STEAMER VICTORY TO BE GIVEN A TRIAL.
      The big steamer VICTORY will be given a trial trip Saturday and will start out that evening for her first cargo. While it is not definately decided as yet, it is thought she will go to Escanaba for ore for South Chicago, and in that event she will carry 6,000 tons, as there is no limit of water between those points. Her work will be watched with interest by all vesselmen.
