CHINA S REPLY TO.
JAPAN'S PROTEST
Opinion Expressed by Chinese That
They Should Have Some Rights
in Their Own Country.
In tbs Meantime the Boycott Weapon
is Being Used, and Japan Asks
That Promoters OF the Move
ment be Restrained from Fur
ther Efforts.

Pekin-The Chinese government
on Friday handed in a formal reply to
Japan's protest against the construc-
ton of the Tsinmintun Fakumen
railroad. China asks Japan to deter
mine and fix the distance, according
to usage elsewhere, at which she will
permit the existing line to be paral-
leled, and she places a limit upon
Japan's right to oppose the construc-
ton of railroads in Manchuria on the
ground that they parallel and compete
with the Japanese controlled lines.
Baron Hayashi, the Japanese min.
lister, has handed in to the foreign
board the names of four Chinese mer-
chants who are officially promoting
the boycott movements against Jap
anese goods, and he asks that they
be suppressed.
Acting upon advices received from
London. the British minister has in
structed the British consul general at
Canton to advise the Canton viceroy
to suppress the boycott.
The foreign board has asked the as
sistance of the French minister to
China in the suppression of several
thousand rebels, who according TO a
| telegram from the governor OF Iunan
province, have captured the Laohu
pass, on the Tonking border, and who
possess French arms, and who have
been trained by Frenchmen.

EVIDENCE OF WHOLESALE MUIR.
DER.
Bodies Of Many Victims Unearthed on
Farm Of Indiana Woman.

Laporte, Ind-There still seems to
be some doubt as to the body OF the
woman found in the ruins OF the
home OF Mrs. Belle Guinness being
that of the woman who is charged
with having committed wholesale
murders that would make the crimes
OF the most noted criminals of the
past pale into insigniiicance. II is
believed by some that the body Is
that of another of Mrs. Guinness vic
tins, and that the woman is in hid
ing. For the first time since Sheriff
Shutter began work on the farm he
failed on Saturday to discover at least
one additional body. Excavations
were made at several points in the
barnyard, but in none OF them was
there indications of human bones or
flesh.
It is believed that at least a score
of people have been buried on Mrs.
Guinness farm, and that all were
murdered by this woman, who seems
TO have been the most ferocious GRIM
inal of modern times.
