Commands a wind-Jammer.

Captain J. III. Lane is again in COM
mand of a wind-jammer. In the old days
he was master of the Germania. then Of
the Cleaner, then of the Harry Morse
and then he moved over to the steamship
Valencia. Now he gives up the latter and
goes back to sail and will take the Ken
nebec from here along the coast and then
to Australia. AS a shipmaster Captain
Lane mas made a record all along the
coast and the Pacific Steam Whaling
Company is more than sorry to lose his
services. As the chances are that the
Valencia will be sold to the highest bidder
in the near future she will probably go
into some foreign trade. Captain Lane
did not want to take any chances, so he
moved bag and baggage from the Valen-
cia TO the KenDebec.

NORTHERN PACIFIC ROAD
TO LOWER FREIGHT RATES
New Schedule Will Cover Territory
Between st. Paul and the Pa
cific Coast

ST. PAUL, Dec. 27.-The Northern Pa
cifc will soon announce d revision of it's
principal freight tariffs, covering the ter
ritory between st. Paul and the Pacific
Coast and establishing lower through
rates. Similar tariffs will be announced
at the same time by the Great Northern.
Northern Pacific rate clerks have been
at work on the revision for more than
two months. 1t is stated semi officially
that the important feature OF the new
tariffs will be the removal of diScrimina-
tions that have gradually grown for sew
eral years. and radical changes, especially
in local rates, that will adjust many sub
jects of complaints from shippers The
neW Great Northern tariffs will be con-
structed on SIMILAR lines Both roads, IL
is asserted, will make voluntary reduc-
tiOns in rates, based upon the increased
earning capacity of their lines and the
growth of revenue.
