STEAMSHIP TRAFFIC

Some interesting statistics of the traffic
of Atlantic steamship lines are published
by the London periodical, Engineering. 1t
is shown that in 1894 there arrived at the
port of New York from Europe S79 pas
senger vessels; 81 fewer than in 1888
The number of passengers arriving also
declined only one half the number of i'm
migrants in 1888 appearing on the steam
ship records for 1894.
The falling off in transatlantic travel
seems to have affected the White Star,
the North German Lloyd, the Hamburg,
and the French lines about alike. While
the total number of passengers-cabin
and steerage-is not much greater for the
North German line than for the White
Star or American, and little less than
for the Cunard, the number of trips was
nearly double, making the average per
trip, of course, much less. OF cabin pas
sengers the Cunard carried 1923 per trip on
the average, the American 283 and the
White Star pol
The statistics of emigrant passengers
are not given with corresponding fullness;
yet some facts may be stated. The only

OUR GIFT TO FLORIDA
SAN FRANCISCO CHRONICLE

Los Angeles, the place where the South
ern Citrus Fair is being held, is oveYrun
with oranges, lemons, pomegranates and
other tropical and semi-tropical fruits,
and Eastern visitors have long since ex-
hausted their vocabulary OF commenda-
tory epthets and expressions, and have
fallen back upon that silence which, like
San Diego, San. Bernardino, Riverside.
Orange and Los Angeles counties-and
the Chronicle apologies if any county
has been omitted-there has come stream
"a torrent of citrus fruits, which has as
tonished even those to the manor born,
but who have not kept pace with the de-
velopment OF the citrus fruit industry in
Southern California.
But the interesting feature of the South
crn citrus belt this year is that the
choicest orchards are being drawn upon
to supply Florida with oranges. The peo-
pie who have gone from the North to
winter in Florida have naturally insisted
upon having oranges and since the
Floridans had none for them they have
done the best they could, and ordered
them by the car load from California.
This is only an episode, it may be con-
coded, but nevertheless there has never
has had to bring oranges from Florida.
Our Southern citrus belt has never been
blizzard ridden, and we venture to say it
never will be. Fortunately we have
oranges enough this year to supply
Florida. and such oranges as are above
suspicion or reproach, and it gives us
pleasure to come to the relief OF the only
other state in the Union which has made
orange growing a business. Hereafter, II
Florida shall boast about her oranges. all
California will have to do will be to re call
to her the year 1895.

AN UNJUST MEASURE

The anti-scalpers bill which has passed
the Assembly and gone to the Senate, is
par excellence the most clear-cut railroad
measure that has been before the present
Legi stature for consideration.
The bill is irredeemably bad 1t has
not one good clause to recommend it and
the only excuse any legislator, who takes
the trouble to read it, can offer for voting
for it, is desire to please the greedy
railroad corporations that are bowling
for its passage.
Surely, there can be no good reason why
a man who buys, say for instance, ticket
from New Orleans to San Francisco,
should not, if he saw fit, get off at Los
Angeles and sell the unused portion of
his ticket to some person desiring to pur-
chase the same.
The railroad company has been paid
for the ticket. The purchaser of the
ticket is entitled to his passage and it
can make no difference to the railroad
company whether the original purchaser
rides or some one else rides in his pllce.
1t does make a difference, however, to
the corporation il it can prevent the pur-
chaser of the unused portion of the ticket
from riding on it, as it can compel him
liz that case to pay two fares
Under the present bill ii a man should
buy ticket lie could not transfer it even
to his wife.
The measure is an unjust discrimina.
ton against the travelling public and it is
to be hoped that even if it passes Gov
ernor Budd will veto it.

gers in 1894 than in 1898 was the Ameri-
can, which increased this class Of their
traffic from II, 900 to 15,905. The Cunard
carvings decreased from $4,000 to 10, It's;
while the VIII te Star lost heavily, from
1897 to II $40. The falling off in emigra-
ton bore hard upon the North German
Lloyd, for their steamers carried on an
average $50 per trip in 1893 and but 1 80
last year. Four years ago the Hamburg
line brought 70, $50 Storage passengers
from Hamburg, the number steadily de-
Ginning to but Is, 463 in 1894. Six smaller
lines included in the first table carried
"a, 491 emigrants into New York harbor in
1888, and but "a, 07s last year.
These figures seem to show that trans
atlantic travel. when feeling the effects of
the business depression, follows the rule
which we have seen illustrated in our land
ndustries-namely, that the companies
which have an old established business
with good facilities and plenty of capital
are able to stand the storm and retain
their trade better than others; and further,
that enterprise is prime factor in sue

AN AMERICAN OUTPOST
cess,

Lieutenant John A. Hartman of the
United States Army, in well-fortified ar
ticle on the political importace OF Hawaii,
published by the North American Re-
view for March, claims that island as an
American state. 1t is embraced, he says,
in the American commercial and military
system. The United States has for many
years past kept warships at Honolulu,
and has exercised a friendly suzeranty
over the isl ,nds which is without parallel
in the history of the world. The attitude
of this Government has been that of a
de facto supremacy, in reality protecto-
rate. The treaties that have beon discussed
and ratified between these countries have
been for the closest reciprocity and for a
restriction upon the disposal of Ha-
waiian bays, harbors and crown lands to
other nations; and attempts have been
made by both to have ratified treaties of
annexation. Indeed, for the past fifty
years this has been a question familiar
alike to Americans and Hawaiians, and
its importance increases with each new
event in the Pacific and with each island
seized there by European maritime powers.
In 1886 Hawaii was nearer to the United
States than to the territory of any other
country. Now the English possession,
johnson Island, acquired in 1891, is only
600 miles away. England has also seized
and fortified Tanning and Christmas is
lands, forming a chain of possessions to-
ward Australia. France and Germany
have not been far behind Great Britain.
Both have strongly fortified stations n the
Pacific. 1t is notable fact that European
powers, especially England, have been
Strengthening themselves more and more
in the Pacific as an isthmian canal has be-
come possibility of the near futu e. Eng
land has a chain of fortified stations
around the world at intervals of 5000 miles
or less, guarding all the main thorough
fares of trade on the globe. There is
single flaw, the non -pos ession of Hawaii
She is weaker in the Pacific than in any
other quarter of the world. The possess
sion of Hawaii would make her strong
where now she is weak, would make her
the mistress of the Pacific as now she is
mistress of the Atlantic.
