d Ok. 1t is said that on examination

fOUled as was expected. Up TO the present
time only her officers have been permitted
TO land, but on Saturday Captain Schley
VIII begin 90 give some OF his men little
liberty. The inquiry now going on at
Mare Island is expected TO end on Saturday.

Washington.
The Schiller and Sierra Pedrosa have
been taken to Por: Costa 10 load wheat for
Europe. There are seven ships in the
wheat loading list whose charters are no
good because Of the inability OF the char
terers'to load them. These are practically
free ships, as they are open for any bust
ness that may OFF, 1t is probable that most
OF them Will take wheat.
