PORT WAIEATO. The steamer Tawora, towing two largv barges, heavily laden -vritb berodne and other poods, berhed at tho new wharf at Hamilton on the Waikato River on Saturday. Tha goeds were trausliipped from the s.s. Alb* tross at Port Waikato early this week, whara, the eteamer Wallser.d. from Sydney, berthed. The captains of both vessels e»J that they experienced no difficulty in negotiating the sand bar. Captain Rule, of th» Wsllsend, who is a stranger to these shore* entered under full steam without assistance* steering only by tho newly-prepared chart, tho vessel drawing 17ft of water. The resurvoy of the harbonr is now completed, and beacons have been fixed. Negotiations are proceeding for tho Wallsrad to bring 8003 tons of phosphates for Hamilton direct frotn Sydney on her next voyage. OIL-ENGINED VESSELS. INCRE7ASED OUTPUT. Much has been written regarding tha large • increase in the building of high-powered ciler.gined vessels ranging from 5000 tons up- ', wards. Messrs Burceinler and Wain's Mw- ' kin-o;j;-Skibsbyggeri Akliwelskabet, Copenhagen, have several !ar?e vessels in hand for the East Asiatic Company, Ltd. (Ostasiatistisko Kompagni (Dot) Aktieaelskabet), each ship having four-cylinder '""urmeister type Diesel engines installed. The tonnage X thece vessels ranges from 10,400 to 12,800. Each of the vessels will have twin Fcra-.vs. They will be used in tha service Copenhagen and the Dutch East Tr.duv. The days of experiment are Quicklj pu.=?in<r, and oil engine? to-day may Tjo re gardrd as reliable as steam machinery. From the !>oint of view of space sf.ving it may b» tiken that tho space occupied by an oil en* gir.p, complete with oil fuel tanks, is nearly 50 pr-r cent- less thaji that of a steam plaujf of ecuial horse-power. Again, with regard to labour savin?, the engine-room stag ■ for a ractor vessel is roughly one-tbirf l«*i than that of a steamer of similar size. Xheat are facts which ara daily being demonstrated ir ell parts of the world. Thus it may f-sfoly be predicted fiat Ul3 futcro of the oil engine in connection with cargo and p» E«i2er vessels is atsnred SHIPPING- NOTES.
