Sprockcls, of San Francisco, came to an an agreement whereby a passenger and cargo route from Wellington to San Francisco, via Tahiti, was opened on trial.

The results havo been highly encouraging and the service is to be indefinitely continued. The Mokoia leaves Wellington on- her next trip on September 16, and her passengers and cargo will, be transhipped to the Mariposa at Tahiti. An early arrival in port this morning will be the U.S.S.
