During the month of July, 1929, 111 tank ships transited the Canal with an aggregate net tonnage, Panama Canal measurement, of 585,977, on which tolls of $505,642.09 were collected. Cargo amounted to 482,427 tons. In point of net tonnage, tanker traffic increased 15.7 per cent over the same traffic for the corresponding month a year ago, while cargo tonnage increased 4.3 per cent over the cargo tonnage of July, 1928. Tanker traffic comprised 21 per cent of the total commercial transits through the Canal during the month; made up 23.7 per cent of the total Panama Canal net tonnage; were the source of 22.4 per cent of the tolls collected; and carried 18.6 per cent of the total cargo in transit. through the Canal. The number, aggregate net tonnage, tolls, and cargo of tank ships transiting the Canal during the month of July, 1929, segregated by direction of transit and nationality of vessels, are shown in the follow- ing tabulations, with comparative totals, for the two preceding months and for July, 1928:_ No. Panama Tons Nationality. of Canal net Tolls. of ships. tonnage. cargo.

Recent press reports indicate that in anticipation of a heavy export' movement of apples through Pacific ports of the United States and Canada, the North Pacific Coast Line, operated jointly by the Royal Mail Steam Packet Company and the Holland-American Line, has scheduled eleven extra refrigerator sailings during the ensuing season. During the period from September 30, 1929, to March 17, 1930, the line will have 28 sailings, constituting the heaviest apple season sched- ule in the history of the line. The North Pacific Coast Line plies between the Pacific coast of North America and Europe (Great Britain, Germany, Holland, and Belgium), operating normally a service "A" on fortnightly schedule and a service "B" with sailings every three weeks. Both services carry a limited number of passengers. Scuppers. THE PANAMA CANAL, DEPARTMENT OF OPERATION AND MAINTENANCE, BALBOA HEIGHTS, C. Z., August 1, 1929. To all Steamship Owners and Agents-Recent amplification by the Commissioner of Navigation of Article 21, 1925 edition of Measurement of Vessels, provides that, , if exemption from tonnage is claimed for such open, isolated erections as forecastles, bridges, poops or houses, on the grounds of a single tonnage opening in either side or center of bulkheads of same, the following conditions must prevail: (1) A single opening of not less than the regulation 3' x 4' size in a forecastle, poop or house of ordinary length requires in addition, freeing ports and at least two scuppers, one on each side. Scuppers may drain either overboard, into bilges or on deck. (2) A bridge space, or extended forecastle or poop, covering the waist of a ship, with a single opening of not less than the regulation 3' x4' size, re- quires freeing ports and a suitable number of scuppers (not less than two, one on each side) the latter not to drain on deck. (3) A single opening in a forcastle, poop or house of ordinary length at least 4 feet wide with an area of not less than 20 square feet requires in addition, two scuppers only, one on each side, which may drain to deck, overboard or to bilges. (4) A bridge space, or extended forecastle or poop, covering the waist of a ship with a single opening as in (3), requires scuppers only. These must be suitable in number (not less than two, one on each side), and not drain oni deck. (5) Scuppers draining on deck are practicable for forecastles or poops of ordinary length on ships of usual deck sheer, but not for bridges in the waist of the ship, where drainage must be overboard or to bilges. (6) Where the regulations prescribe scuppers in exempted spaces, including shelter decks, they are not to be less than 3-" in diameter, and must be kept clear at all times. However, to prohibit ingress of the sea the use of back (flapper) valves will be permitted. (7) Regulations as to height of coaming not in excess of 2 feet, and temporary means of closing tonnage openings n% ith rough boards in channels, or plates, are not affected. In order to afford a reasonable opportunity for compliance with the preceding requirements, enforcement at the Canal will not be made effective until September 1, 1929, except that any vessel transiting the Canal prior to that date, and subject to change of tonnage under the foregoing regulations, will be given but one oppor- tunity for compliance therewith.

Following recent reports to the effect that the American-Hawaiian Line, one of the principal intercoastal lines operating through the Panama Canal, had purchased the Williams Steamship Line (also an intercoastal line), local representatives of the former company have announced that the Williams Steamship Corporation, an entirely separate organization from The American-Hawaiian Steamship Company, by resolution and agreement has appointed the American- Hawaiian Steamship Company its operating managers. The Williams Line steamers Willhilo and Wiillsolo have been taken over by the American-Hawaiian Line and renamed the Arizonan and Georgian, respectively, and are now engaged in the run between the two coasts. The old American-Hawaiian steamer Georgian, renamed the San Gabriel, is now in the service of the Pacific-Atlantic Steamship Cor- poration. The following steamers are still in the service of the Williams Steamship Corporation: W1illboro, Vi.illpolo, I'illfaro, Willkeno, and Wilhlzipo. Correction. , In THE PANAMA CANAL RECORD of July 24, 1929, an error in printing occurred in the table on page 721, showing principal commodities from the Pacific to the Atlantic in June, 1929, as compared with June, 1928. The figure for lumber in June, 1928, shown as 248,643 tons, should have been 348,643 tons. Traffic by Nationality for July, 1929. The'following tabulation shows the commercial traffic through the Canal during the month of July, 1929, -classified according to nationality of vessels by direction of transit,' and the combined. traffic ifi both directions, together with the corresponding totals for July, '1928 and 1927: ATLANTrC TO PACIFIC.

All of the Panama Canal notices to mariners, notices to steamship lines, and general circulars of interest to shipping in its relation to the Capal are published in THE PANAMA CANAL RECORD. For this reason it is considered unnecessary to make a separate general distribution away from the Isthmus of such notices and circulars to those receiving Tfm PANAMA CANAL RECORD. Shipping interests are advised to look for them in this paper, which is supplied to them without charge. Current Net Prrcesron Fuel Oil, Diesel Oil, and Coal. Crude fuel oil is delivered to vessels at -either t:.Oistobal or Balboa, from tanks of The Panama Canal. for $1 .50 per barrel of 42 gallons.

For furnishing lImp coal for galley use. or run of mine coal, in sacks, $6.00 additional per ton; but if vessel fur- nishes sacks $3.00 additional per ton. Coal for cargo is sold only by special authority &f the Governor, at prices quoted upon applica- tion. For trimming on deck, between decks, or special trimming in bunkers for convenience of vessel, when requested, an additional charge of 90 cents per -ton will be made for extra handling. Deliveries of coal,to individual ships can be made up to 1,500. tpns per hour, as fast as it can be handled in the ship's bunkers.

S THE PANAMA CANAL RECORD Merchandise Shipped to Canal Zone for Orders. The Panama Railroad Company, a New York corporation, of which the stock is now owned by the United States Government, will ware- house" for orders" at its piers and warehouses at Balboa and Cristobat. Canal Zone, nonperishable and nondangerous merchandise, excepting alcoholic liquors. An illustrated pamphlet explaining in detail the arrangement may be had upon application to the Panama Railroad Co., Balboa Heights, C. Z., or 24 State Street, New York City. On general merchandise the rates are as fellows: (a) For handling cargo from ship's side to storage place, the customary inward local charge of $1 per ton. (b) For delivery or reforwarding, customary outward local charge of $1 per ton. (Total of 20 cents per ton more than regular transfer charge.) (c) For storage, 3 cents per ton per day, except that no charge will be made for the first 35 days. The Panama Railroad Company stores this cargo in four fireproof warehouses, 160 feet by 850 feet, at Cristobal, and in one of the same dimensions at Balboa. Cargo stored for orders can be reforwarded from the Isthmus-each carrier to col- lect its proportion of the through rate instead of the local. This means that should a shipment move from New York to the Canal Zone, it will of course pay regular local rate to Balboa or Colon, as the case may be-but should owner wish to reforward to, say, "Guayaquil," he can do so by paying the oncarrier's proportion of the through, rate. Upon evidence that the shipment or any part of it moved beyond the Canai Zone, the initial carrier will refund the difference between the through and local rate. Cargo intended for warehousing at Cristobal or Balboa should be so indicated on the bill of lading, thus "Cristobal for orders" or "Balboa for orders." When so con- signed it is not necessary for shippers to secure consular papers at original point of shipment, nor to have bills of lading consulted. Cargo consigned to Canal Zone for orders may be delivered in the Republic of Panama in which case it is necessary to prepare an invoice on which duties can be paid. When evidence of payment of duty is presented to the Canal Zone customs officers they will issue the necessary release and delivery can be taken in the usual way. For those on the Canal Zone who are allowed to import goods duty free the Panama Canal customs release is all that is necessary. For reshipment from storage to a foreign country the shipper takes out bill of lading, consular invoice and sobordo if necessary and cargo is forwarded as regular outward local. There are no special forms for use in shipping except the warehouseman's order to release the cargo for shipment ("Authority to Deliver Cargo from Storage on Piers)". Shipper takes out his bill of lading and consular invoice and the cargo moves as regular outward local. Samples of the forms used, "Negotiable Warehouse Receipt," and "Authority to Deliver Cargo from Storage on Piers," are shown in the pamphlet referred to above.

Z., has been notified by the Port Captain, *. Buenaventura, Colombia, as follows: On August 6th the Punta Soldado light will be in operation. Position: Lat. 3' 58' 03" N., Long. 770 11' 33" W. Characteristics: 0.5 sec. light, 4.5 sec. obscured; 12 flashes a minute. 2. The Master of the Royal Netherlands S. S. Boskoop reports on the harbor lights of Buenaventura, Colombia, on July 29, 1929: (a) The two red flashing light buoys, marking wreck of the S. S. Tritonia, are still in their former positions at the left bank of the River near the town. The wreck is marked by a fixed red light on the wreck itself, in clear weather visibility about half-a-mile. (b) The red flashing light buoy. position Lat. 3 49' 30" N., Long. 77* 10100" W.. marks a wreck and is on the starboard side while one steams down the River. (c) Between the port and Soldado Point are four light buoys showing a white flash, all inlineof each other, marking the north side of the Fairway. (d) About one mile easterly of Soldado Point my vessel struck a submerged object, giving a sound like a vessel passing over boulders. The pilot denies any obstructions there; the chart showed the depth of 8 to 9 fathoms, whereas my yessel was of 27 feet draft. -(e) A red flashing light buoy, position Lat. 3j 7' N., Long. 770 16' W., about I1 miles off the Vigia de San Pablo, exhibits a white flash. A short distance away from the buoy a drum (probably : an empty gasoline drum) was anchored on the spot. Possibly the buoy and drum mark some obstruction between them; however, no notice of this was given by the harbormaster of Buena- venura. .:: 3. The U. S. S. Cleveland gives the following report from recent soundings: On August 4th, 41 fathoms in Lat. 11 54' N., Long. 86' 56' W., where the chart shows 37 fathoms;. also 8, fathoms in Lat. 9' 12' N., Long. 84' 51' W., where chart shows 268 fathoms. 4. The Commanding. Officer of the U. S. S. Galveston reports that a careful exami- ..,nation of the locality in which the Army Transport Cambrai, Corinto Harbor approach, bi0aragua, is reported to have struck, disproves the existence of any danger to aaigtiiion.at thia point. The Hydrographic Office of the U. S. Navy therefore to (N~ M. 30, 1929) that the rock reported by the Cambrai as being in approxi- esitionE .120 15' N.,, 860 57' W., with a least depth of 41 fathoms, be removed .. the charts S- H.

ATLANTIC TO PACIFIC CARGO MOVEMENT. Origin.-Sixty-five and four-tenths per cent of the cargo tonnage .from the Atlantic to the Pacific originated, on the eastern and gulf seaboards of the United States, and 26.2 per cent in Europe. Cargo originating in the United States was 98,061 tons, or 19.7 per cent, greater than the tonnage from the United States in July, 1928, although the proportion of the total in July, 1929 (65.4 per cent) was slightly lower. Cargo from Europe showed a relative as well as an actual increase over the amount originating from that area in July, 1928, the actual increase amounting to 62,131 tons, or 35.2 per cent. Destination.-Forty-eight and two-tenths per, cent of the Pacific- bound cargo was destined to the United States; 18.4 per cent to Asia; 14.6 per cent to South America; and 13.6 per cent to Australasia. Tonnage to all these areas increased over the amounts destined to these regions in. July, 1928. To the United States, the increase was 108,700 tons, or 32.9 per cent; to South America, 36,701,tons, or 38.2 percent; to Australasia, 10,179 tons, or 9.0 per cent; and to Asia, 9,797 tons, or 6.2 per cent. The percentage of the total cargo to the United States and South America were also higher in July, 1929, as compared with :July, 1928, while the percentage to Asia and Australasia were both Sower in July of this year. PACIFIC TO ATLANTIC CARGO MOVEMENT. Origin.-Of the cargo moving in this direction 56.1 per cent came from the west coast of the United States; 25.6 per cent from South America; 8.3 per cent from Canada; 6.4 per cent from Asia; and 2.7 : per cent from Australasia. Cargo from all these areas, with the excep- -,tion of Canada, increased as follows over the amounts originating in .theseregions in July, 1928. From the United States, 80,797 tons, or .3 per cent; from South America, 33,054 tons, or 8.3 per cent; from Aia, 69,036 tons, or 172 per cent; and that from Australasia, 13,302 1r-s., .or ".42.6 per cent.

The percentage of the total from Canada in July, 1929, was considerably lower in July, 1929, as compared with July, 1928 (12.5 per cent). Destination.-Segregated according to destination, 61.8 per cent of the cargo in this direction went to the United States, and 32.5 per cent to Europe, these two destinations accounting for over 94 per cent of the cargo tonnage from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Tonnage to the United States increased 111,362 tons, or 11.9 per cent, over July, 1928, and that to Europe increased 54,950 tons, or 11.1 per cent. Cargo destined to both these areas showed slight increases in their relations to the total over July, 1928. PRINCIPAL COMMODITIES, ATLANTIC TO PACIFIC. From the cargo declarations submitted it was possible to classify 84.8 per cent of the total cargo in transit through the Canal from the Atlantic to the Pacific. The remaining 15.2 per cent consisted, for the most part, of manufactured articles in small lots reported as "General cargo." Pacific-bound commodities which aggregated more than 10,000 tons for July, 1929, or July, 1928, are listed in the following tabulation, showing differences. July, July, Commodity. Juy199 1928.

Ships of British registry ranked first in total number of vessels transiting and second in number of total transits, with 680 individual ships making 1,783 transits. Germany ranked third with 92 ships making 402 transits. The following table shows the number of individual ships, the fre- quency of transit per vessel, and total transits for the year, segre- gated by nationality: THE PANAMA CANAL RECORD NATIONALITY, NUMBER, AND TRANSITS OF VESSELS THROUGH THE PANAMA C&NAL, FISCAL 'EAR 1929.

The discharge of the Chagres River at Alhajuela was 31 per cent below the July average, or 1,926 c. f. s. compared with a 28-year average of 2,804 c. f. s. While this month's discharge exceeds the minimum July of record by about 700 c. f. s., it is comparable to the low July discharges of 1928 and 1923 and can be classed with our dry Julys of record. The total yield of the Gatun Lake watershed was 31 per cent below the 16-year July average, or 4,882 c. f. s. compared with an average of 7,060 c. f. s., and is one of the low July yields since the formation of Gatun Lake. Maximum and minimum total yields of record for July are 14,663 c. f. s. in 1927 and 2,677 c. f. s. in 1914, respectively. The lake varied from the minimum elevation of 83.90 feet on the 15th and 16th to the maximum of 84.82 feet on the 31st, averaged 84.21 feet, and ended at elevation 84.74 feet.

The steamer Dorothy Luckenbach, owned and operated by the Luckenbach Steamship Line in the United Statds intercoastal trade, transited the Canal from the Pacific to the Atlantic on September 10, 1929, with 10,000 tons of general cargo aboard, valued at approxi- mately $5,000,000. The principal item of cargo reported by the mas- ter of the vessel was 144 tons of raw silk valued at $3,000,000, loaded at Seattle for New York. Cargo Through Canal During August, 1929. On pages 94 and 95 of this issue will be found tables showing the origin and destination of cargo passing through the Canal in August, 1929. This cargo, segregated according to direction, as compared with August, 1928, and the differences, is shown in the following tabulatiorn: August, August, 1929. 1928. Difference. Long tons. Long tons. Long tons. Atlantic to Pacific............................... 858,661 752.508 +106.,153 Pacific to Atlantic........ .................................. 1,822,069 1,672,828 + 149,241 Totals......... ... ................................. 2,680,730 2,425,336 +255,394. As shown above, cargo tonnage from the Atlantic to the Pacific increased 106,153 tons over August, 1928, while that in the opposite direction gained 149,241 tons, making an increase in both directions over the corresponding month a year ago of 255,394 tons. ATLANTIC TO PACIFIC CARGO MOVEMENT. Origin.-Sixty-two and five-tenths per cent of the cargo tonnage from the Atlantic to the Pacific originated on the eastern and gulf seaboards of the United States, and 29.1 per cent in Europe. Cargo originating in the United States was 16,750 tons, or 3.2 per cent, greater than the tonnage from the United States in August, 1928, although the proportion of the whole tonnage in August, 1928, was greater (69.1 per cent). Cargo from Europe showed a heavy relative as well as an actual increase over the tonnage originating in that area in August, 1928, the actual increase amounting to 76,776 tons, or 44.3 4 per cent. Destination.-Forty-four per cent of the Pacific-bound cargo was destined to the United States; 20 per cent to Asia; 15.4 per cent to Australasia; and 14.1 per cent to South America. Tonnage to the United States, Australasia, and South America, increased 47,488 tons, or 14.3 per cent; 14,953 tons, or 12.8 per cent; and 18,130 tons, or 17.7 per cent, respectively, over the amounts destined to these areas in August, 1928. The percentage of the total cargo to the United States and South America was also somewhat higher last month than in August, 1928, while that to Australasia was approximately the same. Tonnage to Asia decreased 12,047 tons, or 6.6 per cent, under August, 1928. The proportion of the total cargo to this region also showed a marked decrease under August, 1928. PACIFIC TO ATLANTIC CARGO MOVEMENT. Origin.-Of the cargo moving in this direction, 58.7 per cent came from the west coast-of the United States; 27.9 per cent from South America; 7.3 per cent from Canada; 2.9 per cent from Australasia; and 2.0 per cent from Asia. Tonnage from the United States, South America, and Australasia, increased both relatively and in actual ton- .i TE PANAA CANAL ECOD THE PANAMA CANAL RECORD :' nage as compared with August, 1928. The actual increases amounted to 135,120 tons, or 14.4 per cent; 49,353 tons, or 10.7 per cent; and r. 7,938 tons, or 17.4 per cent, respectively. Increased shipments of : California mineral oils was primarily responsible for the increased tonnage from the United States, while increased nitrate and iron ore tonnage from South-America was the cause of the heavy increase from that area. Cargo from Canada and Asia decreased both relatively as well as in actual tonnage-the decreases amounting to 33,523 tons, or 20.2 per cent, and 20,852 tons, or 36.8 per cent. i Destination.-Segregated according to destination, 59.6 per cent of the cargo in this direction went to the United States, and 33.3 per cent to Europe, these two destinations accounting for about 93 per cent of the cargo tonnage from the Pacific to the Atlantic. Tonnage to the United States increased 198,458 tons, or 22.3 per cent, over August, 1928, while that to Europe decreased 50,748 tons, or 7.7 per cent. Cargo to the United States also showed an increase in its re- lation to the whole cargo tonnage, while that to Europe showed a decrease from 39.2 per cent*in August, 1928, to 33.3 per cent in August , of this year. Increased shipments of mineral oils, iron ore, and | nitrates, contributed largely to the high tonnage to-the United States.
