Withdrawn from the Alaska serv- ice of the Pacific Steamship Com- , pany the Steamship Admiral Evans, is to sail for San Francisco, from this port Tuesday at noon. This vessel is to take the regular schedule of the steamship Admiral Farragut between Seattle and San Diego, as the latter vessel has been withdrawn to enter the Mexican and Central American Coast service. of the Admiral Line.
 The Admiral Farragut is now at San Francisco, undergoing an over : hauling, and after that will be put in the Mexican Coast service, replacing the steamship Curacaso, which has been taken, off that route to operate between Portland and San Francisco : with calls at Coos Bay and Eureka. .. Capt M.> M. Jensen will remain in command of the Admiral Evans, and is quite familiar with California waters, as he formerly commanded the steamship Admiral Farragut on that route. Capt. Charles Borg, at present commander. of the steamship Admiral Farragut, probably will ex- change berths with the master of the Curacao, as themaster of the Curacao iS familiar with Mexican waters.
 . This will be the first visit of the ..AdmiEal Evans to California waters , ia six years. She has been operating exclusively in the Alaska service since 1914. ....
