EARLIER TELEGRAMS,

DRAMA OF THE SEAN

Rodriguez, June 28. A story of the sea like a chapter of romance is fold by Captain Foster of the ill-fated steamer Travessa. He says that at mid- night on June 3rd, in a south-southwesterly gale, the ship hove to, making water rapidly, despite the pumps, taking moun tainous seas aboard and sinking fast by the head. He sent out an S.O.8, giving his position, and received replies from the Runic and two unknown vessels. He was unable to await further messages, and with the crew abandoned the ship, perfect discipline obtaining. The Trevessa foundered at 2.45 in the morning

Thereafter the ship's two boats kept together all night and the following day, awaiting assistance. They set sail at 5 o'clock, and an hour later the mast of one of them carried away. A heavy Bea was running. Next day, June 5th, the Captain decided to make for Mauritius, steering true in a strong and increasing wind and high seas until the evening of the 8th June, when he was again- compelled to lay to. The weather was dirty and the night very dark. The skipper's crew was unable to keep eight of the other Boat Very heavy thin fell, the compasses were useless, and they were obliged to steer by the stars, and during the day by the sun. He completely lost eight of the other boat on the 9th June and decided to make a course for Rodriguez, the nearest land, and send assistance back to her

Good progress was made until 15th June, when heavy weather. was encountered, the boat shipping much water. A lot of time was lost owing to accidents to the gear. The boat was driven out of her course on 24th June, but worked back and they sighted Rodriguez on the afternoon of 26th. The survivors landed in tha

Discipline was splendid throughout. The crew suffered con- alderably owing to shortage of water, one third of a cigarette tin of which was issued daily. The rations consisted of the lid of a cigarette tin full of condensed milk twice daily, and one biscuit. Two native fishermen died of exposure and were consigned to the sen. The remainder of the crew landed weak, but rapidly recover- ed with the attention, administered.

Hopes are entertained of the safety of the second boat, which was a lower craft.

THE SINGAPORE NAVAL BASE.

London, June 28,

In the House of Commons, replying to, Lieutenant Commander. Kenworthy, member for Central Hull, Mr. Amery said that the cost of the projected graving dock at Singapore was estimated at £1,000,000, and that the cost of a floating dock of the same size would be about the same. It was proposed, he said, to construct a graving dock capable of taking simultaneously two ships of the maximum size allowable under the Washington Agreement. → The total cost on navy votes during the next decade, of the "dockyard and naval base at Singapore, with all accessories was roughly estimated at $10,500,000. If any additional fortifications were required they would come on army votes, but he did not contemn- plate any such expenditure.
