On January 11th. undertake with in many cases dépleted staffs. there was a great rush to get off tremshipment cargo and an a temporary expedient to meet the rush # shipping comprey suggested presenting a sopy of the manifest of the importing ship sontaining the cargo for transhipment to the exporting ship,

This plan was adopted and goûting it endorsed by this offiop.
