Peking, June 19.
According to Chinese reports the Fengtien soldiery are making things cz lively for the natives m Kalgan as they made them in the vicinity of Nanyuan last year. It is said that the shops on the main business streets which used to be open until nearly midnight are prompted by the presence of unruly soldiery in the streets at night to close short~ ly after dark. The soldiers are also charged with entering private houses and with thieving and one case of attempted assault upon 2 woman is cited in which the soldier, when resisted, coolly stepped back and shot the victim, wounding her seriously in the shoulder. Such matters as these have a direct bearing upon all discussions of the value of the foreigner's extraterritorial rights.
