Shipbuilding in Spain.
The Astilero Vea-Murguia, an abandoned shipbuilding, works Hying half a mile outside Cadiz, facing the bav, has recently been sold and is to be re-equipped. In this plant the Spanish cruisers Carles V. and Extremadura and one or two medium sized mer- obant vessels were built, but owing to lack of Government support and failure to compete with British and other foreign shipbuilders for merchant ship construction the concern failed and the establishment has been closed for about 20 year. The establishment, comprises a large extent of ground on the bay fronting the ses bound by a SOL wall facing the bay and acUST on the west side, with ac0858 thereto from the bay for ships to come alongside, a-shear lega made originally for lifting weights up to 100 tons, two building slips, and engineering and joiners' shops and offices. At various times negotiations have been entered into with s view to the purchase of the works, but all have fallen through until recently two Bilbao capitalists made offers for the place, and on April 12, the sale to them was concluded at a price somewhere between 1,300,000 and 1.400,000 pesetas. It is said to be the intention of the new proprietors to use the works at first for the construction frailway wagons and other rolling stock, but the plant is to be gradually enlarged and ultimately resort to its original purpose of shipbuilding and repairs. A large quant ty of new mchinery will undoubtedly be required in order to fit out the place for work of whatever kind,"
