After due enquiries nothing was found on which to alarge the man and he was liber- ated on Jum 15. On the croning of that date he met the district watchman who had effected lits arrest in the first instanes and promised him $40 if he would not interfere with him again in his donlings. The men arranged to meet the next day, the watchman reported the matter and on their uoxt neoting the prisoner was arrested after th monoy had been handed over.

DR. SUN YAT-SEN'S LATEST.
Startling Scheme to Overthrow President Yuan.
Japan Offered Freedom of Action in China la Return
for Assistance.
Shanghai, Received June 17. The North Ching Daily News publishes a letter alleg ad to have been written by Dr. Sun Yat-sen to a high per- sonage in Japan offering the Japanese freedom of action in Chins for uiding the People's Party to overthrow Pre- sident Yuan Shih-kai, and placing the party in power.
The writer of the letter offers Japan the same position in China as Britain occupies in India without the attendant responsibilities, while he says that Britain is not deceived as to President Yuan's ability to govern and therefore will not block the scheme. He also says that China will know no peace until the People's Party.realises its aime.
The correspondence has been disclosed by a Revolu tionary who does not agree with this policy.
The whole scheme is hare-brained, and it is not suggested that the Japaneso seriously consider it.

Shanghai. Received - June 17,
The Nurth China Daily News prints a very long fatter alleged to have been writton by Dr. Sau Yat-sen to a high personage in Japan stating that it is a foregona moniusion that the Mintang will revolt some day, and if a powerful nation offered its assistance the struggle would not be prolongai.

The letter ways it is natural that the Revolutionaries should first seek this aid of Japan, and afterwards, when Japan has assisted. Chiun to re wganiseabe Administration and develop hor resources, China would throw open all trade centroa to Japanese labour and morehouts and coable Japan lo monopoliso commerce in China. As a result, Japan would leap to the forefront among the world's greatest Powers.
The North China Daily News, in a leading article on the subject, describes the lotter as a fantastic document which will undoubtedly batreated with ridicule in Japan.
