Carpen- ter, 540 tons, rated Al, built in 1881 for C, Kirby & Uo., ot Menominee; the propeller Depere, 786 tons, rated A2, built in 1878 and rebuilt in 1888 for tle Goodrich Transpor- tion Co., Kenosha; the schooner Duval, 182 tong, rated A2, built in 1874 for Oterling, of Milwaukee; schooner George, 751 tons, rat- ed A2, built in 1873 tor Eagan, of Chicago; schooner Goodman, 824 tons, rated Al, bnilt in 1882, for Johnson, of Chicago; schooner J.

Perfection is not to be expected, even after years of experi ence. It may be thatthe new commissioner will not succeed as well as his endorsers ex- pect and that the first year of the office will bring forth many complaints. He should, however, be helped in every way possible. A good work has been done in establishing a Bureau of Navigation and it is a move toward helping our merchant marine. For this much, therefore, let us be thankful.— Maritime Register. NEW SYIYLE OF SHIP. A ‘new style ot ship is belng built at Gree- nock, Scotland. It is a four masted ship of 2,300 tons, full-rigged. It has two small ine dependent engines, with twin screws that wi!l make seven knots an hour in calm wa- ter; they are 185 horse power, and about four tons of coal will work them for a day. The jigger-mast is also used as a smoke- stack... Now here is the advantage, the big ship will not rely on assistance for towing on entering harbors or getting through riv- ere, and at no great cost will not. be dead beat in acalm. It occurs to ask if big schoon- ers on the lakes could not be fitted with similar motive power, which would not cost ayery great deal and save the heavy bills for towing which are paid on every trip. The subject is one that deserves considera- ation, -as does every suggestion. in the way of cutting down a vessel’s expenses. CHANGE OF NAMES. The names of the following lake yessels were changed during June: Old name, tug Henry Marshall; new name, Jesse Spalding; tonnage 26.26; home port, Milwaukee. Old name, tug P. P. Johnson; new name, DP. L.. Hebard; tonnage 79.67; home port, by G. S. Colwell, Port Huron; tug George Pankrantz, 64 tons, rated Allg, built in 1882 and owned by George Pankrantz, of Mani- towoc; the propeller J. C. Perrett, 537 tons, rated Al, built in 1881 for the M. Barge Line, Racine; schooner Penobscott, 260 tons, rated Al, built in 1880, owned by Bradley, et al., and hails trom Milwaukee; schooner H. Rand, 94. tons, rated Bl, another old| ~ “timer, béing built in 1856, and rebuilt in 1875; sidewheel steamer Sheboygan, 624 tone, rat- ed A2, and built in 1869 for the Good- rich Transportation Co., Racine; barge Isaac Stevenson, 462 tons, rated Al, built in 1879 for the M. B. L. Co., Racine; the schooner Transit, 121 tone, built in 1854 and owned by Olson, of Milwaukee; schooner Waukeshaw, 310 tons, rated A2, built in 1864 and owned by Wolf, of Milwaukee; barge H. Whitbeck, 498 tone, rated A1, built in 1880, and owned by the M. B. L., Racine; schooner Gesine, 99 tons, built in 1853 and owned by Anderson, of Milwaukee. Quite a respectable fleet. THE BUREAU OF NAVIGATION. The Dingley bill was not the only one in the interests of shipping passed at the last seesion of Congress. An act was also passed creating a Bureau of Navigation in the Treasury Department. The bill was ap- proved by the President, and the bureau will be established as soon as possible. A man untried in work of this kind is to be at its head, but as he has had experience both as a shipmaster aud shipowner and is recom. mended by practical shipping wen as an in- lelligent, quick-witted man it is to be huped that he will organize the bureau so that it will be what the framers of the act intended —a benefit to shipping. The Bureau of Nav- igation is intended to consolidate under one head all the many bureaux of the ‘Treasury Department which now, in any way, have supervision over merchant shipping. The need for such a bureau has long been appar- ent, for much that is annoying in govern- ment work connected with the merchant marine can be attributed to the want of sy s- tem in the ‘'reasury Department. It was forgotten, or possibly never considered, that each bureau was simply part of one system which had jurisdiction over one interest— shipping. Each bureau attended strictly to its own work, and being interested in noth- ing else, any suggestions valuable to ship ping interests that might come of an intelli- gent manayement of the work as a whole, were wanting. Under this disconnected plan, the Secretary of the Treasury, as the official head, was not likely to know much about the maritime bureaux of his depart- ment, or to get many good ideas from the chiefs of bureaux us to the best way of mak- ing the work more valuable. A long step forward has therefore been made by placing one man over the several offices, He can at least arrange it sothat they will work har- moniously and toward a common end. He will, as commissioner of navigation, have “general superintendence of the commercial pesrine and trerchtnt seamen of the United] Marquette.
