The CRISIS OFF YOKOHAMA.

The fact that the Vladivostok squad
ron is outside Yokohama does not
necessarily mean that it is going to
have its own way. There are japanese
naval people TO reckon with. 1t is only
twenty-six hours steaming from Togo s
rendezvous to Shimonosekt straits and
as much more time should put fast
! cruisers through the Inland Sea and
/ off Yokohama. Kamamura could go
! through to the objective in less time.
Warning that ships might be needed
on the East coast was had when the
VIadivostok cruisers broke through
Tsugaru straits. Indeed, there has
been time enough already for the Japa-
nese to assemble a considerable squad
ron where it is needed, counting in the
Yokohama guardships and torpedo
boats, inclusive, it is presumed. of the
former battleship Chen Yuen, now in
the coast-defenee class.
1t will be several days before the Ko-
rea gets within Russian range unless
Skrydloffs ships go to meet her. Mean
while the enormous energy of the Jap
anese naval office ought to accomplish
something.
The question of whether the Korea
is fair game will depend on her cargo.
If she is carrying contraband of war
to Japan-and this includes food as
1,,op - 6va5 or9roupitiop fOraoa aS
well as dynamite, medical stores as
well as submarines-she is in the posi-
ton of the British blockade runners
which the northern cruisers chased and
sometimes captured in the American
Civil War. Only the other day the
British steamer Attention, carrying
contraband cargo, was siezed by the
Russians, taken to Vladivostok and
condemned by a prize court. Great
Britain has not protested against this
any more than she did over the sinking
which went down flying the British
flag, impelled by a Japanese broadside.
What she has protested against is the
seizure of a neutral vessel on suspicion
and interference with the mails car
ried under British contract. 1t is alto
gether probable that if the Korea is
taken it will be done under due form
of International law. The same is true

Rice for the Coast.

HOUSTON, Tex, July S.--M. B. Ire
zevant, in charge of the literary bureau
of the Southern Pacific Railroads bust
ness here, says that there are at the
present time in this city two Japs worth
many hundreds of thousands of dol
lars, Oruku and Zetayama by name,
who are buying large amounts of rice
in the Louisiana and Texas fields and
shipping it tosthe Pacific coast. On ac-
count of the Russo-Japanese war and
the high tax on exported rice, caused
by the desire to keep the entire sup
ply in the East for the active armies
in the field, the amount of the staple
usually received from the Orient has
been greatly reduced. The result is that

tracts for an increased wage rate The
plantation which yielded to them on a
former occasion, will not do SO again.
There are 1900 strikers altogether. They
came to headquarters during the even
ing to ask why the police We're there
and to complain of the arnling of the
managers staff with pickaxe helves. .
ANOTHER STATEMENT.
! A gentleman who came down from
the plantation last night said:
cat three o'clock yesterday after
noon seven or eight hundred strikers
were assembled at their headquarters.
They notified the plantation officers
that they wished them to go to their
headquarters for conference. The
Japanese had presented the manager
with thirteen demands. chief of which
was one that all the contract cane
planters be permitted to throw up their
contracts and that the plantation pay
each man $16 a month for the time
that they had been at work on the
contracts. No reason was stated as TO
why this demand was made. Another
demand was that sixty discharged Jap
anese teamsters be reinstated. While
making a few concessions Manager All
rens refused the main demands.
When the party from the plantation
office, consisting of the manager, j. H.
Hackfeld, president of plantation, Con-
SUI Mkt Saito, A. K. Ozawa, Editor
Shiozawa and others arrived at the
strikers headquarters they were greet
ed by cries, in Japanese of "Go at
them.'' Let them have it, and re-
marks of a similar nature. The party
could not retreat though, as a with
drawal might have provoked an attack
by the strikers. Speeches were made.
The manager firmly refused to concede
their demands and the japanese of the
party explained to the strikers
that their demands were I'M
reasonable. Something that new
er before happened in Hawaii
occurred when Consul Saito spoke. He
told them their demands were unrea-
sonable and counselled them to give in.
They ridiculed him. Many insulting
shouts were INDUCED in by the strik
ers. Never before have japanese la
borers talked back to their Consul
here. Suddenly the crowd made a rush
for the veranda where the speakers
stood. At the critical moment dozen
laborers managed to stop the onslaught.
Then the speakers continued. They
feared to leave the place as depar-
ture might provoke the strikers to some
deed of violence. AT this juncture the
mounted police arrived and the speak
ers were rescued although it was use
less to try to dispense the big crowd Of
strikers.

ing Money.
Fall River, Mass, July 9.-The de-
preston in the cotton manufacturing
industry was considered at length at
meeting of Fall River treasurers,
representing 100000 spindles out OF
total of nearly 100000 and at the
conclusion of the discussion commit
tee was appointed to consider the best
method of meeting the situation.
AS recent attempts to act in unison
have not met with success it is thought
that an organization of manufac-
turers' association will be undertaken.
Several weeks ago plan to decrease
the cost of production by cutting wages
was defeated through the inability of
the treasuTers to agree.
The market is no better now than
1t was then and with print cloths sell
ing at 20ia cents per pound, while the
cost price amounts to nearly % cents,
mill owners have determined that
drastic action must be taken. Half
of the treasurers favor reouction of
wages, amounting to at least 10 per
cent, but some Of the leading interests
do not believe that a cut down is the
best policy.

MAY END RATE WAR.
Representatives of Shipping interests
i'm Conference.

London, July 9.-High hopes are en-
tertained by the officials of the board
of trade that, as a result of the con-
ference between representatives Of the
shipping lines which began Thursday,
an agreement will be reached to end
the rate war.
Just what proposals were made by
Gerald Balfour, president of the board
of trade, cannot be learned, but it is
known that he impressed upon the
heads Of the steamship companies the
Importance to International and pri-
vate interests that the ruinous compe-
tition be brought to a close.
The contentious of each company
have been brought out in the two
days discussion, but before final set
tlement is reached further considera-
tion will be given to the question of
emigrant and freight rates. 1t is said
that strong feeling exists on the part
of every member of the conference
that something must be done but even
with this groundwork 1t will take some
time to work out the details.
