CARGO PILFERING.
' AN INTERIM REPORT. By Telegraph.—Press Assn.—Copyright. London, April 18. The interim report of the committee of the Chamber of Shipping on the pilfering of goods in transit, emphasises the fact that the average claims paid by seven different steamship companies engaged in the same trade ranged from 21d to 62d per ton of cargo. The report says: There is evidence that the divergence is mainly due to varying practises on board in regard to tallying and watching. A recommendation is made for more efficient control and supervision of loading and discharging by ships’ officers, and other precautions.—Reuter.
