LEFT HONGKONG-

Nanking, July 17. A message from Foochow re- ports the arrival of the Chinese warships Yat Sen and Hal Ho at Mamol, near Foochow yesterday.

The Yat Sen is one of the three cruisers which sailed for the South recently and, together with the Ninghai, which arrived in Shang- hai on Saturday, and the Hai Yung, anchored off Castle Peak Bay, Hongkong a short while ago. Since leaving British waters the movements of these three cruisers have been ahrouded in mystery. The cruiser Hai Ho left Taku Bar on July 6 accompanied by the Yung Hsiang and the Chu "@Yu, their departure giving rise to the rumour they were leaving for the South to join the Canton Navy, This rumour, however was soon vessels turned up at Tsingtao.~ Reuter,
