CHINA DECLINES TO RECEDE FROM STAND TAKEN Notwithstanding the Japanese Minis- ter Threatened ta Stop Negotiations. Peking, April 13.—Conferences be- tween the representatives of China and Japan were resumed today, but there ‘was no break in the deadlock which has arisen. The Chinese government declines to recide from the position it has assumed, notwithstanding the fact that the Japanese minister, Eki Hioki, threatened today to discontinue the negotiations. The Chinese foreign minister. Lu- cheng-Hsiang, refused to discuss Group V of the Japanese demands. ‘This group relates to a number of the most impertant demands made by Japan, including the employment of Japanese political, financial and mil- itary advisers and Japanese police; Japanese supervision of the manufac- ture or purchase of China's war mu- nitions and rights for railway and mining operations. M. Hioki endeavored to draw the Chinese representatives into a discus- sion of Article V of this group, which has to do with the concession to Japan or rights for the cdnstruction of rail- roads. He intimated that China had favored Great Britain with rallway concessions and had not given similar rights to Japan He again urged China to grant the concessions demanded and permit Japan to take up subsequently with Great Britain any question which might arise in respect to encroach- ment on British railway interests. The Japanese minister again post- poned consideration of the Manchurian group. The Chinese foreign minister asked once more that discussion con- cerning this group be concluded, but M. Hioki replied that he was still without instructions on this point trom Tokio. APPEALED FOR PROTECTION FROM BLACK HAND Wealthy Ifalian Merchant of Hern- shaw, W. Va., the Victim. — - Charleston, W.
