RIVAL STEAMSHIP
LINE NOW ABANDONED
CHINESE IN SCHEME REPORTED
TO HAVE BEEN ADVISED NOT
TO BUCK COMPANIES.

The movement which had been start
ed some weeks ago to organize "a rival
steamship company to the two COM
panies now operating seems likely TO
fail, The scheme originated among
a number Of Chinese merchants and for
time, 1t looked as if the thing might
produce some effective results Later
Investigation on the part Of some Of
the Chinese merchants has led them to
conclude that they do not care to be
parties to any attempt to buck the
two strong organizations In fact sew
eral Of the men who were prominent
in starting the new company are said
to have Withdrawn under pressure.
1t is claimed that certain Chinese
merchants indebted to interests more
or less connected with the regular
steamship companies, were notified by
the latter not to try to buck the old
established companies or else the cree
dit that the Chinese desired, might be
Withdrawn. The threats which The
Chinese say were made against them
neoesstated their acquiescing In pre-
sent conditions and abandoning the at
tempt to organize an opposition COM
