GERMANS LAND AND
 FIGHT CHINESE MOB
BIusjacketS and Rebels Battle
 In HankOW.

Advices received at the German for tign office from Hankow report that German blueJackets, re-enforced by German local residents, have been landed at Hankow and are fighting in the streets with a Chinese mob.
 The report states that detachments were landed from the German cruiser ger and Vaterland. Members of the German colony volunteered to support the sailors.
 The admiralty has no further details. but understands that the Germans are cooperating in the international land ing corps movement directed by the Japanese naval commander.
 The large German cruiser Gneisenau Is due at Hankow with Vice Admiral von Krosigk, commander of the Ger man Asiatic squadron.
 AS the German vice admiral has rank superior to- that of the American rear admiral. it is probable that he will supersede the latter in chief com mand of the international naval forces.
 The Chinese imperial government has begun aggressive preparations for the recapture or Hankow and Wuchang. The first trainload of 4,0O0 troops from the north has arrived and camped north of Hankow. Several thousand more soldiers are on the way.
 The imperial naval force in the river has been augmented by the arrival of one of the navy's modern gunboats, which carried Admiral Sah Chen Ping who immediately took command of the situation.
 Five additional foreign warships have dropped anchor in the river. Vice Admiral Sir Alfred L.. Winsloe, com mander of the British eastern fleet. ar rived on the British dispatch boat Alacrity. #-."#
 The revolutionists have offered a reward of $500 for the capture of Jui Cheng. formerly viceroy of Szechuan.
 The revolutionary determination to end the regime of official graft was brought sharply to attention by the execution of an officer who had been appointed to collect funds for the rebel cause. He was caught In an attempt to divert some of the money to his own pocket and was promptly beheaded.
