SUGSTO BE RESUMED ROYAL MAII. lalXK AX 5f OUNCES SEVICI3 19 FORTHCOMING. Route to South America via Caaal M l 11 Be Opened. So Sooa as Gov- " erasaeat Releases Ships. Royal Mall line officials hav. not made known plans for a resumption of the Portland-Oriental-European serv ice as yet, nor of a line proposed from London through the canal to this coast, which waa under way previous to the war, but in a circular from the. New York office it ls stated the company will resume sailings to South American ports via the canal as soon as certain vessels' are released from ' the service of the British Admiralty. Tne statement was elicited as a re sult of a recent discussion at "Washing ton for th. United States Government to Inaugurate steamer service to South American ports. Concerning future plans, the circular says: The Roysl Mall Steam Packet Company snd the Pacific Steam Navigation Company have for the past 73 years been Ultimately associated with every phs.e of paaMnge.r and freight traffic to and from the eev.ral republics of South America and Just prior to the declaration of war the latter company announced the extension of Its service to New York via the Panama Csnal, which, unfortunately, aas postponed, ow ing to the European war, but la by no meane lo.t sight of. ''.',' As soon as the Psclflo Steam Navigation Company's steamers, which are now In th. British Government's employ, are available, the extension of their fortnightly service through the csnal to Mew York will be put Into effect. ' ... The fleet will consist of twin snd triple screw steamers up to 15.000 tons register., the largest typo each having high-class sc commodatlon for over 1000 passengers snd cargo capacity of 10.000 tons. The itinerary will be as follows: Service fortnightly Liverpool. French, Spanish and Portuguese ports, Atlantic Islands Braxilian. Uruguayan snd Argentine ports through Straits of Magellan, Chilean and Peruvian ports; through Panama Canal, Havana. New York, following the same itinerary In the reverse direction. In conjunction with the intermediate service already in operation from Cristobal through the canal to Ecuadorian. Colom bian, Peruvian snd Chilean ports, snd back to Cristobal, touching at" the same ports, the company's new service (besting in mind the fleet which msy be made available ag gregstes over 1,000.000 tons) it would seem would fill the desire for fact, modern stesm shlp connections between North and South America. The Royal Mall steam Pscket Company and the Pacific Steam Navigation Company will keep constantly In touch wltb the de mands of the traffic and, should It warrant, they will motease the serivces accordingly. Regular organised passenger snd freight line, are 'in th. service between Braxilian snd Argentine ports snd New York ao that with the advent of the new Pacific Stesm Navigation Company service. It would seem that prlvste enterprise with high-class steamship facilities should afford adequate service from New York to both the west and east coasts of South America and vice versa. .
