and the result is that speed record of the Westward passage belongs to the Kron Frins Wilhelm, and that of the eastward passage to the Deutschland, The directors of the P and O. line who have resolved to continue to make the Thames their home port, will be able to bring shortly to the Thames four been 10,000-ton steamers, which have building for the line in the course of the year; and vessels larger than the Celtic and the Cedric are building, or preparing to be built, at Belfast, for the White Star Line,
And yet, with all these evidences of shipping world, 1902 activity in the cannot be said to be a successful year, either for shipowners or ship-builders. The boom in shipbuilding which began early in 1898 has terminated, and the very low rates offered by builders do not tempt shipowners to place contracts with them to any great extent. Freights have ruled very low, and there is no de finite sign of recovery at the end of the year 80 that while 1901 saw the largest tonnage on record launched from the
dom, 1902 has seen the beginning of a period of small gains for shipowners which is certain to cause a considerable reduction in the tonnage launched in the course of the coming year.
