SITUATION IN CHINA
REBELLIOUS STUDENTS POSITION AT HANKOW SERIOUS. Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright. PEKING, November 19. (Received November 20, at 9.55 a.m.) The Wuchang Teachers’ College has been closed as the result of the disgraceful insubordination and threatening attitude of the Chinese students, instigated by neighboring students from Liuyang, who were responsible for the recent evacuation of the missionaries. The vice-principal was flogged, incarcerated, and forced to promise not to return to the college, of which the students took possession. They insulted and threatened the foreign teachers, and demanded control and the right to decide questions of discipline. At Hankow the situation is daily becoming more serious. The foreign concessions are repeatedly entered by carloads of armed Reds on various pretexts. Contrary to the regulations, foreign property has been searched and motors commandeered. British marines ashore were stoned by mobs.
