A JAPANESE
CABINET CRISIS.
There Are Plenty Of Signs Of an
Early Breakup

Native Press Insists That Peace Nego-

Yokohama, Aus. 3, via San Francis
co. Aug. 22.--(Correspondence OF the
Associated Press -slgns are rife Of an
early break up of the present cabinet

from those of upper houses In the old

politics. Ii was largely because Mar
outs Ito ignored this fact that his cabi-
net went to pieces. He thought because
he had a strong party behind him In
the lower house that he was secure.
But the peers asserted their power with
telling effect and his only resource was
to invoke the mandate Of the sovereign,
in order TO carry his measures. The fact
that the most conservative part Of the
government Is becoming intensely radi-
cal and aggressive exctes much inter-
est and comment
The native press Is still dwelling up
on the failure Of the council OF the pow
ers TO bring the Manchurlan question
to a definite settlement and strongly in
sists that all the peace negotiations win

made. Russia Is recognized as the
only gamer In the whole course Of the
Chinese trouble, and that she has car
ried all points In the peace arrange

REPLY TO ATTY.GEN. KNOX.
n. p. Martin, OF Anti Trust League,
Gets Very Sarcastic.

Washington, Aug 29.-H p. Martin,
chairman of the Joint committee Of the
Antitrust league. has replied to the
letter of Atty. Gen. Knox sent to the
committee Tuesday He says In part
I'VE were not aware that there was
any improperly in citizen or body OF
citizens publicly addressing the chief
prosecuting officer OF the United States
In reference TO grave violations OF law
that were being committed to the great
injury Of the people of the United
States.
ATTY. Gen. Knox Gays: Neither at
the time OF the formation of the United
States Steel corporation nor az any
time was | officially connected with the
Carnegie Steel company This looks
like a very sweeping denial on the part
of the attorney general as to the many
charges that have been made In the
public press TO the effect that he was
formerly connected with the CPrnegie
company or the steel trust But the
force and effect of this denial are en-
tirely DESTROYED by the remarkable ad-
mission which the attorney neral
makes in the next sentence when he
saws: i was formerly one Of its gal
featuring business. This language of
the Encouragement certainly looks
evasiye. in view OF the fact that II is
currently believed the members OF the
steel combine selected one Of their
former attorneys for attorney general
In order that they might have friend
at court In time OF popular ciamor for
the enforcement Of the law against the
trusts.
I'VE will give him an opportunitynow
to reassure the people as 10 his desire
and Intention to enforce the law against
trusts. VIII Atty-Gen. Knox offer a
reward for the production Of yhe In
eliminating evidence against the trust
for which we asked and which he says
he does not possess? VIII he announce
tomorrow that the department Of JUS
tice OF the United States will pay a
substantial reward 20 any person or
persons who will produce evidence that
will lead TO the arrest and conviction OF
any person or corporation guilty Of VIC
latng the federal statute against

breakers and the people viii no longer

To catch severe cold in the summer

TO catch cold In the winter. The depress.

Summer colds have led TO more cases OF

ton OF these statements. He had asum-

IDEA OF WAR RIDICULED.
French Consul In New York Tells OF
Trouble with Turkey.

New York, Aug. 22.-Edward Bru-
wart the French consul general In this
city, ridiculed the possibility Of a war
between his country and Turkey. The
trouble arises" he SAID over the
wharves there. They were to charge
vessels for docking privileges and the
Turkish government guaranteed the in
come up TO a certain fixed sum yearly
II the income from the wharves did
not reach that amount the Turkish
government was to make up the differ
ence The income did not reach the
sum fixed and the company wants Tur-
key TO make good its guarantee
There comes In another question.
You know France has a postofiice OF
her own in Constantinople. Turkey does
not like that She SAYS II interferes
with her postal service, but France will
not consent to do away with her post
Office. Then Turkey tries to force
France. She says, Very well. You
keep your postoflce and we will keep
the money belonging to your wharf
company. When you abolish the post
office we will pay the warf company
Now France intends to have both the
postoiiice and the warf company's
money She has seen the success your
country has had In collecting money
from the sultan and she is going to col
lect the money due her.
But war. No. This is what you call
a bluff II is like Two children. One
says, I will not play with YOU and
goes home Then they do not speak
until one apologies or a friend makes
II up between them. You may think
OF war when France sends Munir Bey,
Turkeys ambassador in Paris. his pass
ports. France will not do that, though
Munir Bey is not very well liked In
Paris"
Mehmet Webb, the Turkish consul
general In this city, also said that he
did not think there was a possibility
Of war between France and Turkey.
