10 the Orient.

To Japan, Siberia, China and the
Philippine islands the traffic through
the canal from the Atlantic cost of
the United States during recent months
has. exceeded in tonnage the cargoes
one way on any other of the routes
named, with the exception of the ship
ments from the West coast of South.
America to the United States.
The principal lines operating in this
service are the American and Oriental
line, the Barber line. Shewan Tones
& Co. and Alfred Holt & Co. Between
these companies a vessel comes to the
Canal about once every ten days from
New York. The American and Man
churian company (known also as the.
Ellerman & BucknalD has a vessel at
the Canal about once in three weeks.
The Nippon Yusen Kabushika, Kaisha
has fine vessel at the Canal approxi-
mately every two weeks in each direc-
ton. Messrs. Norton, Lily & Co. have
ships in this far Eastern service at the
Canal at irregular intervals, but ap-
proximately once a month.
The Monmouth inquirer., 1917-02-08
To Australia.

To Australia and New Zealand the
United States and Australia line OPP.
crates a vessel between New York and
New Zealand and Australia about once
a month. The Ellerman lines have a
service from New York to the same
ports, but with Irregular leaving dates.
The Luckenback line also has sery-
ice between New York and Australia.
The Federal Steam Navigation cons
pany, New Zealand corporation, has
Il vessel between New York and New
Zealand every six weeks. In addition
TO these boats the American-Australian
and The Commonwealth and Dominion
lines serve the same trade area with a
vessel about every fourth week.
That there is no United States coast
wise trade through the Canal, the
Worlds correspondence from here has
made as clear as that even for sailing
vessels the Canal makes the voyage be-
tween the east and west coasts of the
United States one that is very cheap.
Prior TO the high freight rates which
the European war has caused the
American-Hawaiian company was ship
ping Hawaiian and West coast prod
ucts to New York and other Eastern
cities at a great profit. The American
Hawaiian ships have found it more
profitable to abandon this coastwise
traffic to carry nitrates to and gen
eral freight from Europe.
