THE COTTON
STRIKE
A SHOCKING STABBING AFFRAY OCCURRED | GOVERNMENT MAY
IN A CAUSEWAY BAY FLAT, THE RESIDENCE OF A WELL-KNOWN CHINESE BUSINESS MAN, IN THE EARLY HOURS OF THIS MORNING.
As the result of a desperate unequal fight with an armed cat-burglar, a lad of fifteen was fatally stabbed, his father was badly wounded and disfigured, an amah is lying at the Government Civil Hospital in a serious condition, and two other women servants were less seriously hurt.
The scene of the sensational affair was the first floor of No. 40, Tung Lo Wan Road, the residence of Mr. Leung Wing-suen, who is a son-in-law of Mr. Ip Lanchuen, prominently connected with the Chinese General Chamber of Commerce.
His oldest son, Leung Sze-sau, a student of fifteen, was sleeping on a settee in the sitting-room, when the intruder appeared at about 4.50 am. The shrieking of a parrot is believed to have awakened him, but he was stabbed through the throat and shoulder before he could make a move or raise the alarm.
An elderly amah also heard the parrot's squawk, appeared at the doorway and was struck down by the murderer, who had thrown himself back against the wall. She was badly wounded on the head and back. The amahs and Mr. Leung Wing-suen also aroused ap- peared one by one, and as they arrived, were attacked and wounded. Mr. Leung Wing-suen lost an ear be- sides suffering other wounds. POSSIBLE CLUE DISCOVERED
Fear then seems to have gripped the assailant after this grim drama in the darkness and he broke away from Mr. Leung and leaped to the street below from verandah, a drop of from fifteen to twenty feet. He escaped.
Police later found the weapon, an axe-shaped knife of the type used by rattan workers, which may possibly prove a valuable clue. The knife was found in the gut. ter in the street, having been dropped by the murderer In his precipitate flight.
Mrs. Leung and two small children were the only, inmates of the flat to escape the attention of the murderer.

London, Sept. 6. Despite all the rumours to the contrary, the Derby winner, April the Fifth, will go to the post for the St. Leger, according to his actor-owner, Mr. Tom Walls.
Mr. Walla's decision to run the horse has come as a great surprise to the vast mujority of race-goers, the general opinion being reflected in the fact that the horse was not even mentioned at last night's call- over at the Victorin Club.
"April the Fifth loaves Good- wood for Doncaster to-morrow," Mr. Tom Walls announced late last night..
