Japan Appeals to Chinese.

Toxic, May 6.-Full realization of
the serious possibilities of the Chi
nese boycott seems finally to have
impressed itself upon the Toxic gov
ernment. 1t reveals its concern by
sending secret instructions to the
Governors Of Kanagaak, Hyogo and
Nagasaki provinces, urging them to
utilize the influence of the Chinese
merchants of Yokohama, Kobe and
Nagasaki in an effort to bring Ixes-
sure upon their fellow countrymen in
The agitated districts. The Toxic
authorities, acknowledging that their
afncial protests have only served to
add fuel to the fire of the Chinese re-
sentiment at what they term their
national disgrace, now hope to infiu-
snce the boycotters by an appeal to
Chinese exporters resident In Japan,
where business is greatly suffering.

II believe that the flag bearing the

the country must be directed to the
commercial union of the two coun-
