miles and the other 1896, distance OF IL
miles; but the Great Western retained a
view of her competitors smoke, which was
to windward for "a hours longer, and lost
sight of it when 80 miles ahead. On the
Outward voyage, the British Queen compile
ted the distance in Is hours less than the

| similarity of speed is remarkably co-inc-
dent between these splendid vessels.
