its own financial arrangements. We
are in thorough accord with the new

DRAMATIC CHAPTER

MASSES, lNFLAMED BY KILLING
OF OFFICIAL, 6EslEGE FOR 4
EiGN OFFICE. 2
WANT ACTION AGAINST CHINA
California Question Fresh in Mind
Leaders Only Able to Pacify
Demonstrators When Hear
ing Is Promised.

Toxic, Sept. S.-The assassination
litical bureau of the Japanese foreign
Office, has inflamed the masses and
a dramatic chapter in the history of
the new Japan has just been written.
Fifteen thousand persons gathered
in mass meeting in Hibiya Park, call
ing for military action against China.
a majority Of these marched to the
foreign office and clamored for admis-
sion.
They demanded the dispatch Of
troops to China to take such meas
ures as were necessary to obtain sat
~isfaction for the killing of Japanese
at Marking, or, failing this, the resig-
nation of the minister of foreign af-
fairs Baron Notkuaki Maxine.
Crowd Denounces Diplomacy.
The speakers denounced the empti.
ness of Japanese diplomacy in con-
nection with California and China and
insisted that the insult to the Japa-
nese flag at Marking should be wiped
out. The manifestation was clearly
an explosion of popular resentment
against the ministry in it's treatment
OF the California and Chinese ques-
tons.
Profting by the lesson of the riots
which followed the conclusion of
peace between Russia and Japan, the
government reduced the risk of vio-
lence yesterday by refusing to allow
a single soldier or policeman at the
scene. The manifestants, nan of
whom were students, were orderly
during the early part of the proceed
ings. A score of ~agitators, including
a girl, decried Japanese diplomacy and
declared that it had never been known
to be successful and had always end
ed in failure. The incidents in China
were u~nbearable.
Stampede for Foreign Office.
Suddenly the cry to march on the
foreign Office was raised and there
was a general stampede, many per-
sons barely escaping being crushed.
The crowds surged through the
streets headed by the ~gesticulatins
leaders and reached the foreign of.
flee to find that the high iron gate
were locked.
Scores of the demonstrators pound
ed on the gates and called for them
to be opened. The under officials re-
fused. A delegation was appointed.
the members of which climbed the
gates, and then ensued a long parley.
The extraordinary situation contin-
ued for five hours, the delegates
emerging periodically to pacify the
crowd. Finally, when the discussion
ended, they reported that the minis
ter had promised to receive them
Sept. Is.
This was greeted with bowls of de-
rision, and a thousand marched to
the foreign minister's residence, three
miles distant. Police, however, pre-
vented their near approach.
