During the first seven months of 1914 the traffic through the Canal was in excess of that for the same period of 1013. The receipte however, fell after the outbrask of war, but the loss occasioned by the dimination of the mercantile traffic was portly compensated by an ibaresand movement of mili- tary transports. The number of vessels which passed through the oanal was 6,2/3 in 1812, 5,085 in 1913, and 4,802 in

1914, of which 3,376 in 1912, 2,951 in 1913, and 9,078 in 1014, carried the British flig. There has been au inoresas of 857,794 tong last year, as compared with 1013, in the tonnage of British vessels, which amounted to 12.- 847,621 toca in 1912, 12,052,484 tons in 1913, and 12,910,278 tons in 1914. Daring the same period the Lannage of German vessela has decreased from 3.025,415 tons in 1912 and 3,352,287 tons in 1913, to 2.118,946 tons in 1914. The percentage of British vesasla and their not tonnage in 1914 was 64.1 and 665 respectively, an compared with 58 and 60-2 in 1918, and 82.1 and 63.4 in 1912. The percentage of Ger- man Vessela and their net tonnage was 10 and 10.0 respec- tively, as compared with 15-8 and 16.7 in 1913, and 13 and 149 in 1912, while the percentage of net toansge of the other mari- time nations using the Canal in | 1914 remained practically station- ary, as compared with the preced- ing year.
