ger with menaces, began be- fore Mr. R.W.S. Winter ot Kowloon yesterday.

In a brier outline of the case, Detective Sub-Inspector Chan Ki- yick told the Court that on June 12 A postman at the Kowloon Post Tice was sorting and stamping letters when he came across a letter with a hard object inside. He turned the letter over and found that it was marked "Ammunition enclosed" in Chinese.
The postman turned the letter over to us superiors who took It to the police. 'Police investi- gations traced the letter to de- fendants. Chow
Ying-fung,__accountant of the Lucky Enamel Factory, 142 Pau Cheung Street, in evidence said that he was used by de- fondants to negotiate the turn- ing over of $10,000 by his cm- ployer, Chow Yult-ho, to defen- daits after letters demanding that sum had been received.
After several witnesses had given evidence, hearing was ad. journed untli August 8.
