Second To None

The chairman in proposing success to the steamship "Duchess of York" and her owners, the Canadian Pacific, said if there was one bond atronger than another which binds the Canadian Pacific to John Brown and Company apart from their patriotic Instincts it was the motto "Second to none." (Hear, hear.) The Canadian, Pacific Company had shown themselves for in advance of every one of the Colonial enterprises John Brown and Company were ac- quainted with In their far-seeing energy and their forethought, not merely for the present; but for, the future. That great railroad across Canada, with which their name is associated, is known to them all. The vessels which constitute their graat Trans-Atlantic na, and their Pacific lines were world-famous, and he felt proud as chairman of John Brown and Company to think that they had been able to play up to their high ideas of what a great #teamship ought to be.

They had had opportunities for many years of supplying to Cans- dian Pacific Company with their tonnage requirements, and the

he hoped not for very long, of a series of great ships. Her predeces- sors were more than fulllng the contract conditions which were en- tered into in their actual sailings, both as regards fuel consumption and speed. In these days of contly fuel and expenses all round, the owners of a great steamship had to consider economies in all directions, and there was no direction in which economics were more eagerly sought; for than in the consumption of fuel.

Record in Fuel Economy

In regard to these last two 'ves- sels, the mean fuel consumption in several round voyages have fully confirmed the wonderful results which they obtained on their official trials. The performances of these two ships constitute an absolute record in fuel economy. He thought Captain Gillies, who really deserved all the credit for the design of the shin, would agree with him that this great stride in economy could really be termed epoch-making. He did. not want to take credit for what had been done, because it was their object to carry out the specifications
