JAPANESE IN AMERICA
03TRA6RS m OALIFORMiA. TWO MBIT MURDERED. Press Association —By Telegraph—Copyright NEW YORK. Juno 22. (Received Juno 25, at 10 a.m.) There have been several violent crimes against Japanese in California during the past few days, which .some newspapers are inclined to accept as evidence of an antiJapanese outbreak. The bodies of two well dressed Japanese were found on a lonely seashore road near San Pedro. They had been shot from an ambush, and their bodies were horribly mutilated. The victims have not been identified, and there is no clue to the perpetrators of the deed.
A second incident occurred at Los An'.rcles, ’whore a Japanese salesman was dragged from a motor car by a, party of men and women arid threatened with tar and feathers unless he immediately left the district.
Other demonstrations against Japanese are reported.—Sydney ‘Sun’ Cable.
