STEAAER NOTES. The new turbine
steamship Yale, the largest, finest and fast.
est passenger boat on the entire Atlantic
coast, and built originally to run between
Boston and New York on the Metropolitan
Steamship COmpany's outside route, has
been placed on the International Division of
the Eastern Steamship Company on the
direct line between Boston and St. John,
N. B. B.....Authority having been granted
| by the Commissioner of Navigation
for change of name of steamer sM. and M >
official number 91,s69, gross tonnage So,
notice is given by John NJ. Vogell, collector

steamer is changed to Stockton. May she
have as good luck and make as much money

1.-THE Rockiand Courier-Gazette voices
the sentiments of many in the following
paragraph: twenty-five years ago last
week the steamer PenObscot made her ini-
tial trip on the Boston and Bangor route.
Among the officials we find A. H. Hanscom
as freight clerk. Last week the turbine
steamship Camden made its first trip on the
same route, and among those on board was
Vic SuluC MI. I1ouoCOLu, HOW assistant TO
President Austin. Whether he remember
ed that it was the 25th anniversary, or not,
we do not know, but the fact is interesting
! to note, especially in view OF the promotion.
A note of regret is sounded in this connec-
tion by old patrons of the line, who now
miss from the various steamers practically
all of the officials they knew and liked so
we'll 20 or 25 years ago. Frank Pierce and
Capt Ezra Curtis are about the only sur
vivors. The Camden on arrival at
Boston last Sunday was hauled off for
slight repairs and the Penobscot took
her place for one trip. The Camden re-
sumed the route Tuesday arriving
here Wednesday from Boston. The
Stockton, late M. & NJ, has been running
on the Bucksport Camden route in place of
the Kockland. The seven trips week
schedule on the Boston Bangor route went
into effect Sunday with the departure of
the City of Rockland for Boston. The
Penobscot arrived Monday in place of the
Camden. Arrangements have been made
between Gen. Consul Luther B. Dow of the
Masters, Mates and Pilots Association of
Steamship Co., to increase the salaries of
the masters, mates and pilots, the increases
to be as follows: Masters $125 to $50; first
pilots $85 to 500; second pilots $50 to $40:
chief mates $65 to $50; second mates S45 to
$50
