SHANGHAI TENSION.
Naval Vessels' Arrival Fails to
Allaj Anxiety.
CHINESE BOMB THROWING,
(United P.A.—Electric Telegraph—Copyright)
(Received 11.30 a.m.) SHANGHAI, August 31
An intensification of the antiJapanese boycott activities, including a campaign of bomb throwing, is creating apprehension. Two Japanese cruisers and four destroyers, which arrived this morning, failed to allay anxiety. The commander of the Japanese naval landing party submitted a strong protest to the Mayor of Greater Shanghai, General Wu, Te-chen, against the propaganda carried on by the Chinese Press, demanding action to discontinue it. He added that unless a favourable reply was received a formal demand for the closure of the offending mewspaper offices would be submitted.
Meantime China is pinning her faith to the report of the Lyttou Commission, which held its last meeting at Peiping prior to proceeding to Geneva. The general indications from Japan are that the Lvtton Commiss : on can only report a fait accompli in Manchuria.
