By good luck one of the men was captured and in- spector Philips who was passing at the time, promptly arrested him. The full story of the attempted robbery is a rather intriguing one. It appears that about 9.30 a.m. yesterday, Lui Sau was sitting int the ground floor of fils house with three other Chinese. A knock was heard on the door, and a voice enquired for Mr. Lai. The door was opened and four men entered. When asked what was their busi- ness they simply shouted "search". They then proceeded to try and search Mr. Lui, but he resisted. fie was struck on the chest, whilst one of the men produced a pistol. In siile of this Mr. Lui assume the agressive in such a way, that the robbers took to their heals, with the outraged cattle dealer and foki named Li Yip; in close at- tendance.

After a long chase they succced- ed in catching one of the men, and as inspector Philips was pass- ing at the time, he arrested him. The robbions, were entirely un- successful ia their project, thanks to the cool manner in which Mr. Liq treated their threats.
