Eng Hok Fong, president of the
China Commercial Steamship Company,
is a through passenger on the Doric for
Hongkong. Mr.. Eng Hok Fong has
been in Mexico for sometime looking
after the business of the company there
and also in San Francisco.
The president of the steamship COM
pany, which is being given a battle
royal by the Pacific Mail Steamship
Company but still stays by it's purpose
despite discouragements and disasters.
is a man who means business. He is
small sized Chinese, with a remark
ably keen and intelligent face. He
speaks English we'll and is thoroughly
conversant with affairs of the world
Despite his Occidental leanings-for the
upbuilding of traffic in ocean commerce
is more occidental than Oriental-Mr.
Eng Hok Fong wears Chinese garb
with flowing skirts of the handsomest
silks.
Before the Advertiser man could put
questions to him as he sat on the hur-
ricane deck of the Doric, the president
turned interviewer, and asked several
questions concerning world affairs. He
first asked for a synopsis of the sit
uation between Japan and Russia, and
desired particularly to know how China
was faring in the matter. Then he
made inquiries concerning the Panama
troubles. The presence of Admiral
Evans fleet in the harbor Interested
him and he frightened up when told
the fleet would sail for the Orient this
morning.
AS to the affairs of his company, to
which the we'll known steamer Claver-
ing belongs, he replied briefly that the
company was still in line for business.
At the time he was talking Mr.. Eng
Hok Fong was busily engaged in de-
ciphering cable message which had
to do with the Clavering, and it is
probable that he will effect a settle
ment of the Clavering matter while in
port.
II have been in Mexico looking after
our interests there" he said. Every
thing regarding the landing of Chinese
coolies in Mexico has been satisfactory
ly arranged, and believe our company
will have plenty of business TO do, with
that country, at least. I placed invest
ments in Mexico for the benefit of our
country, so you see we are in the bust
ness of running steamers for business.

Pacific Mail Company and the China
Commercial Company? Well, they do
their business and 1 do mine,' he an
swered automatically. II intend to
stay with the business despite all eff
forts to displace us from participating
in the trade of the Pacific.
AS to whether our company will
make Honolulu a port of call at any
time, I am not now in a position to
say. I have been away from Hongkong
for many months and will know better
how to answer that question when 1

The Pacific Mail is still waging war

is reduced to 81 per ton by the former
company whenever the vessels of the
