INDRAPURA IN POET. .It is clearly evident that the latest addition to the Tyser fleet—the Indrnpura—is au exceptionally smart and high-clas.s vesEel. She was launched at Wallscnd-on-Tyne on October 10, from the yards of Messrs. Swan, Hunter, and Wigham Richardson, the naming ceremony being performed by Miss Rachel N. Eoyden, daughter of Mr. E. Royden, and grand-daughter of Sir Thomas Hoyden, of Liverpool, managing owner of the Indra Line of steamers. In 1910 Messrs. Swan. Hunter, and Wigham Richardson built for the same owners the twin-screw.steamer Indrbarah, which was 'acknowledged to be an exceptionally flue vessel of her kind, and eocondto none in her particular trade. The Indrapura is a somewhat larger vessel, and shows further improvements in certain directions. Like other of the line, she will be employed in carrying refrigerated cargoes from Now Zealand ports to London. Her construction was under the supervision of Messrs. Wm. Esplen and Sons, nf Liverpool, the owners' consulting engineers, and of Captain Homo, Marine Superintendent of the ludra Line. The dimensions of the Indrapura. arc:— Length, sC6ffc. over all;, breadth, 61ft.; and depth to shelter deck. 44f1. The ship is classed ICO AJ. at Lloyd's, but has'been built sumowlnt in excess of thera requirements. Three of the five capacious holds and 'tween duclts ;are iiwulaled. In order to handle cirgobs with rapidity a snccially largo .equipment of winches has, been ■ prDVlded, end also an equipment of Imperial flarelifhts for night working. , ■ \ v•.•--..- ■ •-. The living accommodation for both the officers ar.d crew ' has • been carefully planned, and is well ventilated, making those quarters more roomy and comfortable than is often the ' There are also comfortable cabins for a -dozen '■ pasEcnucrs. The twin-screw engines by the Wallsend (•upway and Engineering Co., have cylinders 23* in., 39in., and 66in., with "46in. stroke, developing 6200 hor;e-power. There nre five single-ended boilere, with a workiiiK pressure of 2001b. per square inch, and fitted with Howden's forced draught. On this, her maiden voyage to New Zeaand, tho Indrapurpj left tho Royal Albert Docks, London, on December 22, with 14, CC( tons of cargo on board, which is said to , ie tho largest cargo over,,shipned from jondon c by ono vet.-81.

Heavy seas were shinped, tho water breaking on board fore and aft, but no damage was done, and tho new steamer rode out tho storm in a style which stamps her nn excellent spa boat. Calls were made at Melbourne. Sydney, Auckland, and Nanier, the Indrapnra arriving. at the King's. Wharf. Wellington at 12.28 p.m. yestertlny. On the rim from Las Palmar, to tho Capp of Good Hope the verscl averaged K5 inofs an lioar. From Sydney to Auckland she averaged 13.5 knots nn hour. Captain R. P.
