The Norwegian motor-ship Tungasha, to the agency of Messrs A. 11. Turnbull and Co., was an arrival at Lyttelton yesterday morning from Auckland to discharge the balance of her cargo of Ephos phosphates, which she loaded at Sofago Bay in the Bed Sea. The vessel attracted considerable interest, on account of her fine lines and clean appearance. One of the main features? about, the vessel is the fact that no coal whatever is carried on board, all the power and steam for the radiators being derived from crude oil. Even in the galley the oven is electric and the stove is an oil burning one. Although a cargo ship, she has luxurious accommodation. She can accommodate twelve passengers and her passenger appointments are superior to those on many liners. All the cabins are mahogany veneered and french polished. The fittings are in keeping. The dining hall is spacious and weP furnished Enlargements of Norwegian scenery adorn the walls. The Tungasha was built at Hamburg for the firm of W. WJlhelmsen (Norway). She made her trial trip as recently a,s August 9 last. Her average speed is between 12s and 13 knots per hour on a consumption of from 1 2 to 12$ lons of crude oil per day. Her twin propellers are driven by two six-cylinder Diesel motors. Tho vessel during her passage from Sydney, though she encountered the recent bad weather, averin knots. Sho is a vogue! of the flush deck type with two holds forward of the. bridge and three aft. These holds are. capable of carrying 2200 tons of jj-oneral cargo. Ten electric winches am provided for the handling of cargo and receive their power from three dynamos. Her gear for loading and discharging is well adapted for prompt dispatch. J After her trial trip at Hamburg the vessel, proceeded to Oslo, where she load-

Captain Kmil Chist.ensen, who has command of the vessel, has been running from Continental ports to Australia. for the past, fourteen years, but is making his first visit to New Zealand. He has associated with him three officers, four engineers, one wireless operator and sixteen others.

The officers', engineers' and passengers* accommodation is situated under the bridge. All her deck houses ventilators, derricks and railings are painted white, also her masts. .She has a stumpy funnel which has two light blue coloured, bands around it. l’er .Press Association.
