A collision occurred in the Lower Huangpu at about, 6.30 p.m. last Thursday, the vessels involved being the Kailan Mining Administration's chartered. str, Revnefjell and a Japanese collier named the Toke Baru. What. actually happened is not clear, but it seems that while the Ravnefjell was outward bound, in ballast, and the Tokei Baru was coming up the stream, a native junk fouled the Japanese ship in the fairway about 8,000 fedt to the northward of Tungkou Light Buoy. The junk was sunk and the two large vessels came into collision, both afterwards being beached on the Pootung side of the stream in the vicinity of the accident. The junk stated to be lying sunk io the] middle of the fairway, with two masts visible above water. It is be-
Tieved that all the occupants of the! junk were saved, but information px} matter ig not very definite, The Raynefjell was holed, rather seriously it is thought, on her port side, while the bows of the To Maru were rather badly crumpled.
