A large steamship has recently been constructed on the Tyne having no masts at all. Instead of masts the vessel is furnished with four large pillars placed on each side of foe ship, two forward and two aft, which serves as derrick posts. The two forward pillars are connected by a bridge, 50 feet above the water, which may be used for lookouts. The vessel is 482 feet long and 64 feet broad, and is to be used in the far East to carry bulky cargoes. Accommoda-

\ tlons are, however, provided for 860 emigrants. Another vessel es foe same type is building.
