GERMAN SHIPPING,

REMARKABLE ILLUSTRATION OF GROWTH OT GERMAN, MARITIME INTERESTS:

The growth of Germany's maritime lalaresta is remarkably illustrated in recent issues of the | Statistik der Deutickan Reichs, the official pob- lication of the Imperial census department, *Part 4 of volume 174 contains the figures of maritime Traffic under the German flag in 1905, the latest year for which the tabulations are complete, and it shows that the expansion which had been continuous since 1875 remain. ed unabated,

In 1905 German vessels of all classes áre credited with 114,157 voyages, representing a movement of 81,365,538 registered tonnaga. -la-1875-the-anmber of" vayages":on" record- was only 44.302, while the tonnage wAS bat 8,604 610. Thus the number of voyagen was multiplied about two and A half timas

and of tonnage nearly ten sindvatse

space of thirty years. A further advantage exhibited in the fact that, while in 1857 about 20 per cent. of the jeturn voyages of German, ships were made in ballasta, in 1905. only about 74 per cents of them were made without cargoes.

A comparison of 1904 shows an increase of 2,814, or almost zj per cent, in voyageì aɛd of 4.554,119, or about 59 per cent., in tonnage.

"Nearly half of all the voyages made in 1905, or exactly 54.955, were between German ports, but the tonnage movement, only 4,600,000, indicates a very low average capacity in the vessels employed in the traffic. On the con trary 31,985 voyages were made either between of foreign and colonial ports, and foreign ports s the tot 1 tonnage involved was 58,750,000 it appears that the average size of the ships was about 1,900 togs.

Analyzing the voyages between ports in Germany and those of foreign countries, it appears that Denmark'leads in actual number, 4947 vessels clearing, from. German ports for hers and 4,169 from hers, for Germany.... England comes nex; in number of voyages, but, leads in tonnage, the movement, being from. Germany to England, 1,750,000 tons; England to Germany, 1,870,000 tons; total, 3.610,000. The United States comes second with 1.780,000 11 and 1,8:0,000. going coming from German pas

to Germany, or a toluf of 1,600,000 tons, The total tonnage of the Danish'commerce is only about 700,000 tons. This figure, however, is double what it was in 1901. Since the saİNƏ year the increase in trade under the German flag with England, Africa, Brazil and the Southern countries of South America has been. very marked, while there has heen a falling off for the northern Goast of South America "and": British North America.

About go per coat, of the commerce between. German ports was carried on under the: Ger- man, fax,and about per cent of traffic. be tween German and foreign porta. Notwith- standing this progress in German shipping, trade carried in foreign bottoms has shown no signs of decreasing. Part 3 of the same volume of the "Statistik” shows that 187,887 ships of all nationalities, with. 48,405,743 tonnage, en- Lorod German ports in 1901, against: 57,358 ships and 12,7231710 108s in 1878.
