STAR, WASHINGTON LOOT IS SURRENDERED BY CANTON STRIKERS Controversy That Has Held Up Forty Ships at Port Settled Peacefully. THE EVENING INSULTED BULL By the Associated Press CANTON, China, February 26.—The controversy between the forelgn com- missioner of customs and the Canton government, which came to a head with the former's closing of the ports of Canton and Whampoa, was settled ¢ by the surrender of goods selzed by the Canton strikers and by the in- sue of a proclamation by the Canton authorities that all formalities in land- ing goods and paying customs must be_complied with. The commissioner closed the two ports to compel action by the Chinese authorities to prevent alleged illegal seizure of cargoes between the ships and the customhouses by pickets for the native committee, which has di- rected the anti-forefgn strike of the t few months. The action of the pickets was serlously hampering all trade, causing chaotic conditions in the Pear] River ports.

About month he explained. little tussle, which was not sanguinary, however. Do spite his injuries, Kelley siill has the greatest respect for the bull, ad ing he would not accept £1.000 for him today. He said he will be a little more careful in the future.
