When the British steamship Oceano
was aground on the north channel spit
opposite this city, some six days ago,
experienced mariners were unanimous in
the conclusion that she must suffer
more or less damage about her kelson

hauled off and taken to the quarantine
station, she showed no particular signs
of injury below and good many mar
velled at her luck. 1t nov develops
they were right; and the fact that she
did not leak. was owing to the fact that
she had nothing in the exposed eompart-

of course, no ordinary leak would demon

The bilge keel amidships on the port

be completed by Wednesday of next
