SAN FRANCISCO, July 2S.-Within a
week the Oceanic Company's steamer
Alameda, now at the Risdon Iron Works
undergoing repairs, will be ready for
business, but is not to go into commits
sion again until September LIST. At that
time the Alameda will take the place of
the Mariposa on the Honolulu route,
and the Mariposa will go to the Risdon
Iron Works for new boilers and to have
her engines changed from compound to
the triple-eXpansion type. The same
change has been made in the Alameda,
which will be able to make sixteen
knots an hour. Both the Alameda and
Mariposa are looked upon In steamship
circles as particularly good vessels,
and with more modern engines should
be able to add to their reputation.

media, who has been on a visit to Ire

He declared that the Constitution is not
doing herself justice; that she is not
going well, and that there is no use in
racing her further until she is put in
proper shape.

advanced sharply on what looked like COW
ering of shorts. The stock, no doubt, was
oversold after the announcement OF ad-
verse tax decision made in Chicago some
days ago. The cOalers were less active
than yesterday and made no material
change in prices. Amalgamated Copper,
which was heavy during the first hour.
became positively weak toward the close,
selling down TO the lowest price reached
for some time. The bank statement was
a complete surprise inasmuch as ii showed
a gain in cash of nearly $,G0000. All pre-
liminary estimates OF the currency move
ments of week pointed TO a decrease in
cash of some 1890 600, consequently there
was discrepancy of nearly $500, 900, which
is wholly unaccountable. The increase in
loans, amounting TO 100000, was rather
larger than expected and was mainly
caused by the recent purchase of the Poca-
hontas Coal Company. The favorable
nature OF the bank statement resulted in
an advance throughout the whole list In
which ST. Paul was the leader, selling as
high as 11A. During the last ten minutes,
however, a general reaction took place.
and although the market closed above the
opening, ii showed losses as compared with
the highest prices of the day.
