INCREASED FREIGHTS
SHIPMENTS TO AUSTRALIA. (Rec. 8.35 p.m.) Melbourne, February 6. Reports have been received from London, indicating that overseas shipping companies trading with Australia are about to increase their freight. This action is contemplated because they fear heavy losses through the decline of imports to Australia following the recent tariff increases, loss of outward wool cargoes; suspension of migration to Austalia and the general depression.
