KURINO'S VIEWS.
Jnpnn's Minister Discusses Our inter.
ests in the East.

ests in the East.
Minister Kurino of Japan today gave the
Associated Press very significant inter-
view on the Eastern question. He said
that, in his opinion, the commercial inter-
ests of the United States in the east, par
ticularly in Japan, are so much more ex-
tensive and important than those of Ger
many or France that it would be eminent
ly desirable, in the event of a F'ranco-Ger-
man alliance with Russia to prevent the
consummation of the peace treaty, Tor the
United States to take active part IN
offsetting such an alliance.
Mr.. Kurino wished it to be clearly Under
stood. however, that this was his personal
conviction. He had not, he said, received
any instructions from his government, and
there had been no suggestion of an official
or unofficial character from him to the
State Department that the United states
should be enlisted in it's support. His views
were the result of his personal informa tion
of the extent of United States interests in
tie east.
'The commercial interests of the United
States in Japan are very much greater
than those of Germany and France" said
Minister kurino. Practically their In
terests are little or nothing, while those OF
the United States are very extensive. The
British trade comes first, and after hat
comes the trade of the United States. 1t
will he erainently proper, therefore, If the
Cnited States, in consideration of her Su-
a demonstration on the part of France and
Germany, if any such move is actually
made. 1 am not officially Informed that 1t
has been made. nor am I apprehensive Of
the move, should it be made. But, in the
event of it's being realized, then there is
little doubt, in my opinion, that the COM
mercial interests of the United States
would make it expedient 20 take part in
the issue. This. of course, would not mean
that the United States was to engage in
fight Its cooperation would undoubtedly
be effective without any radical STEP"
The War May he Renewed.
Mr.. Kurino was asked what the result
would be If China's procrastination or
foreign interference prevented a ratifica
tion of the peace agreement.
''Then," he replied, 1.-The war will be re-
newed on May with far more vigor and
determination than before. The present
cessation of hostilities is due entirely TO
the armistice, granted with the under
standing that peace was desired and would
be effected. If, however. that result is not
secured there will be most aggressive
advance on China
The interview shows that Japan is fully
alive to the menace contained in the sug
gestionS of a triple alliance to prevent
the consummation of the China-Japanese
treaty and to the advantage of meeting
this alliance with a counter alliance.

Line of 18th Street,

The committee which called on the Com
mssioners yesterday regarding the i'm
provement of 18th street did not ask that
all the additional width should be taken
from the east side. They urged that the
street be detected from the proposed line
at 18th and Park, as it extends to the
north, so that at Howard avenue the adj
ditional width would be more evenly di-
vided on each side of the present street.
This change, they claim, would not inter-
ferc with the houses on the east side,
near Park street, any more than the here
tofore proposed line.
The Commissioners today decided. how
ever not to alter the line of 17th street ex-
tended, as requested They base their ac-
ton on the assumption that any change
would be of greater detriment to other
property holders.
