New AHOcatiOn
BY Ship Board
Creates a Stir
Placing of Wheaton i'm the
Intercoaslal Run Widely
Discussed as First Since
Ship Owners Made Protest
May Be Exceptional Case
Vessel Is a Refrigerator
Ship, of Which Board Is
Known to Have Very Few

Announcement Of the ALLEGATION Of
she steamer Wheaton, $500 deadweighi
tons, TO A. T. Aitsnaeh, Of New York,
for one intereoastsl voyage, created
much interest In shipping circles yes
terday, as the Wheaton is the hrst
vessel the Shipping Board has alloeated
in that trade since IL received the EN-
ph,tie protests Of the American Steam
sAip Owners Association against the
participation Of any % its tonnage In
the coast-to-eoast run.
Although the Shipping Board did not
Al that time formally agree to observe
this request, Il has M 70 now taeitly
a. Ieast followed the principle set forth
hv the protesting intercoastal lines,
namely. that with the large number Of
privatfiy owned companies already IN
that business there Is no room ielt LOT
the government 10 pat its vessels IN
without doing serious injury 70 thc
private competitors.
Asked whether he believed taat the
ALLEGATION Of the Wheaton. &c him
meant a departure from this prinei,,
pie by the board, DIR. hittnAeh SAID
yesterday that he believed his case
should be taken rather as the exeep-
tion than as the rule. The wheaton
ne pointed out, is a refrigerator ship,
a class Of which the Shipping Board
only owns two or three, and which Is
liable % suffer deterioration II not
kept in commission. The ALLEGATION OF
this one particular vessel does not,
therefore, mean that the board in
tends 70 offer serious competition to
the lines carrying general cargo from
coast TO coast.
The Wheaton will sail from Allan
tic waters early in January with
general cargo Of freight, and will com
ple.e the assignment by coming back
with a full load Of fruit and vege-
tables from the Pacific Coast
Ny. M!ttnAeh was formerly manager
for the Elder Steel Steamship Com
pany. and after that concern went in
70 bankruptcy he was appointed its
receiver. The Wheaton operation,
however, he emphaticslly stated will
have no connection whatever with the
defunet concern whose affairs he now
has IN charge.

Thousands upon thousands OF
California canteloupes destined for
eastern markets are being shipped
from the Pacific coast over the Rock

fcials are preparing for the arrival
Of the first consignment which is

The melons are being shipped

Word from the west is that the
canteloupe crop is very plentiful,
the production being more than in
