IMPORTANT STEAM SHIPPING COMBINATION.
(PER PRESS ASSOCIATION.) Dunedin, March 25. Messrs Webster and Fisher, chairman and manager of the T-smanian Steam Navigation Company, left for Sydney, via the North to-day. A basis of agreement has been arrived at with the Union S.S. Co., subject to confirmation by the shareholders of the Tasmanian Company, by which the bnamess of the two Companies will practically be amalgamated. At any rate there will be no active competition as at present. Lhe T.S.N. Company will retain its Board of Management, and will control the boats running from ports there, and probably the Rotomahana will trade between Hobart and Melbourne with the T.S.N. Company s Patnna, one of the large steamers of the latter Company, extending her voyage to New Zealand.
