German Shipping Dividends Two of the big German' steam- abip companies have not declared thoir dividends for the year 1912. The Hamburg-American Line pays 10 per cent, ne against 9 per cont. for 1911. Its affiliated enterprsie, the Hamburg South American Company, is to distri bute 14 por cont, as compared with 10 percent. for 1911 and 8 per cant, for 1910. It looks as though trade with South America has been quite exceptionally profita ble. The Hamburg-Americau Line could easily have paid a higher dividend, as the Gormem Bourses expected. But a large appropriation has been made to cause of the uncertainty of the reserve, first, it is explained, be political situation, and, secondly to provide means, if necessary. for avoiding new competition. This is an enigmatic praise, which may mean much or little. It may for instance, have some relation to the Canadian Pacific Railway Company's Trieste concession: For some time paat the Hamburg- American Company has had its special defence fund'ready against contingencies, such as rate ware.
