is the text of the statement issued by the
japanese government denying the re-
ports that II has concluded an offensive
and defensive alliance with China and
declared that the commercial advantage
be secured by Japan will also be en-
joyed by the other powers under favored
nation treatment;
Misapprehenslons are reported to be
current in Europe regarding the terms
of the Japanese-Chinese treaty. 1t has
been represented that Japan has secured
9 per cent ad valorem duty on imports
instead of a specific duty, and has also
formed an offensive and defensive ALI.
ance with China. The commercial con-
cessions obtained by Japan, beyond
those already secured by the treaty
powers under the favored nation clause,
comprise the right to navigate tho Yang
Use Kiang to Chung King, and also the
Woon Sung river and the canals leading
to 500 Chow and Hang Chow, and the
right to import machinery and certain
goods duty free and to establish fac.
tories.
These concessions are not exclusive to
Japan; they naturally EXTEND to the
European powers in virtue of the
favored nation clause. In securing these
privileges for all, Japan expects the ap.
prevail OF all the powers. The reported
offensive and defensive alliance does
not exist. An imperial proclamation

moderation at the present juncture Of
the country's history.

two counsel On side will be heard at

Although the order does not explicitly
so state, il means that argument will be
heard, not on the merits Of the income

mcnt. il is expected, will include the eN-
tent to which the rehenring shall go. that
is, whether it shall be confined merely to
the point on which the court was evenly
divided, the constitutionaity of the ln-
come Tax law as a whole, or whether the
whole question shall be reopened and new
argument made OIL the question of whether
| or not rents are exempt from taxation, AS
to which there was Il clear majority OF the
court against this feature OF the taS.
