A remarkably smart loading performance was Accomplished by the Howard Smith colI her Aeon at Newcastle the first week in July. i Using four cranes, she took aboard 4600 tons of coal in eight hours, representing an averI ago rate of 010 tons per hour. This is better ; than the records established by the Period, 14100 tons in 10 hour?, and tho Werribce, 5789 I tons in 12i hour* I Tho Dunedin barque Anrope, which left Aurklard for 'Frisco en May 21, is a vessel with a history. The Liverpool correspondent of Lloyd's Weekly Register in a recent article iefer« to the An lion*, an iron barque built l.v Messrs. John Held and Co. at Port Glasgow in lfW{, as brine nest in fame to Hie Cutty Sark. The Autiope was originally owned by Messrs. J. Heap and Sons, tho well-known rice-millers of Liverpool. As years patuer, by the owners found it orelerab'e to brine their rice in by the regular steamers, so the \ntioi>e was handed over to Messrs- firscie. Beftlley, and Co. She was later sold to a Russian firm, and was cap'iit.,l by tho J acinose during the RussoJnpanesj) v/ir. Disposed of as a. prize, she was purchased by a British Columbia business man to bo into the lumber trade. Neil the Piparoa Coal Company, of New Zealand, purchased her for a hulk. In 1915 the Otneo i Rollins; Mills Company bought the Antiope, . which, after being re-igged, traded with suer«M in the Southern Hemisphere. On Severn- , ber 15.1916, she stranded inside Bluff Harbour, j but it was not lorn; Wore she vaa n comI mission again. Since that time she has been j regularly sailing tho &eas and is looking as fit as ever.
