An official of the legation said:
If the report is not untrue, the
American commander must have had
good reason for his action. such as the
protection Of American interests which
would have been endangered BY flying
shells.
Japan has been very reluctant 10
send ships into the harbor, for she
recognized the international character
Cf Shanghai and that the laws OF neu
trality demanded that China should or
der the Askoid and the Grozovoi TO dis
mantle or leave the port, and that. she
having given the order and the Rus

Incumbent for japan to act, thereby
Protecting Chinese neutrality and al

The failure of the trawlers to obey
the signals from the Russian warships,
or the nervousness Of some officer who

for the blunder. As soon as the facts
are established II is certain the Rus

nothing resulted. yet throughout the

is almost anglophila in sentiment
After escaping from the hostile crowd
that met him at the station, he drove
