TOPS 200,000 TONS., The May "Ship Guide" issued by' tho Union Steam Ship Company of New Zealand shows that tho tonnage owned now stands at 202,643, tons. This is the first time in tho history of the lied Funnel Company that tho 2C0.C00 tons, mark has been topped. Tho steamor responsible for tho attainment of the round ligures is tho rccentiy-purchased Gilford—soon to bo renamed Waitomo. These figures, cf course, do not includo tho four "Grange" steamers, now- called the Roscommon, Westmeath, Limerick, and Tyrone. Their added substance would mean the addition of about 20,0C1J tons to tho already imposing register of tho Union Steam Ship Company. There is also the new Willochra to be counted in.' It is just announced that this fine vessel has been chartered for.tho Union licet to replace tho' Warrimoo in the intercolonial trade. ' Her tonnage Is nearly . BCOC, and with the "Granges". she brings tho gross register tonnage under tho control of . the Union. Company to, nearly 230,000. Latterly, tho company seom to liavo been pursuing a policy of pilrclmeo to somo extent in preference .to ' doaling with tho builders. Apart, from tlio four "Granges," which .were tlie objects of a big deal, thev have purchased two big cargo vessels-tlio Kauri and tho Waitomo. There were also t.lie Aoraaigi and the To, lilti, both comparatively recent acquisitions. Now there is the Willochra.. whoso charter includes the right to purcliase-a right that will no doubt be availed of to meet tho increasing demands on tho company's progreesivenes-a.
