Shipping Between Europe
and the United Kingdom

LONDON, Sept. 2e.-Proposals that
United States vessels participate in
regular trade between the United King
dom and the European continent we've
discussed at an important meeting in
this city yesterday, according to The
London Times. Thi s sea traffic is de-
clared to be extensive at present, and
engaged in it are British, French, Ital-
ian, Dutch, Norwegian, Japanese, Dam
ish, Swedish and Russian East Asiatic
companies.
Various representatives of steamship
lines expressed entire approval Of
United States ships entering the trade
on equal terms, but some little diff
Guilty is anticipated owing to the fact
that all ships practice what is known
as the rebate system, which is illegal
in the United States. The rebate ques-
tion was left over for further con-
sideration by American shipping au-
thorities.
These proposals." says The Times,
"are especially interesting as indicat-
ing a desire on the part Of United
States shipping authorities that the
American mercantile marine should
take part in regular worldwide ship
ping service, as we'll as that to and
from United States ports"
Three lines of Shipping Board owned
vessels and one or two privately owned
lines now are engaged in trade out
Of the United Kingdom to other than
United States ports, it was learned
here yesterday.
This was brought out on the report
from London that entry Of United
States ships into United Kingdom
European Continental trade on equal
terms was being discussed at London
with approval of steamship lines.
The Shipping Board now has an ir-
regular service from Manchester to
the west coast of Africa; line from
North China and Japan to European
ports, and another from Europe calling
at Manila. An additional service from
Dutch East Indies to Europe is being
ARRANGED il was said

Runs ON Boston
Banks Declared
Result of Plot
Heads of Two Trust Com
panies Charge Rivals
Conspired to Ruin Them;
One Threatens Expose

Special Dispatch to The Tribune
BOSTON, Sept 29.--Oficials of two
Boston trust companies charged to-day
that recent runs on their institutions
were the result Of plots to injure them.
One of the officials was Simon Swig,
vice-president of the fremont Trust
Company. which Monday declared q
three months moratorium on withdraw
ais from it's savings department. The
other was an officer of the Fidelity
Trust Company, which was closed Tues
day morning at the hour of opening,
the sixth bank to be closed here in re-
cent weeks.
Swig tainted while comforting with
Joseph c. Allen, State Bank Commits
sioner, at the latter's Office to-day and
doctor was summoned. Later Swig
said he knew of the existence Of zone
of the biggest bank plots in the coun-
try" and added that he would expose
the plot and its originators at a mass
meeting next week.
According to Swig tho expose will
rock financial foundations.
within few days, when the situa-
ton clears up, I shall hire Mechanics
Hall to expose one of the greatest plots
ever known in this country" Swig said.
This plot is responsible for the finan-
cial situation that has developed in this
city. Ponzi had nothing to do with
bringing about this situation. II is a
case Of business rivalry, q case Of the
lion eating up the lamb; it is deliberate
murder.
II told the Bank commissioner to-
day that had received every courtesy
from him, but could not say the same
for some of his examiners"
Mr.. Swig charged that bank exam
iner aided in an alleged attempt last
year to drive him to the wall.
Asked about the ninety-day suspen-
sion of payments in his savings depart
ment, Mr. Swig said he didn't intend
to have it remain long"
The Fidelity Trust Company officials
said the run on their bank was insti-
gated by certain powerful interests"
which, he said, had conspired to drive
the bank out Of business. The bank
issued this statement:
MONDAY before opening we deposit
cd $1,200000 in gilt-edge securities to
meet our clearances Of the day. In
less than twelve hours we were order
ed to close our bank. There was a
substantial balance from our clearings
and our officers pledged their personal
fortunes to guarantee whatever other
sums might be needed to meet our
were denied permission to reopen. 1t
was late at night, SO that we were
unable to meet the situation as we
could have met it had we had notice
early in the day that additional funds
were required.
"The whole thing was a deliberate
attempt to wreck the bank, which is
absolutely sound. The law should give
us redress against such criminals"
Bank Commissioner Allen later an
nounced that the bank situation in this
city was now very reassuringo and
that the closing of no more banks was
in sight. Mr.. Allen declared that the
fremont Trust Company (Mr. Swig's
bank) was "all right"

Japanese Discriminate
Against U. S. Shipments
Government Receives Reports
of Excessive Charges and
Delay at Kobe

WASHINGTON. Sept. 20. - The
American GbNe ernmcnt is in possession
of reliabte bteEsreports Of Japanese pro-
cedure at Kobe amounting TO discrimi-
nation against American shipments to
the Far East, according to a letter
from Secretary of Commerce Alex
ander to Chairman Benson OF the Ship
ping Board published to-day in a bull
letin of the Far East Commercial In
telligence.
Secretary Alexander's letter was in
reply to communication from Chair
man Benson.
"The nature Of the discrimination
is in almost every case so subtle, not
withstanding its effectiveness, that it
is almost impossible to take formal
action" says the letter.
"The best solution Of the matter
seems to be direct transportation of
American goods in American ships
wherever possible"
Reports have reached the depart
ment. Secretary Alexander said to-day,
which tend to show that American
shipments to Kobe in Japanese bot
toms for transshipment to Chinese

Tst ;s4s DORCHESTER, MASS
ARGENTENIANS PLEASED.
That United States Has Allotted Sew
en- Liners for South American Traffic.

Buenos Aires, Jan. 9.-American
business men in Argentina received
with pleasure the announcement that
the United States shipping board mad
allotted seven of its fastest liners for
service between New York and South
American ports including Buenos Aires
They have felt that they have been
struggling against handicap owing to
slow mail communication and passen-
ger transportation between the United
States and this country
Meantime the Americans chance OF
doing business has fallen into the hands
of European competitor who could
communicate with his principals by
mail within thfee weeks. Fast
steamships have been arriving here
from European ports almost twice a
week while the mail from the United
States came mostly by slow freight
steamers.
One of the difficulties OF which the
Americans here complained was the de-
Law in receiving bills of lading for
goods sent from the United States to
Argentina. This was due to the fact
that the I&ils could not be sent ON the
steamer which carried the goods and
there were few fast steamers which
could bring them here at the time the
goods arrived.
When the bill of lading was sent
on slow ships the goods were held in
the customs house here until she ar
rived.
On the other hand, bills of lading on
goods shipped from England came
through on fast steamers which often
arrived here before the goods were re-
ceived.
The Americans here say that cable
communication to the United States
costs 50 cents a word and that the ca
pacity of the cables is trebly over
taxed.
