JAPAN is sATIsFIED.
VIII Accept Russia's Explanation of
Manchurian Matter.


Washington, April 1O.-The japanese
minister, Mr.. Takahira, today received
official advices from the foreign office at
Toxic entirely dispelling the alarming re-
ports as to a RussO-Japanese rupture,
and showing that the japanese govern
ment accepted the latest declaration of
Russia on Manchuria with the same
sense of satisfaction that it mad been re
ceiVed within the United States Mr. Ia
kahira called at the state department
and informed Secretary Hay of the graft
flying turn of events.
The position of Japan. as now defined
in the highest official quarters, is prac-
tically the same as that of the United
States. A copy of the recent Russian
communication was delivered to Japan
at the same time it was given to this
government, although the texts differ
slightly, they are alike in all material
points.
The Japanese government now makes
known that it accepts the declaration as
made in entire good faith, and like the
United States, it is quite satisfied TO leave
the Mdnchurian question in its present
status. The assurances given by Russia
are of SIfch a character that the Japanese
authorities, confidently look forward 70 a
course of action which viii remove the
perpleXity and dangers in which the issue
has been involved thus fav-
As the other powers already have inGi-
Gated their acceptance of the Russian

pears to restore the harmonious concert
which has thus far proceeded in dealing
with China.

he knew anything of any connection of
Ripley with these occurrences. Gov
eTnOr Bradley said Ripley had none, so
far as he knew. Asked if Ripley s
company had not been disbanded at
this time, witness said he thought it
was disbanded about that time.

CATHOLIC CHURCH

Montreal, April IA pastoral letter
from Archbishop Bruchesf has been
read in all the Roman Catholic

recent decision in the Delpit case and
to the action of the legislature, in
granting to the Mount Royal cemetery
the power to cremate bodies in place
of buTying them, if so desired
As to the former. the archbishop
merely restates the attitude of the
church on mixed or irregular mar
riageS- which cannot be affected by the
judgment of civil tribunals. and warns
all communicates not to offend at the
risk of severe ecclesiastical penalties
With respect to cremation, the arch
bishops declaration is of greater in

As explained here, this action was de-

Dewets intellect had weakened. that his
influence with his followers was dimin-

campaign, in view of Geuerel Dewet's ir-
responsibility, rested with General Botha
