In reply to your letter No. 949 of the 14th nitimo, amitting copy of corespondence between the Government of Hongkong and the Hagkong Chamber of Commeres regarding the publication of information regarding quar antine restrictions, und ing niring what are the views of this Government, on the question, I na directed to inform you that it does not appear reasonable to sarquet this Government to take such steps for the publication in Bioga pore of restrictione imposed elsewhere as those suggested by the Hongking Chamber of Coma merte, though it has been arranged that in the event of quarantine restriction being again imposed on this part in consequence of another outbreak of plague or cholera hem, notice giving the required information will be posted up in the premises of the Tanjong Pagar Dook
·COMPÁNY, for general information.
Dam, however, to point out that through- ont the recent outbreaks such a notion was posted in the Singapore Shipping Office in front of the deek at which Agents and Masters clear their vossels, and that the information was also give to all Mastors of vessels by the Clack in charge A. Gazette Notification to the same effect was published, and the lol Prass was informed.

ax to the existence of quarantine restrictions at their port of destination.co
