That citizens of the United States are financially interested in some 

 of these vessels is quite certain, but to what extent it is difficult to as- 

 certain. They are secured by mortgages, but these mortgages are not 

 always recorded and there is no reliable method of ascertaining how 

 many there are of them or how large a proportion of the capital in- 

 vested they represent. 



The vessels whose owners we do not give are registered in Nova Sco 

 tia or elsewhere, outside this port.
