The Alaska Steamship company’s
Nome liner Victoria "ill be placed on
the Alaskan coast run as soon as she
arrives at Seattle on her last trip
from Nome. The Victoria should he
in Seattle again early in November.
The information that comes from the
south is that she will sail for Cordova
and other coast towns about Novem
ber 10th to 15th.
How long the Victoria will be kept
on the Alaska coast run Is not stated,
but it is safe to say according to the
information received that she will con
tinue all winter if the ore tonnage
continues to be offered. Something,
of course, will depen dupon the length
of time that may be required to over
haul the recently purchased Kansas
City, and the time of the arrival of
the freight carriers Bennington and
Burlington.
The Victoria is the largest vessel
engaged in the Alaska trade at the
present time, and one of the fastest
While an old vessel, she is well built,
seaworthy and one of the fastest
American ships in the Alaska service.
Steamship men say that the Kansas
City will make a splendid addition to
the Alaska fleet. She is fast, has ex
cellent passenger accommodation and
is splendidly arranged to accommo
date passengers. Of recent years she
has been operated with the Rose City
on the route between San Francisco
and Portland.
It is tindrstood that the Kansas City
will be changed to an oil burner before
she will become an Alaska liner.
