The Tweeddale is due to ar rive here next week. ; She Is now at IS anal mo taking on a quantity of coal. The Tweeddale and Boverlc will load for Australia and the Gymeric I, booked to load for Singapore.

Other cargo ships araths Carmanian from Hamburg, the Desalx, Glenalvon, Gulf Stream and Poltalloch from Ant wern and the- La Tour da Au- vergne from Hamburg. The Jotal net tonnage of the fleet enroute Is much smaller than the usual for this time of the year, a will be seen from the fact that while the total today Is 32,247 tons. It was 99.3K7 at the corresponding time iHtt year. 64,861 tons in 1906 and J J,, tic in 110&. i I . ',.... rt t this -time ia also smaller than ordinarily by several thou sand tons. Including the British steam ers Rtrathnalrn and Unganda there are 15 foreign vessels in the river today, the aggregate net tonnage of which is 81.869. On the corresponding date of last year the tonnage was 66,406, on the same date Jn 1906 Ft was 87,040, and In 1906 it was 88,417. - Thla condition of affairs is due tb the fact that bulk .of the wheat ship ping this season was' done during the months of September, October and No vember. .
