Four of the trains were loaded with troops, motor trucks. Other troops—700 strong and ar ‘med | with machine guns—were reported | moved up toward the Peiping zone in trucks because of the hitch in rail- way operations.

Kanichiro | Tashiro of the command of the re-| inforced Japanese Army, was not an- | nounced. Units of the powerful Jap- | anese Army in Manchukuo—the Kwantuug Army—were known to have crossed the frontier into China at| Shanhaikwan. Vice Admiral Kivoshi Hasegawa, commanding the third fleet in China waters, was ordered to take proper es for protection of Japanese ! interests in South as well as North| China. Japanese consuls were in- | structed to make preparations for the evaculation of Japanese nationals should it become necessary. Extras Sell Out. A pronounced war atmosphere | spread throughout the country, al- | though the premier stated after the | cabinet meeting Japan will continue | | to press for peace. Newspaper extras | detailing the latest advices from the battle zone flooded the streets only to disappear as fast as they could be | bought. While the Tokio stock market was ! quiet, losing only from 3 to 5 points, the Yokohama silk market dropped 15 points in anticipation of war.

Maj. H. O. Curley, ofticer named by Police Chief Stan- ley Switter to aid him during the | steel strike, claimed the steel workers started the violence by stoning him and firing upon police. Harold J. Ruttenberg, Steel Workers Organizing Committee research direc- tor, charged the officers fired re- volvers, shotguns and tear-gas shells into strikers and sympathizers “with- | out provocation.” Three patrolmen who participated in the affray confirmed Curley’s as- sertion.
