During a night last week the New Zealand Refrigerating Company’s lighter, Mana, sank at the Castlecliff wharf, Wanganui. She was tied up at the top end of the wharf, and next morning was found with only the mast out of the water, the little vessel lying in 11 or 12 feet of water at low tide. There was only one man on the lighter, a fireman, and he got ashore without any difficulty. The vessel, which was empty at rhe time, settled first at the after end, and then gradually sank under the water. The decks, with the exception of the bridge deck, are covered with water at low tide. Spring tides are approaching, which, giving lower water at low tide, will facilitate salvage operations. WORK ON THE CLYDE. Everybody will have heard the story of the ' American who was contemptuously comparing the Clyde with the Mississippi, and who was silenced by the observation that while Providence had been responsible for -the MissisBippi, human engineers had made the Clyde. It is a literal fact that the famous home of rJi'pbullders and sea. commerce is largely an artificial waterway. Still the work of improvement, begun nearly 100 years ago, is being continued. New docks are about to be constructed which will give six large parallel basins with direct entrance from the river, and will add about seven miles of quay i to the accommodation of the port. The total I cost of the new works will be about £2,000,- I 000. Aimbitious developments are also proceeding at the port of Tx>ndon. A new cargo ; quay, 1000 feet long, has just been put mto j service, and plans for a large passenger stage ' nt Tilbury and for big extensions to dock ac- ' Option are b&iag prepared. ,
OCEAN MOTOR YACHT. The trim-looking ocean-going motor yacht, Speejacks, 64 tons, reached Suva on December 11, after an interesting voyage (says a cable message to the Sydney Sun). The little vessel, which is a beautiful model, and most comfortably fitted throughout, is owned by Mr. A. Y. Gowen, of the Cleveland Yacht Club, New York, who is accompanied by his I wife. Six friends compose the crew. A secretary and two cooks complete the company. The yacht is the first vessel to arrive at Fiji with a wireless telephone outfit, and the operators at Papeete picked her up when 1200 miles away, and distinctly heard a gramophone concert on board: also voices could be heard so distinctly that the speakers could bo identified. The Speejacks left New York on August 21, and called at Florida, Jamaica, Parama Canal, the 'Paumatas, Tahiti, Pago Pago, and Apia to Suva. From Fiji the route will be to New Hebrides, Noumea, Brisbane, Manila, Japan, China, India, Colombo, the Suez Canal, England, and home. The owner and his wife left the vessel at Papeete and visited New Zealand, and joined the Speejacks later. The yacht is equipped with a pair of 200 h.p. Winton Diesel engines and two 7% k. Westinghouse generators, and has twin screws. She is fitted with every modern convenience. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS, ARRIVED. Wellington. January 17.—Rtmutaka. (5.20 a.m.), from London.
