CLOSING THE PORT OF BAToUM.
ltussia's Action Not Violation of the
Berlin Treaty.

1t is officially stated at ST. Petersburg, that
the closing Of the port OF Batoum does
not constitute violation of the Berlin
treaty. Batoum was made free port
under the influence of circumstances
which have entirely changed. Since the alb
clifton of Caucasian transit, Batoum has
ceased to be an entrepot for foreign goods
between Europe and Persia, and has only
retained the import trade. Therefore.
ternal interests no longer induce Russia to
continue to make sacrifices to the detriment
of the country around Batoum.

For some time the photographic
Office has been collecting and publishing
information about the use of oil upon
waves at sea. Reports furnished by
Captains from all parts of the world have
been printed on the monthly pilot charts,
and at the end Of the last calendar year
the reports for twelve months were
issued in pamphlet. The dissemina-
ton of the facts narrated by these OBJ
servers appears to have convinced many
mariners that lives and property can be
saved by the use of few cents worth
of oil, for in some of the South street
ship chambers stores oil especially pre-
pared for use in gales il now advertised
and sold, and the dealers say that it has
become "the fashion" to carry oil on
board ship, and to use it when vessels
are threatened by heavy seas.
