SEQUEL TO A COLLISION
Tientsin, March 15,

Two Chinese, a man and a woman, were drowned and five junks were sunk on Wednesday morning, when the inward-bound cargo steamer, the Hsin Lee (1,200 tons) belonging to the Ching Kee Steam Navigation Company collided with some junka laden with salt while the junk men attacked the steamer and beat and robbed the officers and members of the crew.

stopped with a number of other similar craft to lond at the wharf at Nankai The steamer was unable to stop at once owing to the strength of the current al- though the anchor was lowered.

They tied the hands of the Japanese Master (Captain MI. Sakamoto) and beat him severely and then proceeded to beat the Second Officer, also a Japanese, and the members of the crew. Proceeding to smash the instru- ments on the bridge, the mob succeeded in turning the engine signal to astern and the engineers in the engine room responded to the supposed order with the result that the Hsin Lee went astern and struck two more junks which sank immediately. Ton persons from these two junks were hurled into
