COMMLNTs IN TIE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BUREAU
OF STATISTICS.

COMMLNTs ~ TIE ANNUAL REPORT OF THE BUREAU
OF STATISTICS.
GENERAL PRESS DIsPArcH.l
WAslINGToN, Nov. 13.-The most interesting
feature of the annual report of the Chief of
the Bureau of Statistics laside from the valu-
able tables an abstract of which was printed in
THE TRIBUNE exclusively yesterday Is a discussion
by General Nmmo on the subject of the decline of
American tonnage. General Nimmo states that the
total tonnage of American vessels entered at the
seaports of the United States from foreign countries
during the last fiscal year, namely, 3Ol9,743
tons, exhibits an increase of only l per
cent over the preceding year. while the
foreign tonnage entered during the same
period amounted to O71s.39i tons, an increase of
nearly 90 per cent American vessels carried
$ll 900 900 worth of goods less than the year be-
fore.
In speaking Of the apparent anomaly presented in
the prosperous condition of foreign commerce-the
balance Of trad, being very largely on the side OF
the United States while the foreign branch of the
American merchant marine still greatly depressed
General Nimmo says:
Probably 10 branch OF American industry comes
80 arectly into competition with foreign Industry as
building vessels end operating them In in
teruafionul commerce. Neither tarin legislation nor
navigation laws. nor transportation charges nor any
other circumstance mtervenes TO repress or shut out
foreign competition. Evidently under such conditions
the nation which oan build and operate vessels the
eventually secure the principal share OF
the carrying trade In foreign commerce. This has
place and the fact is clearly recorded in our sta
tistics of tonnage entered.
hopeful view of the future of our merchant
marine is expressed as follows;
The fact that IL has recently become possible for many
products OF American manufacture TO be sold IN foreign
markets In conn eioD with the products OF longostab-
lhed industries Of other manufacturing countries In.
spires the nope that the efforts which have oeen put
forth by American shiphudcrs In the construction OF
iron vessels chiefly for homo trade, will ultimately
enable compete with foreign .hipbuders for our
trade with foreign countries. At the present
time so per cent Of tine tonnage OF the country ls e-
