In the meantime the Squadron of New Majestie's ships will supersede the use of sailing war junks altogether, as they have proved to be wholly unadapted for cruising and pursuit after Pirates smugglers, and unable to protect its own revenue from great losses by Contraband trade, being unable to perform the police of its own waters at a lower rate than the present cost.
Small and swift gunboats drawing little water, in cooperation with the naval Forces of other Treaty Powers, will give an excellent account of all armed vessels that may appear between Hainan and Newchwang, once a law is passed to prohibit the carrying of arms.
