a sanguinary conflict. She made great
sacrifices, but has given unmistakable
proof of her pacific intentions. on his

unemployed men and half grown boys
marched through the streets, intend

the bridges over the Spree strongly
occupied by police, who soon sum-
moned a mounted division to assist in
dispensing the crowd.
The crowd then assembled at a
point nearer the Reichstag building on
the opposite bank of the river. where
they kept up prolonged hooting. The
police attempted to disperse the dem
onstrators by pushing them along and
driving them into the side streets.
When a part of the mob reached the
new opera house, now under course
OF construction, they found piles Of
bricks and they began to hurl bricks
at the police, who thereupon drew
their sabers striking here and there
among the rioters with the fiat of the
blades. A boy fired a pistol the bull
let striking policeman but not seri-
ously injuring him. Workmen in the
upper stories of the theatre threw
bricks at the police who in turn charg-
they could reach.
After the fight a large number of
the rioters were unable to move, hay-
ing been too severely wounded by the
officers. Sixteen of them were car

way there with some assistance to

men and boys are in a serious condi-

Those who were least seriously wound

ters.
Ten policemen went to headquarters
for treatment having been bruised
and cut by bricks and stones. One
had a wrist broken. The police made
only a few arrests. as they were un-
able to spare the men to take pris-
Oners to the station house.
Later in the afternoon another dem
onstation occurred in Koenniggraetzer
about a mile distant from the Reich
stag building where about 500 persons

CANADA BLAMED FOR
THE ORIENTAL INFLUX

Ottawa, Canada, Jan. 21.-The re-
| port of w. L. Mckenzie King, the
royal commissioner appointed to in
quire into the influx OF oriental labor
! into Canada, was presented to parlia-
ment this evening, After a search
| ing inquiry into the vexed problems
of Japanese immigration the COM
missioner throws a new light on the
responsibility for the sudden landing
Of Japanese in British Columbia dur
ing last summer
The report of Mr.. King establishes
that the japanese government had
been observing the agreement to re-
strict immigration and that the de-
parture OF the japanese foreign office
in April last from the regulations
hitherto in force was made only at the
request of the Canadian-Nippon
Steamship company, backed by the
Canadian Pacific railroad and other
influential Canadian interests which
represented at Toxic that Japanese
labor was needed and desired in this
country.
"If there was change" says Mr.,
King, lin the policy of Japan, it was
not one which could adversely affect
the interests Of this country without
a Canadian citizen first placing upon
it the seal OF his approval
In other words, Mr.. King finds that
no malice prepense upon the japanese
government or any desire to alter its
policy Of restricting immigration as
civ
can be charged, and the cause of the
influx that has agtated British Col
umbia is traceabe to Canadian
sources.
In his analysis of the eatcnt OF jap
aneso immigration OF the first ten
months OF last year Mr King finds
that out OF a total Of 2,125 only 4,42S
remained in Canada. or this total,
.2,779 came from the Hawaiian Islands
and only 1,641 from Japan direct. or
this latter number 900 were under
contract for the Canadian Pacific
railway and 500 were students and
merchants Summarizing the figures
OF the arrivals from japan from 1901
up to January /, 1907, Mr. King finds
that they represent from 5000 to
$500. or these a large proportion
found their way to the United States
The numbet Of Japanese in British
Columbia on January l, 1907 was
less than $500.
Besides the contract with the Cana
dian Pacific company the Nippon
Steamship company obtained assur-
ances OF a contract with James Duns-
muir, president of British Columbia.
for the supply Of miners from Japan.
Application was made TO the Grand
Trunk Pacific for a contract, but the
answer was non-committal.
