visiting Antwerp in 1913. S ce the world-wide financial crisis of 1907 there had been not only no falling-off in British shipping visiting Antwerp, but a steady annual increase. In 1913 there' Was no particular reason for the decline as in 1908, for the shipping trade generally was in a flourishing state, with freight rates bigh and remunerative, though they showed a tendency to fall during the latter part of the year. The only visible cause was the removal of one of the large Red. Star Line passenger vessels from the British Blog, but this one ship alone, even though she makes annually a number of voyages, would not account for the decline of British shipping. The falling ef is the more serious from a British point of view from the fact that the shipping of our great maritime competitor, Germany, at this port showed a very pro-- nounded in orqage both in the no

ber of vessels and their tonnage during 1913: British shipping Rotaully declined by 42 vessels and 98,207 tons, while during the same period German-ship ping increased by 78 vessels and 361,005 tons. Moreover, German shipping accounted for almost the whole increase, both in num ber of vessels and tonnage, at Antworp during 1913. In 1909. British shipping at Antwerp to: talled 5,651,718 tons and German 3,293,775 toas; in 1913, the year now under review, British ship- ping reached 6,173,231 tons and ".. Gertaan 4,510,522 tons. In the five years there was, therefore, an increase of 521,513 tons in British shipping at Antwerp, and in the same five years there was an ingrense of 1,210,747 tons German shipping.-Exchange.
