Passenger Agent Fee, Of the Northern Pacific,
yesterday showed a telegram which he re-
ceived from the railway company's agent in
Seattle, saying that President Colgrove, Of
the steamship company, assured him that the
steamship company would accord to the
Northern Pacific its share of traffic from Hon
olulu In return for any traffic the railway COM
pany diverted to the steamship line. The
steamship company has secured the United
States mail contract and is starting out in
most promising way.
Very few people," said Mr.. Fee, "realize
that the distance from Seattle to Honolulu Is
but barely 200 miles greater than the distance
from San Francisco to Honolulu. This addi-
tional distance is more than offset by the
high price OF coal at San Francisco as COM
pared with the price of coal at Seattle II
steamers are to be economically operated they
cannot afford to pay S12 or $15 per ton for
coal in San Francisco and SIS to $40 per ton
In Honolulu, when they coal for the round
trip at Seattle at price less than half the
rates first named. San Francisco has had the
majority of this travel in the past but it
certainly looks as though the monopoly had
been broken, as no less than three lines Of
trading vessels have already announced sail
tngs between Seattle and Honolulu The run
from Seattle to Honolulu will not exceed
seven and one-nalf days against the regu-
lar seven-day trip heretofore made from San
Francisco to Honolulu
Something Of the magnitude Of the COM
merce with Hawaii may be gathered from the
following summary of vessels which entered

The members Of the Western Trunk
line committee got to work promptly
al 10 o'clock yesterday morning, but.
though they were N session at the
Aberdeen all day they did not finish
more than a quarter OF the docket. 1t
IS likely that the committee will re-
main in session tomorrow, though the
members expected to complete their
business today.
number Of routine matters were
diSTos "a of teFore the committee reach
ed anything vital to the roads in this
section. One of the most important
matters settled was the question OF
reconsigning and storing shingles In
transit. 1t was decided that the prac-
tice should be stopped as it gave ship
pers opportunities to escape the pay
ment of full freight rates to local
points. BY billing a carload Of shingles
to a terminal point, shippers are able
to get low rates, and they have been
In the habit of sidetracking them at
some Intermediate station where they
would let the car remain length Of
time and then reconsign them to an
other destination without paying eX-
ira freight. If the roads forbid that
practice shippers will be obliged to bill
the goods to their correct destination
ir the first instance.
Another subject that was taken up
was the meeting of outside competition
between meetings of the committee.
The committee recommended that in
such cases a road that wants to meet
a cut by another line should notify
the board of commissioners Of its pur-
pose and act upon the decision Of that
board.
With the exception of G. z. Wilson,
of the Wisconsin Central a full atten-
dance of the committee was present.
Nearly all the committeeman went
bicycling last evening after the meet
ing adjourned. The session Will be re-
sumed at 10 o'clock today.
