COSTS IN NEW ZEALAND POSITION GETTING WORSE. ACCORDING TO GERMAN REPRESENTATIVE. (By Telegraph—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, This Day. ‘■Of all the lines my company has, the New Zealand one is actually the most expensive," said Captain Mathy, Australian representative of Norddeutacher Lloyd, when he arrived today, "and that is because of the high cost of loading and discharging cargo." He has been in Sydney for five years and goes to Germany at the.end of this year on furlough. He said shipping companies had been hoping that the position regarding New Zealand costs would improve, but it was getting worse and worse and would lead to an increase in freights to and from New Zealand.
