NEW STEAMERS FOR HERE
HAWAIIAN ISLAND NAVIGATION
COMPANY.
To be an Adjunct of the Kerens- Clarke
Railroad From Salt Lake to Los
Angeles.

SALT LAKE, Utah, July 27.-The
Herald tomorrow will say: The San
Pedro road is not to stop at the San
Pedro harbor. By the time the last
spike has been driven a fleet of ocean
steamers will be flying the flag of the
Hawaiian Islands Natipation Com
pany as an adjunct to the road. These
steamers will ply between San Pedro
harbor, Honolulu, Yokohama, China
and the Philippines, and controlling
interest in the stock of the company
will be owned by the same men who
control the San Pedro Los Angeles and
Salt Lake Railroad.
r. G. Kerens of st. Louis, who reach
ed Salt Lake from California yester-
day, said that the company is now be-
ing formed.
Many details yet remain to be per-
fected," said Kerens, but the steam
ship line is a certainty. There are to
be ten large steamers for passenger
and freight traffic and they will be
second to none in the Oriental trade.
The steamers will work in conjunction
with the road and be practically a part
of the same corporation. We have
several of te steamers already. They
are in the transport service at present
but by the time we need them for our
service the carrying of soldiers to and
from the Philippines will be about com
pleted."
