JAPAN KICKS on THE TARIFF.
Objects to Duties on Hemp, Carpets
and Ten.

Washington, June 19-The protest by
the japanese government against the pend
ing tariff bill is formally embodied in a
note from Minister Torru Hoshi Of date
us late as the Sd OF the present month, The
note is couched in the most courteous Ian
guage. but there is firmness OF tone OBJ
soryable that indicates that the remon-
STRANGE may be followed by acts OF re-
Laliation II disregarded
The note begins with au apology FOR eS
pressing an opinion that under ordinary
conditions might be regarded as trenching
on domestic affairs. but cites as iust!aca-
uon the fact that important Japanese in
teresls are involved and that in the opin-
ion OF the minister the proposed increase
of duty will injure The United States no
less than Japan by retarding the growth Of
promising commercial relations The ar
ticles from Japan that the bill will seri-
ously AFFECT, says the protest are Light
weight silks silk handkerchiefs, mating
hemp and jute rags, carpets and tea.
The proposed duty on mating, says the
minister. will be so heavy that trade can
not survive in this article, not now man
ufactured In the United States. The duty
ON hemp hemp rags and carpets Will
amount TO nearly so per cent and be an
other severe blow to Japanese commerce.
As to tea. the minister says, the sudden
change In the policy of the United States
from free importation TO Il duty of from
90 to 100 per cent has awakened In the
Japanese mind the grayest fear for the
stability OF the tea industry. which for
years has been in depressed condition.
although furnishing two-thirds OF tie
tea imported into the United States
The minister says that while the I'M
pcrial government does not share the gem
eral belief that this legislation was in
tended to discriminate against Japanese
commerce. It is an unfortunate coincidence
that the imports from Japan most injur!-
ously affected are the specialtlos OF ia
naupsa production
