"Some Shipping Profits.
While the year's wo King, with regard to ordinary cargo steamers, (enye "Fairplay,)" has been ex- ceptionally good, the results of the working of oil tank steamers have been phenomenal. Some owners have been so unfortunate in their view of the future as to fix their steamara over a number of years at from 128, to 15s, a ton. Those owners who were fortunate enough to have their boats unfixed have been able to secure profits which are more than suficient to pay them 100 per cent, on the year's working.
