Some idea of the fli.-organisati.m of vesfcls engaged in the Aii.-trubsian refrigerated service may be inferred by a report from London, which states that during the recent congestion of shipping in the Loudon ducks 24 large steamers were kept off the markets of the world for a month. ()f 32 steamers with refrigerated cargoes totalling 4,307,U5d carcases from Australia, held up f*r varying periods on account i 7 this congestion, the most glaring c:».-■<>* are those of the Commonwealth and Dominion Line •'earners Port Hacking and Port Nicholson. The Port Hacking (now lying at Port Chalmers! was delayed in port far 77 days over normal time, and the Port Nicholson for 02 days. Other cases were the Port Melbourne for 7>3 days, and the Aberdeen liners Demosthenes and Euripides for 53 days and 3<j days respectively. Altogether eight Commonwealth and Dominion Line •Tearners were affected by the congestion. The effect, of the disorganisation is evidenced in Australia, where oversews steamers arc arriving and departing in groups. SHIPPING TELEGRAMS. (Per United Press Association.) - LONDON. Juno 26.
