Launch And Junk Collide... The master of a trading junk re- ported to the Harbour Authorities Wednesday evening at that on about 3 p.m., his craft was struck at Blake Pier by the steam launch Thittle, belonging to Messrs Jar dine, Matheson & Co. Ltd

The Blue Funnel "stcamer,“ The Conical white buoy to the Pyrrhus, arrived in Singapore on eastward of the Proserpine Rocks Saturday, December 24th, after a has been replaced in its chartered position and the cylindrical buoy somewhat adventurous voyage.

Leaving Birkenhead on Novem-has been withdrawn. ber 8th, she encountered severe weather during the journey down to the Mediterraneat, having to heave to for eight hours on one night and losing a day on her schedule by the time she passed Gibraltar. Several days later slight damage was occasioned owing to a burst pipe flooding her storeroon, and then, early on the morning of November 16th, when about 28 males from Port Said, she broke her prankshaft. Wireless messages for Assistance brought out the Blue Funnel vessel Telamon later in the day and the Pyrrhus was towed to the real-water at Port Said, tugs the next morning taking her into

port.

"week's stay at Alter nearly Port Said the seven passengers aboard the Pyrrhus were transfer red to the Blue Funnel passenger Euer Antenor, on which vessel they continued their voyage to the Far East.

Meanwhile the Irion brought out a new crankshaft for the 'yrrha, which left Part Said on Docender 4th after an enforced stay of seven teen days in that port.

The Pyrrhus, which is doing the "New York rum" this trip, left Singapore for Hong Kong on Mon- day, December 28th.

Is appeared from the report that the launch was backing out with her stern from Blake pier, and as ahe was about two hundred yards away, the junk came into sight. Immediately the Thistle coxswain signalled down to the engine room to stop, but through some fault of the engines, it did not. launch, not being able to check her way, was unable to avoid striking the junk with her stern, doing slight damage.
