The City of Portland is now loading at Puget Sound for Australia, through the agency of the America Trading Company, She will go direct to Port Pirie, taking 2,00,000 feet of timber for the Broken Hill Proprietary Co. After discharging she is to come to Sydney, and will touch at other Australian ports. Her four first voyages will be t› Australia. The new ship has been registered under the United States flag, and classed Lil for eleven years. This class fiction proves that the type of construction employed on the City of Portland is looked upor with favour by the surveyors for the underwriters. The keel was laid on September 3, 1915, and six months actual working time wers consumed in the con- structing of the vessel, the launching taking place seven months after the keel was set. lost dur no month was ing the "silver thaw" that elim tic phenomenon which para- |lysed the north-west of America
