Police are seeking the two Chinese who bilked the wife of a cafe proprietor in Hongkew, Mrs. Tsuei Ching-lien. The two men offered to accept a low rate for the money because they did not want to take time to go to à bank before their departure from Shanghai the following day.
Mrs, Tsuei exchanged the money. When her husband came home he suspected that the crisp new $10 bills left by the men were not genuine. He reported the matter to Japanese ce police, who ascertained that the money was exactly like the bills of the Central Bank of China except for the quality of paper. Police experts said a layman could not detect this, These bills were the same kind as those carried by Wang, arrested earlier that morning, indicating that the two men who visited the cafe probably were members of the same gang, according to police.
