SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 3. The
Kosmos line of steamers that is to con
nect Antwerp, Hamburg, London, and
South and Central American ports in
a monthly service will be a great boon
to this Coast. California dried fruits
and canned goods will go direct to a
European market, while English and
German products will come here near
ly three months quicker than they can
by sailing ships. Between Guatemala
and San Francisco alone the time will
be shortened from two to three days,
that is, if the steamers do not stop at
Gulf of California ports.
The Kosmos Company was formerly
one of the largest steamship owners in
Europe, but during the last year it has
sold fourteen of its oldest vessels. Now
none of the fleet is more than ten
years old, and all of them are 12-knot
ships or better. They are splendidly
fitted out for the first, second and
third-class passengers, and are light
ed throughout with electricity and all
modern improvements. All the steam
ers are thoroughly equipped for the
handling of freight.
It is not the intention of the com
pany to do any rate cutting in Central
American trade. There will be no
fight on those lines with the Pacific
Mail Company, but the rates to Colom
bo and South American ports will be
cut in two. This will give the mer
chants of San Francisco and the busi
ness men of the interior a chance to
build up a trade with the west coast of
South America, enabling them to hold
their own with New York and other.
Eastern points. At the present time
over 2,000 tons of merchandise is sent
out of New York to South American
ports via the Straits of Magellan.
The principal intention of the com
pany is to give a fast steamer service
from San Francisco and San Diego to
Havre, London, Antwerp and Ham
burg. Special inducements will be of
fered to shippers of canned goods and
dried fruits and quick dispatch will be
guaranteed. The coffee and sugar
crops of Central American ports will
be attended to, and once the Kosmos
line is in operation there will be no
such thine as coffee lying on the
wharves in Guatemala and Costa Rican
ports for five or six months awaiting
shipment.
The steamers of the new line will
dock at the Oceanic wharf and all sup
plies for their outward voyages will
be purchased here. Captain Howard,
the able superintendent of the Oceanic
Stpamshin ComDanv. will handle the
steamers, so they are sure to get good
dispatch and be well cared for. John
D. Spreckels & Bros. Company will be
the local agents for the new line.
If matters progress as well as is an
ticipated, the Kosmos Company will
nut a line of steamers, under the Ger
man flfltr. on the run between San
0
Francisco and the Orient. Leudal M.
Grav. eeneral agent of the Kosmos
line, leaves for Mexico on Saturday to
arrange matters in connection with
thP mi vent of the Tanis. the first
steamer of the line, at Mexican ports
next month.
PANAMA, Aug. 29 Advices from
Guatemala state that the agency of the
Kosmos line of steamers has made the
announcement here that the steamer
Tanis, leaving Hamburg on September
15, will inaugurate a service to ban
Francisco in competition with the Pa
cific Mail Steamship Company.

pany.oi uiympia, wasn., ana it is a
perfect illustration of the quality of
beer which we are always glad to com
mend, for the analysis showed it to be
entirely free from any trace of any
injurious substance. Such a high grade
of beer is most beneficial in its use, for
none of the pure malt and hops have
been displaced by harmful ingredients.
Every hygienist will concur with us in
saying that a beer of such superior
excellence is a very wholesome bever
age. Physicians often have occasion
to prescribe a pure beer for cases of
debilitation, and they can safely order
this beer, made by the Capital Brewing
Company.

This beer can be had in bottle or on

to sell you and give you value for the
benefit of your health.
