Steamship Hampstead Loading
Solid Cargo of Lumber of In
terest to Seamen.
The British steamship Queen WI
helmina, Capt. Husband, is still moored
alongside the steamship Dunster at the
Atlantic Coast Line wharf awaiting an
opportunity to be berthed to take on
her phosphate rock which will be part
of her cargo.
The Queen Wilhelmina is a steel YES
sci of 2,3O7 tons net registry. She was
built in 1898 by James Laing at Dept
ford yards, Sunderland. She belongs
to fleet of vessels known as the Nep-
tune Line, owned by Pinckney & Co.
of Sunderland. This fleet is composed
of about nine steamers that ply regu-
larly between Rotterdam and Balti-
more.
The Queen Wilhelmina is one of the
finest equipped steamers now in this
port. She is fitted throughout with
electric lights from Sunderland
forge electric engine. She has also a
patent American steam regulator,
which regulates the speed of the ship
when rolling and pitching in heavy
weather. The cabin and apartments
for the officers are fitted up with every
convenience, and there are excellent
accommodations for several first-class
passengers The captains apartments
n Hr1ic n6 fool
and other hard woods. A large pic
ture of both the King and Queen of
Holland are suspended from the walls.
Capt. Husband has been to SaVan-
nah several times before, but in other
steamers. He is we'll and favOra bly,
known here. The Queen Wilhelmina
will take on, besides rock, a quantity
of oil and lumber.
Progress is being made in loading the
big steamship Hampstead at the Geor-
gia Lumber Company's wharves, foot
of Bull street. AS previously stated the
Hampstead is taking on about 100000
feet of lumber for Montreal. This will
be one of the largest cargoeS of yellow
pine lumber to go out of Savannah
recently.
AS the demand continues wholesome
much interest is being aroused in the
lumber market. 1t is expected that
the summer will witness the largest
exports in recent years, judging from
the present prospects for a continued
good demand. Exporters are inquiring
daily of dealers for supplies. Both the
domestic and foreign demands keep up
we'll.
The dredging work above town is be-
ing pushed along satisfactorily.
