WEST RIVER FALLING

MANY SHIPS AGROUND NEAR

KAI SIAO

The West River, continues to fall with the result that many ships wont- aground at a place called Kaí Siap, car the boundary between Kwang- tung and Kwangsi. It was stated thai no fewer than eight vessels went aground at that place during the last four days.

The water at Wschow is said to be eight inches below "zero"--a level which has not been recorded for a long time. Unless the water rises, vessels will-in future stop at Dosing on their way to Wuchow, so as to avoid unnecessary risks of going aground.
