Johnson had not been here very long be-

Why Japan Does Not Care to Listen
to Mediation.


Toxic, Nov. 90 (per steamer Gaelic,
via San Francisco, Dec. s14.)-It is with.
the greatest reluctance that Japan
listens to suggestions for mediation
from any quarter The aim of the
Chinese, government has always been
to deIude its people into the belief
that the emperor rules all nations, and
that when one particular vassal state
becomes troublesome he has only to
order its subjugation by others, and
thus restore tranquility without I'M
necessary disturbance of his own COM
posure. The idea that the mighty
Middle Kingdom can humble itself so
far as to sue for peace is one that
must never enter the mind of the pop
ulace. If Japan were to treat Indirect
", through western powers, 1t would,
in course of time, be given out that
China had commanded the tributary
states of Europe to bring the rebel
1ious Japanese to terms, and had thus
settled the business without impairing
her own dignity. This conviction, once
established throughout the empire, the
court of Pekin would resume its habit
ual insolence and again block the
wheels of progress in the east.

Ih1S Is what Japan liiulIy pelieNeS,
and she is, therefore, resolved that
the whole Chinese nation shall be
made aware of the governments

with a body Of Chinese officials Of
questionable rank in a. merchant ship,
of the Chinese Steamship Navigation
company, under the German flag. bear
ing a letter from Ii Hung Chang. in
which the Japanese authorities were
requested, with apparent earnestness,
to discuss terms of accommodation.
Nothing would delight China mors
than to be able to say hereafter tina

The inquiry of the United States as
to Japan's willingness to accept q
prefer of assistance is regarded rath-
ar as retarding than accelerating the

DEBs is SORE.
But Will Abide by the Law just the
Same.

Chicago, Dec. 14.-Debs said tonight
regarding Judge Woods decision:
Il am a law-abiding man and will
abide by the law as construed by the
judges. But if Judge Woods decision
is the law, all labor organizations may
as well disband. According to him,
every strike is a conspiracy and is un-
lawful. Then if our wages are reduced
so per cent and two of us decide to
quit rather than submit tie the reduc-
ton we are guilty Of a conspiracy. OF
course, he says, strikes are all right
if they are peaceable, but who can tell
when violence will follow a strike? In
the strike of last summer, every effort
was made by the leaders to prevent
violence We warned the men to re-
spect the property and even to keep
off the right of way of railway COM
panies. Judge Woods intimates this
advice is given for the effect that it
will have upon the public. What right
has he to draw such an inference?
There is nothing in the evidence to
support it."
