ENGLISH FIRM HIT HARDEST.
Those Flour shipments seized at Dell
agon bay.

ngon bay.
New York, Dec. 30.-It now appears
that the firm that had the largest ship
ments of flour consigned to Delagoa
bay on the three vessels of which the
cargoes We're recently seized by the
British authorities, is an English con-
Germ. Arthur May & Co., of Bristol,
which has a large branch Office in this
city. The firm had on board the three
ships which We're seized about 2S,O00
bags of flour consigned to Lourenzo
Marquee. The agent here will not say
whether the flour was intended for ul-,
innate shipment from Lourenzo Mar
quez to the Transvaal. but he has not
up to the present made any represen-
tations to the state department, as
have most of the other firms who have
goods seized. Manifests of the three
vessels show they carried the usual
class of goods shipped to South AZ
rican ports, although the proportion of
flour was made much larger than usual.
1T is tacitly admitted by the Ameri-
can firms whose goods had been seized
that the large proportion was intended
for the Beers. A member of one firm
declared that there was a Very large
local trade in Lourenzo Marquee. Con-
signments to Delagoa bay We're all.
shipped at consignees' risk, and they
cannot therefore claim damages from
the American firms for non-delivery.
Steamship owners are also protected
from similar damage suits, as a clause
in the shipping agreements provides
that they are not responsible for "un-
foreseen events. In spite of this it Is
stated that a large proportion of goods
shipped to firms in Lourenzo Marquee
was paid for before it left this coun-
try. The uncertainty in every direc-
ton consequent on the war made ship
ping concerns in America careful. and
most of them refused to transact bust
ness except on cash before delivery
terms. People in Delagoa bay are,
therefore. the real sufferers. particulars
~ as that city is now full of refugees
from the Transvaal district and prices
have gone up for everything.

desired to keep the matter quiet, but
that at a banquet of the Scranton, Pa,

received a Christmas gift of the above
