Chinese Pirates Beachied and Loeted
Launeh Comet.
HONGKONG, March 2v.- Detalls of
the capture aud looting by Chinese pl
rates on March 22 near Canton of a
Jaunch owned by the Standard Ol com-
pany have been obtained. The launch,
or tug, Comet was procveding to Kong
mun, between Wampon and Canton,
towlag a lighter laden with kerosene
oll. While passing what is known as
or second line of
former obstructions to navigation, at
630 Thursday evening and when in
sight of Wampoa fort, on the (sland
of Wampoa (one of the many [slands
Iying between Canton and the sea) a
number of junks manned by pirates
closed around the Comet and Ler tow,
A stinkpot was thrown into her en-
gine room, the pirates boarded the
launch, and ber crew was overpowered
The pirates then beached the Comet
and the lighter and removed all the
valuables from the two vessels, Includ-
ing a number of Winchester rifles and
a thousand rounds of amumunition. The
cargo of kerosene was not touched
The pirates, it appears, missed cap-
turing much more valuable booty. It
was the intention of the Stapdard Oll
company’s officials to ship $20,000 lu
specie on the Cowet on her last trip,
but the shipment of specie was trans:
ferred to a freight steamer.
