Four Japanese Killed and 20
Wounded in Fight Between
26th Brigade and General
Chen Tao Yuan's Troops
Chinese Casualties Severe

Tokyo, May 1O.-(N-Japancsc
troops today continued to battle
against the Chinese Nationalists
around Tsinan in an attempt to dis
arm them and it was stated uncffi-
cially in government circles that
Japan would neither ask nor accept
mediation in the Shantung affair.
Four Japanese were killed and 20
wounded when the twenty-cighth
brigade under General Sotoyama
joined battle with a powerful force
Of Chinese under General Chen Tiao
Yuan. The Chinese casualties were
severe.
Prior to this engagement Gener-
al Sotoyama's forces had succeeded
in disarming a force of southerners
at Kotien, about Is miles east of
Tsinan. The Japanese forces also
occupied many strategic points
around Tsinan.
The unofficial government view
regarding mediation was that Japan
did not consider the present situa-
tion war and that therefore the mat
ter could be settled automatically
between China and Japan. 1t was
not believed that America would as
sumo the role of mediator and init
nations that the United States
would were regarded as propaganda
cmanating from Tsinan.

blame for the fresh outbreak of
fighting on the Nationalists. 1t

FEELING RUNS
HIGH TODAY IN
MINING AREA
Officers Attempt 10 Arrest
Those Connected With Last
Nights Riot

Caldwell, O., May 1O.-tF-Feel-
ing ran high in the Noble county
mining district today as Sheriff
Byron Schaefer and force of dep
uties sought to serve nearly score
of affidavits charging union miner
sympathizers with rioting and vio-
lation of injunctions in connection
with last nights disturbance at
Coal Ridge.
Fear Of further trouble was ad-
mitted by authorities, who said the
recent reopening of several mines on
a nonunion basis had greatly in
creased feeling against operators
and nonunion workmen.
Promise of arrests by Sheriff
Schaefer resulted from pelting of
three busses carrying nonunion
miners to their homes from work at
Coal Ridge last night. A crowd of
$50 union sympathizers hurled
bricks, stones and other missiles.
Quick arrival by the sheriff and
Colonel Christy, national guard OBJ
servor, was credited with preventing
more serious trouble.
Gathering of union sympathizers
along federal highwal between
Caldwell and the Guernsey county
line, in violation of recent injunc-
tions granted in common pleas court
here, also was reported to the
sheriff.

While admitting the defeat,
