Sept. 8The Chinese rov ernment is much concerned over the agitation In Japan in connection with the killing of several Japanese in the Bghting at Nanking, and. desiring to make reparation, has Instructed the Chinese dAffalres at Toklo to express regrets to the Japanese Foreign Office. The Chinese Foreign Office here already haa expressed regrets to the Japanese legation. The Oeneral In command at Nanking has sent a message of sympathy to the Japanese Consul-General and has of fered to compensate the families of the victims. The newly-appointed Chlne.e minister at Toklo has been ordered to Nanking to conduct a full Inquiry. Three weeks ago, fearing the possi bility of untoward Incidents, the Chi nese government urged the Japanese legation to withdraw its Nationals from Nanking, and only a few days ago the Japanese legation notified the Chinese Foreign Office that eight Japanese offi cers, who had served the Southern guns, haa been returned to Japan. Major-Oeneral Shlba, who waa com missioned by the Japanese government to Investigate the matter, admits In a published report that Japanese officers and soldiers without their government's consent, acted as local commanders among the Southerners. .1... .1 j : a formal order from the Minister of Justice to take Thaw In charge, wnicn me claims Is necessary under the act when the alien affected nas oeen m country ten days.
