WRECK STATISTICS FOR 1909.

The statistical summary of Yessels totally lost, broken up, condemned, &c., now published b~· Lloyd's Register, shows that, during 190!), the gross reduction in the effectirn mercantile marine of the world amounted to 8GG vessels of !)39,232 tons, excluding all vessels of less than 100 tons. Of this total, ;)83 >essels of 645,670 tons were steamers, and 483 of 2!)3,5G2 tons were sailing \·essels. These figures exceed those for 1908 uy 129,940 tons-steam 7!),183 tons, and sail 50,757 tons. This excess is not due to actual casualties, the figures for which show a diminution of 31,471 tons, but entirely to the unusual number of vessels which have been broken np, dismantled, etc. 'l'he amount of tonnage so dealt with during 190!) exceeds by far the figures reported in the Society's Wreck Returns for any year, being 121,383 tons more than the total for 1907, which was the highest previously recorded.

The tonnage of United Kingdom vessels broken up, dismantled, &c., during 1909, is also greater than the highest figures so far recorded, and amounts to nearly 47 per cent. of the total number of such ca~es.

The number and tonnage of vessels lost, etc., during the pre>ious ten years are as follow :-

I ____

The Statistical Tal.Jles exhibit interesting data as to the relative frequency of the different kinds of easualty, &c., which conclude the existence of >essels. Strandings and kindred casualties which are comprised under the term "wrecked," are much the most prolific cause of disaster. To such casualties are attributable 53·5 per cent. of the losses of steamers, and 57·;i per cent .. of sailing Yessels. Cases of abandonel, founderd, and missing vessels are no doubt frequently more or less similar in the circumstances of loss. If these be taken collcctiYcly, they comprehend 20·8 per cent. of the i-:tcamers, and 23·6 per cent. of the sailing vessels removed from the mercantile marine during 190!!, owing to casualty. As regards vessels owned in the United Kingdom, it is satisfactory to observe that the number of casualties comprised in these classes in the present return, viz. 26, is the lowest recorded since these Wreck Statistics have been compiled by Lloyd's Register. A nry common termination of a vessel's career, is by br~aking up, condemnation, &c., not due to casualty. During 1909 no less than 33·2 per ce:it. of the ste1:ners and 37·i per cent. of the sailing vessels removed from the merchant fleets of the world are accounted for in this manner.

The return has been compiled by Lloyd's Register in such a manner as to enable a comparison to be made between the percentages of loss suffered by each of the principal merchant navies in the world. Great as the absolute annual loss of vessels belonging to the United Kingdom appears to be, it is seen to form a very moderate percentage of the mercantile marine of the country. 'l'he percentage of vessels lost by the United Kingdom in 1909 is less than that of any of the other principal maritime countries.

STATISTICAL SU~IMARY OF

VESSELS OF ALL NATIONS, OF 100 TONS AND UPWARDS,

TOTALLY LOST, CONDE~fNED, &c., DURING THE YEAR

1909.

NoTE :-This Summary is based upon the quarterly returns of total losses, &c., which have been

published by Lloyd's Register. It includes, however, vessels which had not been given up as total

losses, or of the loss of which information had not been received, when the returns for the quarters

in which they respectively occurred were compiled. On the other hand, a few vessels which, being

definitely considered as total losses at the respective dates of compilation, were included in the

quarterly returns, have since been floated, repaired, &c., and are accordingly now excluded from the

statistics given herein. Particulars of all such additions to, and deductions from, the quarterly returns

a.re given on pages 5 to 7.

A distinguishing feature of the Wreck Returns published by Lloyd's Register is that, except as

stated in the footnotes to Table No. 1, they are compiled strictly according to the dates at which the

casualties resulting in total loss actually occurred, and not according to the dates at which reports of

casualties were received.
