Tokyo, Oct. 16. According to reports from Har- bin, 25 suspects have been arrested in connexion with the murder of Mrs. Woodruff, and a grilling examination has revealed that two of them are apparently responsible, including Chang Nan-yon, an ex- soldier and leader of a notorious gang of kidnappers.
