On the ground that the pistol was found in a place accessible to many people, Mr. Horaca. Lo yes- terday made a successful applica tion to Major C. Wilson for the discharge of the Manager of the Kwong Wo Cheong firm, who was charged with possession of the automatic pistol. The evidence showed that the pistol was found concosled in a room on the firm's
premises, No. 803 Des Voeux Road
Central, and that a certain law student had stored most of his belongings there. The Kwong Wo Cheong firm, it is learned, afforda temporary residence to emigrants returning to Chins from the United
