NEW STEAMSHIP LINE TO FAR
EAST.

Saattlo, WASH, March 2--The Post
Intelligoncer says:
There is understood to be one of the
greatest deals on hand as affecting tho
interests OF the northwest that has yet
been accomplished. 1t is the building Of
several new steamships which will be
put on line between Seattle and the
Orient by the Great Northern Railroad
company. This is supposed to be the
real Significance of present visit to the
Sound of President Hill and other prom.
inent officials. 1t is the intention to run
service direct from Seattle to Yukoha-
ma and Hong Kong, with other vessels
going to Vladiaostock. For this it will
be necessary to have at least six vessels
to give monthly service. There will be
$40, 900, 900 spent on the enterprise, most
OF which will go purchasing and building
vessels. 1t is believed that it will be at
least one year before the line via be in
operation.

RAKE OFF FOR SOME ONE.

Havana. March 2.-The army officers
here, and the m rchants and contrac-
tors, all who have any financial transac-
lions In which the government is con
cerned. are loud in their denunciations
of Alger and his methods. Pay vouchers
aud drafts on the government are all
stamped, This must be cashed at the
National American Trust Company, "
Cuba sereet havana.
This company is the recognized fiscal
agency OF the American government in
Cuba, made SO by Ayers order. The
trust company charges per cent for cash
ing drafts and vouchers. All the other
banks in the city charge only one'quar-
ter of l per cent. The officials of the
trust company here admit this. One OF
them said today;
"We exact 1 per cent upon an order
from the war department, signed by Sec
rotary Al9er.
1t Is suspected here that some one in
Washington is sharing in the profits OF
the present financial system.
