HOSTILITIES RENEWED
WITHIN THE GREAT WALL LONG ARTILLERY DUEL (United Press Association.) (By Electric Telegraph—Copyright.) SHANGHAI, May 8. (Received May 8, at 10.15 p.m.) Owing to the Chinese ignoring the Japanese ultimatum to vacate the districts east of the Luan River by Saturday night, hostilities have again broken out in the vicinity of Chinwangtao and Pcitaiho. A Japanese armoured train, after a long artillery duel, forced a Chinese train to retire, upon which the Japanese train reoccupied Peitaiho. There were also heavy artillery engagements at Funing and Chienan, towns within the Great Wall, west of Peitaiho, while Japanese planes have renewed their bombing activities.
