SHIPBUILDING IN 1897,

During 1997, ¢xclusive of war ships, 59) vessels of 952,486 tone gross (viz, 545 steamers Of 924,382 tous and 46 sailing vessels Of-28(104 tons) have been launched in the United Kingdom. The war ehips launched-at both Goveroment and private yards amounted to 48 of 95,465 tons dis- placement. “The total output of the United Xingdom: for the year bas, theretore, been 639 vessels of 1,047,051 tons. The output of the year in the United Kingdom is jess than that of 1896 by 207,000 tone, but isebout equal to that of | 1895. The decrease occars mainly in steam tonnage. The construction of sail- ing vessel*, which has been rapidly falling off since 1892,has this year reached a lower p»int than any of »which Llovd’s Register has previous record. In 1892, sailing tonnage formed 24 per cent, of the output; in b897, it forms only’3 per cent of a considerably smaller total.

The warship tonnage launched in 1897 likewise shows a very considerable decrease

((68,(:'0 tons) from the figures for 1896. The

tounage lauached for. British Navy is less by 51,000 tons than was the case last year,

In recent-annual statements of this kind, the output of the year F889 has been assumed to be nearly indicative of the maximum productive capacity of the ship building yarde of the United Kingdom. In that year,596 steamers of 1,083,793 tons,and'95 sailing vessels of 125,568 tons (total 690 vessels of 1,209,361 tons) were launched. ‘It wall be eeen that these figures exceed those for 1897 by over 17 per cent. on he total tonnage and by nearly 27 per cent in the total tonnage. On ihe other hand, the war torwage launched in the country durivg 1897 exceeded that launched during 1889 Ly over 47,000 tons. It may be said that, on the basis of ton- nage jaunchéd.aod taking the figures for 1889 as a étandard, the shipbuiidiog facilities of the country have been utilised in 1597 to the extent of tive-sixths.

As regards the material employed for the construction of the vessele included in the United Kingdom returns for 1897, it is found that, of the-eteam tonnage, 98.8 per cent. has bee built of steel and ll per cent. of iron. “The iron steam tonnage is! practically made up of trawlers, and com-} prises no vessel of more than 196 tons. Of the saving tonnage,'95°5 per cent. has been built ot steel, and 45 per cent. of wood,

Of the total output, 628,534 steam tons and 27,592 esailivg tons, or 716,126 tons in all (rather over 75 percent.) belong to ports inthe United Kingdom. In this connection, itanay be noted that the losses &c., of United Kingdom vessels during

jtwelve monthe sre shown by Lioyd’s Regiater Wreck Returns to average 272,» 006 tons (187,000 steam, 85,000 sail). Sales to foreigu and colonial owners for the twelve montbs ended WNovereber, 1897, reach the large total 46.5,000 tons (359,000 steam, 106,008 sail). On the other hand, purchases from foreign and colouiai owners during the same period amounted to 68,400 tons (63400 steam, 4,800 sail). The sailing tonnage of the United Kingdon would thus appear to have decreased by sbout 158,008 tons, whi'e the steam ton- nage has increesed by 206,000 tons. The net increase of United Kingiom toenage during 1897 is therefore about 48,000 tons. This figure falls below t22 simil: r estimate for 1896 by 169,008tona, below that for

1895 by 81,000 tone, and below that for 1894 by no Jess than 38! .000 tons. About 25 per cent. of the total outpat

bas been built to the onler of foreign and colonial shipowners in 1897, as eompared with 30 per ceet. in 1896 and 20 per cent. in 1895. Japan has this year provided the largest amountef werk for British ship- builders, 14 vessels of }%9,425 tons (over 6 per cent. of the total output) having been built forthat country. Germany follows with 8 vessels of 30,507 tons (over 3 percent.j. Next come the Colonies with 23,00@ tons (2.4 per cent.); Holland with 18,860 tone; Russie. with 16,000 tone; and Norway with 14,206 4ons. Denmark and France have eacy taken between 13,000 and 14,6@0 tons; and -Spain has taken 12,600 tons.

Newcastle (169,585 tone), Belfast (106,605 tons), Greenvek (103,073 tons), Middles- bro (88,827 tons), and Hartlepool (65,686 tons).

During the year under review, six stearm- ers have been Jannched of the trunk~deck type which wes introduced in 1896—all baving been built vider the, supervision of Lloyd’s Register. | The output during the year includes, in addition, 147 steam trawlera and othér fishing’ vessels 34 dredgera, barges, &d.,; 32 yachts; 17 tugs; and other vessels designed for special service.

Of the vessels lannched in ‘the United Kingdom, 484 of 770,13% tons have been built uuder the Society’s inspection with a view to classification in Lloyd’s Register Book.

As regards the movements of the ship- building industry during the course of 1897, Lioyd’s Register Returns show that, irrespective of warships, the total tonuage under construction in the United Kingdom on the 3ist December, 1897, exceeded by about 229,000 tons, or nearly 30 per cent., that under construction twelve months previourly, The increase is entirely in steam tonnage, the sailing tonnage now in progress standing at the unprecedentedly low total of 4,127 tons. At the close of 1896, 784,711 tons (755,975 steam, 28,736 sail), were being built. During the firet three quarters of 1897, the figures gradual- ly increased until at the end of September 834,000 tons were repcrted. A very large increase upon these figures is indicated by Jatest returns. These show that no less than 1,013,319 tons (1,009,192 steam, 5,127 sail) are at present under construction ip the United Kingdom. There can be but little doubt that so large an amount of tonnage bas never before been in hand io the United Kingdom at onetime. It should by. added that the warship tonnage under construction in the country remains at a high level. Four years ago it stood at %, 000 tons displacement. In December, 1894, itamounted to 260,000 tons; in 1895, to 306,090 tons; in 1896, to 340,000 tons; aod at the present time it amounts to 313,000 tons.

There have been built in foreign contries, during the year, 253 steamers of 278,443 tons and 146. ssiling vessels of 100,995 tons, in addition to 42 war vessels of 133,435 tons displacement. Among foreign countries, the three leading places are held by Germany (140,000 tons), United States of America (87,000 tons), and France (49,000 tons). Included in the figures for Germany are three steamers of more than + 12,080 tons each, viz :—

Tons grossa. Kaiser Wilhelm der Grosse. .... 14,349 Kaiser Friedrich. ..Capproximate) 12,500 Pretoria. ....,-«+-.-(approximaie, 12,500

A large warship tonnage (51,000 tons displacement) has also been launched in Germany during the year. Of the tonnage reported from the United States, about 60 per cent. does not affect the general cem-

mere2 of the world, but is intended exclusively for service onthe Great Lakes of North America.

As showing the size of vessels employed in thie special trade, it is interesting to note that three steamers have been built for it during 1897 of upwards of 4,000 tons each, besides seven sailing barges ranging hetween 3,180 and 3,800 tons. As regards French shipbuildiug, the most noticeable feature has recently been the development of the construction of large sailing vessels. Five such vessels, of 2,906 tons and above, have been launched during the year, all having been built under the supervision of Lioyd’s Register. The largest of these, and also the largest seagoing sailivg vessels built ia the world in 1897, are the

those for the United Kingdom, as given in the preceding tables, tke total output of the world during 1897 (exclusive of war ships) appears to bave been about 1,33!,. 008 tons (1,202,000 steam, 129,000 sail). Lloyd’s Register Wreck Returns show that the to.eege of all nationalities totally los:, broken ap, &c, in the course of twelve months amounts to about 712,600 tons (316,000 steam, 396,000 sail). It will thus be seen that, while the sailing toonag? «f the world has been reduced by 267,000 tons during 1897, the steam tonuage bas increased by about 886,000 tone. The net increase of the world’s mercantile tonnage is, therefure, 619,009 tons. Of this total, the net inciease in the tonnage of the Uuited King*om, as given above, is rather less than 8 per cent. Of the new tonnage Jauached, however, the United Kingdom has acquired about 54 per cent.
