EASTMOOR SAILED —At 2 o'clock this afternoon the Kunciman steamer Eastmoor was t«> be dispatched from Auckland (Prince's Wharf) for Wellington, Lyttelton, and Dunedin, to complete the discharge of her cargo from Montreal. The vessel is under charter to the Canadian National Steamships. REPLACEMENT OF TONNAGE.— Slowly, but steadily, the inefficient warbuilt tonnage owned in the United Stat .-s is being broken up, and statistics relating to the tonnage of mercantile vessels in service are gradually tending to bear some relationship to the true position (says the -Motor Ship”). Wholly fallacious arguments have, from time to time, been built up l>y comparing the present-day tonnage with that existing before the war, oblivious of the fact that several million tons of American ships were laid up and would never see service again. They should not, therefore, be included in comparisons. Light is thrown on the situation by the last returns issued by Lloyd's con- » corning wrecks, these being for the quar- ! ter ended March 31, 1 ICS. It is shown f -that, during that quarter 227 vessels of l 399.253 tons gross were either condemned, lost or broken up, and the world’s tonnag- is r. duced by that amount. This included American ships of about 150.000 tons gross, among them being more than 50 of the Lake class.
