TOO-HEAVILY LADEN?

A report of the sinking of a trad- | Ing' junk in Chinese waters has been made at the Harbour Office.

According to Chui Chi-shing. coxswain of the steam launch Tal Yick Yoe, at about noon on Friday his launch was hired at Tai Shen,

in Chinese territory, to tow the Hop Shun trading junk (T1689H) back to Hong Kong.

The junk was heavily lader with eergo. When off Tung Ku Island,

in British waters, at about 2.35

m the bottom of the junk fell out under the strain of the weight of the cargo. Water rushed into the hold, and with a heavy swell and, strong, south west wind It was a matter of minutes before the junk. would sink.

Fearing that the junk would sink in deep water and thus make salvage difficult, the

master of the

directed junk

Chui to beach her. He manag- ed to get the junk to shal- low water, just off the beach at

Tung Ku Island, before she settled

down to the bottom. All the crew were taken on the launch, which minde ita way here.

Later the mishap was reported to the No. 2 Police launch which was patrolling the vicinity.

The statement. made by Loo, Fook, manager of the Hop Shan trading junk, was corroborative. He had on board his junk 3,400 piculs af cargo, comprising bamboo, pine, Marseilles, London, Retterdam, Ant paper and general merchandise.
