The difficulty, of course, is to see how the Suez Canal charges can be out down without hurting the feelings and the pockets of the French shareholders. It has been suggested that the British Government might allow a rebate of casal duos to British ships, but it would be very difficult fairly to reguisto a rebate satisfactorily.
The Liverpool Steamship Owners' Association, in discussing the "oonferenes" system in their sunasl report, bring ont some important facts. They show that upwards of three-fourths of the tot I foreign trade of Liverpool is carried on by regular fines of steamers, sailing at fixed dates to particular ports. Moreo or, the proportion is growing. It is pointed out that it is only possible for these linea to give regular seilfige and fixed rates of freight in return for reguler custom, and that the history of the port affords the means of judging whether or not it has been to the interests of the slippers of cargo to guarantee this regalar custom, or to take the chance of getting ships as and when they want their.

At the moment, new ventures of the same descrip tion, must be comparatively rare.
T'e young men in search of a career, the comparatively-now notion of training salvage officers at an early age, seems worth attention. In the past the practice has been to select "Iperienced

An impression bas grown up that British Colonies possess few steamship enterprises of nete. Such a view is certainly not borne out in the case of New Zealand, from which D misin there comes a report of the annual meeting of the Union Steamship Company. This Colonial organisation possesses a fleet of fifty-eight steamers, totalling 121,140 tons, and has five -other boss, of 2636 tous, either en route from or building in England.
