Japan's Statement.

YOKOHAMA, April 22.-The follow
ing Is the text OF the statement issued
by the Japanese government denying
that it has concluded an offensive
and defensive alliance with China.
and declaring the commercial ad-
vantages secured by Japan will also
be enjoyed by other powers under the
favored nation clause:
Misapprehensions are reported cur
rent in Europe regarding the terms of
the Japan China treaty. 1t has been
represented that Japan has secured
the two per cent ad valorem duty on
imports instead of specific duty and
formed an offensive and defensive al
lance with China. The CONNER.
clal concessions obtained by Japan
beyond those already secured by the
treaty powers under the favored ma
ton clause comprise the right to nav
lgate the Yang Use Kiang to Chung
King, and also the Woon Sung river
and the canals leading to 500 Chow
and Hank Chow, and the right to i'm
port machinery and certain goods free
of duty and establish factories. These
concessions arc not exclusive to Japan
but they naturally extend to Euro.
pean powers by virtue of the favored
nation clause. In securing these
privileges for all, Japan ryyucts the
approval of all the n.Wcrs. The re-
ported cffcnS.o and defensive ALI
ance does not exist. The imperial
proclamation just issued exhorts the
nation to moderation at the present
juncture Of the country's history.

The Number of Business Failures Consid-
erably Increased over Last Year.
New YORK, Dec 2S. -Bradstreets' review
Of trade says: As is the rule in Christmas
week, wholesale trade has been quiet
The holidays, tho close Of the year and
stock taking tend to make business slow
and promise only a light trade until late
in January. At various cities. notably
New York. Boston, Baltimore and
Chicago, anticipations as to the character
of trade early in the coming year are hope
full, but it remains to be seen whether the
downward movement of demand and
prices and the delay in putting the cur
rency on u sound basis, all of which have
begun to show themselves in trade condi-
tions, will permit of as early and marked
gains in staple lines of trade in 1896 as has
been confidently anticipated.
Business failures in the country for a
completed year number 1903, an increase
of more than per cent, Notwithstanding
this is the second year following a panic,
in which, as shown by records 10 is usual
for the number of failures to decline. The
increase Of per cent. in number is ac-
companied by gain of 6 per cent. in
liabilities of those failing, and the com
mercial death rate, which averaged 20 in
every 100 engaged in business during the
five years from 1890 to 1894, inclusive, and
ranged as high as $50 in the panic year
1898, down to l.2l in 1891, has risen to 1.23

the saloon of Andrew Ambrocious in which
about fourteen men wagcd battle upon each
other for about half an hour and several
were seriously injured 1t is feared two will
die. They were taken to the Miners hos

The affair was a sequel to stabbing
ailray that occurred ON Christmas night.
One John Pulaski entered the house of
Anthony Waslusk and picked quarrel
during which PalusSi stabbed Wasluski i'm
the throat, innicting a serious but not dan
gerous wound.
Early this morning friends of the injured
man met palusli and some friends in
Ambrocious' saloon and 90 fight eusued.
Everything within reach was used as a
weapon The lights were oNt.uguishod and
desperate battle in darkness cnsued.
Several chairs were smashed TO splntcrs.
bottles, decantcrs and glasses were shattered
and the saloon was badly wrecked.
When the fight ended it was found that
Paluslli suffered the most Of the eight or ten
victims. He sustained coucussion of the
brain and many severe lacemtions. Adam
Witcuf3li also received several bad cuts and
was removed to the Miners hospital with

was caused by spirit of vengeance for the
