The indications are that Cheklang can hold this sector unless the attackers are heavily reinforced. Tupan Lu Yung-halang has divided his army, estimated to be 00,000 strong, into thred armies only. The first, commanded by General Ho Feng-lin, was in action to-day. The second army, commanded by General Chen You-san, 20,000 strong, is stationed at Hu-chow in the Chang Hain sector, Taihu Lake region, guarding the approaches to Lung Wha and Shanghal and the Hangchow railway, which is all open. The third army is remaining within Chekiang borders for provincial defence. It le made up of two divisions, each of 8,000 troopa, stationed at Hangchow and Ning-po, on the Cheklang border,

An illuminating incident occurred in Shanghai just outside the Settlement boundarles, when soldiers bayonettod and murdered two ricksha coolies a hundred yards from the Szechuan Road, where trams were running. Two Americans were unwilling witnesses of the affair but were unable to protect the coolies. Mr. Lloyd Brown, a cafe proprietor, accompanied by an American-sailor, entered the districts of Chapel on a business mission after dark. They were not questioned on entering, but the sentry halted them later. When one risksha boy protested he received a bayonet in the stomach, whereupon another soldier clubbed the other ricksha boy, to death.

Conscription is proceeding in many sections of Chinese territory odjacent to Shanghai, and is having the effect of bringing in thou- sands seeking foreign protection.

According to information issued from Lu Yung-hsiang's head- quarters, the Kinngsu troops heavily attacked Hwangtu and Anting within twenty miles of Shanghal to-day, and were ropulsed. An- other attack is developing. There was some bomb dropping from two Cheklang aeroplanes manned by Russians, but no casualties resulted therefrom.-Reuter.
