V. WASHINGTON The highest Japanese officer in China's former capital Nanking, His Highness Lieutenant General Prince Yasuhiko Asaka, last week expressed his apologies to Third Secretary John M. Allison cf the U. S. Embassy. In Nanking, where outrages by the Japanese soldiers had continued for over a month, Third Secretary Allison and Charles Riggs of Nanking University, a U. S. citizen, went out last week with a Chinese woman to try to identify Japanese soldiers whom she had accused of having raped her thricel. Since Japanese soldiers had taken the weman from the agricultural implement shop of Nanking University, Mr. Riggs had applied to Third Secretary Allison for help. Mr. Allison, according to his official report, was escorted by Japanese gendarmes who advised him not to enter a building into which they had agreed to take the Chinese woman so that she might point out the rapists. Then they pushed her roughly through the gate, and as Messrs. Al lison and Riggs impulsively moved to follow, a Japanese sentry shouted in English "Back! Back--" "I backed up slowly," cabled Third Secretary Allison in his report, "but before I had time to get out of the gate he slapped me across the face and then turned and did the same to Mr. Riggs." Mr. Allison, who speaks Japanese, diplomatically confined himself to adding that the sentry, "livid with rage. . . shouted at us in a most offensive manner," grabbed Mr. Riggs, tore the collar and some buttons from his shirt. President Roosevelt spent two hours conferring with State Department officials, then U. S. Ambassador Jos. Clark Grew at Tokyo was ordered to obtain an expression of regret from of Foreign Japanese Affairs Kensuke Horinouchi. This Washington officially accepted as "satisfactory," closed the case. Wheth er the Chinese woman identified any rapists, what happend to her or them, remained unknown to the State Department. pro-ha- f j MCKEL - - - Since the design be I WASHINGTON any U.

In the stableyard a second rolice-ma- n was killed while an soigry crowd chanted: "Ivill them! Burn them out!" When gasoline was tossed on the brown straw of the stable roof, the Corneuils stumbled out, black shadows against the crackling yellow flames. The Widow Corneuil and one Eto son were instantly killed. The second son escaped to, the shadows of the woods behind the house, to be captured next day, the 200 francs still unpaid, two charges of murder against Movie People.
