Trade. —The trade of this port Las been very dull during tlie year. Among
tlie chief causes may be mentioned the establishment of customs posts by the Per
sians along the Mekran border, payment of duties on Mekran imports at several
places, and a great decrease in the fish caught. The latter is the chief business of a
large number of traders. The market rate for dried fish at Colombo and Hong Kong
where it is generally exported, was also low throughout the year and as a result
a number of traders suffered heavy losses.
