JAPS HIT BRITISH TRADE.
NiPponesc Company May Get In
dian Cotton Business.

British shipping men are a bit anxious
over the decision Of the Japanese COM
pany. Nippon Yusen Kaisha, to establish
steamship company service to New
York and other American ports by way
CT the Panama Canal.
The Japanese boats will call regularly
at Gulf of Mexico ports and take on
cotton. which will reduce the quantity of
the staple which Japan takes from India.
IL will probably also affect the sale of
both British and American cotton fabrics
ia China.
Moreover. 1t is believed that the cheaper
import of cotton from the United States
will unable japanese merchants to place
their goods on the Indian market at
lower figure than at present and thus
render competition with the British ex-
porters more acute.
