That vancouver, Is. u, mas not Ohly
left San Francisco long way behind
as far as shipping is concerned, but
that the shipping industry between the
former port and the Orient is just on
big boom is the report brought
down this morning by one of the Off
GERS Of the Pacific Mail steamer Persia
that arrived from San Francisco
"You will see more shipping in Van
couver in one day." he said, than you
will in San Francisco in a week.
Things are going there with a boom.
The Canadian Pacific line has just or
dered two liners that are to be called
the Empress Of Russia and the EN-
press of Asia. They will be $4,000 tons
each and will be placed in commission
within a year.
THE Grand Trunk Pacific has plac-
ed orders for six mammoth vessels
that are to be the last word in float
ing palaces. These will also take up
the running between Prince Rupert
and the Orient.
Each of them will be between o.
600 and $4,000 tons and no expense
is to be spared in the building. They
will not be placed in commission un-
I'll the new trans-continental line is
finished"
This news following that as to the
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES line having three
new steamers coming on the run be-
tween Vancouver and Sydney, two of
which will be 1880 tons, means big
things ahead for the British Colum.

Recent files from Australia show
that the Manganui, the steamer that is
to take the place of the Zealandia,
put 416 miles behind her on the run
from Auckland to Sydney recently.
PERSIA FROM COAST.
Bringing eleven passengers for Ho-
nolulu and 1913 through, the Pacific
Mail steamer Persia arrived off port
early this morning from San Fran
cisco and berthed at Bishops wharf
at 8 o'clock. The trip from the Coast
port was without incident. She has
2959 tons of general cargo for the
Orient.
She brought a few sacks of first
class mail from the Coast, which was
distributed this morning.
The immigration officials of San
Francisco were not quite satisfied
with the status of Mrs. Guam Shung
Suey, and therefore ordered her to be
deported. Contrary to the usual Gus
tom, she came first class, accom-
panied by her husband. The man is
well known in San Francisco and is
one of the old-time Chinese there,
having made the trip across several
times during his residence in the
Coast city. This is one of the few
instances in which deported person
has come across first class.
Purser L. Mcpherson stated this
morning that the run was the finest
he had ever made anywhere.
The following are the stopover
passengers by the Persia from San
Francisco today:
Coe Mizuno, Nobe Mizuno, Mrs.
Nobe Mizuno and infant, Miss Ennie
Mizuno, Master Shire Mizuno, Master
Echie Mizuno, Master Eddi Mizuno
Miss Inez Mizuno, Miss Alpha Mizuno,
Miss Myrtle Mizuno.
