ALLOTMENTS MADE,
But No One Knows How the Stock Iias
Been Distributed.

London, April 21.-The aliotments of
stock in the new shipping corporation
We're all taken up by British members
of the syndicate at noon, today. What
proportion was given to Europe, the
Morgans decline TO announce, but evil
IDENTIFY it was not nearly so large as de-
sired by the British interests. P. Pier
pont Morgan is now in Paris.
From other members of the firm The
Associated Press learns that the ship
pins corporation will be run almost
exactly on the same lines as the United
States Steel Corporation, each branch
retainging it's individuality, but being
subject to the control of the directing
body. The statements intended for the
stockholders Of the new corporation
regarding earnings, management, etc,
will be issued by method similar to
the one now employed by the Steel
Corporation.
Regarding the detection of the Cum
ard, Allan, Anchor and French Steam
ship Lines the Morgan views are as
follows: 1t remains to be seen wheth-
er they will come in. We think it is
rather good thing, in some. respects
not to get everybody in at the begin
ing, the idea being that the present
combine is quite big enough to start
with and it is better to get it down to a
practical, working basis before being
too anxious to make a clean sweep"
Anent the possible refusal OF British
and continental shareholders to ratify
the directors action, The Associated
Press is authoritatively informed that
no such contingency is possible, as the
corporation already owns controlling
financial interest in each line and so
far no indications of discomfort on the
part of the shareholders over the pros
rectiye conversion of their present Sc
eurities have been noticed.
What is called the "Morga niZing" of
the greater section of the Atlantic fer
~ is causing considerable perturbation
in Great Britain. The Westminster
Gazette suggests that it may be enti-
tied to the grave attention of the gov
eminent as in some quarters it is in
sisted that the vital interests OF the
empire in time of war may be jeopardi-
Zed by the new arrangement" and al
most in the same breath the paper reit-
crates the argument used when the
combination was first mooted, that it
would be a powerful peace factor be-
tween America and Great Britain for
The great American financiers would
find it to their own interests to use
their influence against war between
the two countries.
The Pall-Mall Gazette thinks the ar
rangement gives the United States an
enormous pull on the Atlantic and that
it is not creditable to Great Britain
that English steamship lines should be
dominated by Americans.

AMERICAN SUPREMACY
Brings Home Some Unpleasant Truths
to the British Minds.

London, April 22.-The Morning pa
pers discuss the shipping combination
with considerable difference of opinion.
While the Daily Graphic and the
Daily Mail display comparatively I'M
concern in the matter, the Graphic say
ing that beyond increasing rates and
perhaps, checking the growing speed
and luxury of the Atlantic passage, the
committee win have little effect, the
Daily Chronicle and the Daily News
see the utmost danger ahead and anx-
iously warn the British public to be-
ware. -
The Chronicle, emphasizing the ire
mendous economic difficulty facing the
nation in the growth of gigantic mo-
nopolies against which even forceful
man like President Roosevelt is prac-
tically helpless, declares the shipping
combination sis menace, almost, to
our national position and points out
three grave considerations.
The first is that the supremacy of the
British mercantile marine is practical
ly annihilated.
The second is that there is good rea-
son to believe that the Morgan party
was forced into the shipping business
in order TO save their other undertake
ings and that over-capitalization may
some day bring collapse which
would seriously involve the British
trade: while the third consideration the
Chronicle declares to be still more
nnornentous, though it believes it to be
infinitely moro remote.

paper. What would be England's

BOSTON CRITICISM
viii Probably Have Very Little
Weight with Morgan.

Boston, April 21.-The question of the
effect OF the big transatlantic steamship
deal is being discussed by persons in
terested directly or Indirectly in the COM
merce of the city. The omission of the
Cunard Co. from the list of companies
taken into the combination was noted
with surprise in some quarters.
Whether or not the Cunard Co. decides
to enter into the combination may mean
a good deal to Boston. but a majority OF
the steamship people in this city think
that it eventually will go in.
That the formation of the new combna-
ton, dictated as it undoubtedly is, by
the great American railroad interests
represented by the Morgan contingent
viii have little adverse effect upon the
business of Boston is generally conceded
Taht. on the other hand, it will have a
stimulating influence is seriously doubted
by some. who see in the new deal merely
general equalizing scheme for tonnage
and rates, in which the interest of no
particular port will be cared for, as
against competing ports.

GERMAN LINES ARE IN.
They Are Satisfied but Press Does Not
Favor Scheme.

Berlin, April 21.-The general terms nm
der which the German steamship compa-
MES have Joined the international slim
combination are understood to be as fol-
lows:
First, the German lines are to have
such represe ntation on the board of con-
trol as TO prevent their being outvoted
by the Anglo-American interests. The
German companies will thus preserve
their independence and viii no more be
controlled by their associates than they
Will control them.
Second. pro rata distribution of
profits, according to tonnage, will be
made
Third. the German companies are to
snare in the advantages derived from
Whatever agreements the combination
makes with American railroads.
Besides these principles which broadly
outline the basis Of the contract under
which the union of the German lines is
brought about. reports of other ideas. less
easily understood. are in circulation
These are based upon seemingly authori-
tat1Ve information. One of these reports
IS that 1t is the purpose of the allied
INES tnat the management of the combi-
nation shall consist of three groups of
which the Hamburg-American Steam
Packet Co. and the North German Lloyd
Line shall count two and the Anglo
American lines for one.
The future working of the combination
appears to be provided for by system
which is largely automatic, thus avoid
ing the possibility of conflict in manage
ment.
The newspapers, for the most part. dis
cuss the steamship agreement adversely.
