HONGKONG METEOROLOGICAL
SIGNALS:
A NEW CODE.
We have received from the Hongkong- Observatory a new code of meteorological signals which comes into force at Hongkong on New Year's Day. They are the same as those at present in use at Shanghai, and will be hoisted on the mast beside the time-ball a Kowloon Point for the information of masters
of vessels leaving the port. They do not neces- sarity imply that bad weather is expected. The signals are as follows:-
+
A cone point upwards indicates a typhoon to the North of the Colony.
A cope point, upwards and drum below in- dicates a typhoon to the North-East of the Colony,
A drum indicates a typhoon to the East of the Colony.
A cone point downwards and drum below indicates a typhoon to the South-East of the Colony.
ADVERTISING DEPARTMENT.
Hongkong Telegraph is the best medium for advertising in China. It circulates largely among all classes of the community, is the largest daily newspaper and has a wider circulation than any journal in the Fara
East.

A cone poist downwards and ball below indicates a typhoon to the South-West of the Colony,
A ball indicates a typhoon to the West of the Colony,
A cone point upwards and ball below indicates typhoon to the North-West of the Colony.
