ALLEGED ATTEMPTED
ROBBERY.
CHINESE FOUND IN GAS
WORKS. A
The West Point police received information that an attempt would be made to rob the Sikh watchman at the Gas Works, Queen's Road: West, who is also a moneylander, some time, between 11 p.m. and I am. last night. It was stated that the watchman would be struck with a hammer after which his shed in the works would be ransacked、 A police ambush was laid and at 1.50 am, two Chinese entered the works when they were immediately seized. One of them was found in possession of a hammer.
This morning they were formally charged before Mr. J. R. Wood when a remand was asked for co that Mr. H. K. Holmes, the Crown Solicitor, could appear.
BOXING STADIUM,
AN IMPORTANT SHANGHAI SCHEME.
A group of Shanghai sportsmen, who prefer to hide their identity for the present, are interesting themselves in the crection of a large boxing stadium located in Great Western Road, within the limits of the French Concession where semi-monthly contests will be held. Work was on April 11 begun on the stadium, which will be of the most modern semi- elliptical type of wood and con- crete construction, and will easily accommodate several thousand spectators without crowding.
Arrangements have been concluded between several local boxers for bouts in the
future, while in addition, matches between aspir-. ants in the various navies at pre- sent in port are in the course of that negotiation. It is hoped boxers from Australia, New Zea- land, Hongkong and the Philip- pines may be induced to come to Shanghai for championship matches.
