Unlikorecent instances of heavy losses, the Morida is not the highest valued vessel in the floot but she is valued at noarly £200,000, of which, says tho "Times," about £170,000 is in- surod in London with the com- panies and with underwriters n Lloyd's, while London companies with Now York office are also interested to a considerable ex- toni in the remaining sum placod in the United States. The Merida was a fine steamer of 1,207 tons built in 1806 at Philadelphia and owned by the New York and Cuba Mail Steamship Company. She was equipped with refrigerating machinery and wireless tole- graphy apparatus, and was cap- able of steaming 17 kunts.
