Timaru, wa? anchored outside Lyttelton Heads J 'Tlio d New Zealand Shipping Company's s.s. Bimutaka left for Port Chalmers yesterday afternoon. .She iaao return soi LyUeltoii to continue loading, and to leave W el.ington for London on August 16. . HM S Archer is expected to arrive from Weliintoon at the beginning of .next week. The growth of the German mercantile marine has been marvellous A. few years ago it scarcely existed, and to-day it is second m Europe. Some figures given by an English paper will convey an idea of this surprising development. In . 1870 Germany possessed only seven private shipyards. Sne had eighteen, in 1880, twenty-five in 1830. 10-day she possesses thirty-nine In 1870 the seven yards employed 2800 workmen. The thirty-nine oi 1901 require 37 850 hands. In ibis number is not reckoned the workpeople in accessory trades—meullursrv. cabinet-making, leather, stuffs, and others would raise the figure to 90,000. These shipyards are prosperous. Tho consumption of iron for ships of over 100 tons in 1830 reached 45.900 tons. In 1899 it nad risen to or = nil 4 ons These yards yield dividends of 12 per cem. 13 per cent, and 14 per cent Yesterdav the s.s.
