THE MERCHANT MARINE.

The question has often been asked dur
ing the past year or more of low freights,
what is to become of the big schooners
when they are driven out of the coal car
rying trade? But as yet no one has been
ready with satisfactory answer. These
vessels were built specially for the coal
trade and rarely have freight to the coal
ports: so the return cargo must pay for
the round trip, and at the low rate at
which coal is carried in barges there is
no profit for the schooner owners. In a
recent interview John G. Crowley, man.
ager of the Coastwise Transportation
Company, which has feet of ten five
and six-masted schooners, and which built
the seven-master Thomas W. Lawson,
throws some light on the situation by de-
claring that the day of the sailing vessel
is past and that they can no longer COM
pete with steamers After twenty-five
Years experience in the coastwise trade,
and giving the question due elaboration,
it has been decided to build no more
schooners and orders have been placed
for two steamships of 1000 tons burden
each, and the very latest things ir the
way OF ship construction, to be delivered
to the company about the first OF next
March. Captain Crowley said further:
I'VE shall still keep our schooners. |
have always contended that sailing yes
sells were cheaper, and still declare that
this is so. In fact this cannot be denied
by anyone. The only reason for our
change, as l said, is that it is no longer
possible to compete with steam vessels
because we cannot get the trade if we do
not come up to the demands of present
day trade"

Famous Opera.

A great ovation was accorded to Miss
Blanche Rae Edwards and Umbertc
Sacchetti in the performance of Lucia
di Lammermoor' given by the Aborn
Opera Company at the Newark The
atre last night.
Miss Edwards. a soprano, sang the
role of Lucia. Being her first appear
ance here her efforts were watched
with interest. She disclosed a pleasing
stage presence and a fine vocal equip
ment, which enabled her to meet the
difficult requirements of the 1orid
arias to good purpose.
Sacchetti. one of the best of the Aborn
%tenors, sang the part of Edgar and to
him went perhaps the greatest need
of approval. He sang in Italian and
his countrymen in the audience, OF
whom there were many, even went SO
far as to shout their pleasure.
Harry Truax made a fair Henry;
George Shields did Bideth-Bent well;
James hurry had little to do as Nor
man; George G.. White was a mediocre
Sir Arthur. and Vera Roberts was an
acceptable Alice.
