JUNKMAN'S SUSPICION EXPLODED

Story Of Japanese

Attack Recalled

To-day further light was shed on the remarkable story told by Chan Fook, a fisherman, who alleged ho had been given an Injection with a hypodermic syringe by Japanese marines some two weeks ago. It was omeintly disclosed by the medical au thorities that no sign of polson could be found in exhaustive tests.

Chan. It will be recalled, reported to the Police that while he and a crew of seven were cruising in a junk near the Canton river dolin on the after- noon of November 14, a Japanese dès- troyer ordered them to stop. A party of about 15 Japanese marines came on board, forced them to swallow Rome yellow liquit and gave ench of them an injection of some sort with a hypodermie syringe. All clight were then set adrift in a sampan and their Junie was set afre, he alleged.

After he had mude the report, Chan was taken to the Queen Mary Hos- pital for observation and examina- lion. In the night, however, he slipped away from the hospital and since then has not been located.
