PHONES TO SHIPS:
The Japan Department of Come munications has decided to make Lexperiments in Kobe with connecting
wireless messages from the 'steamers- In or near the harbour with ordinary telephone communication. For this pirpose the construction of a pole with apparatus for receiving etheric waves has been commended in front of the Kobe Central Telegraph-Office. This pole will be 150 feet high and the apparatus will make it possible to communicate through wireless re- ceivers on board steamers with ordinary telephones, on land. The experiments will not be started until April, and will be continued for one, year. If the results are 'satisfactory, a public service on this-line will be inaugurated. The existence of this service will form a peg on which will be hung essays on astonishing efficiency."

paratively little damage to the mast, but affected the compass somewhat, necessitating a short stoppage. The arrived, at Penang about two and a vessel resumed her voyage and

A STEAMER IS NOT A TEAMP.
1
Sir Walter Runciman, the vetera head of the Moor Line of cargo steamships, protests against the ap pélation of tramp" and would have. this class of vessel referred to as "cargo,steamer." Not long ago in then Syren and Shipping, London, Sir Walter undertook to explain the origin of the term tramp" as applied to steamers. It was, he said, when the poor tramp" owner presumed to contest the monopoly of the lordly: liners in the North Atlantic trade that a slapdasher of the American frontier was discovered who languide ly performed a feat which was destined to live, a pompous stupidity. He pinched a portion of the title of Mark Twain's book "A Tramp Abroad." and this silly, cynical styles. of mocking has been preserved superior circles.ever since, as quite a comic ducal invention which accur ately conveys the idea of nautical mediocrity."
SAILORS' HOURS.
The Imperial Merchant Service...... Guild has sent the following letter to the Research Board which, has been appointed to consider the relation of t hours and conditions of labour to the As-repre production of fatigue: senting over 15,000 officers of the -. Merchant Service, we observe that your board will be glad to receive: suggestions in respect to the relation of hours of labour and other condi tions of employment to the produc tion of fatigue. We venture, there fore, to suggest that the Beard could- turn their attention very profitably': to the hours of labour in the Mer chant Service. Some time ago, the general manager of the Shipping Federation, representing the ship-.. owners of this country, in the course of an official communication to the Board of Trade respecting Sunday labour in the Merchant Service stated, that the maritime wage is well under- stood to cover a seven days' week. Whilst this is the position at the present time, it may be stated that in the great majority of cargo-carry- ing vessels, two officers only are carried, in addition to the captain, and these officers labour under what is known as the 'two-watch' system. In other words, this means four hours on and four hours off duty. As cer-- tain duties require to be performed in an officer's watch below. It fol lows that, roughly speaking, his work extends to 14 15 hours a day, Saturdays and Sundays included. To make matters worse, it is impossible to obtain what is essential to health, that is, seven or eight con secutive hours sleep per diem. The most that these officers can obtain under the circumstances is from. three" to three and a half hours. That such a physical burden should be imposed upon the officers of mer- chant ships, who have to undertake such very serious responsibilities, and whose duties are most arduous,, is a matter requiring we submit, the urgent attention of your Board, who we trust will be pleased, after making due inquiry, to make strong recom- mendations on the matter.?
