Syria furnishes the finest quality of sponges, and shipments are made from Tripoli and Latakia to Paris, London. Trieste, Hamburg, New York and Piraeus. During the last fifteen years, however, the output has greatly dimin- ished. owing to the introduction by Greeks of diving apparatus, which proved ruinous to fishermen and fisher ies alike. It is estimated that the an- nual exportation of Syrian sponges at present hardly exceeds $S5,000 in value. In the adjoining territorial waters of Cy- prus sponge beds are being worked with varying success. Sponges were export ed from that island in 1898 to the amount os $10.425. and in 1899 $2s, 1855 worth were shipped. Egypt, Barbary, Crete, Rhodes. Samos, Calymnos and other islands of the Turkish and Greek archipelagoes also produce sponges for export. A large share of this trade was formerly in the hands of merchants with headquarters in Smyrna and Trieste. but it is now centered in Lon- don and Piraeus.The United States an- nually buys sponges abroad to the amount of about $500,000

Next week the largest and perhaps the fastest steamship in the world will be launched at Stettin. Germany, the Kaiser Wilhelm IT., which is seven hundred and seven feet in length, or three feet longer than the Oceanic. The figures given of her dimensions show that she is designed for speed rather than as a cargo ship, for she is not as capacious as the Oceanic, at least in some measurements. while her horse power is thirty-nine thousand, against twenty-seven thousand for that ship and thirty-seven thousand five hundred for the Deutschland. at present the sWiftest steamship in commission.
