WILL RUN NEW FREIGHT SHIP
FROM HERE TO NEW ENGLAND
Service to Be Increased to Relieve
Congestion in Port

The Merchants and Miners Transports
tion Company will run special freight
steamship to New England ports, sail
ing for the first time tomorrow night.
in order that the freight congestion in
this city, the greatest in its history, may
be at least partly relieved.
The action of the steamship company
is the result Of the efforts OF the Phila-
delphia Chamber of Commerce, through
the chairman OF its Transportation COM
mittee william A. Sproull by whom the
announcement was made today.
As a consequence, the Parthian will
be run between Philadelphia and New
England ports as long as the freight con-
geston warrants It. Much OF the con-
geston Is due to the great quantity of
cotton being shipped from Southern
states to New England through this port.
