MASTERTON, July 25.[]

A Chinaman named Joe Chong Lee, of Martinborough, is bankrupt. The unsecured creditors represent liabilities of over £1000. The estimated deficiency is over £300. He attributes his bankruptcy mainly to an unprofitable, partnership with a Maori (sic). They began business two years ago with a capital of £28.[1]
