Miscellaneous articles on the same page:

 

EAST LONDON HARBOUR

 

Mr. George Ireland, Durban, is at present negotiating with the East London harbour authorities with a view to their allowing him to conduct a series of experiments at bar-clearing by means of his electric eroder. It is understood that Mr. Ireland is prepared to undertake a course of experiments to show the channel-clearing efficiency of his apparatus on condition that he be recouped for the actual expenses incurred only. The Resident Engineer, East London harbour, has submitted a report on the subject, but the East London harbour authorities have decided that before incurring any expense in experimenting they should wait for the result of the official experiments to be undertaken at Durban.

 

“SAVE ME FROM MY FRIENDS”

 

At the Cape Town Police Court, recently, before Mr. J. C. Faure, R.M., Charles Wood, lately quartermaster of the Dunvegan Castle, one of the three survivors of the Drummond Castle, was charged with absenting himself from the vessel without leave. A letter from Captain Robinson was read complaining of the drunkenness and impudence of the prisoner. The prisoner pleaded guilty, and stated that his friends on shore had completely spoilt him, for was he (witness) not one of the three survivors of the Drummond Castle? He had been stood treat several times, and got a little heady, but he would promise to behave himself in future.

 

The Magistrate, addressing prisoner, stated that one would suppose that Wood, after such a miraculous escape, would consider himself destined for better things. He could not send him to prison, but would order his articles to be cancelled.

 

MOSSEL BAY’s GRIEVANCE

 

In Cape Town the other day, Mr. E. W. Matare, of Mossel Bay, and Mr. Stanhope White, of Oudtshoorn, met the managers of the mail steamership companies with the object of calling their attention to the serious loss and inconvenience likely to be caused to merchants and others at Mossel Bay owing to the cessation of the present weekly call at that port. The shipping companies were represented by Mr. T. E. Fuller, M.L.A., and Mr. Steele (Union Company), and Mr. L. MacLean and Mr. D. C. Andrew (Castle Company). After hearing the views of Messrs. Matare and White, who made a special point of the fact that the weekly call had been abolished without any notice being given to the merchants at Mossel Bay, the shipping managers intimated that the change had been made in London, and not at the initiative of the local offices, and they undertook to make know to the authorities at headquarters the representations made in favour of the continuance of the late service. It was agreed that Messrs. Matare and White should cable at once, requesting that the weekly call might be continued pending correspondence on the subject, and this request has also been backed up by a cable from the Cape Town Chamber of Commerce, pointing out the injury which the abolition of the weekly call will cause to Western Province trade.
