Two strong Japanese fleets have
appeared on the Chinese coast, but
it was explained the visits were merely
part of the annual cruise and were not
intended as a display of force in the

One fleet. consisting of 81 vessels,

sisting OF 27 vessels, including three
battle cruisers, arrived at Annoy in the

Reports from Japanese sources in
Peking said that the Japanese minister
there, acting on instructions from his
home government, has called on the
British minister and has suggested the
formation of a joint commission made
of the powers concerned and competent
Chinese authorities to investigate the
Marking affair of last week. This COM
mission would take steps to have pun

Although there have been no anti

1t is feared that the collapse of the
northern militarists might result in
anarchical conditions which would inn
peril foreigners. The defeat of General
