THE WAR FEELING
Is Not Universal in Japan, Says the
Japanese Minister.

Washington, Oct. 12.-Aside from eX-
etnsive military preparations by both
nations, the Japanese legation here is
not advised that either Russia or Japan
has as yet committed any act of war.
The Japanese minister is being kept
constantly advised by cablegrams from
Toxic and realizing it's gravity he is
moving with great caution. The nego-
tiations between Russia and Japan, ac-
cording to his advices, are still in pro-
gress and there is hope of a diplomatic
settlement of the questions at issue.
The minister, today, authorized The
Associated Press to make the following
statement:
His attention having been called to d
certain unauthorized statement attri-
buted to him that the public utterances
of the Japanese people are all in favor
of war with Russi.. Mr.. Togoro Taxa
hira, the Japanese minister, states that
while there is some disquiet due to the
unsettled state of affairs which has ex-
listed so long in the Far East it seems
that it has been aggravated more re-
Gently by the unfOunded rumorS re-
garding military and naval movements
in certain quarters, but in his Judgment
the intelligent Japanese has been gen.
orally calm and collected up to the
present juncture, as they know that the
matter has been for some time in the
hands of responsible parties OF
Japan and Russia, and that they
have been negotiating with a
view to arriving at an under
standing between them For his own
part Mr. Takahira said he hopes for the
best because the situation is not without
an indication so far that the Russian gov
eminent, is candidly disposed for a set
tement of the question with Japan and
therefore so long as the negotiations are
proceeding with reasonable prospects of
a result honorable to Japan there is no
rea son to be over anxious now.
The representatives of this government,
diplomats of Russia, Japan and China.
have not advised the state department
regarding recent developments and ru
mors of war over Manchura. AS has
often been pointed out. the United States
has no cause of protest because Russia
has failed to keep her pledges that she
would evacuate Manchuria October s.
The interest of the United States in Man
chura is covered by the recent treaty
between China and this country. If
Manchuria becomes annexed to Russia or
continues under Russian control the
United States will insist that the provis-
ions of the treaty be carried out. eSpec-
tally as Russia asSented to its provisions
previous to its being signed.
1t is believed here that an understanding
exists between Germany and Russia in
regard to the operations in Manchura
and that no protest, nor even disa pproval
will be expressed by Germany over any
course Russia may pursue in China.
Great Britain is thought to be the only
| country that is vitality interested and OPP
posed to the course of Russia in Manchu-
