iug-up process, and that II they viii
assume all risks in carrying their ships
through, the service will be rendered
free Of charge. The canal authorities
oppose this proposition. asserting that
the necessary practice work can be done
in a few months with the craft or the
canal fleet itself They declare that
when then are once willing to allow q
operation will be as safe as at any sub
seqUent time, and that therefore there
is no reason for giving free service.
Prompt Action Urged.
The shipping interests Of the world
are urging prompt action in the fixing
Of rates so that they can make their
necessary dispositions. One firm IN
New York, which represents a service
engaging more than 100 steamers,
states that fl is very anxious to utilize
the opportunities afforded by the canal,
and must have many months notice as
to rates. Another large firm running
an important direct line Of steamers
from New York to British Columbia
parts, writes to the same effect The
United States Steel company says that
wherever the cost Of transportation IS
a material factor in placing IT. Every
part of the shipping world is anxiOusly
awaiting the fixing OF tolls so that the
question OF routes can be determined
and provision made in according there
with.
At the one dollar ton rate, the Panama
canal will be able to compete with the
Suez canal on a large proportion Of
the worlds lnter-OceaniC traffic. The
existing rate on the Suez canal is ap-
prOximately $50 a net vessel ton,
American British measurement. This
is rate of about IS cents a ton on
actual cargo weight. presumfng the ship
to be loaded to its average capacity
The rate on a ton of freight through
the Panama canal at the one dollar 4
ton, British measurement, would be As
cents. It viii be seem from this that
the Suez rate on the actual amount Of
goods handled is nearly double the
proposed rate Of one dollar a ton at
Panama.

LITTLE STORIES.


Lieutenant ShackletOn, in a happy
ana manly speech which he made in
reply to the toast Of his health by Mr.
Hefnemann at the dinner given by that
gentleman at the SavOy hotel, told an
interesting story Of pOltteness in the
untrodden regions Of the Antarctic
His party. he said, were always eX-
tremely gOOd-humored and polite, and
one professor in particular attained a
degree of politeness unusual under
such trying circumstances. Are you

TO another member Of the party who
was in the tent

The professor was found hanging
down a crevasse by his four fingers, a
position which he could not have occu-
pied for any length Of time.
The Language Puzzled Him.
A story is told OF a FrenChman who
was very anxious to see an American
business man at his home. The first
morning when he called at the house
the maid replied TO his query:
THE master is not down yet mean

The following morning he called
