THE STRUGGLE FOR CHANGSHA.

AMAZING FORCED MARCHES! BY"" IRONSIDES."

[UNITED PRESS)

Present military happenings in in Hunan Province will make up one of the most interesting and exciting chapters in the history of Chinese warfare. The retreat from Changsha, the Provincial capital, of the insurgents, comprising the Kwangsi armies and the Iron- sides

of Chang Fu Fui, was as dramatic as their advance, their movements in both cases being car ried out with amazing swiftness.

Within 51 period of hardly ten days Changsha was under two governments, and the brief rule of the invaders was decidedly disas trous, as vast extortions were made,

The strike of the 700, fitters, carpenters and merchanics of the French Tramway, Electric Light and Water Company, which com- menced on June 18, in Shanghai, continues. The effects of the ab- Rence of the fitters from the tram sheds have made themselves felt at last, as several, trams are of the road and in need of repairs that cannot be carried out at present.

Changsha is about 250 miles from the border of Kwangst, and for an ordinary traveller o cover that distance by foot would require at least ten days. The Kwangai armies covered the distance in a little less than two weeks, meeting with prae- tically no resistance all the way, nud capturing town after town. It is difficult to conceive how it was possible, and it was certainly the first time in the history of Hunan fighting that such a sensa- tional advance was made by in- vaders from the border into the heart of the Province..

STRONG COMMENT BY MAGISTRATE.

"I am very much concerned with the fact of a European going into the witness box, electing to give evidence, and then telling lics. I have no doubt whatever that the European in the case struck the re- venue officer. It is quite possible that the Chinese are interested par- ties, but the Malay was not. I ar very much disappointed that any European should go into the wit- ness box, when he need not, and tell lies."

Thus the Second Police Magis rate (Mr. P. S. Williams) at Singapore last week, in imposing fine of $20 on Charles Herbert Whitehead, of the oil depot ship Authenia, for assaulting a public servant.

It was stated that Whitehead, coming upon a revenue officer who men, struck the revenue officer' had. attempted to arrest two of his twice with his fist.

The two men (Chinese) were also charged, one with assault and beth with obstructing a public servant in the execution of his duty.

The story of one of the Chinese was that he was beaten by the re venue. officer, ran away, and fell exhausted. In that condition, lying on the road surrounded by several revenue officers, he was found by: Whitehead.

He did not ece Whitehead strike' the revenue, officer, or anyone. Whitehead had been summoned by the other Chinese, who had also ran away from the revenue officer. Whitehend stated that when be arrived and found the second re- cused lying exhausted, having been MD severely handled that the shirt wag torn off his back, he (White- head) abused the revenue officer and the latter's companions and two policemen. He struck no one.

Inspector King, prosecuting, gaid he was inclined to accept the story of the Chinese accused, who said he had been assaulted by the revenue officer, but that did not make any difference to the charge against Whitehead.
