New American Shipyard. San Francisco, June 22-A big Pacifio port shipyard has started an extension costing more than twenty million dollars. It covers 158 acres and provides tan berths: for building, stoel ships each of twenty thousand tons. This giant plant is named the Liberty shipyard. Wooden ships, of which scores have been built and are building along the Pacific coast, it is now claimed, are virtually unsinkable. One such ship was torpedoed twice, once directly under the engine room. but reached port.

Two Steamers Salved. The salvage operations to raise the 8.s. Riutakusan Maru, groza tonnage 1.65 tons, owned by Mi Kudo Kaiohiro of Hakodate, which caught fire while off Era Machi, Oshima Province, Hakkaido and sank. have been completed by the Matsushima Maru, one of the salvaga boats of the Nippon Kaji Kozio Kaisha, Osaka, and the sunken veasel was successfuly raised on the 15th ultimo. The vessel was taken to Hakodate for repairs on the 17th. The 8.8. Masaki Maru (1,229 tons) of the Kusakabe Gomei Kaisha, which stranded at Rinchi Point near the Daidoko, Chosen, was also refloated, and under the escort of the Sakigake Maru, No. 2 of the same salvage company, safely arrived at Osaka at 2 p.m. on the 37th, Repairs, are to be done at Kobe shortly, says the "Kobe Herald."

Changed Terms of Buying and Selilog Ships.

The shipping market in Japan is now in an uncertain condition, -in other words, shipping men have no clear idez as to whether the shipping market will become active or depressed. This state cf affairs shows itself in the abaormal terms on which ships are now bought and sold. The "Japan Chronicle" reports that recently the Kuhara Company. bought the Fukuura Maru sad a few other steamers on condition that these steamers should be sold back to the original owners though at what price was not made known. This is practically a charter transaction. Another unusual transaction is the sale of a newly-built steamer of 3,500 tons from the Mitsui Bussan Kaisha to the Towa Kiren Kaisha. The price of the vessel is reported to be Y.550 a ton-a rather high price on the face of its; but it is by no means high when it is learned that the seller is to pay Y.36 per ton per month as " charter money" to the buyer for the next twelve months. Why this sum is not deducted from the price instead of making it appear that the ship has been sold at a record figure it is not easy to understand-unless, indeed, it îa designed to send up the value of tonnage. The Mikami Shokai has bought the Shosho Mara III. » and the Rokizan Maru (formerly the Shosho Maru VII), botb vessels of 2,030 tons, from the Shosho Yoko, ostensibly at Y,680. It is stated, however, that the actual price is Y.600, and the buyer is bound by agreement to give two-thirds of the profit that may be realised by reselling the steamer.
