The board wants a guarantee that it make at least soven sailings a year. The Chapman-Dollar-Dawson combination has asked for a minimum of five. The big ship has proved ex- pensive to run and hard to fill in de- pressed times. Payment Question Up. The third point concerns the amount and manner of payment for outstand- ing mortgages held by the board of the | ships of the line. The board hopes to get more than the $3,170.900 alread: offered by Chapman and his backe: and perhaps as much as the $3.500, 000 bid by the International Mercan- tile Marine-Roosevelt Steamship Co. The board also expects to ask that the sum be paid in cash. eliminating the phrase “or its equivalent.” Board members raid no word had been recefved from the I. M.
