Shipping is warned that during the course of the survey now in hand in the approa- ches to Hong Kong, by H.M.S. Iroquois, it will be necessary to lay out one or two floating surveying beacons to the north westward of Gap Rock.
These beacons will not be lighted at night and they will probably be laid out during the 3rd week in November, their exact positions will be communicated as soon as they are in position,
