The Port Duuedm, which has lifted the largest single shipment of apples this season, sailed last night. The Opawa, whose loadiug also included apples, .sailed this morning.

There is said to be no incentive to race this trip. But the old fashioned urge to bo there first may operate to some extent unofficially.
