SHIPPERS RISKS.
RADICAL CHANGES IN SHIPPING LAWE
Importers and exporters for the United States sto very much concerned over the effect of the new law relating to the nld time querion between shippers and carriera. The new law went into effect on July 1st. The bill was enacted into a law doring the closing days of the last Congress, and as the time approaches for it to take effect, maritime lawyers and the shipping world in several have been discussing with great interest, the bearing of the various paris of the bill to one another.
The act is entitled "An act relating to naviga- tion of vessels, bills of lading and to certain obligations, duties and rights is connection with the carriage of property." The new law is of great importance to owners of vessels and to shippers of merchandise, and the views of Mt. Shipping List of that city, who has been Rebert D.

It would be a good thing to elevate the 400,000,000 in China to a higher plane of thought in religious and other mailers, but the nation becomes ridiculous when the price to be paid is taken into account. The parties who are engaged in the curious business of swapping off bome concerns for those of a foreign land would stand better before the critical and educated world If they had given any proof of the fall that is in them.
The prospect of the conversion of the 400,000,000 of China to modern modes of thought,,would be regarded as more hopeful if by these enthusiasts at bome.
