Capt. Frank Dethloff, master of the
three-masted schooner Susie b. Dantz-
Ter, gave his family n trip to Mexico,
last voyage. They returned in fine
health and spirits and were delighted
with the visit. Capt. Dethloff is of the
opinion that a steamer regularly plying
between this port, which is so we'll
known, and Vera Cruz, would meet
with a fine passenger and freight pat
ronage as the marked increase of COM
munication demands. There is direct
railway transportation between Vera
Cruz and the City of Mexico. Pascagou-
la will soon tap the Mexican, Cuban,
Central and South American traffic
which naturally will come here, owing
to its marine location.
