Archibald, as follow:-Tho barque Rothopay Bay is loading a cargo of case-oil at Ban Francisco for Auckland: the barnucntine Bnnorifa and the harquo Daniel are boOii en route to San Fraucisco to load cars-oil for New Zealand. Concrete boilers for ships might be the outcome of a novel experiment to bo made by the Bethlehem Shipbuilding Corporation, Ban Francisco. Speed in turning them out and an estimated saving of 90 per cent, in the cost of manufacture are the- two possibilities of the experiments now being mru'.e. The idea original oil with John K. liulcer. Federal supervising inspector of steamship!! on the Pacific Coast, who wan so favourably imI pressed on the tral trip of the concrete shin Faith that he at once made no his mind that concrete boilers were also a poKiiibilitv.
