British River Steamers show an increase of 33 ships of 32,141 tons or 0.5 per cent in numbers and 0.8 per cent. in tonnage. This is due to these steamers making a greater number of trips.

Foreign Ocean-going vessels have decreased by 526 ships of 1,569,000 tons or 12.5 per cent. in number and 18.3 per cent. in tonnage. This is due to the absence of enemy ships and also the withdrawal from the Eastern Trade of the Pacific Mail Co's Steamers.

Foreign River Steamers show an increase of 115 ships of 14,877 tons, or 6.5 per cent. in numbers and 1.6 per cent. in tonnage. This is due to these steamers making more trips and also to the addition of the S.S. Shing Cheong.

Steam Launches in Foreign Trade show a decrease of 34 ships of 23,473 tons, or 0.5 per cent. in numbers and 10.3 per cent. in tonnage. This is due to one of the regular launches being off the run for two months,
