QUESTION CONSIDERED IN
WELLINGTON.
[BY TELEGRAPH.—PRESS ASSOCIATION.]
Wellington, Friday. At a meeting of the Council of the Wellington Chamber of Commerce the question concerning the , deferred j shipping rebates forwarded from Home for the purpose of obtaining information required by the Royal. Commission in England was considered. - The council parsed i the following motion on the subject, ''That as far as this Council is aware, no system of deferred rebates exists in connection ;• with/ the steam services between New Zealand and the United Kingdom and America, respectively ;\? that while it is generally understood, that some of the shipping companies are in-concert'with a view to the maintenance of reasonable freights,' such combination does not appear to have detrimentally affected shippers or consignees, while the services supplied to the colony by the several companies are maintained at a high standard of efficiency, and present freight rates are not looked upon as being in any degree excessive." ,
