Chance Arrest Of Chinese
Bandit Gang Reveals
Hiding Place

SHANGHAI. China, Nov. 24.--
The chance arrest Of a small ban
dit gang near Fukow, in Honan
province. has just revealed that
the bandits were using a famed
old Buddhist temple. on the road
between Ful1ow and Yenling to hold
captives prisoners while negotiating
with families for ransom.
Police raided the temple immedi-
ately after the arrests and took
ia number Of other members of the
gang, including the chieftain, a
wealthy citizen of Yengling, into
custody and released a score Of
prisoners at the same time.
The wealthy Yengling Chinese
had been contributing money for
the repair of the temple during
the last year and had his own
workmen on the job, so that moth
ing unusual was suspected. While
making slow progress in the re-
pairing, the misrepresentation
also constructed cellars, where
they held their prisoners until the
required ransom was paid.
