Rickmers Lino Ready for the Coming Battle. According to an Ostasiatischer Lloyd telegram, dated Berlin, July 14, the East Asistio. Ship- ping Conference, meeting at Paris, has decided to continue to fight the Rickmers Line. The agents in China of the Rickmers people-Messrs. Diederichsen & On,were recently interviewed on the subject. The China Press was informed that, although the meeting in Paris was not supposed to take place until the 8th prox., it was quite probable that such a decision had already been made.

It was pointed out, however, that the prime movers in such a decision would be the Hamburg-

scher Lloyd-who wish to reserve for themselves the increasing outward trade from Germany; rather than the British, French, and Japanese members of the Conference. It was further stated that, in all probability, the Biokmere Line will eventually be invited to join the Couforence; but that the company, in view of ita strong financial position, is indifferent as to whether it is in

or out of the Conference. The Rickmera Line, according to the last balance sheet, is in a very strong position and commands very large reserve fands. These facts are admitted by the British, as well as the German, presa. As is well known, the Rickmers Line is a family concern, and it was only owing to a difference be tween some of the members of the family that it became known that the financial position of the company is even, stronger than is revealed by the balance sheet. In the last balance sheet the reserves amount to about 50- per cent. of the capital and all the properties, buildings, and in- stallations of the shipbuilding yards in Bremerhaven, have a value of several million marka, but have been written down to one mark, or practically nothing. The opposition brought forward at the shareholders' meeting reveals the fact that the extrajne reserves provide another total of eight million marks, so that, instead of paying s dividend of

The directors of the company admitted quite frankly that those reserves, did exist, but that in view of the coming fight with the Conference lines, anch reserves were highly necessary, in order that the company might view the position with equan imity, and still be in a position to continue the payment of the customary dividends. The agents remarked that, as the Rickmers. Line possessed a "fighting" fund of about 10 million marks, lively times might be expected. They further commented on the foot that as the Conference lines were not backed by large running contracts from Siberian porta-raa is the onse with, the Rickmers Line their losses must soon renoh an enormous total.
