Low Tides In Delta Anticipated, Masters of river steamers stato that extremely low tides may be anticipated in the Delta during the winter months, there having been no foods during the rainy season, and a steady fall in comparative heights has been observed. This will probably necessitate vessels leaving their, wharves at Canton at times other than scheduled to enable them to cross the bars.

Another night boat' service has been started. The Sai On and the Tung On are now to maintain a night service.

It means that there is no day service by this line from Hong Kong."
