DANGER AT AMOY
JAPANESE ATTACKED SAILORS CLASH WITH PICKETS. (A. & N.Z.) SHANGHAI, March 27. 1 The anti-Japanese boycott feeling has been intensified at Amoy, necessitating additional naval protection. Strike pickets, preventing shipping activities and attempting to seize all cargo landed, resulted in serious conflict with Japanese naval men. The Japanese had previously notified the Chinese authorities that pickets would be treated as pirates in the event of their seizing cargoes. A Japanese vessel’s cargo lighter seized by pickets was chased by a launch containing Japanese naval men. The lighter was captured and the pickets detained.
