has increased instead of decrossing dur- ing the last ten years, while in 'every caso the tonnage entered has shown a considerable increase. The increase of toanage might have been attributed to the building of fewer and larger vessels in place of the smaller ones sold out of the service, but even this plon fails when the actual number of British ships enter. at the various ports is considered. During the ten years, from 1902 to 1911, the number of British vossals enter ed at Shanghai had increased by 213 skips d the tonnage by, the handsome figure of 890,836 tons.
