The vessel was built with consideration for the severe competition in the shipping trade, and is designed to transport cargo at as low freights 'as possible. The main dimensions are: Length over all, 390 feet, moulded breadth 55 feet, moulded depth to shelter deck 36 feet. The vessel will load 8300 tons deadweight on a draft of 24ft lOin, and has a grain capacity of 485,000 cubic feet. The ballast tanks in the double bottom will hold 1500 cubic metres and can be used for ballast water or fuel oil. In addition there are ballast tanks in the peaks and on the shelter deck under the bridge holding 211 and 370 cubic metres respectively. The deck tanks were built with a view to the difficulties of obtaining cargo from port to port and the frequent necessity of making long voyages in ballast in 'order to obtain the most advantageous freights. With all the ballast water placed in the bottom only, the vessels generally are subject to a too heavy listing and experience has shown that such listing can be lessened by installing the deck tanks mentioned. The vessel was christened Aurora. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS. Dunedin, January 26:—Sailed: City of Bagdad, 10.55 a.m., from Sydney. Wellington, January 26:—Arrived: Orepuki, 11.40 a.m., from Wanganui.
