Graney of Cleveland
 Explains About Flat
 Bat He Used in Game

Cleveland. June s.-ru tell you about that tale of the flat bat" said Jack Graney, the Cleveland outfeld- CT, who was detected using a, stick that presented a plain surface to the ball in Chicago. Well, I have been hit ting pretty good this season." Graney said. ''The minute a fellow starts to thump the ball every one wants to know something about it. Why is he hitting so hard-2 Has he changed his style? Has he improved? Will he hit that way all season?
 I have been hitting harder than l ever did, but I have not changed my stty1e. The other clubs, particularly the catchers, have been aroused over this hitting. One day I came up to the bat and was astounded to have the catcher grab my bat and show it to the umpire. It did have flat sur face.
 ''The explanation is a simple one. The bat was a. favorite one of mine, but it had been broken. had the slab nailed back on it, and in my hur- ry to get up to bat picked it up without thinking about it's having been broken. I called for another bat, and slammed out a hit Just the same. I did not know that the report had come East that I had been caught using a flat bat"

 The statement says that Japan is taking every precaution 70 prevent the belief among the Chinese authori- t1es that Japan is opposed to PresI- dent Yuan Shi-kai and his govern ment, but admits that Japan has been opposition to the Picking government was started in the South. Moreover, the attitude of President Yuan and his government has, it is declared, been far from that calculated to en- courage, the friendly relations between China and Japan which were neces- sary to the permanent peace of the Far East. Japan had been suspect ed and mistrusted and it was felt by those interested in China's politics that had President Yuan been more Friendly, the council of the joint inter ests in China in cooperation with Ja- pan might have saved China from it's present chaos, says the statement; meanwhile, present conditions were not at all promising and delay in re- with serious danger not only to China itself but also to the interests of the powers. The statement concludes:
 'sAt present the wisest policy for Japan is thought to be found in sim ply watching developments. In what ever direction her efforts may be ex- erted it must be understood to be the outcome of the fullest interest with Great Britain and other friendly powers interested in China
 In an interview, Yukio Ozaki, the

'tIf the Chinese understo cd us perfectly" he is quoted as saying, land wish for further cordiality and if the head of the Chinese republic be man who faithfully represents the national hopes and inspirations, it is immateria1 to Japan whether he be Yuan shi-kai or anybody else.

Tokio, June 3-Owing to revolu- tionary outbreaks at the city or Tsinan-fu, China, and it's environs, the Japanese government ordered a contingent of railroad guards in Shan tung province to proceed to that city to restore order. It is explained here by officials that the move does not constitute intervention on the part Of Japan and that no troops were even sent from the Japanese garrison at Tsing-tau.
 The Japanese action of sending military railroad guards to Ts1nan-fu lis compared by officials to the landing of American marines at SWatow' China, some time ago to protect for eign interests. The Tsinan-fu rioting threatened to become very serious Mobs took possession of the city and hurled bombs at the shops, which were afterward p1undered. The house of Colonel Kishi of the Japanese army is said to have been damaged, and at a point one mile north of Tsinan-fu communication was interrupted on the Tien-tsin-Pukow railroad, owing to destruction of the tracks. Several houses in the city were destroyed by fire. Many families fled from the city, which is the capital of Shan-tung province .
 Reports from Weihaien on the shan tung railroad declared that force of about 1000 revolutionists had at tackled the city and destroyed the South Gate. The government troops defended the place with machine guns, which were mounted on the ramparts. The rebels were forced to retire. They have cut many telegraph wires Their object is to force Shan-tung province to declare itself against the government of President Yuan Shi- kai
 An apparently inspired statement published here affirns that Japan has no intention of interfering in the In ternaI affairs of China and will not go beyond protecting her interests should the present state of revolution prove a menace. But the statement declares that the Japanese govern ment is taking every precaution against the work of anti-Japanese mis- chief makers in China. It continues by charging that there are among Chinese politicians many who are pre- judiced against Japan and that they are now being assisted by the Ger mans in China
 "A number of newspapers in China are known to be under German iTlflu- ence,'' the statement continues, sand since the new Premier General Tuan
