The French barque Max, which has been chartered to load at Hastings • Mills for, Sydney, obtained 50,000 francs, or atyoutlO.OOOdol., for the voyage from London to Vancouver from the French > government. Naturally 'under th"se • conditions French owners desire to keep '/their ships at sea as long as possible. , and for this reason French vessels frequently make long trips in ballast to .earn the bounty. In the case of the ' Max, instead proceeding to Vancou-1 ver via Cape Horn, the shortest route, the vessel was taken via the Cape of Good Hope and Hobart, because the ' I more mileage she covered the more she would get. Even under these conditions the Max made the passage in 154 days. The Max sailed from Lon- > 'don to' , Hobart in 83 days. After a • stay of five days at Hobart, she proz eeeded to Vancouver, making the trip ' .to Royal Roads in G3 days, or 140 days' actual sailing time. OVERSEA VESSELS TO ARRIVE AT 3 WELLINGTON.
