TWO THOUSAND

LINES AFFECTED

The typhoon has caused consi- derable damage to the telephone system: approximately some 2,000 lines being at present out of order. Every effort is being made to re- store service as early as possible but. In some cases, owing to the heavy nature of the damage, it may be that service will not be restored for a few days.

Subscribers should note that the Telephone Co., have already tested every faulty line and ask them not, to report their line unnecessarily as this only adds to the work.

The Canton cable has been dis- connected due to a washout of a bridge near Talpo. It is hoped to restore service by some time to-

day.

Towards dawn the vessel ran aground and a vessel, whose name had five is not known but who white glars on its funnel. came most of alongside and took off the passengers, bringing them back to Hong Kong in-safety. Mean- while the crew had lowered the ship's feboats and made for the island and there they, sheltered until a few ferry boats came along to take them back to harbour.

According to our informant, the Van Heutz was badly damaged. Nos. 2 and 3 holds rapidly Alling with water though the engine room Was safe enough. The women passengers were very excited and one Chinese youth attempted to jump over the side of the vessel but was prevented from doing so by Yue Chin-kit, an engine-room assistant. This youth, so we are informed, was later taken ashore. suffering from nothing more than a slight shock.

KALGAN ENDS UP IN WHARF!

Members of the crew of the s.s Kalgan had more than their share

The road to the Royal Observa- tory was blocked by a large tree which had fallen right across, but this was soon cleared by a band of Chinese coolies. All the wooden sheds along Chatham road were the completely destroyed, while tiles of the roof of the Kowloon Football Club house le scattered in all directions.

RIVER STEAMERS DELAYED River steamers from Canton which were due here at 8 a.m. yesterday did not arrive until 7 p.m. and the Hong Kong-Canton Steamship Wharf was thronged with anxious enquirers waiting the their relatives and arrival of friends.
