CURED and number of merchants are
said to have shown desire to discon-

Japanese, and have been branded as
traitors, and in several instances
marked by having their ears slit.
1t is alleged that league has been
formed secretly and has pledged itself
to give any man who Sits the ears of a

be thrown into Jail, to see that he is

pay him dollar day while in prison.
Should one of the traitor merchants be
