Regularity Of Ocean NAH service.

The records Of the postofi1ce departmsr,
show remarkable regularity In the arriv

ships are almost as prompt and a. reguias
In their service as the railways, and Ii T.
doubtful whether any railway COMPANY
could send Its trains the same distance day
after day and month after month without
losing more time For example. the LucanIs
did not vary more than three hours In IN
eleven voyages made last year. the longest
time occupied in the transportation Of a.
the postotiice in New York being. l6S hour.
and the shortest 1GO hours. The averarc
time was 10l hours and ffty-four miuutes
The Fuerst bismarck Of the Hamburg nm
varied only four hours and ten minuteS ~
longest voyage being ia hours and thirfv
minutes. the shortest 40 hours and tWentv
minutes. and the average 173 hours an6
thlrty-hye minutes.
The Tentonic varied five hours and thirty.
being lis hours and forty minutes. the shoFt.
est 1i3 hours and six minutes. and the aver.
age 175 hours and forty-hve minutes. Tha
New York of the American line varied ~
hours and uinute In fifteen trips the
longest being ISL hours and seven minuteS
the shortest 155 hours and six minutes and
the average 177 hours and fifty minutes
This time also included the handling Of

United States to Great britain, and S75 ri
pounds dispatched to Germany. Also a sin.
though the weight dispatched from the Other
