COLD STORAGE PROBLEM.

RECEIVING ATTENTION IN INDIA AND

·CHINESE SKIPPING CIRCLES.

. The London correspondent of the Briming. kam Daily Pest states that the problem of cold storge on the India and Chioa roules in recèir- ing serious attention in shipping circles. According to hit s'atement, the problem will probably be tackled in the first instance. experimentally with some of the steameis trading with Bombay. As these vessels already possess a refrigerating plant, the extension of the pipe system to an enclosed section of the cargo space offers no technical difficulties, bat new ships will desbiless be designed with cold storage accom" odation as a matter of course. It is said that the freight earned by the South

Africas and South American services upon the carriage of fresh fruit is £ó and £7 per ton respectively. The produce mentioned likely In be brought on the homeward voyage includes Chinese pɔsk and Dumbiy mangoes. For the outward voyage there would be a market in Asiatic ports for apples and other fruits.

FOR stealing six pieces of slac worth zo cents from a lighter in Kowloon Bay, a coolie was giron four days' hard labour in the Police Court this morning.
