CONCERNING BALLAST, SEAMEN, &c.
W. WOODGATË.
Notification of His Excellency Chau Phya Rawewongsa Maha Kosa Thibodi, Minister for Foreign Affairs, to the Merchants of every volan, Race, and Language, who visit Bangkok to trade.
BE IT KNOWN TO ALL, I have consulted with H. B. M. Consul, the U. S. Consul, and the Portuguese Consul, who is also Acting esul for France, on the following topics: At the present day many more Merchant vessels come to Bangkok to trade than formerly. throw their Ballast, Stone, Sand, and Earth, into the Bed of the River. Ere long the River will become shallow, and the Channel will structed, so that it will be difficult for Merchant ships, and trading vessels to come in and go out.
Seamen, Lascars, and others of the Ships' Crews also go on Shore, wandering about on the Sabbath, and during the day. At night and is through with their work, they wander about, drink liquor to intoxication, and quarrel with the Citizens, Seamen, Lascars, and others the Ships' Crew: 'n some instances they have cut and stabbed people to death, and difficulties have originated frequently. The three ls are aware of all these facts, and have consented that we shonid notify the Foreign Merchant Vessels coming here to trade, under r control, as well as the vessels that are under the control of the Siamese, that they are henceforth forbid throwing Ballast, Stone, Sand, 4 Earth, in any distance near the Bar within 7 fathoms deep, and any where in the Bed of the River. If Ballast, Stone, Sand, and Earth, **to be discharged, report to the Consuls, or to the Siamese authorities, that they may designate a place, after which it may be discharged. Captains and Masters of vessels disobey this Proclamation, and persist in throwing their Ballast within the prescribed limits, they shall bined from 80 to 200 Ticals, according to the nature of their offence: for a slight offence they will be fined 80 Ticals, for a grave
fence they will be fined as high as 200 Ticals.
:
Let Captains and Masters of vessels prohibit their Seamen, Lascars, and others of their Crew, having weapons and knives, and going Shore, except on business, or to purchase Food, and then let them be in charge of a responsible Officer. If Captains and Masters of els do not prohibit their Seamen, Lascars, and others of their Crew, but allow them to wander about on Shore, the Officers whose sness it is will seize and deliver them to their Consuls. The Consuls will punish them, and the case will be reported to His Siamese Majesty.
His Gracious Majesty Phra Bard Somdetch Boromanat Bophit Phra Chaum Klau, Cháu yu Hua, the First King of Siam, has been rised of these Regulations, and the Royal Order has been issued: Whereas Foreign Merchant vessels have been prohibited, these must be the Regulations of the Realm. Therefore Ships belonging to this Capital, Royal Ships, and the Ships of the Farmers, that trade in feign Ports, and all vessels having Ballast, ought to be, and are hereby equally forbidden. If they disobey these Regulations, and st in throwing their Ballast in any distance near the Bar, within 7 fathoms deep, or any where in the Bed of the River, the Captaius, and Masters of said vessels shall be similarly fined. A part of the fine must be given to the informer, and the remainder shall belong to Realm, and must be delivered over to the Royal Treasury. Let all Traders know these Regulations and obey them in every particular. This Notification is given, Monday, 2d of the waxing of the 7th month, in the year of the Minor Serpent, 9th of the decade, and ta of the Reign of our Sovereign.
