the result that murders and hold-ups
follow each other with appalling fire.

The climax was reached when the jury

GOODNOW EXPLAINS
STAND ON BOYCOTT
Denies Stories Which Have
Been Published.
WAS TWICE INDICATED
Former Consul General to Shanghai,
China, Attributes False State
ments to J. II. Brown.
WAS TWICE INDICATED

Reports that frequently have reached
Washington TO the effect that the
Chinese boycott on American goods was
instigated and promoted by John Good
now, OF Minneapolis. formerly consul
general 10 Shanghai, have attracted
the attention of Mr.. Goodnow, who since
his retirement from the Office last spring
has been engaged in private enterprises
in Shanghai. In a statement which he
has sent TO The Times. he denies all re-
sponsibnity for any connection with
the boycott.
Mr.. Goodnow attributes the spread of
these reports to a man known as J. II.
Brown. and cites an interview that
Brown gave to an Oregon paper some
months ago. The former consul refers
TO Browns record at the State Depart
ment. and some time ago 1t became
known in Washington that the depart
ment had received very damaging re
ports concerning Brown, and officials
there seem inclined TO place no credence
IN any charges that he might bring
bring against anyone.
Although the Chinese boycott has as
sumed decidedly serious aspect, and
officials OF the State Department mem
berS of the consular service in China
and members OF Congress are earnest
ly endeavoring to successf uily cope with
it. the State Department has not been
convinced that Goodnow was in any way
connected with the method Of retalia-
toin adopted by the Chinese.
His Yindication.
II is a matter Of record that within the
past two years numerous complaints.
some of a decidedly serious nature
have reached both the department and
White House, concerning Goodnow's
methods of conducting his office, which
is perhaps the best paying consular post
in all Asia. Twice Goodnow was called
TO Washington to face these charges
but in each instance he returned To HE

Yindieation. Finally. however. he re-
