Tientsin, July 27.
It is understood that the Japanese authorities have intimated that they will no longer require Outgoing ships to call at the D.K.K. Wharf for examination.
This is due to the fact that the swift current of the Haiho, strengthened by a freshet, makes it difficult to pull in at the wharf on the way down-river.
The Jardine's s. Yatshing and Hoihow today proceeded from the British Bund to the D.K.K. Wharf stern first.
After completing their examination, the two ships steamed up-river, but when they tied up their sterns to ihe Bund before trying to swing around, the cables snapped.
Neither ship has yet been able to sail—Reuter.
