Thirty eight year-old Yeng Ming, a Chinese crewman for the 4,450-ton British steamer Caduceus, was executed and 10 others were sentenced to 10 years' imprisonment each on charges of affiliation with the Reds. The remaining 52 Chinese crewmen, who had been under arrest for over five months, were retained in custody. The Caduceus was about to sail for Hong Kong after her first trip to Formosa when Nationalist authorities arrested her on charges that she had passed or was about to pass to Communist ownership.
