VICTORIA, 3. c.. April :9.-News is
brought by the Shinano Maru that Japan
is preparing TO enforce her hold on Man
churia. An agitation is under way for a
stronger policy toward China" The
Japanese Herald of Yokohama says the
impression is gaining ground that Japan,
taking advantage of the heavy differ

ing China's executive, Is trying delicatey
but none the less reientlessly. to force
that country into diplomatic quandary.

May Delay Construction.

In tho meantime China is sreportcd TO
have demanded the withdrawal of Japan
sarrisons and policemen along the An
lung Mukden railway. Consul General
Coke OF Mukden refuses TO entertain that
demand in view Of article q of the Pc
king convention, on the ground that the
-Antung- -Mukden railroad is branch OF
the South Manchurian railway. China
does not acquiesce i'm the consul generals
contention. This new difficulty may de-
lay the construction OF the Antung Muk
arn lire. Commenting on the situation, a
Japanese newspaper says:
Here's a japanese View.
Japan may retain the footholds which
she iegitimately acquired in Manchuria.
Japan will not necessarily feel aggrieved
if the Manchurian questions remain un-
settled but il will be extremely mad
visable for China. IL China fails to re-
sume the negotiations Japan will proceed
with her enterprises In Manchuria ac-
cordng TO her own content.

BLIND TIGERS ARE
 BECOMING DEFIANT
GERARD WHISKY INTERESTS WILL IGNORE AGITATION, TT IS RE- PORTED, BUT WILL OPERATE UNDER BARE POLES.

Columbus, Ga., April 20.-It is reported that a conference of the blind tiger in- terests of Girard, Ala, was held last night at which 1t was decided to ignore the present agitation and hold their ground. AS a matter for precauton, ac cording to information furnished Editor Berry, the tiger people decided that while they would continue to operate they would run under bare poles, as it were, and IS wagon loads of liquor were secretly hauled to the Georgia side late at night so that in case of a raid and coniscation the loss would not be so great.
 The day was without disorder or ex- citement in Girard and Phoenix City. It is rumored that the fight for the control of the Girard Journal will come to a head tomorrow when, according to the editor, an effort will be made to oust him by majority of the shares of stock. Editor Berry is at present in complete charge of the paper and says he intends to continue to hold the fort.

GREAT BIG STIR IN
 FLORENCE COUNCIL
THREE ALDERMEN TENDER RES- IGNATIONS AND LEAVE MEET ING WHEN STREET ovERsEER IS RETAINED.

Florence, April 20.-(Special )-The har- mony which usually oharacterizes the meeting of the Florence city council was suddenly and violently broken last night when three councilmen rendered their resignations and walked out of the meet ing. The three were w. l.. Reeder, ". F. Mcfarland and James Kilburn.
 MT Reeder and MT. Mcfarland, two members of the street committe, pre- ferred charges of incompetency against J. J. Harris, the street overseer, and at the last meeting Harris was suspended until the charges could be investigated. Last night the vote resulted in nine to sustain the charges and four to retain Harris. The law requires a two-thirds vote to remove an employe of the city and Harris, therefore, held his job by the narrow margin of third of vote.
 When the result was announced Mir. Me- Farland arose and rendered his resigna- tion saying he declined to sit on board which was spending the peoples money as 1t was spent MT. Reeder in tender ing his resignation said he refused to remain with any body of men that would sustain man they knew to be incompe- tent.
 Mir Kilburn's resignation had been pre- sented at the previous meeting owing to the fact that he had been appointed a magistrate and the law forbids a man to hold more than one office. However. his resignation had not been accepted. The withdrawal of the three created a mild sensation and their resignations were tabled until the next meeting.
 Councilman s. D. Rice introduced res- olution which was referred to the ordi nance committee, providing for the pay ment of $50 to any person giving in- formation leading to the conviction of d violator of the prohibition laws and the payment of $25 out of the city treasury for the conviction of violators of the gam ing laws.
 Embry Jones, colored, put in a claim for $2OOO for injury to his ankle from falling in an open ditch in December.
 The civic improvement and street com mittees and the Commercial club will CO., operate in making the first week in May cleaning up week for the city.
