Shanghai, Aug. 23: Failure to dislodge the Chinese positions in the Pootung and Kiangwan areas ships anchored in the Whangpoo has compelled the Japanese war-
during the past week to con- centrate their vessels along the China coast around the vicinity of Woosung.
Military information released this morning reveals that 20 Já- panese warships acluding оде aircraft carrier are now around Failungkang, 20 miles east of Shanghal on the coast and about 15 miles south of Kacchino Beach. It is believed that the Japanese are planning to make a Dnal effort to land reinforcements there in an attempt to attack the Chinese Unes from the rear at Pootung.
Another battleship is, at Chuan- sha, situated south of Pallung- kang, while six others are patrolling along the Woosung and Wentsaopang area.

FIGHTING IN SHANGHAI
Shanghai, Aug. 22. “ Fighting in Shanghai continues on Sunday with undiminished violence. In the early morning the scene was illuminated by the the huge are in Yangtsepoo on northern part of the Settlement. The Fire Brigade was unable to in- tervene, owing to the unceasing sniping and gunfire.
Whilst it had been agreed on Sunday that at midday the Ja- panese would evacuate Garden Bridge, between Hongkew and the Central Settlement, Japanese naval troops in the evening were still
there
Eye witnesses travelling along the waterfront in a motorboat on Sunday state that the wharfs, and little damaged. Holes have been godowns are still comparatively

not seem to be as great as was at first believed.
On Sunday afternoon, 500 Ja- removed panese prisoners were from the Ward Road Gaol The
Japanese protested. As the gaol
in the danger zone of Yangtae- poo, altogether 6000 prisoners have been removed in the last few days.
The public utilities services in Shanghai all appeared to be work- ing well on Sunday, except the gas supply.
Very little Information is ob- tainable about the Japanese rein-; forcements now reaching Shang- hai, but on Sunday afternoon one new Japanese transport arrived at Hongkew, but it is not known how. many troops actually disembarked.
The morale among the foreigners in Shanghai is excellent. Most of the men who are able to do so have offered themselves as a spe- clal police force.
