LUNATICS AS FIREMEN
A BLAKING RIVER.
The tide was running out and the flames in the creek was very fierce Trees and piles in the banks-wig burned and every scrap of wood to the wicialy Numerous fish and crabs were killed. The incident created a good deal of excitement in the neighbourhood and the villagers all turned out Fortunately, no dwellings age in the vicinity of the river. It is pot kpore what caused the fire, but it is thought probable that some mischievous nativa. applied a lighted match to the floating oil There was lo a large quantity of oil on the sea share but, bli did not catch fire. Owing to the quantity of dangerous pil about the place, Mr. Pett left anumber of fireman with a length of hose at Pasir Panjang as a precaution.
The movements of the deceased prior to his death have an important bearing upon the crima.. Mr. Fong was one of the best known of the Chinese businers community, for he was a compradore in the Chipa Merchanis S. N. Company and in addition owned a small fleet of river launches himself. He was a well built man of about forty years of age and was a member of the Chinese Company, Shang. hai Volunteer Corps Oo Saturday afternoon he was present at the inspection of the S. FV. C. by Colonel Bayard with his company, and about belf-past six o'clock, on the unita being dismissed, be returned to his house at No, 14 Nasth. Sbance Road. Here he changed from his uniform into Chinese clothes, and was met by Sun Sze-tsun, the man under police "observation, who is described as a shoemaker in the native city. They went out together, ostensibly with the purpose of transacting some b siness, but from the moment of their leaving the house the movement of the men are un certain. Two different stories of what they did have been given, but in any case about sight o'clock the news was conveyed to Louza Police Station that the murder bad taken place. A Chinese constable conveyed the in- tolligence, stating that two shots had been fired and ibat a man was lying dead, or dying, on the ground at the corner of Ningpo and Kweichow Road. Detective Sub-lospector FitzGibbon, Sub-Inspector Johnson, and Detective Sergean! Macdonald immediately proceeded to the spot, which is only a very short distance from the station, and there, in a quiet and rather dark reality, lay the body of Mr. Foog. He was on on his back, bis head against the curb' of the pavement and blood oozed from a wound in the neck. On being raised and put in an ambu. lance it was found that his clothes were soaking with Blood
