PUT QilBURNERS in
TWO BIG CANAL SHIPS
TO DECREASE COSTS

According to the Coast Seamen's
Journal OF San Francisco, Judge
Charles M. Hough of New York has
authorized p. A. s. Franklin, receiv'
er for the International Mercantile
Marine Company, to have the steam
ships Kroonland and Finland convert
ed from coal burners into oil burn
ers at a cost or s47,500 each. The
alterations are to be made by the Rob.
in Dry Dock & Repair Company, Erie
Basin, N. Y, and are to be paid for
out of the funds of the feceiyership.
In the same order Receiver Frank.
lin is authorized to purchase from
Kroeschell Bros. Ice Machine Com
pany new refrigerating machinery for
the Kroonland and Finland, which
will cost $4,000 for each ship, to be
paid for in similar manner. .#
Conversion of the coal burners into
oil burners, Receiver Franklin says,
will result in a saving of $4,000 for
fuel and $500 for wages and feeding
of firemen on each round-trip voyage
of each ship. Doing away with coal
bunkers will permit of carrying OF
1900 additional tons of cargo, at a pro-
fit of $4,000 a ship for each trip I'M
