JAPANESE REVERSES
CLAIMS BY CHINESE CUTTING OFF RAILWAYS (Reed. Oct. 14, 2.30 p.m.) LONDON, Oct. 13. The Hong Kong correspondent of the Associated Press of Great Britain, states that Chinese dispatches claimed that advance forces cut the Japanese railways north of Yochow, threatening the loss of this strategic middle Yangtse port, which would erase the most important of the Japanese gains since the capture of Hankow. The Chinese asserted that the Japanese are being pushed back northward in the Hunan, Kiangsi and southern Hupeh provinces.
