SERIOUS CLASH
IN CAIRO
POLICE FORCED TO FIRE ON MOB
POLITICAL FEELING AT DANGER POINT
Cairo, Nov. 13.
There were further disturbances here this evening, following a huge Wafdist mass meeting which passed a resolution for non-co-operation with Great Britain and demanded the resignation of Nessim Pasha's Govern- ment.
The situation took a decidedly serious turn when angry crowds attacked police with bottles and stones. The police were forced to fire on several occasions, and it is understood there were many casualties on both sides.
The outbreak to-night was the climax of three days of political excitement over the attitude of Britain and the Egyptian constitutional question.

JAPAN'S CONSUL TAKES ACTION
STRESSES, FAILURE TO FIND KILLER
SEQUEL TO SHANGHAI OUTRAGES
Shanghai, Nov. 14. The Japanese Consul-General, Mr. Itáro Ishii, to- day will call the serious attention of the Shanghai Municipal Police to the recurring anti-Japanese activi- ties in the Foreign Settlement, he has announced. He will lay stress upon the failure of the police authorities to capture the murderer of the Japanese Marine on Sunday and upon the attack on a Japanese shop in Nan- king Road on Tuesday.
Referring to the Nanking Road affair, Mr. Ishii said: "To-night's incident, coming at a time. when the assassin of Warrant Officer Nakayama is still at large, is extremely regrettable."
"I intend to call the serious attention of the Shang- hai Municipal Police to the matter as soon as the facts of the case are established. We cannot afford to have the culprits escape all the time," he said.
