New York's Waterfront Property.
I New .York ' Marine Journal: The
entire waterfront of this port aggre
gates ' about 444 miles. Of fthis 30
miles are available for ocean com
Ka mile are In actual com
mercial use. Piers owned by the city
Comprise 870,000 lineal zeet, wniie me
privately owned piers comprise 1,
245,000 lineal feet. During 1910 the
city realized a revenue of 14419.206.92
from piers and bulkheads, and from
wharf property leased for ferry pur
poses exclusive of the municipal fer
ries the revenue was $247,913.77. The
cost of repairs and maintenance, In

Pacifo Fast Sailing Passages.
The British schooner David Evans
Recently made the voyage from. Kobe,
Japans to the Columbia river, upward
of 4,000 miles, in twenty-six days,
which is . considered fast sailing.
Othef - fast passages made by sailing
craft between far eastern ports and
Pacific coast ports of the United
States in recent years are a 19-day
passage by the British bark Howard
D. Troop from Yokohama to the Co
lumbia river and a 27-day passage by
the American ship "William H. Star
buck from Shanghai to the same point.
' Progress in Raising the Maine.
The v steel cofferdam around the
wreck of the battleship Maine has
een'completed, and the work of
pumping It out Is expected to begin
about the 26th of this month. "When
this, is accomplished the first work will
be to remove any remains of the crew
tnafmajr still be found ' In her, for
which , purpose the navy department
will send a vessel to Havana harbor,
which will also take on board any ma
terial of historic value from the wreck.
Wireless Compulsory July 1, 1911.
By July 1 every ocean-going steam
ship leaving an American port that
carries fifty persons, including pas
sengers and crew, by law must be
equipped with a wireless telegraph
outfit capable of sending messages 100
B&es.
,. Nothing more Important has been
done In many years to increase the
safety of travel at sea than the general
Installation of wireless. Under the
new system not only will every steam
ship be provided with better means of
self-protection, but It will be a means
of protection for other ships. The
quickness with which relief arrived
from different quarters at the time of
the collision that resulted In the link
ing of the RepubMc demonstrated once
for all how hereafter the ocean Is to
be dotted with live-saving stations.
Other Uses of the wireless at sea are
to be ..regarded as a convenience for
rasVengers and owners that could be
rnfp"n'ser with without great loss.
The compulsory adoption of It by all
passenger-carrying steamships has
now become almost as much of a safe
guard against disaster as a proper
equipment of life-boats. Exchange.
,
Canal Too Cosily.
The special commission appointed
to report on the value of a waterway
between Narraransett and Massachu
setts bays has decided that It would
not justify the great expense entailed
to, build it. The commission found
that a - ship canal from Taunton to
H Ingham, the heads of the tide waters
of Narragansett and Massachusetts
bays,' would involve an expense of $61.
ODO.qOO, .while a canal connecting the
t,wo bays . and running from Taunton
to Plymouth would cost about $41.

t The Floating Dooka of Amsterdam.
The new floating drydock being built
at Amsterdam, which will be known as
the Princess Juliana, will be 466 feet
long, 110 feet wide, and have & lifting
capacity of 12.504 tons. Besides this
dock there are three other floating
drydocks at that port, consisting each
ofa hollow, oblong bottom and two
hollow walla at the longest aides of the
dock. When a ship is to be taken
qut, the walla, and bottoms are filled
Tfrlth water, so that the dock sinks
and the vessel floats In It. The latter is
and the vessel floats In it. The latter is
ter is pumped out, allowing repairs to
be made.
i
Seamen, Not Always Sailors.
f While a sailor may be spoken of as
a seaman. It does not follow that every
seaman Is a sailor. In fact, under
present conditions we have many sea
men who are not sailors at all in the
strict sense of the term, as they have
never learned to reef. hand, or steer,
due to the scarcity of ships now pro
pelled by sail power. Of seamen we
have some half a million passing In
andfout of this port annually, and they
perform the same duties In relation to
steam veasels that saiolra performed
on sailing vessels. This number is
much larger than the total of sailors
that .formerly visited this port, hence
the growing Importance , of the Sea
men s Institutes to care for and pro
JL8 most of whom are
aliens. These sailors homes have been
large factors in lmrpovlng the con
ditions aiong our water front in pre
vening seamen from being imposed up
on, and should have the moral and
pecuniary support of all won are In
terested in the welfare of this port

Washington, May 17. President
Taft has sent to the senate the nomi
nation of Captain Austin M. Knight to
be & rear admiral. Over the protest
of Secretary Meyer, Knight was ac
quitted by a court martial of respon
sibility for the sinking of the monitor
Puritan in Hampton Roads. Secretary
Meyer and Knight have consequently
become the bitterest enemies, and the
talk in Washington is that the secre
tary feels that President Tart's pro
motion of his foe is a deep humiliation.
The secretary has been accused of

institute is ideal in many respects It
is not yet self-supporting, nor Is it
adequate to take care of all the men

inspiring the first few minutes sold about
3 to 7 points net higher with, new crop
positions relatively firm on covering and
some buying by old crop bulls. Con
tinued dry weather over the greater part
of the south probably helped the new
crop positions also, but there was con
tinued liquidation by July longs and fluc

By Associated Press.
Chicago, May 17. Rains in Russia to
day weakened wheat prices here. Cable
dispatches reported also that cheaper and
larger offers were being made from India.
Besides, Argentine weather and crop
proepects appeared to be highly favorable
and a fresh estimate put the United
States export surplus as high as 116,000,
000 bushels. Furthermore, there was a
forecast of showers to-night in the Da
kota and Minnesota. For a while selling
was general. Later, however,' offerings
dried up and a reaction followed. Open
ing prices were 3-8 to S-4c lower. July
started at 88 1-8 to l-4c. a declmo Of 38
to l-2c, but rallied to 88 l-2S5-8c.
Unusual activity was witnessed In oats.
Prices rose sharply on account of fear
as to the effects of dry weather on the
growing grain. Shorts and local specula
tors were somewhat strenuous buyers.
July opened the same as last night to l-4c
hig-her at 32 1-2 to 3-4c and advanced to
34 l-8c.
Corn rallied in sympathy with oats after
being depressed by wheat for a time.

New Tork. May 17. Stocks retained the
gains made yesterday In the early trad
ing to-day and although changes were
slight, there were a number of further
advances. Early transactions were on a
heavy scale. Louisville and Nashville
gained 1 1-4 and Denver and Rio Grande
and Virginia-Carolina Chemical 8-4. The
usual market leaders opened at about on
a level with last nighfs close with the
exception of United States Steel, which
showed some heaviness.
The market took realizing sales well
and although the list hesitated for a short
Interval, the advance was resumed more
vigorously than before. About a score
of stocks sold from 1 to 2 points above
yesterday's closing notably Atchison and
Southern Pacific.
Further extensive gains were made in
the stock market this morning, the whole
list advancing in response to a persistent
demand. The profits resulting from yes
terday's rise Induced some realising and
bear traders also supplied a considerable
amount of stock early in the day.
The market absorbed offerings so rapid
ly thet bear traders were forced to cover
hastily and the upward movement after
being halted temporarily was resumed
with Increased vigor. The feeling of con
fidence aroused by yesterday's reception
of the Standard Oil decision was the chief
factor in the oontinued rise In prices.
Another source of strength was the larpe
operations of western speculative Interests
which have purchased stocks heavily of
late on account of the condition of the
crops which have benefited by recent
rains. Representative stocks went ahead
at a more rapid pace in the second hour
and gains of a point more were general
in these issues. The bond market was
strong with a large demand for the Erie
and Atchison issues.
Business quieted down at midday, but
the diminished demand did not affect the
list, prices ruling close to their best
firures. T"h hlo-h lairai
