THK WORLD'S
ailHATEST HARHOR
I said to ono who had sallod tho soa
That this was a mnrvol unto mo;
For hbw can tbo ships go safoly
forth,
Somo to tho south and somo to tho
north,
Par out to sea on their goldon quest,
Or luto tho harbor's calm and rost,
And ovor tho wind blow out of tho
weat?
Tho sailor smiled as ho nnsworcd me,
'Qo whoro you will when you'ro on
tho sea, i
Though bead winds bafflo and flaws
delay.
You can keep tho courso by night and
day,
Drlvo with tho brcozos or against tho
gale;
It will not matter what winds pro-
vaii,
For all doponds on tho sot of tho
sail."
Tho Droakwator Is duo in oarly In
tho morning, having sallod from
Portland this morning.
Tho Rodondo 1b scheduled to sail
from San Francisco for Cooa Day
next Monday afternoon. Sho crossed
out last night.
A groat marltlmo boom 1b appar
ently universal. Tho American const
wlso trado Is flourishing; so Is tho
trans-Atlnntlo trudo; so Is tho Pa
cific trado; so Is tbo trado ovon In
far away Australia. Evorywhoro
thoro Is a demand for ships that can
not bo mot.
Much significance Is placed on tho
fact that previous ronmrkablo marl-
iimo rovivaiB liavo followed porlods
of buslnosB depression and hnvo
pointed tho way to marked rovlvals
of buslnoss on land na woll.
Tho harbor of Now York 1b unques
tionably ono of tho finest natural
harbors of tho continent, perhaps of
tho world. Till tho beginning of tho
nineteenth century it was predicted
that Boston, or oven Nowport, would
becomo tho great port of Nprtn
Amorica. As late as 1812, Philadel
phia was tho suporlor of Now York
as a financial and commercial cen
ter. Contrary to all predictions,
however, Now York has left all other
cities far bohlnd In Its phenomenal
growth Today Its commorco ox-
ccedn that of any otlior port In tho
world, including its groat rival, Lon
don and Hamburg. Its population,
according to tho last census; Is also
Increasing about two and a halt times
as fast an that of London
Tho moasuro of the commorco of a
port Is tho total volumo of tonnngo of
tho vossols ontorlng and clearing.
Tho total tonnngo ontorod and
elenrod nt London during 1910 was
In round numbors 20,230,000 tons;
nt Hamburg, 22,300,000 tons; at
Now York City, 25,600,000 tons.
Tho corresponding figures for Now
York City for tho year 1901 woro ap
proximately 10,300,000 tons,. There
fore tho nvorago lncrcaso In tonnngo
during tho past 10 years was 1,000,
000 por annum.
Tho valuo of Imports through Now
York Harbor during tho yoar 1010
approximated $930,000,600; oxports,
ot2.00u,uoo, a total of SI. 588. 000.-
000, giving tho federal government n
rovonuo of approximately $200,000,
