FUTURE OF
THE OCEANIC
NEW COMPANY MAY BE FORMED,
OR STEAMERS SOLD FOR BOND
HOLDERS.

SAN FRANCISCO, July THE Ex-
aminer says: The Oceanic Steamship
Company, a Spreckels property which
defaulted in its semi-annual interest
last January, paid it yesterday the
amount being SGO,175. 1t will default
on its July semi-annual interest due
tomorrow, but will have an equity per-
iOd of six months, or until the end of
the year, in which to pay. By this
means the Spreckels family will get an
additional breathing spell, so to speak,
and will before the end of the year
either arrange for a new company or
else confess judgment and allow the
five steamships of the company to be
sold for the benefit OF the bondhold-
ers.
The bonds outstanding amount to
$2,4O5,000 and bear 3 per cent inter-
est. In the past two or three years
they have had a bad slump and are
now quoted at 80 bid and 55 asked
The 26,559 shares of outstanding stock
have no market value. They are all
held in the Spreckels family and it is
understood the latter also holds at
least half the bonds.
The company is indebted to the
Spreckes family for an overdraft OF
$2,OOO,000. In case the Union Trust
Company as trustee for the bondhold-
ers, has to sell the five vessels owned
by the company it is said by those
who know that if the vessels bring at
auction the face value of the bonds
the holders of the latter can congratu-
late themselves. So there is every
prospect in case of a sale that the
Spreckels family will lose their over
draft and have the shares OF stock as
so much waste paper
Several months ago the company
abandoned the Australasian service
| and by the existing collapse of the cor.
poration the Spreckels family is Out
about $7,0OO,OOO and the general pub.
lie, which held some of the stock al
one time. and still holds some of the
bonds, about 100000. So it is con.
sidered the worst steamship failure il
the history of the Pacific coast ant
one of the worst in the country. PEG.
pie who invested in its stock anC
bonds and lost heavily ascribe the fail
ure to bad management while John d
| Spreckels, its president, insists tina
the company was never able to rail-!
from the repeated droughts that af
fected Australia for several years il
succession and which cut OF a profit

PUZZLE OLE HE SEA.

SAN DIEGO, Cal, June 22.-One OF
the puzzles of the sea came to the
surface yesterday when a gigantic sea
turtle was captured by julius Solissa,
a fisherman. The monster weighs l.
9O2 pounds and its shell is five feet two
inches from tip to tip On its back
is burned or carved this inscription:
British ship Sea Brine, August u,
1881, 3 south, Sc west. II found, please
notify Thomas Fletcher, Brawley
Road, Rivington, England"
1t would appear from this fact that
the turtle was captured tWenty-six
years age. in the south Pacific and that
he was released after the lettering had
been burned in its shell.
