UNION COMPANY RESIGNS
NO LONGER SPRECKELS AGENCY
IN NEW ZEALAND.
Expects to Get the Mail Contract for
Itself and Run Steamers Here. D.
Spreckels' Mission.

J. ID. Spreckes, who passed through
here yesterday on the Ventura is on his
way to New Zealand and Sydney to
look after the British mail contract and
to arrange for new agencies for the
Oceanic steamship company in the
colonies. The Union Steamship Com
pany of New Zealand has withdrawn
from the Spreckels agency on account
of expectation that the latter will not
keep the mail contract. The Union
company hopes to get the subsidy for
itself The Union Company is the one
which was recently reported as having
purchased the Warrimoo. 1t owns the
Moana and many other large steamers
and is believed to be about to establish
a line from Sydney to Victoria, via Ho-
nolulu and Auckland.
Spreckels stated yesterday that he
intended to make the round trip on the
Ventura, so that he will have only a
few hours in Auckland. 81 do not
know what is the status of the mail

shall know when l get there and see
the New Zealand government about it. :"
The president of the Spreckels Com
pany had not been in Honolulu for nine
years until he came on the Ventura.
He expressed himself as greatly sur
prised at the great changes in the city,
which has grown very much since he
last saw it. The last decade has seen
very many of the largest and best
buildings go up here, and Spreckels was
duly impressed with the evidences of
progress. He met many old acquain-
tances while in Honolulu and had quite
a send-off on board the steamer.

FLOODS AT KAHULUI.

WAILUKU, February 1S.-On We'd
nesday, the waters in the vicinity of
Kahului accumulated at that place, and
all kahului was again flooded. The
lake of muddy water between Kahului
and Spreckelsville overlooked on ac-
count of not having an outlet and
gathered at Kahului. A big trench was
cut from the lake to the sea, but the
water found a lower level, the conse-
quence being the Kahului flood. On
Wednesday, it was discovered that a
lighter with sixty fathoms of anchor
chair on her was missing. The tug Ia
lula was sent to sea- and after a long
search for the missing lighter, they had
to come back to the harbor battling
the storm, but without the treasure.
The floods caused several washouts
at Kahului and the railroad was seri-
ously damaged. No trains ran on
Thursday and Friday, and on Saturday
traffic was resumed only between Paia
and Kahului.
The four-masted schooner Churchill
at Kihei bad many struggles with the
storm, but she came out safe in the

PACIFIC MAIL AT NOME.
May Give Up Central American Bust
ness.

ness.
SAN FRANCISCO, February AR.
T. Schwerin emphatically denies the
report from Seattle that the steamers
Sydney, Para and Peru have been
chartered to or purchased by the Paci-
1c Clipper Line for the Cape Nome
trade.
Despite this assurance on his part
there are several people interested in
shipping matters who believe that it is
the intention of the Pacific Mail to
abandon the Central American trade
and that If these steamers have not al
ready been chartered they eventually
Will be, as the competition is getting
fiercer.
The Panama Railroad line is at pres
ent only running steamers direct to Pa
mama, but they intend to get some
more vessels and call in at way ports
for coffee. The Cosmos Line, owned
by Hamburg company, of which ].
ID. Spreckels d Co. is the agent on this
Coast, are at present running a month
ly service between this port, all the
Mexican and Central American ports
and Europe
The Pacific Steam Navigation Com
pany vessels are running between here
and Valparaiso and have at present
three vessels, with the expectation to
put more on in the near future
The Pacific Mail has now four vessels
tied up in this port and have also called
in their two small coffee boats. 1t is
thought that the Alaska Commercial
Company may charter some of the
steamers that the Pacific Mail has. The
boats the company has been using in
the Central American trade are small,
having a freight capacity of from 200
tons to 1,500 tons. They are too small
to be put on the China run and are
great coal consumers, being old-style
boats.
The Pacific Mail Company has long
had a monopoly of the Central Ameri-
can business and they have always
maintained high rates. Their style of
doing business in these Central Ameri-
can ports has not endeared them to
that public and so when the opposition
steamers put in bid for the traffic
they were given every announcement.
1t is said that since the opposition
steamer commenced business several of
the Pacific Mail steamers returned to
San Francisco without enough freight
to act for ballast The fact that the
Para brought here considerable freight
was because it was through New York
freight, which is not regarded as very
profitable to the company.
