'.." Among changes talked of in the coastal running of th Union Company's steamers iB , "the laying up of tho Te Anan for an overhaul ■':-.■: on her return to headquarters, and replacing her by. the-Moura, which has undergone ■:;.- several alterations, principally in connection •■' ■ with the deck gear, during her long stay at Port Chalmers. The Moura has been supplied ;«:■ with a. double winch at tbo tore-hatch, and , •'- cranes: on either side of the af tor-hatch will , ' facilitate the discharge of cargo. She has also ■'. been supplied with a new foremast. When the To Anau's overhaul is finished, she will ;'?■ relievo the Rotomahana, as was done last • . year, so that the boilers of the latter vessel .'■ may bo looked into, and other necessary work • '■' put in hand. It is said that if the Moura gives satisfaction, she will be kept in the AucklandEast : Coast-Southern trade, running in con- . junction with the Te Anau. Should these . changes ne adopted, the Flora will have to find a new running, for it is apparent that y she is too small to meet the increasing requirements of the present trade.

•\*;-V' NEW CODE OF SIGNALS. ' .A new cod; of Ehippinfe signals, a3 agreed upon by tho Board of Trade in conference •with tho representatives of other- countries, will,come into use on January 1, 1902, and will be used in conjunction with the old code during next year. Thirteen years havt been spent in the preparation of the new code, which is held to possess many advantages. It is in part based upon the Morse system of . telegraphy, a complete circle of the flag re- . presenting the dash and a thrust the dot. Many of the more important signals under the old system required three flags, but they can now be made with two. and with greater accuracy. '.*' ."'.•'.•;',.......
