To the Editor of the "Mobrh-Chikn Day News" ib,—Me are now informed that all American mails, with one exception, have now been delivered in Shanghai, but it would appear that American mails are not put off in Japan for sending on to Shanghai, presumably being taken on to Hong Kong first. This is taken to be so, as yesterday I received an American letter dated September 8, sent via an address in Yokohama, and referring to a letter of September 2, which was addressed to Shanghai but which has not yet been received. It would be instructive to know whether American mail is transhipped from Hong Kong, and if so, why not from Japan.
Curious.
Shanghai, Oct. 8.
