MING SANG NOT LOST IN HONG KONG BLOW Steamer Reported Sunk in Typhoon, at Manila—Mistaken for ‘Loon Sang. By The Assoclated Press. Manila, Aug. 20. — The British steamer Ming Sang, which was re- ported sunk in the Hong Kong har- bor during the typhoon Saturday, ar- rived here safely this morning after a tumultuous voyage. Her officers reported that the vessel seen to sink in Hong Kong probably was the British steamship Loon Sang. The Loon Sang is a ship of much the same type as the Ming Sang and might have been mistaken for her. Many Wves were lost with the steamer whose identity was in error. Of those aboard, only two, European officers, were saved. A minor typhoon has been raging here for the last three days. With it came a heavy rainfall that flooded many streets: There has been no damage, though shipping is sus- pended. DEMAND DAILY PAY. Actors and Singers Want Immediate Salaries in Some Countries, London, Aug. 20.—S8ingers and act- ors in the countries affected by the slump in exchanges have adopted a new methed of collecting their sal- | arfes.

The artists have refused to sign contraots except on this basis, as they claim that the fluctuation of the ex- ehange makes their salary practically nothing at the end of the month.
