She will probably sail to-day lor nortnern ports. The local agents for the tederal and Shire line have been advised that thel lnvortay, en routo from Liverpool to Wellington, made a call at Durban on tho 2nd instant. From the South African port tho veseel goes to Auckland direct, and then comes on to this port, being due here during the first week in August. Due at 'Wellington from Sydney on July 15 tho Alokoia will proceed to Dunedm, Where sho will be withdrawn from the intercolonial service, and will subsequently enter tho. East Coast running.

Mr W. Doolin has passed his examination for first mate. He was acting fourth mate on the Maitai during her trip from Melbourne, and came ashore at Dunedin for instructions. Mr S. Williamson has joined the Ennerdale as second engineer in- succession to iilr H. Neilson. Mr H. White has signed on the Mokoia as third engineer in place of Mr Keed. Mr J. Urquhart, late fourth engineer of the Maunganui, is to join the Tofua at Sydney. Mr G. J. Netherton has signed on the Mokoia aa second officer in plate of Mr D. Gardner. The four-masted schooner Cecilia Sudden, which has been.fixed to load, hardwood at Port Huon, Tasmania, for Wellington and Napier, recently arrived at Hobart with a cargo of timber from Puget Wound, and was purchased from her American owners by a Tasmanian syndicate. When registered at Hobart. the- Cecilia Sudden will bo the largest sailing craft upon the register, the next largest being the lima, 345 tons. Tne timber trade is one of the few fields in which sailing vessels hold their own in competition with steamers. Quite a fleet of sailing vessels—the Kassa, the lima, the Handa Isle, the Ruhra, the Roonganah, the Volador, the Southern Cross, the Joseph Sims, to mention only some of them —are engaged in tlie timber trade between Tasmania and mainland and New Zealand ports. The Cecilia Sudden was built in 1902 at Fairhaven, California. She has a gross measurement of 643 tons. According to an official return, the total estimated loss occasioned by the more important shipping casualties which occurred in April was £323,000, making £1,595,000 for the first four months of the year. There were 2250 accidents of all kinds to vessels of £0 tons nnd upwards during the latter period, and 103 snips, aggregating 194,705 tons gross, were 'totally lost. Included in the April list are the steamer Wallarah, owned by the Wallarah Coal Company, Sydney, which was wrecked in Catherine Hill Bay, the insurance value , being £9000; the dredger Posijipnia, valued at £11,090. missing on passage from Rotterdam and Fremantle to Port Pirie: and the German barque Socstern, insured with cargo for £8000, which is believed to Jiavo- foundered while proceeding from Newcastle, New South Wales, to Caleta Buena with coal.
