Through Canal Traffic, Annoucement has been made✨ by the Panama Canal Commit aign that hereafter copies of the manifesta of ships' osrgoes will not be required of resols using the canal when engaged in through traffio. The reasons for this action were given as follows: "Because of objections advanced s by the steainship companies, and for the further reason that the compilation of dotsiled statintion from manifeste would require a large clerical fores and involve considerable exponto it has been decided that venaola in transit through the canal will not be required to furnish copies of their manifeste, but that, instead, the practice of the Suez Canal, where the vanaal is required to submit only the most important items, will be followed, which plan is to be incorporated in the revised custom regulations. Duplicate manifests will still be required for asrgo landing in the oanal £96.18.zone, exaspting cargo discharged
