ceing detailed at the cemetery,
Viewing the preparation of the re
mains In accordance with Chinese
custom as a duty involving reverence
and respect, the local Chinese had
arranged to have ropes stretched
across the road near the scene OF the
work and TO have a watchman sta
toned with the party to warn away
the spectators. This. evidently, was
not sufficient. and Mr.. 500 visited
police headquarters late yesterday

as bordering on the religious by the

WAS an appeal to the police.
