Honolulu, Nov. 7.

THE Oceanic and Oriental Navigation * Co., which for long has served South Pacific Islands, including Australian and New Guinea ports, with well-known freighters, has been dissolved. The ves sels have been equally distributed be tween the Matson Line and its subsidi ary, the American-Hawaiian Line.

Matson received the Golden Dragon, Golden Cloud, Golden Cross, Golden Sun, Golden Mountain, and Golden Horn.

American-Hawaiian has the Golden West, Golden Coast, Golden Hind, Golden Tide, Golden Star, and Golden Peak. It is understood that the vessels will continue without radical changes in their schedules.
