Whereas competition has for the time being benefited trade between the two countries and enabled articles like Indian pig iron and various Japanese commodities to find a market which they could not have done had it not been for the chesp rates of freight ruling on this line, it has undoubtedly cansed some loss to the companies as far a8. this particular service is concer ned, and it has also brought about a certain amount of friction in connection with the general question of coasting trade, for, as is well known, the Japanese ships are enabled to carry passengers and cargo between Indian porte: while the British company cannot do no between Japanese porta.
