Shippers in general report tbe past week the dullest in so far ns'charters have been concerned. Where there usually is an excess of either supply or demand there have been only a few ships on the charter market and out little demand. The Merchants Ex change has reported few chatters all week, the one for the schooner Caroline by the MeCormick Lumber company being the only one of recent date. Coastwise ships are plentiful, mas ters coming from San Francisco, re porting that the harbor contains many coasters awaiting charter. The Pacific Steamship company, which will operate the lines between Portland, Alaska, Seattle and Hawaii, closed jfor the steam schooner Rochelle planning to place her on the run between Alaska and Seattle carrying coal day. "Tlie coming ! years will see the freighting done by fleets of steam vessels patterned after the lines which we will hav running to Hono lulu, Alaska and the south, and the big fleets of modeifn freighters which other companies aj-e planning to op erate through the canal to Pacific coast ports from Europe and the At lantic seaboard. 'j "Tlie canal is practically impossi ble of access to the sailing vessel be cause of the calms which exist for weeks at the western entrance to the waterway. VesselB have at times taken six weeks jr longer to make the western entranlce to Panama bay, and this uncertainty, together with the accessibility of the many Pacific coast ports to steamers. Will, I believe, take practically all their business away from them." j MARINE IXTKldLIGEXCE Du to Arrira.
