Would Supply Munitions
For Chinese Rebellion

San Francisco, Dec. 22.-Details of
a plot to supply the revolutionary par
ty of China with large supplies Of mu-
nitions may be barred as the result of
an investigation Of the steamer Catan-
ia s cargo, held up by Port Collector
Davis. He matted the shipment, con-
signed to Yokohama, after her officers
asked permission to transfer it to an
other orient bound ship.
AT first, it was thought the muni.
tions were going to Russia but with a
revolution reported on in China, the
case may assume q different aspect.
Customs officials now think the cargo
was destined ultimately for China, that
it was perhaps only one of many, and
that it was sent early so that rebels
against the overturn of the republic
must be prepared for speedy develop.
ments.
The explosives came originally from
Puget Sound on the steamer +. s. Loop.
The manager of the Catania line said
today the goods were consigned "to
order" hence it is thought here that
the "order" at the other end might
come from Chinese revolutionists.
