By Telegraph—Press Association—Copyright (Received October IS, 5.5 p.m.) SHANGHAI, Oct. 17. Owing to the continuance of interracial clashes every night in tho international settlement at Shanghai, the Municipal Council has ordered the Russian detachment of tho Shanghai Volunteer Corps, a permanent detachment composed of White Russians, to go into the Japanese quarter to reinforce the police. Japanese marines are rushing in all directions throughout tho night, suppressing riots and rescuing victims. The Nanking Government is deeply concerned over the increasing number of Japanese warships which are plying on tlie Yangtse River. Sixteeif destroyers and gunboats of tho total of 29 in Chinese wafers aro stationed at different points in China's principal waterway. A message from Hongkong says the widespread nature of tho boycott is shown by the fact that the Chinese Chamber of Commerce at Canton has ordered all firms to submit to the Anti-Japanese Association lists of Japanese goods in stock every five days. Anyone who attempts to import further supplies when the existing stocks have been sold out will bo "appropriately punished" by tho association.
