THE LINES INVOLVED.
WHITE STAR, LEYLAND AMERICAN AND
RED STAR SAID TO BE IN SCHEME.

London. April 19-"The Daily Telegraph this
morning announces that prolonged negotiations
have resulted IN a new combination among the
steamship lines involving change Of hass
and little change in management.
The lines involved are the White Star, the
Dominion the Leyland. the Atlantic Transport,
the American and the Red Star lines. The joint
control of these amalgamated companies. says
The Daily Telegraph" will be practically IN
the hands of the same men who guide their
separate deetinies the intention being to reduce
working expenses to avoid ruinous competition
and to secure harmonious working relations
with the great American railways. THE Tele-
graph continues
We understand the hearty cooperation of the
North German Lloyd Line and the Hamburg
American Steam Packet Company Is also as
sured. These lines VIII. by working agree
rnent, enter into q harmonious community Of
interests and cooperation while sttH maintain
ing their absolute identity and nationality.
THE Telegraph" in an editorial article on
this subject. views with great satisfaction the
fact that under this new arrangement British
shipping will be exempt from the handicap Of
bounties and the establishment of preferential
rates by American railways. The paper says
We shall be spared a Of British against
American capital. or. what would be far worse
commercially and politically. war Of bounties
between the two governments. These very
considerable gains. which will outweigh any OBJ
jections the scheme. which has a monopolistic
flavor about il.
The names of those responsible for this new
departure will aay alarm to any possibility
OF squeezing out British shipping and ship
building interests.
