HONGKONG

NEW CODE

COGICAL

We have received from the Hongkong Observatory, a new code of meteorological signals which comes into force at Hongkong on New Year's Day. They are the same as Rose at present in use at Shanghal, and will be hoisted on the maat beside the time-ball at

Kowloon Point for the information of masters 'of vessels leaving the port. They do not neces sarily imply that bad weather is expected. The siguals are as follows-

A cone point upwards indicates a typhoon to

the North of the Colony.

A cone point upwards and drum below in dicates a typhoon to the North-East of the

Colony.

A drum indicates a typhoon to the East of

the Colony..

A cone point downwards and drum below

indicates a typhoon to the South-East of the

Colony,

A cone polot downwards indicates a typhoon the South of the Colony.

A cone point downwards and ball below indicates a typhoon to the South-Wast of the Colony.
