Shipment of Cottonseed Meal Soiit
Direct to EuroM.
Consul B. M. Itasmusen, of Stavan
gor, Norway, reports the arrival of a
cargo of c !tnnseed meal direct from
Galveston, which la the first direct
shipment from the United States to
the Norwegian porf named. The
consul says:
It gives me pleasure to report that
a cargo of cottonseed meal has Just
arrived here from Galveston, Texas,
which la the first direct shipload
from the United States to Stavangcr.
It was only through persistent efforts
on the part of the Importer, with
such assistance as this consulate was
able to render him, that this has been
accomplished. ,
The lack of direct transportation
facilities and the high freight rates
between this port and the United
States was brought to my attention
two years ago, and I suggested to the
Importers at that time that a cargo
could undoubtedly be delivered here
at a much lower rate than that exact
ed by the Importing syndicates If one
of the numerous steamers owned In
Norawy and employed In the fruit
carrying trade of the United States
could be chartered when returning
home Instead of sailing tn ballast, as
they frequently do.
Accordingly this was done, but the
project was blocked at every turn by
the Importing syndicates at Hamburg
and elsewhere. I may add that It
was only after paying a commission
on this cargo to the syndicate that
direct shipment was permitted.
By a collision on the Santa Fe near
