TRAFFIC IN THE sUEz CANAL
Interesting Facts Contained in Con

Consul Frederick " HsssfeId. at

an iE5erszting account Of the traffic IN
The Suez Canal during the ye- 1899, 2
report OF which has recently been made.
n his statement CoIsuI Hassfeld says:
1t appears from the last annual report
OF the Board OF Managers Of the Suez ca
aal Company that there vas q substantial
increase in the traffic Of The canal during
1889. as compared with the year previous.
especially in the fetal tonnage Of vessels.
In 1898. the number Of vessels that passed
through the canal was 9.5O3. with an ag-
gregaJe burden OF 9.238. sos tons, whereas
in 1893 the number was 1867 vessels. rep
resentIns an aggregate burden Of 6. .Sg5. $50
tons This is z gain Of I94 vessels and
65I01I tons The average burden Of yes
sells increased from 2,637 tons to 2,743
tors.
The average time consumed IN passing
through the canal during the year 1899
was eighteen hours aad thirty-eight min
utes, an increase OF thirty-e5ght minutes
as compared with 1855. This increase Is
accounted for by the fact that vessels
passing through the canal under quaran-
tine are compelled TO avoid any contact
wlth the land, and must stop at night il
not provided with electric headlights.
However, the time actually consumed by
vessels in steaEling through the canal was
less in 1889 than the year previous, having
been reduced from fifteen hours and fortv-
three minutes 10 fifteen hours and forty
one minutes. Last year . 273 yesseis be

able TO pass through the canal at night
