Japan's New Constitution.

SAN Francisco, March 5.-The
steamship City of New York brings mail
advices respecting the PRONUNCIATION of
the new constitution of Japan Feb. IL. In
the first place the sacred and inviolable
nature of tie imperial tide and perpituity
of the throne are associated with the
fullest emphasis. The emperor remains
as before, tie source of all law, but his
legislative function is henceiorth to be ex
ercised with the sanction OF the diet only.
lnspresence Of urgent necessity to main
tain public safety or avert public calamity,
he can issue ordinances in lieu of laws
and 1t Is expressly provided that such
ordinances must be laid before the
diet at its mex session, when if not
approved by that body, they become in
valid. The parliamentary system of the
new government vested in the house of
peers and house of representatives, con.
shutting the imperial diet of the upper
house is partly elective, partly hereditary
and partly nominative. The lower house
consists of three hundred members
elected by ballot in districts fixed by sup
Elementary law.

READING, Pa.-The announcement was
made this evening of the failure of the
Reading Iron Works which operate blast
furnaces, rolling, shot, tube and pipe
mills. The FORCES and machine shops
employ over 1900 hands. The failure was
precipitated by the entry of Judgment for
$4,000 by the Reading Railroad com
pany.
New YORK. March 5. The failure of
the Reading Iron Works is rated by
Bradstrect at over a million dollars.
Dizziness in trade and shrinkagc in
prices finally overwhelmed it. The stock
holders this afternoon say they think the
plant worth 81, SOC, 900, but do not know
what the liabilities are. The liabilities
are said by others to be about 81 900, 900,
of this 5000, 600 consists of the funded
debt, and the balance, 100000, is due to
the various parties mostly for material
purchased at various times.
The general belief here to night is that
the Reading Railroad company will as
sumo control of the Reading iron works,
that it will issue stock or bonds to other
creditors and it will then be run as a sort
Of Joint stock concern. There are several
rolling mills IN this vicinity whose product
is controlled by the Reading iron works
and they, it is believed, will shut down to-
morrow.

WASHINGTON. March 5.-The Pennsyl-

at one time it looked as though there
would be serious trouble. A crowd of
Pennsylvania militiamen had congregated
on the streets between Eighth and Ninth
and completely blockaded the thoughfare,
daring all pedestrians and drivers to pass
the line. The patrol police several times
dispersed them, but after a while it was
found necessary to appeal to Gen. Hast
ing who ordered Col. Crawford of the
10th Pennsylvania to clear the streets
and keep it clear
The colonel detailed a company to
charge up and down the streets with fixed
bayonets, and in this way the mob was
broken up. Most of the rioters were in.
toxicated, and made themselves a terror
to hucksters, keepers of small stands and
peddlers by rifling them of their goods,
and severely handling them whenever
they offered resistance.

YoUNGsTowN. o., March 5.-A mes
sage received tonight announces that in
the case of Peter l.. Kimberly against
Charles d. Arms and others residing here,
the United States supreme court to day
rendered a decision in favor of plaintiff.
The amount involved in the suit is
81 100000.
Kimberly claimed in substance that he
sent Arms as his agent to Arizona on a
prospecting tour and furnished the neces-
sary funds: that Arms located a number
of valuable claims which have since paid
heavy dividends and refused to make any
accounting to him for any OF The trans
actions.
Arms denied that he was the agent of
Kimberly and claimed that whatever in
vestments he made we're with his own
funds and that Kimberly had no interest
in them. Arms is in a%fluent circum-
stances and recently completed the finest
residence in the city, costing over $780,

attempt to do anything but purely execu-
tive business A two weeks session at
most is expected.
The amount carried by the general APP
preparation bills passed at this session OF
congress is 1921 $40, 900 against $500, $50,
600 for the current year.
The following bills did not receive the
presidents signature and consequently

United States district judges to instruct
iuries in writing in certain cases; the act
to make Port Angeles, w. T., a port of
delivery, and the act pensioning the
widow of Gen. Fitzpatrick.
