A tale of travel, in northern Manchuria which will command attention is related by Mr. Paul M. Anderson, who returned last week from a trip through north China and Siberia where he went as a representative of the American Milk Products Ca. to—establish agencies and study the territory. During a three mo: tour he visited the larger of the north, and in the course of his travels the train he was on was once held up by Hunghutzes out of the many times such attacks were threatened and on that occasion a woman tried to get his revolver in order to shoot herself. One of the less exciting incidents of his trip was a game of tennis with the son of Chang Tso-lin.
The Hanghutsy attack occurred on tne side of a hill about 12 miles out of Harbin on the way to Vladivostok. From his account, it seems that the fighting mainly consisted of a Chinese bugler rushing up and down the platform blowing discordant blasts on his horn, of frightened Chinese guard being prodded on by an officer to answer the fire of the Hunghutzes, and the final capture of the attackers who turned out in the end to be three in number. They were concealed amongst a cluster of huts farther down the hillside and were routed out together with a great number of innocent bystanders—men, women.and children. During—the fighting which Jasted an hour and a half, Mr. Anderson says that at least 1,500 rounds of "ammunition must have been fired—no one was hit and not even the train was struck by a bullet.
