NUMBER SO
JAPAN DlsCLAlMS ALL sELFlsHNEsS
Has No Advantage Over Other Nations
on Chinese Soil.

Yokohama, April 22,-Fonowing is
the text of the statement issued by the
japanese government denying that 1t
concluded an offensive and defensive
alliance with China and declaring the
commercial advantages by Japan will
also be enjoyed by other powers, under
favored nation treatment:
"MisapprehensIons are reported cur
rent in Europe regarding the terms of
the Japan-China treaty. 1t has been
represented that Japan has secured a
per cent. ad yaIorem duty on imports
instead of a duty and formed an of
fensive and defensive alliance with
China. The commercial concessions OBJ
tanned by Japan beyond those already
secured by treaty powers under the
favored nation clause comprise the
right to navigate the Yang Use Kiang
to Chung King and also the Wung Sung
river and canals leading to 500 Chow
and Hang Chow, and the right to i'm
port machinery and certain goods duty
free and establish factories. These con-
cessions are not exclusive to Japan.
They naturally extend to European
powers in virtue of the favored nation
clause. In securing these privileges for
all, Japan expects the approval of all
powers. The reported offensive and de-
fensive alliance does not exist. An i'm
perial proclamation Just issued exhorts
the nation to moderation at the pres
ent juncture Of the country's history.

HE is A GAY DECElVER
Lucky Baldwin Says All Women
Of Experience Know i.
THEY SHOULD NOT TRUST HIM
Remarkable Demurrer 70 the Suit for
Damages Of Lille Ashley for Sc.
dnction by the Millionaire.

San Francisco, April BE. J. Bald
win, better known as Lucky Bald
win, the millionaire horse owner, min
ing man and landed proprietor, has filed
a most remarkable demurrer to the suit
of Miss Lillian Ashley against him for
seduction. Baldwin has SO many times
been the object Of similar suits that,
as he says, he no longer worries about
q little thing like that.
The latest suit against him is that Of
Miss Lille Ashley, formerly OF Boston,
who alleges that while she was visiting
in Los Angeles the aged millionaire won
her affections and betrayed her. Now
she wants 0,000 as compensation. Some
time ago Baldwin filed a demurrer to
the complaint, alleging that It did not
set forth facts sufficient for action. This
demurrer was overruled and today an
other was filed in Judge Stacks court.
In this second demurrer Baldwin pic
lures himself as a gay deceiyer and
says that his reputation Is SO well
known that no woman Of experience
would trust him. The demurrer sets
forth that Miss Ashley is a wise wo
man, acquainted with men and the
ways Of the world, and should be able
to distinguish between sincerity and de-
ceit. Baldwin states that she knew he
was a married man and una Bile to keep
a promise Of marriage. Consequently.
she did not place reliance in him, though
she declares she did. The demurrer
says that knowing that Baldwin was
a married man, she ought to have re-
sisted his prorestations and have known
his expressed sentiments Of affections
We're but the means towards an end.
Miss Ashley knew the general character
Of her betrayer and should not have
permitted herself to be led from the
path Of virtue by such evidently in
sincere protestations of love.
The demurrer alleges that no promise
of money considera ton for anticipated
betrayal can be held to be good in law
and that it does not appear from the
face Of the complaint that any other
promise had been made. Accordingly
he petitions that the suit be dismissed.
