AUCTIONED.
FORMER BUS' CO'S, GARAGES PASS TO NEW OWNER
After having been previously with- drawn on account of the reserve price not being reached, the six houses be- longing to the Aberdeen Kai Fong Moter Bus and Transport Co., Ltd. (now in liquidation), at Ncs, 6-11 Sai On Road, Aberdeen, with a plece of adjoining vacant land, the whole hav- ing an area of 18,420 sq. ft., were for the second time put up for auction at Messrs. Lammerts' rooms yestor day.
The billdings during the existence of the late company were occupied an garages, the upper floors being let out as tenements.
At the upset price of $20,000, con- aldered to be very much below their i normal value, bids of $500 were call- ed for, but only one was offered, this being by Mr. Ngan Shing-kwan, Managing Director of the China Motor Bus Co. (1933), Ltd.
He met with no opposition, and secured the property at $20,700.-

NEGRO LYNCHED
MISSOURI MOB TAKES MAN FROM GAOL
St. Joseph, Miss., Nov, 20.
A furious mob of 7,000 persons battered down the door of the Kaol here to-day and lynched negro youth, who had been charged with ill-treating a white girl.
This is the second time within a week that an Americaa' mob has taken the law into its own hands, and hanged a prisoner before he was convicted. The previous case was that of the alleged kidnappers held in prison at San Jose, Cal.
The Missouri mob acted swiftly and before troops of the National Guard, called out by the sheriff of in- St. Joseph, could muster to tervene. Army tanks were also rushed to the gaol in an attempt to disperse the crowd. They were too late.
beaten The negro was severely with clubs before he was lynched in the prison courtyard.--Reuter,
NEW CHINA SHIPS.
QUESTION OF USE OF BOXER FUNDS
London, Nov. 29, Mr. William Nunn, M.P., in the House of Commons to-day, drow the attention of the Government to the fact that the Chineas Gov- ernment was inviting tenders for four now ships for the Chinese coastal trade and suggested that In- the proceeds of the Boxer demnity Fund should not be used to compete with English shipping. Sir John Simon replied that the development of the Chinese coastal shipping necessarily entailed com- petition with British shipping, but added: "I am satisfied there is ground for effective represen- tations I understand the orders will be placed in Britain."
