Commodity Rates.
With the Nippon Yuson Kaisha making a cut in the westbound commodity rates and with the Blus Funnel line rondy to meet all cuta, a genoral rate war among the transpacific stoainship lines is anticipated by the Trans-Pacific papers: The hardest fight will probably he taude on flour. Tho Hill interpretation of the ruling of the Interstate Commerce Com- mission, on account of which vory little through westbound freight is boing handled by the lines operat ing in connection with the Hill systom, is believed to be respon- sible. The lines affected are the Blue Fine! Bino, the Osaka Shosen Kaisha, the Bank, the Nippon Yusen Kaislin, the Great
Northern Steamship Company, the Canadian Pacific Railway Company, the Portland Asiatic] Storaship Company, the Pacific Mail Steamship Company and the Toyo Kison Kaisha,
