Japanese Demand All of Finest
Structures in Shantung For
Consular Offices

the city. They also want the court
house for their consular courts,
special residence for the consul ana
for each of the three vice consuls
and adequate housing for the two
under consusl, a dozen or more
clerks, fifty police and special
quarters for the police officials.
The Chinese say that there
never was a consulate in the his
tory of China which occupied
fourth of this territory and that
the property demand runs to mil
lions Of dollars. Besides. they as
sert that the former government
mansion must be occupied by the
Chinese governor. and they nave
offered the former Posts and Teie-
graphs building in its place.
The Japanese reply that their
consulate In Tsingtao Is some
thing apart from other consulates
and must overshadow others, so
that the dignity of the Japanese
empire may be maintained. They
also allege that the Posts and
TeleRraphs building had already
been promised by them for Great
Britain and that the Chinese
should not embarrass them now
by refusing.
In the matter Of shrines and
cemeteries the Chinese insist on
limiting the areas to those actually
in use and not including the lands
about them, which are In some
cases gardens residences ana
storehouses. The total Japanese
claim is said to be in excess OF
fifty acres.
Still a further controversy has
arisen over the matter Of hospitals.
There are three hospitals In all
the former general hospital. a
general hospital and a maternity
home. The first is by far the.
best, and the Chinese have Of
fered to concede the other two.
But the Japanese also want It and
point with pride to the fact that
the equipment Is now all Japanese
and must in any case be purchased
by China. OIL,
The former German equipment,
both of this hospital and Of sev.

has been taken away by. the jap
anese and their own substituted.
China demands that the German
property be restored. japan says

argument that these ''spoils OF

 Memphis, March 27-Heavy and continued rains in the central Miss issippi, Ohio and Missouri river val leys Sunday and today will cause the Mississippi to rise higher than was previously forecast, it was announced by the weather bureau today.
 Definite figures on the extent of the additional rise and the time the crest can be expected, have not been cal culated by the bureau.
 River men estimate that the stage at Memphis will reach 43 feet by Thursday,
 Levees at all points below Cairo are reported today as holding well.
 Forecasts of the weather bureau are more or less uncertain, and the officials of the bureau do not feel safe in predicting the height or time of the crest in this district. Yester- days forecasts give warning of more rain in the Ohio Valley today. An other rise in the Ohio river is pre- dicted, and this, of course, will in- crease the flood in the Mississippi.
 The river continues to rise and at o'clock yesterday afternoon it stood at All. At o'clock yesterday morn ing the official gauge showed a stage of 40.S. These readings show rise of 8 of foot in nine hours. or almost as great rise as was re- corded for the 24-hour period begin ming Saturday morning.
 The greatest anxiety over the levee situation yesterday was felt by in- habitants of the territory around Mound City. Capt. w. F. Wright master of the steamer Hustler" re- turning from the upper bends late yesterday, reported bad leak in the levee mile north of Mound City. The Hustler delivered 2,000 sand bags at that place during the day, and left this morning wit han additional ship ment of 15,000 bags
 Captain Wright said he had many visitors at the Mound City landing, everybody anxious to learn whether the boat brought bags with which they might reinforce the levee at the danger point. Seeing that the bags had arrived, the captain said the crowd departed, satisfied to remain a while longer behind the bulwark which protects them from the flood.
 Packet masters arriving in the city from down-river landings brought news of uneasiness at several places where the water is seeping the levees Patrol forces have been increased on the section of old levee north of Helena, where lies the greatest danger of a break.
 At Peters Landing, 45 miles south of Memphis, it is said people living behind the levee are becoming ap- prehensive and fear rise of more than 43 feet. There is little danger of the water going over the top of the levee, but the embankments are be- coming saturated and spring-wells are shooting up in several places be- hind the levee. Levee engineers, how ever, report that they have the situa- tion in hand, and unless the river con- tinues to rise for several days, or a week, it is believed flood of the low lands will be averted.
 All steamers plying the river south of Paducah are carrying emergency supplies of sand baks. These are be- ing unloaded at points designated by levee engineers.
