The Chinese raiders, after an ab- sence of several days, made three raids before 9 o'clock to-night, and drew heavy fire trom the Japanese warships.
The first appearance of the raid- ers was but a brief one but they returned just before 8 o'clock and bombed for at least fifteen minutes.

The third rald was staged at about 8 o'clock and bombs dropped. by the

One bomb struck the cotton mill in Tangtsepoo, owned by Jardine's. and started a fire which was only extinguished after a stiff night by
fire engines.

It is not known how many bombs were dropped by the Chinese planes or with what success, but there is no doubt that the Japanese war- ships were sorely harassed.---

FANTASTIC CLAIM BY JAPANESE
Tokyo, Sept. 18. The latest admission of Jap- anese
war casualties was made yesterday, and like its predeces- sors, is obviously very much of an under-statement.
The statement says that up to Thursday, 1.014 Japanese troops were killed. The statement does
not, however, explain whether this covers the whole of China, or Shanghai only, or one sector of the Shanghal line only.
Twenty-three Japanese planes. have been shot down, but the Japanese naval air arm makes the fantastic claim of having destroyed 205 Chinese machines. 95 of them alleged to have been shot down in aerial combat.
The others, the claim runs, were destroyed together with 34 hangars during raids on Chinse aero- dromes.
The communique admits that a Japanese plane was shot down on the Shanghal front yesterday.—
