STEAM BOAT PROGRESS.
Speed Has Increased From So Knots
to 221a

The address of Sir William White
before the British Association at Dover
is an excellent summary of the pro-
gress made in ocean steamship con-
struction. In 1910, the side-Wheel ship
Britannia of the Cunard Line, 207 feet
long, $50 horsepower, maintained sea
speed of about 81 knots on coal con-
sumption of 40 tons day. Speed has
been increased from S1a to 221a knots
and the time of the voyage reduced to
about 3S per cent of what it was in 1910.
Steamers have more than trebled in
length, about doubled in breadth, and
increased ten fold in displacement. The
engine power has been made forty
times as great. The ratio of horse
power to the weight carried has in
creased fourfold. The rate of coal con-
sumption measured by horsepower per
hour is now only third of what it
was in 1910. In 1871, the White Star
liner Oceanic, 420 feet long, 1900 tons
displacement, with engines of 5000
horsepower, had a speed of 141a knots.
In 1889 the Teutonic, of the same line,
was built, having length of 565 feet,
10000 tons displacement, 1900 indi-
Gated horsepower, 20 knots speed, and
coal consumption of 300 tons day;
then followed, in 1894, the Cunarder
Campania, 600 feet long, 10000 tons dis
placement, $4,000 horsepower, a full
speed of % knots, coal consumption 500
tons a day; and in 1899 the new Ocea-
mic of the White Star Line, 6S5 feet,
$4,000 TONS and a speed of about %
knots. The Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse
of the North German Lloyd Line, is
625 feet long and has maintained
speed of 221s knots. A larger steamer
is now building, the Deutschland, $50
feet, $4,000 tons, $4,000 horsepower, with
an estimated speed of 231h knots.
Sir William White is confident that
the maximum of size and speed has not
been reached, and says that increase
in length and weight favors the better
maintenance of speed at sea. The
tendency, therefore, will be to even
greater regularity of service than at
present. Quicker passages will to
some extent diminish risks"
The Kaiser Friedrich, which was one
of two vessels built by the North Ger
man Lloyd for their new fast line. has
been rejected on account of not coming
up to contract requirements as to speed
she was built by Schichau, of Elbing
the yacht and torpedo-boat builder
and was to have been half a knot faster
than the Kaiser Wilhelm der Crosse
she is 500 feet long, with engines of
10000 horsepower. This fine shin has
been taken over by the Hamburg
American Line-the largest fleet now
IN the woodland is in their New
York service.

THE MNEAR REPAIRED.

The first sailing vessel on the Pacific
Coast to be ordered to make repairs as
a result of the recent Treasury order
compelling such vessels to be regularly
inspected, was the bark McNear, which
arrived last month at Tacoma from
Honolulu. After being inspected the
McNear was ordered to the dry dock
for repairs For several seasons the Nc
Near has been plying between Coast
ports and the Hawaiian Islands. The
waters of the semi tropical Pacific
ocean TEEN with sea life which at
taches itself to vessels bottoms and are
hard on ships. After inspection it was
decided that the McNear should dry
dock be stripped calked resheathed and
the decks be repaired and calked. After
these repairs the McNear will be prac-
tically as good as new. She will then
load coal for Honolulu.

A NEW STEEL BARKENTINE.
To be Named After One of the Hawai-
ian Islands.

A steel four masted barkentine, rig
ged like the wrecked William Carson,
is being built on the Clyde for Pacific
trade and will leave Glasgow with d
general cargo for Honolulu as soon as
she is completed. She is to be named
after one of the Hawaiian Islands. The
vessel is being constructed for the firm
of Hind, Rolph & Company of San
Francisco. She is to leave Glasgow next
May. The entire vessel will be of steel,
save the onward and after houses. She
will be 2O6 feet long and will carry 1900
long tons. The new vessel will be a per-
feet sailing vessel in every respect, ac-
cording to the latest modern ideas.
The barkentine was to have been
built on the Pacific Coast, but all the
shipbuilders there are so busy that
it was found impossible to make a con-
tract within a reasonable time limit. A
number of other COM, acts have there
fore gone to the old world.
