fresh milk. cream and other pershable foods throughout every voyage.
 Just what the first trip will be on this amazing boat has not been decided. It is known that Mr. Williams is ln- tensely interested in scientific expedi. tions. He backed the Sargasso Sea trip of William Beebe. ana contributed to the expenses of the Putnam expedl- ton to Greenland.
 It is, therefore. quite possible that among the early trips his new ship will make there will be one devoted to the furtherance of scientific ends. MT Beebe is close friend of the financier and of course he will be among the invited guests on one of the cruises.
 Harrison Williams, whose money is to buy him a yacht
 more than twice as large and twice as costly as any private pleasure craft, is himself a glamorou. figure. In spite of the publicity which his wealth
 has drawn to him, together with
 his marriage to Mrs. James l.
 Bush. the former wife of the
 Equitable Trust Company's
 vice-president, and his role of host to the Prince of Wales dur
 ing the royal heir'ssvisit to this country. Williams is mysteri- out, almost enigmatic person. r.
 Seldom does he drop the veil of reticence with which he screens himself from the world. His rise in the financial realm has been phenomenal, and his inspired mary guesses as to his probable wealth, estl- mated between S10,o0O, 900 and s20O,- 00o,00O. The management of large utilities companies brought him the major portion of his money.
 Throughout the world people who are able to do so seem to be taking a much greater interest in the sea.
