ATLANTIC COAST GOSSIP. 'Office of the Marine Review, Room 1005, No. 90 West. St; eo New York City. The British steamer William Cliff, which picked up the British steamer Cambrian, disabled through losing her propeller, in mid-Atlantic, and with considerable difficulty towed her to the British Isles, has been awarded $25,000 salvage by the British courts, Capt. Davies receives $1,500 and the crew $4,750. The Hamburg-American liner Kais- Victoria sailed from New York last Saturday inaugurating a new departure in steamship com- fort. Owing tto the extreme steadi- ness of the vessel at sea it has been found possible to have loose chairs at the tables in the dining saloon, so a number have been installed. 'Fo avert a collision ~ with -- #he Dutch tank steamer Deutschland, dur- ing the thick fog and rain of Satur- day morning, the Cunard liner Lu- cania was swung out of her course in the Gedney channel and _ went aground. She was apparently undam- aged, 'however, and when refloated an hour later proceeded on her voyage. The Deutschland also ran ashore on a ledge in the channel and had d-f- ficulty getting off. She was damaged below the water line, springing sev- eral plates. Beginning the latter part of June or early in July the North German Lloyd will inaugurate a special ser- vice to Norway and tthe far north for the benefit of summer tourists. The details of this service, duration, ports of call, steamers, etc., are now being perfected, and it is reported that some lof tthe line's best steamers will be assigned to the service. Repairs are to be made at Phila- delphia to. the British steamer Eagle Point which arrived at that port con- siderably overdue owing to the break- ing of her crankshaft in midocean. A new shaft, forged at the works of the Bethlehem Steel Co., will be fitted, the repairs to take about 20 days. 'Capt. R. A. Sargent and David H. Howard, United States inspectors of steam vessels, who were ordered to Porto Rico to inspect vessels en- gaged in local trade, left New York on Saturday on the steamship Seneca for Mayaguez.
