Canadian Australian Line in Receiver Hands Amid Oceanic Turmoil
Reports from Ottawa and New York reveal the Canadian Australian Steamship line teetering under financial strain. Huddart, promoter, faces winding up orders while a provisional manager takes over at £300 a year. The line formerly ran Sydney to Vancouver with two steamers, aiming to buy a third, the Aorangi. The balance sheet shows a large deficit and disputed accounts between Haddart, New Zealand Shipping, and the New York Shipping Co. Court actions and creditor meetings follow as liquidation looms.
