Hongkong. May Avery great
destruction 10 life and property was
caused at Canton Thursday evening
by the explosion of gunpowdef
magazine. Twenty-one bodies nave
already been recovered from the
ruins Hundreds were injured.
Fifteen buildings were RACED to
the ground and over 100 were Sc
riously wrecked A section 200 feet
long from the massive city wall was
thrown down. The historical many
story pagoda escaped with slight IN
juries.
Officials and staffs of hospitals
are doing their best to succor the
sufferers. In the Shamien suburb,
where foreigners live, terrific
shock was caused by the explosion
but the residents were unframed.
The city of Canton IS about six
miles in circumference and is en-
closed By walls about 20 feet thick
and 25 to 40 feet high. There are 16
gates into the city, besides two wa
ter gates.
Inc famous u4HG-StplN PdoON'''
dating from the beginning of the
middle ages, is situated in the wes-
tern part of what is known as the
old city,
/ Foreigners reside in the Shamien
suburb. founded in 1859 on an aru-
fetal island on the Honan side of
! the river The population OF Canton
is estimated at about 900, 900.
Some idea of the force of the eX'
plosion may be gathered from the
fact that roofs of houses mile dis
tant from the exploded magazine
were blown off. 4 number of impor
tant Chinese and foreign establish
ments were completely demolished
Bodies recovered from the rum
in the vicinity of the magazine Wer'
shockingly mutilated. many corpse
of men and women being withou
heads The officer in charge of tn
magazine was among those kille'
and when his body was recovered
pipe was found clutched in HI
hand. which suggested a possihl
cause of the explosion. The findncia
losses are enormous.

Reid. the Paisley man who mysteri-
ously disappeared from Heidelberg
iast July. having been arrested in
Austria. was tried at Feldkirch and
was convicted and sentenced to 20
years imprisonment
The case illustrates a singularity OF
the Austrian criminal law. Generally
speaking. a premedltated murder is
punishable by death In Austria. but In
cases where between the time OF the
murder and the arrest the prisoner
has been punished for some other
crime a sentence OF capital punish.

In this case the murderer had
