SHIPPING NEWS.
Salvage.
The shortage of shipping has given an impetus to the a divage enterprise, 8278 the "Daily
Chonicle" After the war there is likely to be great activity in the raising and reflating of sunken ships around our coasts, but at present operations are "confined to waters outside the war zone. Several vessels have recently been reflosted in South American waters, the latest instance” being that of a Hamburg liner sunk off the coast of Guat-mals ten years ago. After being repaired in the dry dock at Panama the vessels is expected to realise £200,000— far more that she originally, cost.
Fighting the Submarine. Referring to German sub- marines, the writer of a Lon- doner's Diary in the "Evening Standard" says :-Whether any- thing has gone wrong with the supply ships, or whether the Fun crewa dialke their task, the fact remains there have been sur renders. I understand; too, that the men on our destroyers are: elated with the results of a certain new method of fighting the submarine. The great difficul- ty of detecting the presence of a submarine has been met with considerable success. lt is, as Sir John Jelicoe hinted: only a matter of time before the newest devices operate with cumulativa effect.
Nanking Shipping.
The total number and tonnage of vessels which entered and cleared at Nankinz during the quarter ended in December 1915 was 1,832 vessels of 1,819,680 tons, which compared with the same quarter in 1915 showed a decrease of 2 vessels and 139,798 tons. Of the total 1,020 vessels of 1,755,456 tons were river steamers, showing a decrease of 36 steamers and 134,672 tons, and 18 steamers of 32,816, tons were ocean steamers, a decre se in this instance of 11,798 tous The percentages of the different flags in the total were '46.8 British, 28.0 Japanese, 24-4 Chinese and 1.0 American, Italian and Nor- wegian.
Of the river steamers
the percentages were 46.6 British, 28.5 Japanese, 244 Chinese, and 0.5 Americas, and of the ocean steamers 7.6 British, 2.21 Ja- panese and 6.2 Norwegian.
The Wallace Shipyards. The Willac Shipyards, Ltd, recently declared their willing- nes to undertake work for British firm, stating that they were prepared to accept contracts for steamers offrəm7,500 to 8,830 be built tons deadweight to according to buyers' specific- ations. The company further agree to deliver a vessel of this type in September, and thence- forward at the rats of one a month. It will be rem mbered that attention was called last autumn to the fact that Canadian shipyards were but ding tonnage for Scandinavian owners. The Wallace Shipyards, Ltd, were under contract to build five large steamers for Norway, but it was stated that the contracts had been offered first to British firing, but had been refusɔd by then on account of the hig price and long delivers. The advisability of entering into contracts with British firms is now being advocated in Cana fa.-Exchange,
Shanghai Freight.
The fortnightly freight market report of Wheelock & Co., dated Shanghai, Mar 10, states:-The congestionofcargo both to Europe and America continues arid is, if anythin, getting more marked, whilst tonnage seems to be getting scarcer every day; at the same tima freights are hardening and the Trans-Pacific Freight Bureau announces & further rise from
