The JaPanesc Minister sticks n Pin

European Capitals.

Washington. Aug. s.-The japanese
minister. Mr.. Takak;ra, said, in the
course OF an informal talk yesterday,
that he set no store in the cabled re-
ports from foreign capitals hat Japan
had taken umbrage Mt Nice-Admiral
Seymour's trip up the Iang-;se-Kiang,
and his visits to the vIceroy OF Nam
Kin. 1t was quite well understood,
Mr.. Takahira pointed cut. that the
,lang-tse-Kiang valley is the British
sphere of influence. and that British in
terests are extensive throughout that
region. Moreover, he said that the
,iccroy of Nankin is {: man of enliGht.
ened and progressive sentiments. who
riways has shown great consideration
fcr foreigners, so that his cordial re-
ception of ADMIRAL Seymour is quite
natural. Under these circumstances
Mr.. Takahira disnIsses as quite I'M
founded the foreign conjecture that
the cordial relations between Great
britain and Japan may be strained by
this incident. and that it will give &C.
casion for a Impeachment between
Russia and Japan.
The minister regards the attitude of
japan as so uniformly harmonious
with all the powers interested in the
present conflict that there is not likely
to be any marked change in the pres
ont international relations.

SOMETHING OF A ROORBACK,
CermRny's War on s american anned
Goods Proves n EoOme-
rang.

Washington. Aug. THE provision
ing of Germany's naval forces for the
China campaign has been greatly in
terfered with by the scarcity of canned
meats in the empire. according to a
report to the state department from
United States Consul Hugh Pitcairn, at
Hamburg.
Tie naval authorities at Kiel,
me says, are compelled to buy
meats at a high price in foreign Ii
tries, because of the inability of Ger
many to supply home demands.
Co2sul Pitcairn transmits an article
published in a Denmark newspaper,
telling of an order for 10000 pounds
of sausage placed by the German gov
ernmcnt at Slagelse, for use on the
Chinese squadron. He also sends an
article published in a Hamburg news
paper, giving further evidence of the
straits to which Germany has been
brought in supplying her ships crews
bound for Chinese waters with meat.
American canned meats. the latter ar
ticlc says, have been largely used in
supplying the German navy. The
army. it states, is supplied by two
large meat-preserving plants at Span
dau and Mainze, and there is an urgent
necessity for creating new plants and
extending the old ones TO such a degree
that the provisioning of both the army
and the navy can be accomplished by
the home industry alone.
