(here's freight, that's where the tramp goes" applies, in a measure, to the pilgrim who steals his way on the cargo carriers of the steel rail, It was penned by some- one who had in mind the thousands of sturdy steam craft that are known on the seven seas as tramps. All vessels that do not ply on recular routes may be Maid lo Le tramps, and, while tramping may he looked upon with disfavor by those who live ashore, those afloat and th«. shipping interests hold the tramp ship in high favor. A manufacturer gets a latee order to deliver, say, at Tampico, Ifexii,' There are no regular freight ships plying «rom hi» nearest «-*."»* port. What dor«, he d".' He iel«graphs Of telephones to a ship broker at that port, and the agent charters a tramp steamer of the required cargo ca¬ pacity. And one may always, or neatly always. Imd a (ramp at the hinter (¡ties laid up waiting for »harter. The skipper of the tramp is the man with whom 10 talk. He does not care what the i arg., may be.fruit, oil in cat».», wheat, lumber, ties, dyamite or sinews of war for a re» oltitionary party in any p;»rt of the unrld-just so the price is in keepintt with the risk and the time required Among the calculations of the proposed revolution that certain dissatisfied patriota may be contemplating th*' question of transportation of their "army'' and stores M a minor one. for the members of the junta know that t«>r the price a tramp, steamer may be chartered. The risk to the owner'.' Oh, that's nothing if the price is rieht. During the Russo-Japanese War it was ommon to read of both the Japs and Rus¬ sians destroying steamers found to be car¬ rying contraband Th* owners of the. steamers were satisfied, for the men «vho chartered the vessels had paid enough freight money to justify the loss. As for th.« skipper and crew, if they escaped with i heir lives to enjoy their portion of the money paid, well anl good, if they went down, well, Is It not all in the business? The business of tramping is as old as ships, but it was developed to a high degree by the Yankee skippers of the early days of this country. In those days a young man returned from a voyage with a ratine of second or first mat" and a knowledge of navigation. He wanted a vessel of his own; so he organized a company on a slock basis. THE OLD STYLE TRAMP. With the ship In commission the captain's r»al work began, and when he slipped his moorings for a voysge be was going tramp¬ ing, although he called it 'trading.-' In his quest for e-argoes he did not bother »»here he might have to go, his only atlpu- j latlon being that he should have a return freight or a monetary consideration- Those were the days when trading B-a* not so prosaic as to-day. for the doughty skippers of sailing craft took all kimls of chance«, especially those who went over on the African coast, swapping beads, mir¬ rors, calico, knives and othet gimcracks for Ivory. Many of those* skippers were no! averse to "blackblrdlng." as running ¦laves was called, and many a cargo of blanks was run to the States, even after the British government started In to break DP slave trading. Just as soon as the procuring of blacks «a« difficult then the rewards were greater, as was the temptation, and many a »«.¦¦el that left her home port as a trader became a "hlackbirder." sometimes with profit and »omet i mes not. During tin- Civil War the tramp ¦hip ma«le üs appearance, lust as ¦ block¬ ade runner. In that business a sue voyage meant quick and ample returns, for the freights wer«* g« net ally worth more than the ships. One round trip paid for the. vessel; aft« r that it was all proflt It is t«> the tramp steamer that England o»v«*a her position as the fortm>oa1 maritime peiwer.

As the tramp carries her cauro at so much a ton only the restraining ha mi of Lloyds, the Insurance company, prevents much of the overloading that is something «>f a practice. In carrying coke, which i« light for its hulk, it is USUS] not only to rill the hold, but to build up huge wooden hexes on dock and till them. Lumber, too, '.- often piled high on dock. A new type of tramp ship is the turret. dcalgned to evade the tonnage tax. and although this type- 0f vessel does not ap- i-«-ar to be able to carry as much as an ordinary tjrpe of the same length, appear- ; n«es are deceptive.

TlM "hobo" of the sea is no relation to
th' Wear** Willie <>f tlM land, ami althoughthf old song of "Whareve. (here's freight,that's where the tramp goes" applies, in a
measure, to the pilgrim who steals his way
on the cargo carriers of the steel rail, It was
penned by some- one who had in mind thethousands of sturdy steam craft that are
known on the seven seas as tramps.All vessels that do not ply on recular
routes may be Maid lo Le tramps, and, while
tramping may he looked upon with disfavor
by those who live ashore, those afloat andth«. shipping interests hold the tramp shipin high favor. A manufacturer gets a latee

whom 10 talk. He does not care what thei arg., may be.fruit, oil in cat».», wheat,lumber, ties, dyamite or sinews of war fora re» oltitionary party in any p;»rt of theunrld-just so the price is in keepintt with
the risk and the time requiredAmong the calculations of the proposed

transportation of their "army'' and stores
M a minor one. for the members of the
junta know that t«>r the price a tramp,steamer may be chartered. The risk to theowner'.' Oh, that's nothing if the price is
rieht.During the Russo-Japanese War it was
ommon to read of both the Japs and Rus¬
sians destroying steamers found to be car¬
rying contraband Th* owners of the.steamers were satisfied, for the men
«vho chartered the vessels had paid enoughfreight money to justify the loss. As for th.«
skipper and crew, if they escaped with
i heir lives to enjoy their portion of the
money paid, well anl good, if they went
down, well, Is It not all in the business?The business of tramping is as old as
ships, but it was developed to a high degreeby the Yankee skippers of the early daysof this country. In those days a youngman returned from a voyage with a ratineof second or first mat" and a knowledge of
navigation. He wanted a vessel of his
own; so he organized a company on a slock
basis.
THE OLD STYLE TRAMP.With the ship In commission the captain's
r»al work began, and when he slipped hismoorings for a voysge be was going tramp¬
ing, although he called it 'trading.-' In
his quest for e-argoes he did not bother»»here he might have to go, his only atlpu- jlatlon being that he should have a return
freight or a monetary consideration-Those were the days when trading B-a*
not so prosaic as to-day. for the doughtyskippers of sailing craft took all kimls of
chance«, especially those who went over
on the African coast, swapping beads, mir¬
rors, calico, knives and othet gimcracksfor Ivory. Many of those* skippers were
no! averse to "blackblrdlng." as running
¦laves was called, and many a cargo of
blanks was run to the States, even after
the British government started In to break
DP slave trading.Just as soon as the procuring of blacks
«a« difficult then the rewards were greater,as was the temptation, and many a »«.¦¦elthat left her home port as a trader became
a "hlackbirder." sometimes with profit and
»omet imes not.During tin- Civil War the tramp
¦hip ma«le üs appearance, lust as ¦ block¬
ade runner. In that business a sue
voyage meant quick and ample returns, for
the freights wer«* g« net ally worth more
than the ships. One round trip paid forthe. vessel; aft« r that it was all proflt
