Sir Joseph, spa aking of the great belief he held in the future of the Diesel engine, men- tioned the case of a vessel which recently went to the East and back on an oil consumption of 20 tons per day, as compared with 30 tons of coal per day. Mr. William Lewis has been appointed joint manager of the P. 8. N. Co. along with Mr. Alexander Dee.
LAYING-UP DIFFICULTIES. Steamship owners who have decided to lay up their steamers on arrival back in the United Kingdom from current voyages are meeting with an unforeseen difficulty in that Port Authorities, being already congested with idle tonnage, are disinclined to provide laying-up berths. Some owners, having tried without success to secure berths at Liverpool, Man- chester, Southampton, Glasgow and other convenient ports, have had to accept accommodation at Falmouth, Belfast and such re- latively out-of-the-way ports. With any increase in the amount of tonnage laid up in the United Kingdom, this difficulty will, of course, increase, and yet, in view of the condition of freight markets throughout the world, no other course seems open to owners than to lay up their ships.
FIVE-MASTED SAILING SHIP. There was a large crowd of spectators present in the yard of Ramage and Ferguson, Limited, Leith, when the five-masted Bail- ing ship Kobenhavn, bailt to the order of the East Asiatic Com- pany, Limited, Copenhagen, took the water recently. The Kobeh havn is the largest sailing ship built on the east coast, and is one
• Lof
the largest in the world. It is unique in being the first to be fitted with an auxiliary Diesel Copenhagen by Burmeister and motor engine, constructed in Wain, and capable of indicating over 600 horse power. The. principal dimensione of the ship are:-Length, 390 feet over all, by 49 feet beam, and 28 foot 7 inches depth moulded; while the dead-weight carried is over 500- tons. The vassoi has been built ander Lloyds' special survey for 100 AI class, also in accordanos with Danish law requirements. As regards the model, it is of very fine lines with a view to a high speed under canvas being attained. Besides being built for commercial purposes, it is intend- ed that the Kobenhavn is fo be used as a training ship for officers. Ample accommodation for cadets or apprantices has been arranged in a separate house on deck. An interesting feature of the vessel is the masts and sail. The five lofty steel masts, each weighing about 29 tons, with their long steel yards, the lower ones being 90 feet long. recall the clipper ship days. The sails are made of American cotton, with a total area of over 56,000 square feet, a double suit being provided. Brace and halliard winohes are provided for handling the yards and saile; and various labour-saving devices have been fitted to facilitate the handling of the ship,
