GOULD WILL RUN
STEAMERS TO ASIA

The prolonged absence of Vice-Pres-
ident and Chief Counsel W. ]. Bartnett
of the Western Pacific> Ra ilroad in Eu-
rope would seem to be partially ex-
planned by cablegram from St.
Petersburg which says that he has
been in the Russian capital sounding
the government on a traffic arrange
ment with the Transsiberian Railway
in connection with the projected Gould
line of steamships from San Fran
cisco.
When the Western Pacific is COM
pleted to tide water on the bay of San
Francisco, it is admitted that the
Gould company will establish a trans.
pacific steamship service in connection
with 1t and thus make a bid for a
share of the trade with the Orient. This
Is too valuable from traffic stand
point For Gould not to be perfecting
plans to control a part of IL against
the Southern Pacific, Santa Fe and
Pacific Mail combine at this port.
Bartnett has been in Europe under
instructions from Gould, and no doubt
has been comforting with various per-
sons about a Western Pacific Oriental
service. Western Pacific officials in
this city, like ]. Dalzell and Virgil G..
Bogue, say that they are not informed
as to what Mr.. Bartnett is doing in
Europe, although they know he was in
st. Petersburg a few days ago and is
now en- route back to London.-San

The Cambrian has been attached to
the Australian station since December
1905, at which time she arrived from
England. She had been previously at
tached to the South American station
but that station has been abolished
as have been the stations on the west
coast of South America. The Cambrian
has at times been on the Mediterranean
list, and was at one time commanded
by Prince Louis Battenberg, father OF
Princess Ena, who is shortly to marry
King Alfonso of Spain.
After leaving Auckland on March 5
the Cambrian went to Suva, arriving
there March II, leaving there three
days later for Honolulu. The two YES
sells will proceed in company from,
Honolulu on April l for Acapulco
Mexico; thence down the coasts of
+hNNi''t NthAiul <Autlltd anu EDbulu
America. They will call at San Jose
tGuatemala), La Union, Anapala,
Punta Arenas, Guayaquil, Callao, Val
paraiso and thence out to Easter Island
Pitcairn Island, Tahiti, Suva again,
and thence to Auckland, arriving there
about the middle of August.
Since the abolishment of the South
American stations. with no warshlps
attached to any place there. the crown
has decided that the British flag fy-
ing above British warhlps should be
shown occasionally at these ports, and
that is the purpose of the present
cruise.
The Flora left Yokohama on March
ii and was practically fifteen days on
the trip. Both the Cambrian and the
Flora are painted n dull gray, similar
to the warpaint used by the American
warships in time of war. They will
each take on 800 tons Of coal and may
commence this work on Tuesday.
In the wardroom of the Cambrian Is
a large portrait of Queen Victoria, pre-
sented by Her Majesty to the vessel
shortly after she went into commission.
When the Cambrlan entered the har-
bor she saluted the American nag
with twenty-one guns,
