THE STEAMER O? THE FUTURE. Bo rapid has progress been mado at Whiteinch, near Glasgow, with the construction of the SCUKon oil-enzined liner for the Danish Ea«t Aeiatio Company, CopenhaEon, that it is now expected she will be running demonstration trials on tho Clyde before tho end of the year. Tho vessel (6ays the "Daily Chronicle") is to havo a 6pced of 12 knots, and it is bcliored that ICO tons of oil will take hor as far as would 300 tons of coal. There will be no firemen, funnels, smoke, , ashes, or dirt, and tho engines can be rtartod in five minutes, compared to the 15 hours required to raise steam with boilers. The only other boat of tho type in courso of construction in the kingdom is being built at Middlesbrough for a shipping company, of whioh Lord Fiirncss is chairman. Sho Is a vessel of 3COO tons, and will bo engaged in tho North Atlantic trade. If the experiment is successful, other 011-cn-Emcd ships will bo built, for the 6ame company. It i 6 on the Continent that tho bulk of tho enterprise in connection with tho application of oil engines to oceangoing vessels is centred. Two aro in hand for the Hamburg-American Line—ono of 6500 tons on the Weser, and anotlicr of 55C0 tons on the Elbe. The German Levant Lino and tho Hamburg South American Company have aJso motor-boats on order, and the German American Petroleum Company have just placed a contract with a firm in Kiel for two petroleum tank ships, with a carrying capacity of 7900 tons each. They will run between European ports and Eastorn A6ia. These cargo vessels of moderate size will bo followed by passenger motorliners of huge dimensions, and the speed of Transatlantic travel will bo considerably increased.

On account of the Flora being delayed at Greymouth, tho Waipori will take up hor running. Tho vcebcl will leave Duncdin for Westport and Greymouth, omitting Wellington.

Tlio latest addition to Itao Olan fleet (the Olan Macijillivray) obtained a speed of 141 knots during her trials recently. Mr. T. B.
