Japanese Shipping Market,

The charter rate. for ocean- going steamers has been steadily advancing recently, SATs the Japan Chronicle of April 12, Up to a few days ago this year's highest rate for American service was Y41. but now a far higher record has been made. two newly built steame s of 6,800 tons and 2,000 tons having been chartered each at Y45 for one outward. voyage to the United States... These two vessels are to be eventually supplied to America in connection with the repent agreement reached whereby the Japanese shipbuilders are to offer 100.000 tons of shipping in return- for the sme tonnage of American sipbuilding materials, Along with the advance in the charter

rate the price of vessels han also bren tending upwards. The Kobe Piet Company has contracted to buy a steamer of 8,470 tons gross now building at the Mitsubishi Shipyards, at Y850 per ton. This: is the highest price on record. The steamer, is to be completed in November next, and is of the Somedono-maru type. Recently the Osaka Shosen Kisba bought a similar steamer at 1825, "so that the price of the Mitsubishi steamer shows an advance of $725.

The vessels to be produced will ba m dern steel cargo, steamers of the most approved types for the use of the Government: and for registry in Canada. The pro- ductive capacity of Canadian yards, which at present are engaged in the construction of ships for the British Government, for Inçal interests and for foreign accout-thel-stmenijonedbring alm st exclusively for Nowegian restry may be reckimed at from 275,000 to 2800 tons annually. During the continua: ting of the war, and for some time thereafter, the sonstruction o steel ships in Canadian yards for frelen registry will not be permitted.
