land, the mounties, trappers and In
dams called him mad. They said he
was crazy; crazy like fox. First
they went boldly to his hermit cabin.
Indians had complained that some
one had been robbing their traps.
The trail Of the thief led to Johnson's
place.
The officers knocked on the door.
Bullets through the wood answered
them. Constable A. w. King fell. Sc
verely wounded. His companion. r.
w. Mcdowell, loaded the wounded Of
ficer on dogsled and in the teeth OF
cruel arctic blizzard mushed back
80 miles to Aklavik in the remark
able time Of 20 hours. The arctic sell
dom has seen such speed under such
conditions. 1t saved the wounded
mans life.
Other police in greater numbers
went to the mad trapper's cabin.
Bullets warned them away, but they
would not leave. They bombed the
cabin roof. Johnson's mad laugh
echoed to them across the glistening
snow. Bullets from his guns kept
them at a distance.
The mounties sought to starve him
out; but one day the cabin was 81
lent. Johnson had escaped through
tunnel.
They thought he couldn't get far.
Hard As Yukon Ice
But Albert johnson was as hard as
the ice that seals the Yukon lakes.
With a pack of policemen behind and
grim northland winter ahead he
mushed on. Once the law caught up
with him. 1t was then bullet from
his rifle killed Constable Millen.
The mounties, leaving two OF their
number on guard, returned to Aka
vik for supplies. While they were
gone the mad trapper slipped away.
The chase was renewed.
'Wop" May and his plane kept the
posse supplied with food and am
munition. johnson mushed on. Of
ten he doubled on his trail so foxily
that he was at his pursuers' rear,
watching his own pursuit.
But Wednesday the trail OF the
mad trapper. plain as print in fresh
fallen snow, zig-zagged. It meant he
was through, hts strength. great
though it was, was exhausted.
Staff Sergeant Hersey, forging
ahead Of the posse, came upon him
first. johnson was weak: but there
still was strength to lift gun. still
power to press a trigger, still that
uncanny aim that could send bull
let to q target at half . mile.
Hersey fumbled to get his own
weapon from the sled to which 1t
was strapped. Too late. Two bullets
tore into his body.
The plane circled overhead. Bombs
were ready to be dropped, but the
posse by now was too near.
The full fc-cc Of policemen. In
dians and trappcrs came forward,
their guns speaking In unison. A
single volley dropped the mad trap
per Of Rat river in the snow.

nation had reached Tokyo the first
draft Of the League Of Nations coun-
ellis note to Japan yesterday on the
Sino- Japanese controversy had eman-
ated from American sources.
How Japan would reply to the note
had not been decided late today but
official opinion favored q reply ques-
tioning the legality Of the councils
procedure, together with publication
Of statement to the world, issued
simultaneously, answering all the ac-
cusations contained in the note.
The note contained an appeal to
"the supreme sense Of honor of Jap
an" asking her to cease hostilities in
China and said the IL neutral men,
bers Of the council earnestly trusted
Japan would admit her obligations
and justify the confidence imposed in
her by the rest OF the world"
There are strong indications Amer
lea had finger in this pie" an Of
fetal declared. He declared, however,
that the first draft Of the note, which
he asserted was Of American origin,
was much more mild in form than
UAAC 4AOVC WAuOAk AAA0SAy CVV4FCA AAOAA
the councils drafting committee.
In foreign office circles 1t was said
the action Of the IL neutral members
Of the council was irregular, illegal
and entirely inadmissible."
Few members Of the council now
are empowered to act in its name, y
the spokesman said, these IL coun-
cillors are not diplomats accredited
to Tokyo, hence they have no right
to address the Japanese government
in the names Of their respective states.
We intend to stress these legal OBJ
jections In our reply"
1.-The document has created most
unpleasant impression here" he said,
land 1t is unacceptable because it is
addressed to Japan alone.
Those who sent 1t assume thereby
that Japan is the aggressor, whereas
the fact is that China is the aggres-
sor.
"such a one-sided appeal is unpre-
cedented in the leagues history. 1t
prejudges Japan and intimates that
the Chinese are in the right. We are
unable to accept any such intima-
tion."

Japanese Demands
Called Impossible
After Conference
Continued from page one)

Mayor WI Teh Chen. who also re-
ceived copy of the ultimatum. said
the decision would be put up to the
national government. temporarily
functioning at Loyang. It was
thought probable the government
would reject the Japanese demands.
The Chinese also said they had not
received a formal ultimaum but ex-
pected one in the immediate future
as result of today's brokne-down
negotiations.
The Chinese version of today's Jap
anese demands" was that they not
only withdraw twelve and half miles
but must agree that this neutral zone
be permanent. A second provision
was the all Chinese Notifications in
the Shanghai Woosung areas and the
Lion Forest forts above Woosung
must be permanently demolished.
The third provision and last was for
permanent Japanese occupation OF
the Hongkew district of Shanghai
which, although outside the interna-
tional settlement is the home OF many
Japanese, and Is now occupied by the
Japanese MILITARY.
Army Moves Swiftly
While the conferences were going
on the big Japanese army continued
swiftly to move out of its quarters
and take positions along the front.
The soldiers relieved the bluejackets
who have patrolled the area between
Chapel and Woosung since the hos
tilities began. The bluejackets were
left with only half-mile sector along
the boundary between Chapel ana the
international settlement.
Units of japanese artillery, cavalry
and infantry moved out OF the con-
centration camp into the YangtSepoo
district and fleet of tanks also was
taken forward and assembled on the
outer edge of the Hongkew area.
Meanwhile the Japanese air fleet
at the Yangtsepoo airdrome con-
tinued to grow. Trucks poured into
the field in a steady stream bring
ing knocked down planes from the
ships.
Mechanics worked busily assem-
bling these planes as fast as they
were brought in.
The auxiliary airport. hear the
main field. was completed today.
Field Guns Set Up
Outside the japanese army head
quarters on the edge of the interna-
tional settlement three field guns
were set up to safeguard against
Chinese artillery bombardment. These
guns were pointed toward the Chin
csc area at Kiangwan.
In the midst Of the peace negotia-
tons an important Japanese COM
mercial institution in the heart OF
the international settlement was
wrecked by a bomb. The bomb ex-
ploded at the entrance to the offices
Of Mitsui Bussan Kaisha, a block
from the famous Shanghai Bund.
The blast tore away the entrance to
the building and Jared the whole
crowded business district.
The building is headquarters for
many Japanese organizations ope-
rating cotton mills, steamships and
importing and exporting businesses.
