SAN FRANCISCO, July 2R (by the Associated Press).?The Japanese foreign office has requested an investigation of a fire which destroyed several Japanese business "houses at Marysville. Calif., July 21. T. Ohta, Japanese consul general here, has announced. Ohta said he had already advised Tokio he did not think the fire was of incendiary origin. "1 believe the Japanese povern mont's request for an investigation of the fire might have been prompted by reports that there was evidence of an anti-Japanese sentiment in Marysville," he said. J The order for the investigation was [ received on the day of the fire. A I wireless message received here from Tokio said a dispatch was received j by a Japanese newspaper from its I Japanese correspondent here stating "Japanese stores were burned at Marysville during an anti-Japanese demonstrat ion."
