BIG SHIPPING MOVE.
TRADE THROUGH PANAMA CANAL. INTENTION OF TWO NEW ZEALAND COMPANIES. IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT. (STECIA- TO "THE PRESS.") WELLINGTON, December 4. For months past speculation has been rife in shipping circles as to what action, if any, the Shaw, Savill and "Albion Company and the New Zealand Shipping Company would take in regard to the new trades which will come into existence through the opening of the .Panama Canal. Several statements have been published in this connexion with regard to other big steamship lines, but up to the present the intentions of two of the largest lines trading between the British isles and New Zealand have not been made known.
From enquiries made to-day, however, your representative was informed on reliable authority, that provided a reasonable amount of support is forthcoming, it is the intention of the Shaw, Savill and Albion Company and the New Zealand Shipping Company to establish a regular steamer service between New Zealand ports and the east coast ports of North America when the Panama Canal is opened for traffic.
