In 1901, the navigation on our neighbouring countries on the Baltic
and the North Sea (Norway, Denmark, Finland, Russia, the German
Empire, the British islands, the Netherlands, and Belgium) amounted
to 94-7 5 %. The navigation on France amounted to 2-51 %, on the
remaining parts of Europe to 0-8 5 on Africa to 0-9 s %, on America
to 0-6 7 on Australia to 0’i4 %, and on Asia to 0-i5 %.

Direct Swedish steam-boat lines, on which the traffic at least
partly is carried on by Swedish vessels, only exist to a few
places in Europe. Of these lines we may mention the so-called
Kontinentalrouten (the Continental route), which, with subventions from the
Swedish and the German Governments, keeps up steamer communication
all the year round between Trelleborg in Skåne and the watering-place
of Sassnitz on Rtigen. Thus a comfortable connection is since 1897
arranged between the railway-lines of Sweden and those of the
Continent. The passage Trelleborg-Sassnitz takes about 4 hours, and the

* By vessels in ballast are meant those whose cargo is less than one tenth of the
net tonnage. Most of the passenger steamers consequently come under this head. — Tables
142 and 143 show slight differences owing to cert ala figures being roanded off.
