THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH,
THIEVES. EQILED.
MIDNIGHT PILFERERS CAUGHT IN THE ACT.
Returning to his home at mid- night on Tuesday, Mr. W. J. Carroll, the local broker, surprised two motor cycle thieves in the act of dismantling a machine In the garage, which is attached to the house of Mr. A. W. J. Simmons on Bowen Road. It was sufficient that the light of an electric torch was thrown on them, to make them take to their hosis.
Mr. Simmons was roused and immediately took up the chase on the cycle, from which only the horn had been removed. After proceeding along Bowen Road for the best part of a mile without meeting any suspicious characters, Mr. Simmens was returning, when caught sight of the fugitives and once more went in pursuit.
The thieves, laden only with a bag, which, it is presumed, con-
tained tools ant would have been used for carrying their spoils after stripping the cycle, made good their escape by scailering up the hillside.
Judging by the number of petty thefts from cars and motor cycles which have been reposted from the district recently, it is thought that the two men sighted on Tuesday are those who have been consis tently engaged in victimising the residents having machines stored in adjunct garages,

Both of these ships were built by Scott's, of Greenock, who have turned out so many other Blue Funnel shipe.
