A number of rice merchant FROZEN SMOKED FISH
had a conferansa and decided to sell their present rice stocks as cheaply as possible. It is said that vary little rice compa from Wusich now, but there la A fair quantity being received from Teingpoo and other surrounding places. There is noti much rice left in the godawos because a quantity of the grain has been handed over to the City Magistrate for cheapsale amongst the poor. It is, therefore, hoped
that more rice will be received in Shanghai soon in order to sellere the market and bring down the prices.
One rich man is trying to "de j hia bit "by petitioning the Magis trate to sell cheaper rice in his village. He states that, if this is done, he will give 100 piculs from. his own stock to be distributed. All expenses in connexion with the transportation of rise to bis: village will be borne by the philanthropist.
There was a rush on Sunday at the cheap rice agencies at: Great East Garb and the South Gate when cheap rice was sold to the poor people. The agencies opened at Sa-m, and closed at 4 m. during which time some 30 piculs were disposed of As there were many who did not know of this cheap distribution.. it is expected there will be larger crowds today.
Looting has been reported in Pootung. A wheel-barrow coolie was pushing his barrow along when suddenly six or Seven hooligans held him up and rut open his bags of rice. He yelled! out and the robbers made off. The case was reported to the chief of police, who ordered a general starch in the huts of the Taupers. In several of the-huts they found some rice, bat noar of the inmates were present, so the rice has been confiscated.
Another case happened on Sun- day afternoon. Some 300 women and children, with baskets in their hands, made straight for a certain shop. The shopkeepers heard that they were coming and immediately put up their shutters. Other rice shops in the surround- ing district followed their example. When the chief of police heard secting of of the matter he sent officers workers unanimity must prevail. round to urge the shopkeepers 10 They must out have one section re-open their stops, saying that deciding to do one thing on their the police would guarantee their væn and another section deciding safety. upon something else.
