Is still coming this way and 1t Is only
question of time when the commerce OF
the Orient and Southern Seas will make
this port the greatest in the world.
Among the latest of the new fleet Is the,
four-masted schooner Otelia Petersen.
She has completed her maiden round voy-
age and her owners had $500 to divide
among themselves as the net returns
frt m the venture. She is 207 feet long, SO
feet beam and IA feet inches deep. with
q capacity Of a million feet. Of lumber.
From Fiilo she brought a cargo OF sugar
Mere and there was not a bag of the whole

The Otelia Petersen is managed by Cap
master and managing owner OF the bark

with him have two more vessels almost
named the William F. Garms. after the
we'll known proprietor Of the Milwaukee
brewery, and the other will be christened

launched November 1 at Everett, Wash:
She is 235 feet long. 40. feet beam and Ae
feet inches beam. with a capacity of
100000 feet of lumber. The Lunsmann
will not be ready for launching until

be an exact duplicate Of the CAIRNS.
All three vessels. will come from the

every ship owner and Ship master on the
