BRITISH FLAYED|N
CHINESE VIEWS OF
WASNS|EN ATTACK
Two Reports Equally De-
mandatory of Bombard-
ment.
BY WILLIAM PHILIP SIMNIS
Zines Staff Correspondent

WASHINGTON. Jan 7.-IIere
for the first time to my knowledge,
is the Chinese version of the Brit
ish bombardment of the Yangtze
river port of Wanhsien, about 400
miles upstream from IIankow.
1t is important, first, because it
sheds considerable light on China S
insistent demand for equality of
treatment" at the hands of foreign
powers, and, second. because it
shows, rather wildly, something
of what is behind the drive of the
Cantonese, or southern forces north
ward toward Picking.
According to British version, the
bombardment of Wanhsien was due
to the seizure by the Chinese Gen
eral Yang Sen Of two British river
merchantmen and the death of
seven British officers and seamen
in an effort to retake them. This
was cabled to this country in de-
tail.
Here is the Chinese side, by slow
mail from Wanhsien:
"To the Friendly People Of All
Countries:
"Out OF the many murderous acts
committed by British vessels on
China's inland waters, the most out
rageous is doubtless what has be-
fallen the people Of Wanhsien.

steamship Wanliu, Of the Butter
