Wellington, February <
The (lovernment has received cabled advice to the effect that the Federal Shire steamer Suffolk will not he returning: to .Now Zealand to load carjro, as/ was expected. The insulated cargo space on the Suffolk is equivalent to 120,000 carcases. The «ui--I'olk was to load here in March next. '<■ is hoped that arrangements may ; 'ule for the Suffolk to adhere to ■ original loading dates in New
/land, and correspondence is pass-
,ig with that end in view. If the Suffolk is withdrawn, it will mean the elimination from the quantity of insulated tonnage of about .‘IIO,OOO tons of freight and carcase space, taking into account the loss of the Tokoniaru and the fire on the Nairnshire, whch will prevent her returning to this country in time to be of i-dce. These two steamers, be- ' ,'v.r a them, woidd carry about 190.00 carcases, and they would be due ere in May in the ordinary course.
