c. P. N. May Put Steamer on
 Seattle. Victoria Route.

A Vancouver dispatch ot recent date, says that the Canadian Pacific Nayiga- tion Company will probably begin com petition with the Puget Sound Naviga- tion Company on the Seattle-Victoria route after July 1. The plan is to use the new steamer Princess Victoria on the run. She would leave Vancouver go Co Victoria, from Victoria to Seat tie, back to Victoria, thence return to Vancouver. It is figured that she could make this round trip daily and still have several hours to spend in the towns on the route.
 There is said to be no doubt about the capacity of the steamer to run a double service like this. She can keep up an average speed of 20 miles an hour for the days run. The Princess Vic toria's house and upper decks are now being put in place. She is 200 feet in length, is much similar in appearance to the steamer Islander which was wrecked two years ago, and is the only steamer on the coast which has three tunnels.
 The Victoria was built at Newcastle, Eng, and is easily the fastest boat on the coast. She is guaranteed to make the trip between Vancouver and Vic toria in three and a half hours, the dis tance being little over 70 miles.
