The English Church in the rua Evaristo da Veiga was onChristmas Day the scene of a very interesting though simpleceremony, when, in the course of the service, the Tablet erected inthe interior of the church to the Memory of the late Queen Victoriawas unveiled and formally delivered to the care of the British Com-munity in Rio.

After an introduetory address by the Chaplain, delivered fromthe altar, the unveiling was performed by Mr. Rhind, the Actino-'Cônsul General, who delivered a short address appropriate to theoceasion.The Church was prettily decorated with natural ílowers and the

— With regard to the incident of the steamer " S. Paulo" aboutwhich so much unnecessary fuss has been made by the local papers fa telegram from the Ilha Grande confirmed the fact that theman on board that steamer whose detainement police agents wantedto enforce by a simple verbal order, turned out to be a differentperson altogether ! Those persons who went into hysterics about thecase and emphatically criticised the proceeding of the captain andagent of the company, will now have come to the conclusion thatthey lost an excellent opportunity to hold their tongue.

To surrender a passenger who does iiot answer, as in this case^the description given, without a show of proof nor proper legitima-tion, would have been a cowardly act on the part of the captain oragent, and a complete disregard of ali laws, which as a rule, arefaithfully kept by any country supposed to be a civilized one. If thismode of proceeding should be permitted, no passenger would, infuture, be safe from becoming the victim of private intrigues ofsome vindictive individual. It would be sufficient to give the des-cription of a passenger to any police agent accusing him to havecommitted a crime somewhere in Brazil, and upon this the surren-der of the passenger would be enfored by a verbal order of thepolice agent lAbsurd as it may seem, such, however, would be thelogical consequences of such proceeding and the captain, had heacted otherwise than he did, would have created a very dangerousprecedent.

The cricket season of 1901 may, in many respects, be consi-dered the most notable since the inauguration of the R.C.&A.A.,and until the end of July it proved very successful.

The great event, however, the visit of the Buenos Aires XI toRio carne somewhat as an anti-climax, and the rest of the seasonlost much of its interest.

The best match was, without doubt, that against the State otSão Paulo, at Icacarahy, on June 23rd and 24th, when the home side,after having ali .the worst of the game, made a creditable draw,and it is greatly to be regretted that Rio found it impossible tosend an XI to Santos for the return match. '¦ Ja

We trust that no such difficulty will be met with nextyear.

The British Squadron played the R. C. & A.A. on three diffe-rent oceasions and, though twice defeated, showed good ali roundform.

In the Rio v. nictheroy matches honours were divided,with two wins each and one drawn game, and the " Niggers " atlast managed to win a match, old residents assuring us the onlyone during the'last thirteen years.

The inter-bank matches were this season robbed of ali interestowing to the inability of the British Bank to put an Eleven in thefield, and in the only match played the London & Brazilián scoredan easy victory over the London & River Plate.

An innovation this season was the arrangement of fixtures for the2nd Xis, and these proved a great suecess in the early part ofthe

THE FREIGHT MARKETS

British Market. The characteristic ofthe freight market sincelhe last report has again been the strength of the Danube and BlackSea markets. There is a good demand for tonnage giving Decembercancelling, while it almost looks as if owners would see some improve-menfc in quotations for January loading before many days. Thisadvance in rates has come as a blessing to many owners, for unques-tioriably it was never expected, and, in fact, only towards the niiddleof November was it discovered by us and others that tonnage wasgetting short for November loadinq-, which would be reflecLed in anadvance in December rates. Faiirplay, Dec. 5tli. ,

Pernambuco, 19th Bccember, 1901.Sugar. Entries continue on an enormous scale and to 14th inst

total 229,722 bags against, 142,500 bags same time last year. Anactive demand has prevailed for Export qualities and the market wasíirm and currency prices hardened until the end of last week whenprices in New-York once more gave way, and this, added to con-siantly rising rate of exchange has caused a reaction and the marketis fiat, exporters offering 100 to 150 reis less currency. To Liverpoolthere is no demand and coast demand is now again very slackalthough Santos has taken some 39,000 bags and there are still ship-ments completing, but buyers are now few and far between. In out-ports about 2.500 tons Rio Grandes were sold at 1§550, basis 84° and16° drainage, being a remirkably good price and sellers were fortu-nate to have availed of the temporary firmness of the market 10 daysago, as today they would not get anything like the price.

Cotton. Receipts to 14th inst. have been 15, 123 bags against8,790 bags same period last year. The market has been firm owing toimprovement in Liverpool consequent upon the decreased Americanestimates; but apparently the market is very undecided : at one mo-ment active and excited at considerable advance, then falling- awayagain to be foliowed once more by renewed buying. Sertãos havecommanded 9M00 a 9$500 notwithstanding higher exchange andadvance in freights, bub during the past two days there was lessinclination to operate, owing to stringency in the money market andfurther rise in exchange, and oílérs are only 9&200 today íbr Sertãosand 9$100 other qualities. Next month I look for very large entriesof this article, as reports continue good of an abundanc9 of the arti-cie everywhere ; but there are great complaints of want of labour inmany districts to pick it, and also of a scarcity of rolling stock onthe railways which are in no way prepared for the handling of suchlarge crops of everything as there is this year.

'Freights. Steam tonnage continues in request for States and

some advance on Iate rates would, no doubt, be paid for suitablevessels. Owners will no longer apparently look at lOs. to lOs. 6 d.,and I think 12 s. 6d. would today lead to business if boats wereoffered for early January loading. To Liverpool there has been moredemand^for Cotton room and rates have been advanced by liners to%\ d. g 5 °/0 bágs, and 5s. pressed bales. Sugar is scarce and remainsat 12 s. 6d. and Cottonseed 22s. 6d. & 5 ü/0 now demanded.

Exchange opened on 6th at 12d. and has now advanced to12 ^/i^d» but there is very little money, and with stoppage "on the17th of the. Banco Popular, after some days run on them, once moreeast a gloom over the place; Some one seems to have fomented adeadly seragainst the native Banks, ali of which have done greatthings for commerce here and are worthy of more credit and conside-ration than they have received, and unfortunately the foreign Banksdo nothing to allay anxiety or to help the market in any way, pre-ferring rather to raise obstacies and that often serious and in frivo-lous manner.

LIQUID FUEL FOR OCEAN STEAMERSParticulars are published in the German papers of the resultsobtained in a practical test of the value of oil fuel in the geriérâtionot steam on an ocean steamer recently made in the case of theNorddeutscher Lloyd boat Tanglin on a voyage from SÍngapore toSydney _. a distance of nearly 5,500 miles. The Tanglin waschartered to convey to Kerguelen Island the dogs, equipment, andC? S «rnSíe German Antarctic Expedition. She is a steamer ofabou o 2,000 tons capacity, built last year for the Norddeutscher Llovclhy Messrs. Workman,§jHark c<ACq.., Belfast. She was intended forthe i^ast Indian trade, and was fltted with apparatu#for burninfr oiland saving labour in the stoke-hold. Her ordinary bunkers areused for lhe storage ofthe oil, all apertures being closed and madewatertight, and the oil is pumped in from craft lying alongside.The oil used by the Tanglin carne from Borneo, and was taken onboard at Singapore. By the method adopted on board this boatthe oil is converted into èpray and blown on the grates by means ofínjeetion-tubes and nozzles piercèd with line holes. The service ofonly one man is required in feeding the lires, and the supply of oiland the steam^pressuré are always directed to the required rxdnt bvmeans oí special valves. The Tanglin's bunkers are so construetedthat they can be used either for coal or oil. Compared with the oldsystem of coal-stoking the follovüng results were arrived at • Theweighb of each day's supply of fuel was much less, and a'greatsaving of labour was eíFected, masmuch as only one man per watchwas required, instead of five. The Tanglin took 350 bons of oil onboard for her voyage (her capacity for coals is 300 tons), and witha consumption oí 13 tons per day an average speed of 11 * I knoU

per hour was attainèd. This means an increase in the speedamounting to a knot per hour. The most disagreable task connecteclwitli coal-stoking is cJeaning out tho furnaces ; when' oil is used thereis no cleamng to ba done. The chief engineer on board the Tanalinexpressecl his entire satisfaction with the Tesult obtained • fiéis ofopinion that liquid fuel will soon be extensively used on boardgreat ocean steamers, and in his report to thèv directors of the Lloydeompany he strongly advocates the adoptioúvof the new method.iüe langhn used coal on her outward voyage--as far as Sino^noreand aíter shipping oil there she proceeded to Bangkok, consuminilo tons of ou daily, against 18 tons of English and 20 tons oíJapanese coal. The report adds .that the oil gives off no odourand that the heat in the engine-room was quite insiimificantwhile the required pressure of steam was maintained with lase "¦'

aMregards the cost, the oil was put on board at Singapòre at 30s'. pe/"ton and the whole qüantity - 350 tons - was got into the bunkersin lliree-quarters of an hour. The cost of coal at the same portbrought alongside, was 25s. per ton. 'oa /rhe mere comparison of the daily expenditure for fuel, na mel v20 tons oí coal at 2os., equal to £ 25, against 13 tons of oil at Wequal to £ 19 10s., a saving òf £ 5 lOs. per day in favour of íneldoes not represent the whole gain to the shipowner. There is theextra íreight that he may earn as represented by the differencebetween 13 tons and 20 tons deadweight of daily consumptionwhich, on a twenty days' run would be equal to 140 tons Thereis also the extra measurement cargo which he may carry by stowino-the oil fuel in the ballast tanks and peaks, ánd there is tlie savin-ot hremen and of time in bunkering ports. It is evident that 350tons oí oil bunker||taken on board in three-quarters oí an hour caniind no near comparison in the case of any recorded instance of coalbunlvenng, and the cieanliness of taking on board liquid fuel incomparison with dirbying the decks and passenger accommodationaue to coal bunkering is also an appreciable ünancial asset uponr?uAes where passenger competition is at all keen. The extra speedoi the Tanglin, when using oil fuel, illustrates the experience thathas been reported in respect of other vessels, namely, that boilerswhich are hard to steam with coal become quittffeasy to steam withoil on account of the greater iniensity of the heat generated by thenew iuel.
