THE HONGKONG TELEGRAPH,

HANKOW CRISIS..

(Continued From Page 1.),

Regardless of the actual events

which are reported to be happening, however, what appears to have the solid foundation of fact is that a part of the Cantonese programme Includes interruption of river traffic at night. For obvious reasons the Southerners are said to be concen trating on the prevention of night navigation in the region between Hankow and Klukiang, as ships passing at night cannot be so easily subjected to their inspection. An- other aspect of the situation is be- lieved to have a definite booring on the Maritime Customs, which, ac- cording to reports, the Southerners aim at absorbing.
