FIRST P. N. BOAT
LEAVES EAST
TODAY

y Huge increases in the Oriental
trade are looked for among shipping
circles in the East, according to John
H. Ro5seter, vice-president and gen.
eral manager of the Pacific Mail
Company, who returned to San Fran
cisco last week from a five weeks
business stay in New York. =
Rosseter told OF the restoration Of
Pacific Mail service between San
Francisco and Oriental ports. The
steamer Ecuador, first of the three
vessels purchased a few months ago
from Dutch company in New York,
will leave New York for San Fran
cisco today, he announced. There
after 1t will run on regular schedule
between San Francisco and the Orient.
The other two boats are the Venezu-
ella and the Columbia. They will fol.
low a little later.
These vessels cost $4,000 900 and
are of 10000 tons burden each. Ac-
cording to Rosseter, they are first
class BOATS in every respect and are
admirably adapted for the Oriental
routes.
The Ecuador will be in command OF
Capt. Nelson, formerly of the Korea.
Engineer Paul. also formerly with the
Pacific Mail on this coast, will be in
charge of the engine room. ,.-

TERRIFIC FIGHTING ON
WESTERN FRONT

LONDON, Eng, July E.-Des-
patches from Sir Douglas Haig's head
quarters received here last night In
dictate that so far as the British sec
ton OF the Somme front was con-
eerned there was comparatively IT.
tie fighting. The Germans main
some of the British positions. =
Berlin, however, tells Of heavy Brit.
ish assaults that were driven back
with terrific loss. Four times in all
the British attack was launched and
each time ii broke down under the
tremendous machine gun and rifle fire
from the German positions in the sec
tor east of Orvillers. ~.
Nor were the Germans quiet all
along the Somme line Paris reports
that the Teutons, taking advantage of
thick fog that wrapped the trenches
in an opaque cloud, launched a series
of attacks against the positions held
by the French east of Biaches.
Taken completely by surprise. the
French were evicted at Biaches and
La Maisonette. But they reformed
speedily and throwing themselves
upon the assailants they drove them
out of both places again at the point
of the bayonet.
North of Chilly the Germans also
attacked in great masses and sue
ceeded in entering the first line
French trenches, adds the Paris re-
port, but here also, after some heavy
fighting, they were driven back, un.
able to hold what they had gained -
Berlin in the official account Of the.
fighting at Biaches makes no mention
of having been driven back by the
French, but says that in a desperate
assault launched by the French at the
Verdun front the Gallo troops sue
ceeded in entering the first line
trenches southeast of Thiaumant.
Official reports from Berlin and the
Russian capital speak Of the fightins
on the line between Lutsk and Kovel,
where the Russians are faced by the
stubborn German troops under Field
Marshal Won Linsingen. Here the
Slavs are said to have resumed the Of
fensive and to be delivering tremend-
Gus blows against the German line.
The reports give no definite indica.
ton of any material change at that
front, however.
After a pause of some months the
Grand Duke Nicholas began again to
move but recently and yesterday came
the news that HIS men, after a series
of attacks, had carried the important
town Of Baiburt by assault, storming
the place and driving the Turks out
at the point of the bayonet.@ -.
ConstantinopIe reported that Turk.
ish submarines In the Black Sea have
succeeded in torpedoing three Rus.
sian transports and driving a fourth
ashore. This is said to have taken
place on the eastern section of the,
sea. s-.8 b. .ssss.7S-. <. ..4..; =
The Italians are very active on their
front. Rome last night reported that
