They will carry 950 tons oil fuel in the fore: and aft peaks and double hottoms, and on an estimated consumption of seven tona' a day they will be able to make a vog age extending over 180 days with out taking in fresh fuel. In comparison with a steamship of the same size using coal as fuel the cargo space will be 300,000 cu. ft. against 230,000 on. ft. Plans are being matured for the construction of a number of large passenger oil engine ships varying in tonnage up to 15,000 und in speed from 15 to 25 knots, and it is not unlikely that they will be placed in the Atlan- tic, Pacific, and Indian services." It is believed that the experiende which has been gained with high-power oil engines in a Ger man warship has made it possible. to employ oil engines of the two- oyole doubt-acting type for an in stallation of 20,000 h.p. driving triple or quadruple screws. No difficulty is anticipated in con nexion with the supply of oil fuel. Sir Fortescue Flannery is soting' as consulting engineer. South African Merchants and Shipowners..
