States Minister DENLY has cabIed the
State Department from Peking that
the Japanese have taken Foo Chow,
and are threatening an advance upon
Moukden and Tien-tsin. This brief
dispatch is interpreted by the State
Department to mean that the Japan
csc intend to occupy Moukden, Port
Arthur and Tien-tsin, thus complet-
ing strategic position which will
command peace on the terms they de-
sire, or, in the absence of peace, per-
NIT them to 60 into winter quarters
and suspend the campaign until
spring.
LONDON, Nov. Tt is stated that
there are diverse opinions in Japan
respecting her terms for peace with
China. A leading journal declares
she will require the cession OF the ISL

indemnity. Another journal says Jap
an will demand the payment of s100,-
000,0 gold sterling with which to
establish gold standard.
The progressive papers, however,
demand that Japan shall insist that
China yield all her war ships, arms,
ammunition and the vessels of the
China Merchant Steamship Company.
They also demand that Japan shall
take possession of Shanghai and its
customs revenue.
