it is not to le wondered at that she received no sup- port. For London the new Nippon Yuren Kaisha line threatens serious (pposition, but with tranship- ment in Hongkong, and another month of the cur- rent Conference year still to run, it is improbable that she will seriously affect Conference steuners' interests just for the present, though it seems likely that a lower scale of rates will exist during the con- ing season. For London riâ: Suez.-A regular line of service continues to Le maintained by the Confer- ence Lines, but there is very little freight offering and departing steaners have little to boast of in the quantity of cargo carried by them. For New York ria Suez.-Cargo is exceptionally scarce and prospects of any material improvement during the next few weeks seem somewhat remote. For New York rid Cape.-The T. F. Oakes is practically ready to load, but prospects of her receiving much cargo from here are poor, and the rate asked, viz.:-13s., does not sceni to Le any inducement to shippers, low as it may There is no demand for further chartering, appear. though a convenient vessel is now here open for em ployment.
