BREAKS ROUND THE
HORN RECORD
MAKES THE QUICKEST TINE BE-
TWEEN SAN FRANCISCO AND
NEW YORK.

SAN FRANCISCO December 1.-THE
big American Hawaiian freighter Call
ifornia has smashed allrecords estab-
lished by vessels of her class between
New York and this port. The Califor-
mia arrived here today after a voyage
of 81 days, hours and 26 minutes. The
best previous record for freighters
was held by the steamer Hawaiian,
which came from New York in 81 days
and hours. The California stopped at
Coronel to replenish her coal bunker s.
Her actual steaming time was SO days
and II hours. Instead of rounding
Cape Horn the California steamer
through the Straits of Magellan. She
encountered a terrific storm while
passing through the straits and was
compelled to lie hove to for twenty
one hours to pass through the straits.
Rough weather was encountered on the
entire trim and because of this fact the
California's record is considered re-
markable.
She is laden with a general cargo
amounting to 5000 tons. Her captain,
A. Barron, is making his first trip in
her as master. He was formerly chief
officer on board.
