SALVAGING FERRIES
on the two Salvage operations Hongkong and Yaumati ferries which were damaged in the collision in the harbour yesterday were started this morning. The
Man Ping, beached near the quayside at Holl's Wharf, was raised by the Company's launches at 8.30 a.m. and towed to Shamshulpo, when an inspection will be made to ascer- tain the amount of damage done.
A Kowloon Dock tug is at present working on the Man Shing, which settled in low water near the vehl- cular ferry wharf in Hongkong.
No passengers were injured in the, accident, which occurred when the two ferries altered their course to avoid colliding with a sampan.
