811 Vessels Have Boon Destroyed by Belligerents.
The monthe war operations of theaaropean belligerente has wiped out approximately.two per cant of the world's" merchant tonnage. A carefully compiled record, printed by the New York Journal of Commercs, of the: wall fours on się about vessels of all classes destroyed by various means, from August, 1914, down to and including the nible reports of June 80, showe that 511 ships or have been leliminated from the availa
ble tonnage. These 6111ships had a total gross tonnage of 815,457 tons. The tonnager of some of the ships, given in the record could not be learned. Therefore, the i.pggregate, gròsB tonnage stated is in reality. within the notual lobees. When war broke out last August the world's. merchant tonnage of all classes was approximately 48,000,000 gross tons. Germany bad ander the red, white and black colours, in all parts of the world, a gross, ship tonnage of about 5,082,081 tona England led all the nations with an aggregate gross tonnage of 20,431,584 tona. Without taking (iinto account the number or toonage of enemy Vossels held or captured by the respective belligerents, England's gross tonnage in the first ten months of war has been reduced 609,934 tons. A total of, ap proximately 327 vanels flying the Union Jack had been destroyed | by sobmarine, mine and similar war operations in that time. The losses were divided aboutras follows: 175 merchant stesim yessole and 157 trawlers, fishing, emacke, ketches and railing vegsele.

It is now lying idle-at-the Gore Avenue wharl Vancouver, and since there is nothing for it to do at present, the department wishes to remove it to the Second Narrow, to be stowed away until snohtime as it may be required again; but, behold, the officials may not remove it without.permission of the customs authorities, for the simple but evidently....sufficient reason that it was never registered.

Now a whole cart-load of red tape will have to be untied beforethe proper formalities can be complied with. Some of the people around, the City Hall are wondering who has started the agitation now to have the boat registered. They think, perhaps, that some one who wants a job aa captain has begun something, bat whatever the prime motive, the department-must take out the necessary papers.
