TWO OR MORE GREAT VESSELS

SAN FRANCISCO, September H..
w. II. Avery general agent Of the
Togo Kisen Kaisha in this city, re-
turned yesterday in the liner Hong
Kong Maru, accompanied by Mrs.
Avery, from a four months soiourn in
the Orient. Mr.. Avery left here on
May 18th in the Nippon Maru, and has
visited Japan, Manila and Hong Kong.
one of the objects of his trip was to
examine the Hamburg American
steamships Hamburg and Kaitchou,
which the Togo Kisen Kaisha contem-
plated purchasing for the line connect
ing this port with the Orient. He look
ed over the vessels in the Orient, and,
while finding them palatial and in
many respects faultless they were
found to be unsuited to the Pacific
trade principally owning to their high
superstrUcture. So the Japanese stock
holders who had depended to a great
extent upon General Agent Averys Cpl
Mon. have decided not to purchase the
vessels.
1t is understood that plans and speci-
fcations for two or more steamers fol-
the San Francisco route have been ap.
proved by the Togo Kisen Kaisha, bu
no contracts for their construction have
yet been awarded. The steamers will
however. be built in Japan, probably
Nagasaki, and will be of about 1,5O
tons capacity, with a speed of nineteei
knots an hour, and thoroughly up t.
date in all their equipment. The Japa
nese stockholders in the company are
from all accounts quite satisfied wit
the showing made by their three liner
on the San Francisco route and inten'
to improve their opportunities in ever,
way possible.

PAINTING THE DOwAGER.

PEKING, September 1O.-It has been
decided that the portrait of the Dow
ager Empress, now being painted by
Miss Kate Augusta Carl, an American
artist shall be exhibited at the st.
Louis Exposition. 1t is contrary to
Chinese traditions to have likenesses
of their semi-sacred rulers made and
at the Chinese court.
The painting of the portrait was sug-
gested and the consent of the Empress
to sit was obtained by Mrs. Conger,
wife of the United States Minister.
Miss Carl has resided in the palace for
the past month as a guest, with apart
ments near the Empress, who gave her
daily sittlngs. Miss Carl has frequent
ly dined with the imperial household,
