SHIPPING DELAYED
DENSE FOGS SERIOUS DISLOCATION OF SERVICES LONDON, Feb. 15. Five days’ continuous fog resulted in the almost complete dislocation of London’s shipping business. The Mooltan left Tilbury Dock on Saturday, but was compelled to anchor below Gravesend, where she still lies with her passengers aboard, including Princess Beatrice, who is bound for Gibraltar. A similar fate attended many other vessels. The Mooltan’s mails will be delayed for at least three days, for even if she is able to leave to-night, she cannot depart from Marseilles before Monday.
