It is reported that the steamer Herman Sauber, recently launched for Hamburg owners, 'has created unusual interest in , British shipping circles. She is a specially designed, self-trimming collier, with mechanical discharge. The carge ) can be discharged at the rate of 1000 tons per hour, or, allowing for barge changing, at 600 tons per hour. She carries 3750 ions of 18ft draught, and 1 her entire cargo can be finished in six | kours, employing only about six men. 1 When it is understood that the most mo- • dern ocean carrier of similar size can accomplish only about 300 tons per hour with 112 men, and the customary derricks and winches, it will be seen how striking is the economy both in time and labor.
