Cruiser Stern Proves Popular.

The introduction of the arniser atera first adopted by the new Em press of Russia and Empress of Aas of the O.P.E, is proving popular. The following article appeared in the engineering supplement of the Times.

The

cruiser stern now bids fair to replace the overhanging counter, so long regarded as one of the most beautiful features of the modern liner. From the small projection of sailing, ship days, designed to afford more space around the rudder head and tiller, the overhanging of the counter has gradually increased to make room for steering gear honses and other requirements, and in large vessels may extend 20 feet to 30 feet beyond the water-line length. It is natural to inquire why ite supremaoy should be threatened by the newcomer, and what advantages can be shown in favour of the cruiser onding to to the eliptical stern: The first justify its adoption in preferonce

were the Canadian Pacific liners: large vessels to make the change Empresa of Russis and Empress of Asia, and favourable reports are being received as to their be haviour, upon their transpacific run of 4,300 miles. The Allan linera Alestian- aud Calgarian followed suit and are the first Atlantic liners to have the new form. The two new Canadian Pacifio vessela building on, the
