SHIPPING INTERESTS
AWAIT FURTHER DATA
REGARDING CANAL TOLLS

Shipping interests in the city are
anXiously waiting to get more data on
the Panama canal toll rates. The
expressed determination of President
Wilson to oppose exempting Ameri-
can coastwise shipping from a canal
charge. which position he takes be-
cause OF the Hay -Pauncefote treaty,
has brought up several interesting
questions in connection with the use
of the canal by steamers carrying
Hawaiian sugar.
C. P. Morse, general freight agent
IN charge of the Americana Hawaiian
Steamship Companys interests here,
does not believe that the imposition
of a toll for American coastwise ships
using the canal will work much of a
hardship on local shippers.
"Fhe rate will not be high" he
said today. eff it is dollar ton it
will mean that that sum will be add
ed to the freight charge. But the saw
ing to the shipper through the use of
the canal will more than make up for
the toll charge"
John Drew of Castle & Cooke,
agents for the Matson Navigation
Company, did not wish to express an
opinion on the subject The sugar
carried by the Matson vessels is sent
direct to San Francisco and hence the
canal will not be used by those ships.
At the time the [Iay7Pauncefote
treaty was being entered into,
strong objection was made by the Pa
cifc Mail steamship Company and
other navigation companies, against
the provision for the equalization Of
the tolls charged against ships of all
countries.
The treaty reads that the canal
shall be open to vessels of commerce
and war of all nations on terms of
entire equality SO that there shall be
no discrimination in respect to condi
tons or charges of traffic

ships carry the bulk of the sugar
