NEW York, Sept. "a.
The competition between the Ma
tional and Gunard lines for the Boston
trade has resulted in a dissolution of
the steamship conference and the cut
ting down of Storage passage rates.
Some lines have not fixed their rates,
low as Sl3. The Philadelphia line is
said to he selling as low Is 2ll for pas
sage to Liverpool. Freight rates are
not affected by the controversy.
The Assistant United States District
Attorney, who went to Europe last
Spring TO obtain evidence against inn
porters in the case of importationS at
an alleged under valuation, has re-
turned. He says he found the German
Government inccnsed against this
Government, because, as was thought,
it had issued u commission TO its Con
suls in Europe authorizing them to
cite importers before them for the pur-
pose of eNtortiny information re-
speeding invoices made out in Europe.
Acting upon that supposition tie Ger
man Government has informed the
American Legation at Berlin if the
Consuls of this Government attempted
to execute these commissions, their
exequaturs would be revoked.
According to a correspondent of the
London Times, who has recently trav-
elled through the seat of war, the Carl
lists now have $4,000 men in the field.
This correspondent has nothing but
praise for The moral and physical
quantities of these soldiers and their
officers. He says they are often mem
bers of the most noble and best fami-
lies in Spain, highly educated and with
much professional knowledge.
