SHAUKIWAN AFFAIR.
Submerged beneath an outward air of resignation to publie au- thority, there appeared to be still feeling of resentment and anta- gonism among the Chinese in Yau. mati yesterday afternoon, which of gave expression in the form threats to the police of setting fire to Japanese shops and resklences.
One bold attempt was actually made in this direction about noon. when it was reported that fire had broken out in a Japanese fat on the top Boor of No. 1 Wat Ching Street, Two appliances from Kowloon and a couple from Mong Kok Fire Stations, the latter under the direc tion of Assistant Station Officer

This is the most outly. ing district to be affected so far, and the incident was notable in- asmuch as though two shots were ared by the police, one of which wounded a man, the crowd con- tinued to battle against a band of Police numbering 15.
Hemmed-in by the crowd, and being subjected to all kinds of mis- wiles thrown from the upper verandahs of buildings lining both sides of Main Street, the Police party had their hands more than full and practically all suffered injury is some form or other. In- spector Peter Grant was injured in the knee.
Finally, in the course of the atrugyic, the crowd refusing to i break up in apile of repented baton charges, two revolver,shots were fired, one of which wounded u riater. The crowd still remain- ed pugnacious, but finally com. mence to disperse.
Meantime an emergency enll had been sent through to the Cen- |tral Police Station as a result of which Police and Reservista ruslied to the scene, arriving just na the crowd was dispersing. Troops from Lemun barracks also arrived In the spot
