A CHINESE PLOT
TO MURDER A CHINESE MISSIONARY. HE 01MECTS TO CONFORM TO CONFUCIAN PRACTICES. By Cable—Press Association—Copyright Received May 11, 0.15 p.m. Sydney, May 11. It was stated at the Presbyterian Assembly that the recent introduction of a Chinese teacher into Sydney had produced trouble among the Chinese. It appeared that the teacher compelled the children to bow down each morning to an image of Confucius. The parents objected, and one of the strongest objectors was the Rev. Young Wai, a Chinese Minister. As a result the Confucians had met together in what was called a court and tried Young Wai, and plotted in detail his assassination.
Steps are being taken to protect Young Wai.
