MYSTERIOUS CASE
(From Our Own Correspondent).
Shanghai, "August 27.
The Chinese Customs have confiscated a British tramp steam- « er, the ss: Ballshead, which recently brought a mysterious cargo to Shanghai a large number of valuable Australian racing
The dogs were landed, secretly, in contravention of the Chinese regulations. It was alleged, at the time of the discovery of the Doc. Intarity Sets, air 1923.Aug. 53 breach, that a prominent resident of Shanghai, whose home is in &pr.oots ownew) 304432 the French concession, was closely associated with the plan to smug-

Assistance of Chinese soldiers, it is said, was obtained at the point of landing, without the knowledge of the commanding officers of the men on duty Whether they were hoodwinked. or bribed into allowing and even assisting the debarkation of the greyhounds, is not known.
The first discharge of the novel cargo was made without arousing any suspicions, but later a revenue cruiser detected discarded kennels floating in the Whangpoo and, on pursuing en- quiries, discovered that the Ballshead had had dogs aboard.
The Chinese authorities are offering, the steamer for sale public auction, it is announced.
British and the
Consular authorities are not likely to pro test such an action, inasmuch as the facts are apparently clearly established.
There has been no suggestion made of any plans for the pro- secution of the importer of dogs, even if he is known, and it 18 not definite that the author!- tier have that information:-
