The Domei Agency says the Japanese military representatives are returning to Tientsin, for talks on Monday. Ma-jor-General Muto, who is the principal army delegate, interviewed, said: “It is useless to continue, because it is impossible to agree to Britain's request to separate the question of policing Tientsin from the broader economic issues.” SHANGHAI QUIET (Received This Day, 9.35 a.m.) SHANGHAI, August 13.
