ACCUSED LOOTERS SLAIN.
Northern Troops Executed i'm WI.
chan Streets by Cantonese.

HANkOW, October 13 (P)-Execu-
tlon in the streets of Wuchang of
some northern soldiers charged with
looting marked the assumption Of con-
troy by the Cantonese red forces, who
had besieged the city more than 40
davs.
The defending northern troops are
either prisoners today or are fleeing
disorganized. many of them in dis
guise as civilians.
Gen. Liu Yu Chun, who directed
the defense of the city, and Chen
Khan Mu, former military governor
OF Hupeh Province, are prisoners.
The former probably will be tried
by court-martial. 1t is believed
neither will be executed. Liu Yu
Chun sought safety under the Amer
lean flag, hiding in the home of DR..
A. NJ. Sherman, principal of the Gen.
trail China University. A servant be-
trayed him.
Seeking hidden soldiers Of the capt.
ulated northern troops, the victorious
Cantonese searched all mission build
ings. and the foreign quarters. These
places, however, were not looted, and
no harm befell foreigners.
Ending Of the siege has permitted
food supplies to reach Wu Chang,
many tasting their first real food in

 Has Retired Again
 When Mrs. Carter told Chicago reporters that she was coming to California to die. it again marked her retirement from the stage. She was suffering with an infection in her hand. With the announcement of her retirement this time. how ever. she added that she was go- ing to die.
 The actress married Leslie Carter, of Chicag in 1880. nd it was not until after her divorce from him that she decided to go on the stage. Going 10 New York, she asked Bel asco for an opportunity to prove herself. Then began an association between the two that lasted through eighteen years of many successes.
 Under the Great Master she studied many roles. but the public never saw her interpretation of them. Belasco mapped out a course of study and work and 1t was sev- eral years before he permitted her to 20 before Broadway's stage lights.
