BACK IN BUSINESS AGAIN.
Steam Sehooners Are Resunins Their
Runs Out Of San Francisco.

Runs Out Of San Francisco.
An Associated Press dispatch re-
ceived yesterday from San Francisco
conveys the pleasing intelligence that
the steam schooners which were laid up
in Oakland creek as result of the
strikes occurring among the employees
are again resuming their respective
runs to northern coast points. During
the strikes, first of the marine en-
gineers and then of the masters and
walters, practically all Of the vessels
were put out Of commission, and the
coastwise trade was more or less de-
moralized. Now that the strikers de-
mands have been adjusted. the vessels
are resuming their business.
During the past few days seven Of
the steam schooners have left the Bay
city for northern ports to load lum-
ber The entire feet has been taken
out of the creek and prepared for trips
to the north, and generally settlement
of the difficulties has been character
ized by activity.
While the strike was on many sail
ing schooners were chartered to load
lumber, but the resumption of the
steam schooner traffic will not ma
terially affect the status Of these yes
sells. The lumber business has been
very dull for several months past, and
in almost every other northern town
the mills have ben closed down en-
tirely, or are operating five hours daily.
The Hume mill is now running five
days week, but the other mills are
working full time. When the lumber
trade picks up there will be plenty of
work for the coasting carriers, steam
and sail.

Takes Out Large Consisn.
ment of Coffin Nails.
DEPARTS FOR THE ORIENT

More Than 500, ,O00-Steam
Scho0ners Resume Their
Runs-0ther Marine News

The China Commercial liner Lothian
departed Sunday for the orient. with q
full cargo of merchandise and Other
products. The Lothian's cargo is valued
at s6,77O. Flour was the principal item
on her manifest, and she also took
about one-fourth of an ordinary ship
load OF barley. Japanese firms have
been purchasing considerable barley
here, presumably for use of the army,
and every vessel departing for the far
east takes more or less of the cereal.
For Kobe. Japan, the Lothian takes
25,s2s bushels of barley. worth $14,-
760; 1850 barrels of -four. valued at
$4,000; 500 cases of condensed milk,
worth, si,7SO, and 600 cases of salmon,
worth s1.560
Four conslgnments of 5,7l5 barrels of
-four go to Yokohama, of the value of
s22,4O0, An organ, valued at s545O,
is consigned to Foochow, China, prob
ably for some missionary who will seek
to instill religion into the heathens
brain with the aid OF music.
One of the remarkable showings of
the Lothian's manifest Is the large
quantity of cigarettes sent out. There
are four consignments in all, and the
total number of coffin nails sent out
is $4,000, 900, which ought to help the
undertakers in the far east. The cigar
ette shipment is worth s15,4OO and goes
to Shanghai.
The next of the China Commercial
steamships to arrive will be the Ching
Woo. She ought to put in an appear
ance about April is. Like all of the
other China Commercial liners. she is
coming by way of Salinas Cruz, the
Mexican port Of call of this line.

ments Of money during the week. The
net gain of cash BY the banks was 500. 100
while the estima ted increase was 81. T0Q.
Considering the fact that the statement
must have included the withdrawal from
the banks OF S2,0000a0 on Friday for ship
ment 10 Paris, which would count for
one day or about $500 100 in the averages
ana that the estimates included only the
withdrawal Of 81. 250.0oG on Wednesday for
export on Thursday, an average Aof about
S6DOW. the slight discrepancy between
the estimated loss and the actual gain
may be easily accounted for. The most
significant fact shown both by the state
ment and the estimates. however is that
the movement Of money to the interior
Tor crop purposes has not only greatly
diminished in volume but that there are
almost unmistakable indications of a turn
hlther IN the monetary tide Though the
statement was made on declining aver
ages for cash, owing TO the bringing over
into this bank this week of 81, 250. coo gold
which was withdrawn for export Wednes-
day and Friday. this fact IS not impOr-
tant for there will doubtless be received
on Monday about S500OSe japanese gold,
which arrived at San Francisco on Sat
urday. Moreover. the turn in the interior
monetary tide will most likely cause with
drawals hereafter Of gold for export to
be offset by receipts of currency from
the country.
