Me. Sean O'Kelly, and thirteen ather members of the Irish Free, State delegation to Ottawa, reach Southampton this afternoon,

In an interview, he referred to his frequent informal conversa- tions with the Dominions Secretary, Mr. J. II. Thomas on the Irish question.

In the meantime, Yang Yu-lin, Governor of Jehol, has been instructed to offer armed resistance to any fur- ther Japanese attempt at invasion of the province. It is believed that the arrival in Manchuria of General Muto, who has been given control over the army as well as diplomatic affairs, will mark the commencement of a general onslaught against Jehol.

It may be noted that General Muto has with him the draft of the treaty which Japan expects to conclude with Mr. Pu Yi before formal recognition is extended.

Details of the treaty, disclosed at Changchun, re- veal that Manchukuo and Japan are to be allied for peace and for war. In the event of an attack by a third Power, such as Russia or China, Japan and Manchukuo will combine forces in the subsequent war...

LAU'S AGENCY IN FUNG MURDER

MUST BE PROVED DEFENCE ARGUES

BRIDGING GAP

Quotations from authorities and citation of cases occupied most of this morning's sitting of the Full Court's hearing of the defence case in law for the quashing of the conviction of Cheng Kwok-yau, found guilty last week of procuring the murder of George Fung.

Mr. Eldon Potter, K. C., dealt early with the point of Lau's agen- cy and reiterated his argument of yesterday that unless this could be established beyond all doubt, the Crown case must fall.

He attacked the admission of the Zimmern and Christio evidence and declared that the Crown had made it probative of the main fact.

"BRIDGING THE GAP.

"When I said there was no case for me to answer," he said, "Mr. Sheldon, in reply, made no effort to attribute any portions of evidence- to any particular issue.. He meré ly said the jury could bridge the gap between the accused and Tsui

"I challenge anyone," continued Mr. Potter, "to contend that Zim- mern and Christie are mixed up. with Tauf, and there is no connec ting link in Taul's evidence with the accused.""-~~

Mr. Potter ebntended that if the Crown could advance no evidence of agency, they could not argue on that point. The expedient, they
