USE IN SOUTH PACIFIC TRADE. REPLACING BRITISH TONNAGE. (By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright) NEW YORK, June 13. The “Herald-Tribune” says that three immobilised Dutch freighters, namely, the Columbia, the Norden, and the Olympia, are about to be assigned to the American Pioneer Line, and operated from Canadian and Atlantic ports to Australia and New Zealand to replace British flag Pacific tonnage, which will be transferred to the Atlantic, with an additional three coming later. It is also understood that two United Fruit Company vessels will be used to carry cheese from New Zealand to New York, whence it will be transhipped to Britain.
