The Northumberland Fusiliers apparently set out to avenge the death of one of their comrades, (who was killed in a brawl on the previous evening. The circum- tances in which he met his death aroused them to seek revenge, last night's grave disturbances being the outcome.

Japanese infantry made their final successful attack early yesterday afternoon and the Chinese retired at about two o'clock.
Details of the fighting are, naturally, very scanty at present. The Chinese fought fiercely and were heavily bombarded from land, sea and air before they gave way. Chinese claims to have launched a counter- attack and recaptured the city on Monday appear to be confirmed by the reports from Japanese sourées.
The large naval and military reinforcements brought up by the Japanese turned the battle.

Since the publication of the Lytton Report, the League had been unable to plead lack of impartial facts, and "the time has now come for a show-down."
The League had shirked its duties for fear of 'o Japanese threat of withdrawal, but the League, crawling, under the lorn heels of the militarists of Japan, was unworthy of existence.
