NEW AMERICAN LINE
Atlantic Shipping Company Is
to Enter Field.
SUBSIDIZED FOR MAILS
VESSELS WILL STOP AT BERE-
HAVEN, SHORTENING TIME.

New York, Sept. IA dispatch to
the World from London. says:
An official communication has been
received from Dover concerning the use
of that port by the new line of trans
Atlantic mail steamers. to be built and
owned IN the United States and called
the Atlantic Shipping company
This company has been formed for
the purpose of running weekly steamers
between New York and England and
the continent. it is stated, and is to be
subsidized BY the United States for
carrying mails.
The first port for these liners on this
side of the Allan I" Will be Berehaven,
on the extren1 : -u-F vest coast of Ire
land at the mt Pr. l. of BantFy bay
This is a naHaI s,--I n for the British
fleet, and is defe1ded by forts erected
on en- island and on the mainland Il
contains all The neceSSarles, including
depth of water. for such a port
Among the bills passed by parlia-
ment last session was one enabling a
railway to be constructed from the pier
in Berehaven harbor almost in
straight line to ROSSlare, on the east
coast, where the great western rail-
way of England is now establishing a
line of fast mail steamers to do the
fifty-seven miles passage to F'ishguard,
Wales, in two and three-quarterS hours.
The effect of this arrangement viii
be that a special train leaving Bere-
haven with mails and passengers viii
be at PaddingtOn in less than thirteen
hours. This, as compared with Queens
town route is a clear gain of over eight
hours in time, as Berehaven is six hours
west of Queenstown. On the many OC-
casiOns of stormy weather, when mail
steamers cannot get into Queenstown
and must proceed TO Liverpool, the gain
will be increased, as BerehaV en- harbOr
is available in ali WeatherS. It has two
entrances. perfectly sheltered, with
forty to fiftv fathOms of water
The steamers of this new line, after
leaving BeTehaven, Will call at Havre
and then come on to Dover, SubSe-
quently proceeding to Flushing.
The steamers are to be constructed
TO maintain an average speed of
twenty-five knots across the Atlantic
a subsidy being conditional on this
speed.

SERIOUS KANSAS WHEAT JAM
FARMERS FORCED TO DUMP
GRAIN ON THE GROUND.
Elevators Are Full and the Railroads
Are Unable to Take Care of the
Crop.

Kansas City. Sept 1.-The extensive
yards of the Santa Fe railroad in Ar
sentine are almost exclusively occu-
pied with cars of wheat which it is i'm
possible to move
1t was estimated that there were
twenty miles of wheat cars there this
morning.
The trouble is said to be due to the
inability OF the Chicago division of the
road to handle the great inflow of
wheat from the various branch lines in
Kansas The difficulty is not so much
from a car famine as ii is due to the
lack OF motive power to keep the lines
cleared.
All the other roads in Kansas are
unable TO handle the wheat offered
All the elevators are full and farm
ers are dumping wheat in big piles on
the ground near the railroad stations.
