PREFACE
Ix ..\CCORD.\.XC.c with whnt is believed to he the general desireof those who are in the habit of using the YE.\n-DoOK, it ispnblished at an earlier date than has been the case hitherto.
It need hardly be repeated that every effort has been made tobring the information up to date, it is believed successfully. Thiswould have been impossible without the friendly co-operation ofthe Governmcnf officials of foreign countries, the authorities of
our own Colonies, and of India, her Majesty's Diplomatic andConsular representatives in various parts of the world, not tomention numerous private individuals, to all of 'VhODl I lJcg toconvey Iny warmest thanks.
Several changes have been made this year. The headings tothe pages have been so altered as to render the Look luncheasier of consultation than before, The various changes which
have taken place during the year as a result of internationalarrangements have heen embodied, involving additions to theBritish, French and German Elnpires. Heligoland has disappeared£ro111 the British Empire and Zanzihar has been added, as wellas other extensive areas in ..l\..frica. By favour of the United
States Census Department I UITI able to give the results of thoCensus taken in June last. In nlftny other respects importantimprovements have been made.
I have to thnnk those who have favoured Inc with suggestions,which arc always welcome.
