十一月，學士梅啟照言：「招商局自歸併旗昌輪船，各國輪船之利漸減，然祗在香港、福州、寧波、上海、天津、牛庄、長江等處碼頭，不如推廣，竟令其赴東西洋各國。 In the eleventh month Academician Mei Qizhao wrote: 'Since the company absorbed the Russell fleet, foreign steamers' profits have declined, but its service is limited to wharves at Hong Kong, Fuzhou, Ningbo, Shanghai, Tianjin, Niuzhuang, and along the Yangtze; it should be expanded to send vessels to countries in the East and West.
