FOREIGN EYE-WITNESS'S ACCOUNT OF TSINAN OUTBREAK.
JAPANESE BARRICADES REMOVED AT SOUTHERN GENERAL'S REQUEST.
SHOOTING BEGAN AFTERWARDS.
TEINOTAO, May 17th.
Late last evening two foreignera arrived from Tsinan. One of these gentlemen was a well-known foreigner of Shang- hai. The other was Mr. H. J. Timperley of the China Famine Relief Association. They were actual eye witnesses of the distur "bances that occurred in the protected area, and their story will do much to clear the doubt as to what actually happened at Tsinantu. after the arrival of the Southern forces.. Marshal Chang Chung Chang left Tainan at midnight on Tuesday, May 1st, for Tehchow. The North ern evacuation was orderly and conditions at Tsinan prior to the arrival of the Southern forces peaceful-no looting" or distur- bances of say sort."
Fong's Troops Satza Missions. The Shantung army were able to evacuate all their aeroplanes; po rolling stock was captured except one armoured Russian train cover ing the retirement which was cut off at the Yellow River bridges and captured. Later the Russians on this train were led captive through Tsinan with stout cords pierced through their noses.
On Wednesday morning, May tud, Southern forces began to ar ve at Tainan from Taian and Mingshui on the Kino-Tai Railway, In the interval Japanese armed forces consisting of 500 of sil ranks from the Tientsin Garrison, erected street barricades of barbed wire and sand bags in two protected arena Two areas were formed instead of one in order to permit the Chinese populace to pass through without hindrance, as one area would have cut off several main arteries of travel, "
The troops arriving were those of Marshal Feng Yu Hsiang and General Chiang Kai Shek; and it is to be recorded that Feng Yu Hsiang's troops immediately on arrival at Tsinan asized all Roman Catholic premises for billeting their soldiera.
Japanese Barricades Removed. Immediately after the arrival of Chiang Kai Shek the barricades were removed, and up to Wednes day evening everything was quiet, no disorder business, as usual." There is no doubt that it was hoped on both Chiang Kai Shek's side and the Japaneso that the re- moval of the barricades would re- lieve the tension, which was un- doubtedly great. At all the Japanese barricades were large posters clearly written in Chinese, announcing that the Japanese were thero only to guard their own pro- perty and had no intention of inter- fering with the Chinese in any way. Chinese youths were continually trying to slip up to these posters and paste anti-Japanese handbills Who fired the first shot will never be known. But it is a bad point against the Chinese soldiers that the Japanese did remove their bar- ricades when asked to do so,
Chiang Kai Shek did well, all are agreed; he did his utmost to stop the Chiness firing, but the soldiers would not obey orders.

There were some Japanese in the hotel, but they luckily escaped and got away over the back wall before the Chinese soldiers spotted them.
Boutherners Mostly Withdrawn. Late on Friday (May 4th) Chiang Kai Shek came to an understanding with the Japanese forces that sil Southern forces would be immedi- ately evacuated to a distance of 30
