sells yesterday, the British steamer
Glencoe entering from Savannah. She
will be loaded by the Pensacola Lum-
Der Co.
The fishing schooner Lettie G. How

$4,000 pounds of snappers for Saunders
& Co.
The steamers Fritz and Edna c. were
among the arrivals yesterday, both
bringing heavy cargoes of naval stores.
the return trip and will leave this
morning.
The Indictment weather of yesterday
put stop to all kinds of work in the
bay, the rain and rough seas combin
ing to cause a lay off.
Carrying the largest cargo ever
loaded on a single craft in the Missis
sippi river trade, the steel barge Ed
ward E. Green, of the Mississippi Val
ley Transportation Company, has left
st. Louis bound for New Orleans. The
freight weighs more than 5000 tons
and is equal to the cargo of four ordi-
nary steamboats,. The toWboat Mariner
is the Green's escort down the river
and the fleet should reach New Orleans
by next Monday.
A Gigantic Casting.
The statement that the stern frame
of the new White Star liner Olympic
weighs 100 tons may not convey to the
laYmCR much as to its great size; but
when the fact is considered that there
was not a freight car in the United
Kingdom large enough to transport it
he 6yxy xxz1oa
was cast to the shipyard at Belfast,
where the vessel was built, it will prob
ably give 3 clearer conception of the
gigantic size of this casting. 1t pro-
truded over the side of the car on
which it was conveyed, so that traffic
on both tracks of the railroad had tenn
porarily to be suspended, and some of
the stations even had to be encroach
upon to let it pass in safety. So much
for the advancement made in a hum
dred years of steam vessel building. A
century that was begun with the sue
cessful operation of the little Clermont
of about 1873 gross tons. from this port
to Albany, and during which the ship
builders art was developed so as to
produce with ease the $4,000 ton Olym-
pic.
It is safe to say that the second CEN
fury Of steam vessel building will wit
ness no such development as the first
did in regard to size, but equally safe
is it to state that great changes will
come about in the motive power of
vessels, as these are already being
| foreshadowed in the internal com bus
| tion engine with which several vessels
now building for the transatlantic trade
are being equipped. 1t is also reason
able to predict that electric propelling
machinery will be developed and made
practically useful ere long.-New York
