THE SHIPPING COMBINE.
Telegraph. Frees Association. Copyrighr. London, June 7. Sir Robert Giflen, giving evidence before the House of Commons' Steamships Subsidies Committee, recommended the establishment of liners to connect all the ports of the Empire, to the exclusion of foreign-subsidised ships, on the coast and trading between Britain and the colonies, unless they complied with British rules in the matter of construction and equipment, and paid a fine equal to the subsidy received. Sir Robert remarked that the American Government treated the combine, including the White Star line, as the property of Americans.
