JAPANEsE-AMERICAN FIGHT.
Reported Riot in Kobe Between
BIuejackcts and Coolies.

SAN FRANCISCO, August Sine
steamer Belgic, from Hongkong via Hon
olulu. brings advices from Kobe to the
effect that a serious riot occurred there
on July 18th between sailors from the
ships Yorktown and Boston and mob
OF japanese coolies, on the occasion OF
ball game between team from the two
warships and the European nine OF Kobe
The row commenced when coolle,
having stolen a flask OF whiskey from
blueiacket, was caught and chastlsed Dy
the latter. The local police attempted 10
arrest the sailor. but his shipmates re-
fused to give him up, and marched IN
body TO restaurant where they made a
stand and delied the natives.
An immense crowd assembled. and the
attitude Of the coolies was decidedly ugly,
but the police made no effort TO disperse
the mob. and the bluejackets determined
10 fight their way through the mob TO the
water front. Stones and other missiles
were exchanged, and when reinforce
ment came ashore. some hours later, the
police dispersed the coolies. and the
sailors boarded their respective ships
without further mOlestation. 1t Is be-
lieved, however, that more will be heard
of the incident in the near future.
OFFICIALLY UNHEARD OF.
WASHINGTON, August S.-The latest
advices Of the Navy Department from the
Asiatic station make no mention Of any
trouble such as that reported from San
Francisco between the sailors of the
Yorktown and Boston and the japanese
at Kobe, and for that reason the officials
at the department attach no importance
10 the report.
A recently published story OF the Ill
treatment of United States sailors b.
Honolulu turns out to have exactly the
same amount of fact for a foundation.
Some deserters were captured by the
local police and as they resisted, it was
necessary 10 tie them up and deliver them
i'm that shape aboardship. Naval officers
say that there is hardly any record OF
IN treatment Of American sailors in Japa-
npSp norris
