YOURTH MEETING.
THE INFANT MORTGAGOR,
This morning at the Supreme Court, His Honour the Chief Justice, presiding in Origin- al Jurisdiction, delivered judgment in the cate of Li. Leung versus Tam Man Hing. In this cass the plaintiff claimed that he was of full age göd excecuted a mortgage for $10,000, When pressed for repayment he sued to have the mortgage set aside stating that he was an infant and was coerced into executing the indenture.
His Honour said that there was no doubt that the plaintiff fell among thieves, and was by them lad into the paths of vice and dissipation, but, like other infants he appeared to want to eat his cake and have it,
THE ÄNKING MURDER,
REVOLUTIONARY TERMS..
The Nanjangpas contained on Saturday ra productions of photographs' taken, at An-, king of Hua Hai-lin, Chás Pah-ping, glaie Koang Fu-ize, and Ma Tre-chi, allas Thong Han-tza. The picture of Hsu Hallin...was taken with his shirt off, just before his heart was, cut out by the panic-siriken, not to say cowardly," savage who had captured him. The photo of Cheng Peb-ping was taken after death, as he lay shot at the Anking Bureau of Ordnance. Ma Tre-chi's photograph repre- tents him in ordinary native clothes, but by this time his head must be hanging in a dage at the city gate of Anking with those of Haz Hsi-lin and Chen Fob-ping: The aliases adopted by the defunct revolutionists are not without interest; Chan Pah-ping's "Kuang Fu-tre" im plied that his ambition was to conquer the whole- Empire back to the possession of a purely Chinese dynasty. "Tsung Han-ize,” the allas of Ma Tre-ch'i, meant that he was working for the Chinese race and the restoration of a Cbl- nese dynagy. The aliasen are Historical and were taken from titles assumed by the founder. of the Eastern Han dynasty, who in the early years of the Christian era (A.D. 20-25) drove out and reconquered the Empire from the Usurper Wang Mang and other powerful' no. ex-bles who had taken upon themselves the pre-
After reviewing the facts as already recorded in these columns, and the authorities cited on behalf of both sides, his Honour said the most he could do would be to order the delivery up by the defendant to the plaintiff of the in. denture of mortgage, the subject matter of the sait upon payment by the plaintiff of the sum of $10,000. In the event of the $10,000 not being paid thed this 'action would be considered as dismissed. As regards the costs his Honour said that defendant's wife was mainly responsi- ble in the matter and ordered her to pay, the cosis.
