En- Route to India.

DEAR CALEDONIAN:
We are nearing Bombay again. From
London we passed overland by rail tc
MarsclIles in France and took French
steamer for Bombay. Every berth in the
ship was engaged and she was full OF
cargo even up to the deck, with several
tons OF iron dashed to the deck. MANY OF
me passengers are 'Engllshmen connected
with the government service in India re.
turning to their posts after few months
leave. An India official is usually en-.
TITLED to one months leave yearly. MANY
let this accumulate till they have three
months and then run home to England
and spend their vacation there. Hence
in October all ships for India are crowded.
These French ships are little more than
hall the size OF the Atlantic boats, but
they are well built and safe. These run
from Marsellles to Yokohama, Japan,
touching at Port Said. Suez, Aeon, Bonn.
bay, Ceylon, Singapore, Hong Kong
Shanghai Kobi, ETC., etc. At every sta.
ton passengers are dropped and others
taken aboard.
The Suez canal is constantly being en-
larged and improved. | think that the
number OF large dredging machines now
at work deepening and widening it is not
less than one hundred. Ships now with
the aid OF a powerful electric light at
tached to the bow 90 through by night.
The heavy tolls paid provides a constant
income Tor working the canal. Our ship
pays about $4,000 toll. This canal
has changed the entire trade of the East
Inc coalIng stations established on the
opening of the canal have grown to be
cities with populations called together
from almost every nation under the sun.
Port SAID was but part OF the desert
barely raised above the sea, and Alden
was bare rock with scarcely tree or
shrub both are now busy cities.
Our passage has been very pleasant,
with no storm to break the variety, but
with heat very oppressive on the Red sea.
