BIG SEIZURE ON BOARD A JUNK.

Sergeant Carson, in evidence, said that he was on patrol in the central fairway on the evening of November 7, when he saw a junk which was approaching witness' launch suddenly change its course and head for the junk anchorage.

Witness gave orders to follow the junk and when within 30 yards of the craft he shouted for the crew to lower the sail and stop. No reply was received and then witness proceeded to go alongside. By that time, the junk had itself gone alongside two cargo boats in the junk anchorage.
