of the Zeppelin airship over Antwerp last night and early today was issued tonight:
 IA Zeppelin airship was reported at half past 10 o'clock last night near the forts to the south of the city, and also near the River Hethe. It passed over Alost toward Termonde and Ghent and then returned toward Antwerp and tried to fly over the city, but for a time a heavy artillery fire kept it out side the outer Notifications.
 At 8 o'clock this morning five or six bombs were dropped from it. Later seven bombs were dropped in the Pare Du Rosignol, close to some houses which have been converted into hos pitaLs and which were flying the Red Cross flag. These housese were dam aged and 10 or 12 persons slightly wounded. After the bomb dropping ex-
 ploits, the Zeppelin rose and disap-
 peared i'll the direction of Malines. An examination of the bombs thrown showed they had thin double covering, the two covers being joined together with mushroom-shaper rivets which act the part of bullets and are
 liable to cause terrible injury when the | covers are burst by the explosion They are similar to those used by the Bonnet motor car bandits in France This morning the Belgian authori- ties conducted the United States con- | sul to the Red Cross buildings which were struck by bombs, so that he might see the extent of the damage | done. King Albert also visited the courthouse. The state troops will sleep | Tn the courthouse for the present.

 The new convention has been under negotiations for the last four years Early last year the negotiations were broken off by Panama because it then seemed impossible to bring the two governments into accord.

It also amplifies the Panama canal treaty of Nov. IS, 1903 under which the canal zone was ac. quired from Panama.
 Panama, by the provisions of the convention, will for the first time be placed in direct physical connection with the remainder of the country.

Against Japan's Infringement of Neu-
 trality in Landing Troops at Chinese
 Port,

Picking, Sept. 2-The German lega- ton has protested to the foreign ohlce against an infringement of Chinas s enutrality byTJapan. The protest roi- lowed the landing of a Japanese dl- vision at the newly opened Chinese port of Lung -Kow, 100 miles north or Tsing-Tau.
 News of the Japanese landing caused no surprise here. as the Japanese lega4 ton several days ago requested the foreign office to remove the limit or 50 kilometres (aloout 30 niles) radius prescribed by the Chinese as the fight ing area around TsingTau.
 The foreign office did not comply with the request, but it was under stood that the Chinese troops would be instructed not to oppose the Japan csc. The Chinese officials are describ- ed as incensed, but afraid of doing any thing that might afford the Japan ese cause for territorial or other ex- actions.
 Whether British forces will cross Shan-Tung peninsula with the Japan ese is not divulged, but the point is much discussed here.
