RUGBY, 9th December.
A somewhat critical situation exists at several Yangtse ports arising out of the advance of the Kuominchun |troops and defections among the National troops at Chang-chow which led, to the interruption of railway communications between Nanking and Shanghai. Conditions appear, uncertain, and as a precautionary measure the British cruiser Suffolk left Shanghai for Nanking yesterday morning in order to be available, if required, for the safety of foreign residents. The cruiser Berwick has left Hongkong to replace the Suffolk at Shanghai.
