The number of Japanese war vessels along the coast of Fukien and Kwangtung has been increased considerably, according to a report in the "Shun Pao" yesterday.
Seven warships are now anchored off Amoy. One of them is a cruiser of the large type while the remaining six are destroyers. More than ten enemy war vessels have been sighted off Hainan Island, China's largest insular possession, two between Hongkong and Macao, two outside the Bocca Tigris harbour and four off Swatow.
