National Seamen's Act. As a result of the provisions of the National Seamen's Ast, which becomes effective for American Yousels on Nov. 4 next the Pacifio Mail Steamship Company may have difficulty in maintaining ita Traze-Pacific service to Honolulu, Ohina, and Japan. The Aot provides that ships cannot wail from American porta unless 75 per cent. of the crew speak the language of the country whose fing abe carries. The Act pro vents the employment of Oriental labour to compete with vessels flying the Japanese flag, and will probably affect all American ships in the Oriental trade, Eastern and Australian Steamship
Co.
Another abipping concern which has been able to recoup itself for previous indifferent years out of the recent high freights is the Eastern and Australian Steamship Company says the Financial Times. The gross profit Iset year was $40,800, as against £39.800, and the net profit, after Taising the depreciation allowance from $14.700, to £19,200, comes out at $6,900, as compared with $6,100, Following on a consider. able an of bad lack the company re-entered the list of dividend payers in 1913 with a distribution of 6 par cent., and this rate is now ~ rained to 8 per cent.
