Unique Design.

Already, after her tests prior to sailing for America, British yachts men began studying her hull and. keel designs with a view to modify ing present models if the Shamrock justifies thd hopes which she raised in her preliminaries. The Shamrock represents the culmination of years of planning and workmanship by Mr. Charles Nicholson, her de- signer, and is the only one of her class in British yachting circles.

The Story of Shamrocks. The following is a brief record of Sir Thomas Lipton's efforts to lift the America Cup:

Shamrock I, built 1899 Met American defender Columbia, which won three straight races" somewhat easily,"

".

River traffic was held up and there were exciting scenes while the crew of the burning ship and the fire brigade were fighting the flames.

When the fire had been subdued the damaged Camillo was towed by tugs into Hamburg docke. She had unloaded a cargo of petrol at the port and was leaving in ballast for Liverpool when the explosions occurred.

The Camillo (5,135 tons) is owned by the Bear Creek Oil and Ship- ping Company (C. T. Bowring & Co, London, managers), and is registered, at Liverpool. She was built at Newcastle-on-Tyne.
