No.43. From Salina Cruz. July 2nd 1908. I have the honour to transmit to you copies of the accounts against the Steamer "Suisang" for the transport of water and provisions.
Note. The following statement of these accounts appears in English, and is therefore copied from the Report as it stands.
Chinese Commercial Company to the Tehuantepec Railway Company. Debtor. Steamer "Suisang". May 18th taking provisions on board forty dollars. May 23rd Tug lighter with labour taking her to sea. Fifty-six dollars. May 30th. Water delivered by Tug. Fifty dollars. June 3rd taking provisions on board and cargo off. Twenty dollars. June 10th taking provisions on board. Twenty dollars. May 31st water supplied (one trip) one hundred dollars. June 5th water supplied (one trip) Fifty dollars. June 12th Water supplied (one trip) Fifty dollars. June 13th Water supplied (two trips) One hundred dollars. June 13th taking provisions on board and cargo off Twenty dollars. June 18th Water supplied (one trip) Fifty dollars. June 18th taking provisions on board. Twenty dollars. June 19th Water supplied (two trips) One hundred dollars.
Kindly inform me whether you desire me to remit these invoices by post. (Signed) A. E. Gochicoa.
To facilitate the proofs afforded by all the documents transcribed above, I proceed to relate the facts of the case, referring to the numbers which have been given to the various telegrams and letters.
As may be seen from telegram No.3, there arrived by the Steamer "Suisang" 518 immigrants, as steerage passengers, amongst whom 341 were found to be suffering from trachoma. Nine of the second-class passengers were discovered to be similarly affected.
The Board, in view of the large number stated to be suffering from this disease, and fearing that some mistake must have occurred, ordered the Delegate to revisit the vessel for the purpose of assuring himself that there was really this number of trachomatous persons.
