MUCH LOSS AND BUFFERING FEARED,
Writing from Wuchang, on July 18 & N. C. Daily News correspondent. Rays-I regret to have to inform you that letters have just reached me, both from foreigners and Chinese up the Han River, that in two places at least, the Han River has broken ita banks in the neighbourhood of Anlufa and Chinkow.
On Thursday, July 14, at about 11 a.m. the left bank of the river gave way above Arlu, between the city and Hsin Chi, a small but busy mart about 10 li from Aniu.
The same evening the inner em- bankment close by the city itself just i outside Cross Street was in serious danger. The water rose steadily until it was within a few inches of the top, when fortunately for the city, the waters were stayed and indeed slightly receded.
