Government regulations, and at the Suez Canal the affidavit

of the captain as to the flashing point of the oil is accepted

without any other proof whatever.

Li

The next point in which we require your aid is that of

anchorage for junks laden, or partly laden, with kerosene,

may be alloted at a site adjoining our tanks at Taikoktsui.

It appears that the present anchorage is at a very con-

siderable distance from our tanks, it being that alloted before

the bulk oil was started, and the business was done in tins

and cases, shipped from a point near the present anchorage.

Very great loss and vexatious delay occurs to our buyers

at present, because if their junks cannot complete loading at our

tanks by dusk, they are compelled to go a distance of some

miles to get to the kerosene junk anchorage, and then return

the next morning to complete their loading.

It is very obvious that there can be no possible objection

to alloting an anchorage ground, rendered necessary by the new

location of the centre of the business, as in time we are satis-

fied that the whole of the business or the port will be done

from Taikoktsui, and already two thirds of it is done from there.

The third request which we have to make is that we may be

allowed to use part of our ground, isolated entirely from the
