Rec. Dec. 10, 8.30 p.m. SHANGHAI, Wednes. Local students continue to hold Chang-chun, Shanghai's Chinese Mayor, as prisoner, following the allnight detention of students for outbreaks of violence, during which the administration headquarters were wrecked. Property worth 20,000 dollars, including the furniture at the Keomintang's headquarters and elsewhere, was destroyed. Many valuable official documents were also destroyed. Suburban students 20 miles from the township of Chenju are reported to have destroyed railway bridges and attacked the station as a demonstration of protest against the refusal of the railway to provide transport to Nanking for a monster demonstration planned in the capital to-day.
