SHIPPING NEWS.
A Successful Steamship Company. In the Chancery Division, Mr. Justice Peterson made an order sanctioning the reduction of the capital of Peckett's Bristol Channel Steam Packet Company, Ltd.. by the return of nearly half the capital to the shareholders, To Sall.
Mr. Manning (instructed by ...... 9th July at noon. Messrs. Woodcock, Rylands, and 11th July at 3 pm. Parker. acents for Messrs. Ed- 12th July at 3 p.m..ward Gerrish, Hariis and Co., ....18th July at 3 p.m.
of Bristol) appeared for the company, and there was no opposition. Mr. Manning said his lordship would remember this was a case of a company which bad participated in the good fortune, attending steamship companies in these days. The company was incorporated in January, 1892, and issued 845 ordinary and 461 preference ahares of £10 each: It was now in a position to return about half of its issued capital, and proposed to repay all the preference agaros, and to pay off £3 for each ordinary shares making the laster £7 aach. It was also pro- posed to cancel all the unissued ospital. When the matter was last before his lordship an' ad- journment was made for the production of the balanos-sheet of the company, and an affidavit supporting the allegation in the petition that the capital was in excess of the company's needs. Flis He now produced both. Lordship made the usual order, the words "and reduced " tösbe used for a month.

Shipbuilding Activity at Home.
Ship repairing throughout the South Wales ports has been active, says the Journal of Commerce." and a number of heavy jobs have been completed much under the time which the work was originally estimated to take. Nevertheless there "have" been a number of cases which are most irritating to the pro- pristory, whereby workmen are keeping bad time. The practice in
the Bristol Channel is fortunately not general, but in the endeavour of the management to complete vessels as quickly as possible the sincere co-operat ion of "the" wärkmen is desired. As pointed out in the House of Commons recently, men of military age in shipbuilding yards
and ship-repairing yards, of course, are included in this general term-who consistently keep bad time are liable to have their exemptions withdrawn. It |is_hoped that this will have the
effect of making each man's › maximum amount of energy being yielded, for it has been laid down that the repairing of steamships is quite as important asthe construction of new vessels. The recent visit of the represent- atives of the Engineering and and Shipbuilding Federation to Beachley was followed by a report to the federation executive, which bore witness to the facilities the site afforded and the activities of military and German prisoner labour in excavation work and railway construction. Nevertheless there are many who are convinced that under private enterprise „much more would have been accom plished. It is still questioned by experte whether it was a wise plan to have selected Beachley at all, but apparently the object of the authorities, was to secure a suitable site as near to the nucleus Chepstow as WES possible. Adjoining the National- Yard at Chepstow is the ship- building site of Finch's, where a number of iron and steel steamers have been turned out of a type which "weathered continual and hard usage for years. This concern has turned out a standard type, and whilst attention has been concenrated on the Nation,

to the belief that important developments are under consider- ation: The recent visit of Government officials and the fact becoming known that the books of the firm have been brought up to date and taken to London, has been responsible for the ides that the yard is to be taken ovaz by the Government. Theemployees have been, naturally, keen to know whether there was any truth in the report that the yard might be taken over by the Government authorities, but the management were unable to confirm or deny. the report. In the past this company has built some iron and steel steamers which have been remarkable. for their endurance, Amongst the steamers, built by this firm are the Marchioness, the White Rose, the Storm Cook the Earl Forester, Somorrostro X(1,815 tons), Dovre, Balldog
