It I explained, however, that an oocaaional traniD may be engaged to assist the reeular. freichters. It ia thought that the charter of sail tng veaaela to transport oargoea to the United Kingdom will be a common oo- currehce from thla date forward.

While local representatives of the com pany suppose that the steamers will be oDerated between Waattle and 8an Fran claco. there is said to be a atrong proba bility that tbey will touch at roriiana on both the ud sad down . trips. Close relations always have been maintained between the Pacific Coast Steamship - company and the Great Northern rail road and the opinion prevails that James J. Hilt will have something to ao wnn the oDeration of the new vessels. He will need steamers to run from here to San Francisco as soon aa his north-bank railroad has been completed, and these will be available for the purpose. At present the Pacific Coust Bteam- itilp company has three steamers plying between Seattle and the Bay city the I'matilla. City - of Pueblo and Queen.
