BRITISH GIRL SHOT WHILE IN FLANCE'S SIDECAR.

*

Miss Eileen Smith, a 19-year-old girl, was murdered while driving with her finance in his motor-cycle combination in Cairo. She was the daughter of an official in the firm Egyptian Marketa, Ltd., whose headquarters are in London.

The murder took place on a lonely · road on the outskirts of Calro at 10 - o'clock in the evening. The couple, who were on their way home, had pulled up for a moment when two natives suddenly appeared and fred. at point-blank range.

Mr. Ronald Lilley, the girl's; fiance, who le a British constable attached to the Royal Guard, ducked and avoided injury, but Miss Smith; scated in the sidecar, received the contenta of one barrel of a sporting gun in her left side and died at once..

The murderers immediately turn- ed tall and, so far, have not been caught. The Public: Security De. partment has announced that the motive for the outrage was probably robbery, but, according to a later rumour, which has not been confirm- ed it was the outcome of a dispute between Mr. Lilley and some Egyptians in 'a'cafe..

Miss Smith, who was born in Egypt, lived with her parents at Hellopolis,

The evils of the so-called "mosquito Press in the .Colony were laid bare in a case in which a young Chinese nurse was given judgment for $1,000 in an action for libel against one of these publications. Counsel for complainant protested vigorously against the practice of publishing disgusting and baseless libels of this sort. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL carries a full report of the case.

A warrant for the arrest of the compradore of the Equitable Eastern Banking Corporation, who absconded on August 2, was issued during the week. A reward of $15,000 is offered for information leading to the arrest of the man, who is sworn to have stolen silver bars to the amount of $884,132.83. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL contains full details.

A European clerk of the N.A.A.F.I., who pleaded guilty to the embezzlement of funds to the amouunt of over $2,000, was fined $250 at the Magistracy, counsel on both sides making eloquent pleas for leniency. The OVERLAND CHINA MAIL contains a complete report.

Items of special interest to coastal marine officers, exclusive to the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL, are included in the present issue.

The latest and most comprehensive information 'on the situation in China, including articles by a special correspon- dent, also appears in the OVERLAND CHINA MAIL.
