One of the outcomes of the present war will be further proofe of the benefits to be derived by the adoption of oil engines of the Diesel and semi-Diesel' class for the osasting and ocean going craft for which the trade to the Far East, on account of the facilities for replenishing the oil bunkers along the route appears to offer special inducements that have led to the Glen Line, following the | lead of the East Asiatic Company, in placing motor ships on the run to China. The shipping news fre- quently mentions that certain motor vessels arrived in port, re-
were ready to proceed to sea again in a few hours. Such a perform- ance (says *Shipping and Engineering") is quits impossible when bunkering with coal, as not only does one ton of coal taks longer to put aboard than a similiar quantity of oil, but

An- other, and far more important; point in favour of the oil engine, is that the radius in a vessel so driven is considerably greater than if steam engines were adopted. A good example of this
