WHY FORMER TRIPS FAILED.
"There are several valid reasons why Sunday steamer trips round the Island could never become a live proposition," said Mr. I. Amold, Secretary of the Hong. kong, Canton and Macao Steam- boat Company Ltd, when seen by a. China Mail representative this ntorning. "In 1906, this company gave the scheme a trial. On the first trip the vessel left on the Sun- day afternoon, the fare being $2.00. We carried 20 foreign passengers, most of whom soon became sea- sick. The following Sunday, only three foreigners booked passages, so we returned the money and cancelled the sailing. One cannot rely on patronage from the Chin- ese as they seldom travel except: on business.
The reporter enquired whether any other local shipping companies had made attempts to popularize such Sunday afternoon trips.
高盛
"Yes," replied Mr. Arnold, Chinese company, running vessels up the West River, organized a pleasure cruise to Gin Drinkers' Bay and other popular picnic re- sorts at a dollar a head, but after one or two trips the scheme had to be abandoned as it did not pay."
Asked why public support was not forthcoming, Mr. Arnold point- ed out that a cruise round the island in a small river-boat, diaw- ing only about nine feet and carry- ing no cargo is no pleasure in rough weather as the vessel is tossed about like a cork if there is anything like a sea running outside.
NAVIGATION NOT EASY.
Mr. Arnold continued: It must be remembered that our vessels come under the Piracy Prevention Ordinance and the searching of passengers would neither con tribute to their enjoyment nor would the extra work be welcomed by the Police. Trips round the island would also entail a special pilot being carried as the naviga- tion is very tricky,
Some years ago it was suggested by the management of the Hong- kong Hotel that this company should run a Sunday steamer to Repulse Bay, returning at night. The navigation there and back presents
but
· រាជ difficulties, there is no safe anchorage and steamers have to lie 34 mile off the shore, necessitat- ing the use of boats for the transport of passengers, so we turned the offer down."-
In pre-war days our company used to run cheap Sunday cruises to Macao and back. In those days we hired regimental bands to play during the trip. We are still run- ning a steamer to Macao and back on Sundays. In pre-war days, it must be remembered, Repulse Bay Hotel was not in existence, nor was the motor-road to Fanling, round) the new territory a fuit accompli
To make a four to five hour trip round the island cover expenses, we should need at least 300 pas- sengers. As matters stand now, no officer or seaman is keen on a job on our Macao boat on a Sunday. They are hard at work during the week and naturally are anxious to have Sunday to themselves. If we organized round the island trips on Sundays, we should be inviung protests from the Seamen's Union and the China Coast Officers' Guild. Again, passengers would probably expect the price for liquid refreshments to be on similar scale, to that charged on the Canton and Macao steamers, the liquor for which is 'ex-bond." The Government could hardly be expected to sanc tion liquor on round the island boats being exempted from duty. In the final analysis, the civilian population of Hongkong is too small to support Sunday cruises on the lines suggested in the China. Mail in Thursday's issue," con- cluded Mr. Amold.
TRAM CAR SCUFFLE.
BAD MANNERS ON BOTH SIDES.
#
The case in which A. R. Remedios, the Portuguese who was summonsed by a Chinese for alleged assault on a tram going from Causeway Bay to Shaukiwan on June 6, came up for hearing again before Mr. J. R. Wood this morning.
Sub-Inspector Richard Lanigan informed His Worship that the soldier mentioned in the evidence. as having seen the episode, was not to be found
His Worship remarked that it was obvious there had been a quarrel between complainant and defendant and that there was now body on the car who saw this quarrel except, the soldier, He was of the opinion that the quarrel arose from a dispute ga to the occupation of the front seat on the top of the tram. His Worship also said that there were bad manners on both sides and neither of the parties had behaved themselves. He ordered the sum- mous to be dismissed.
