TRADING JUNK SUNK.
According to a report made at the Harbour Office by the owner of a trading junk, his craft was sunk as the result of the stormy weather on Monday last, and a valuable cargo on board, was lost. The junk sailed from Shamahaipo at 6 a.m., on March 5 with 700 casks of Portland Cement consigned to Sangheong, in Chinese territory. When between Tungching and Tai-0 at 2.30 p.m., the same day, a heavy sea arose and the junk sus- tained considerable damage. It shipped water rapidly and soon became waterlogged, sinking within two hours. Those on board the wreck were rescued by the crow of a junk which was anchored in the vicinity. Only half of the sunken junk's masts remain above water. The value of the cargo lost is estimated at $3,000, whilst the junk is worth $8,500.
