Plymouth. Oct 6--The North German Lloyd
steamer Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse. Captain

here al sos this afternoon. The time of passage
from New-York to Plymouth was five days. ny
teen hours and ten minutes. the big ships aN ,

Thus has this new steamship captured oo'h

Tho Kaiser,s daily runs were "o', wi ''o'
5o7 40 and SO miles. The best previous rec
ord TO Plymouth was six days. nine hours ana
tventy-four minutes made by the furst BIS
marck in August. 1895. The Kaiser has thus
lowered this record by eighteen hours and four

later. This would have made her time to South
ampton five days. twenty one hours and ten
minutes The best time OF the ST. Louis. which
made the record to Southampton last month was
six days ten hours and fourteen minutes. me
St Louis on that trip covered 3.osi miles. at an
average hourly speed of 1854 knots Thus the
feet ST. Louis was beaten on the total time by
nineteen hours and four minutes. and on the
hourly speed by 2.j1 knots.
The ieetest ship ahoat, the Cunarder Lucania,
made an average hourly speed on her record

Of poi knots 10 knots better than the pres

other than the Kaiser's were made by Well
lmbered machinery in pleasant weather. Ac-
cording to all reports brought by incoming Ves-
sells TO this port. very heavy weather has pre-
vailed on the Atlantic for the last week or so
This makes the Kaisers feat all the more credit
able. .
Ii will be remembered that on her maiden
trip to this port, ending on September ~. the
Kaiser broke all previous westward records
from Southampton, with the time of five DAYS
twenty-five hours and thirty-ive minutes. Her
average was 21.39 knots an hour. 1t VIII be
seen that on her run just completed she has
bettered this average by 40 knots The North
