San Francisco, Sept. %. - The
arrival of the steamer China this
morning was welcomed by the Pa.
cific Mail Company. She was
wanted still as a transport, but the
company represented to the au
thorities at Washin = ton that the
Government had olready taken
nine of its ships, and that it would
be unfair to take from it the China
or the City of Picking. The COM
pany has made contracts to trans
port large cargoes of cotton from
New Orleans to China, and nee, 8
It's largest vessels to carry out
these contracts. The City of Pek-
lug had already been released, and
the China will be turned over to
the Company as soon as she is
restored to the condition she was
in before being taken as trans e.
port. The Picking is scheduled to
sail on October |, and all her
available freight space has been
taken up.
The Oceanic Steamship Com
pany's steamer Zealandla, which
carried part of the second expedi
ton to the Philippines, i, on the
drydock at Nagasaki, and the Gov
eminent will have a big bill to
pay for repairs before she is turn
ed over to her owners. She was
on the drydock when the China
left Nagasaki, and it was thought
that her repairs would not be com
pleted for three weeks. This was a
fortnight ago.
The gunboat Yorktown will be
placed in commission in about two
weeks. 1t is expected that she will
be brought to San Francisco in a
fortnight, and after getting her
coal on board will sail to the Asia
tic station, possibly to Manila.
