Washington, Aug. 27.-Japan has
addressed a note to the powers in
forming them that unless Russia
forthwith disarms her warships in
Shanghai, Japan will be forced to take
whatever steps she deems necessary
to protect here interests. Mr.. Taxa
hira, the Japanese Minister, called at
the State Department today and left
with Mr. Adee, the acting Secretary of
State, the communication of the Toxic
government
To a correspondent OF the Associat-
ed Press, Mr.. Takohira said tonight:
While Japan sincerely hopes that
the reported intention Of Russia to
disarm the Askold and Grozovoi at
Shanghai will promptly be executed,
my government has felt that it was
advisable to inform the powers what
must necessarily be its attitude in the
event that the disarmament of the
Russian ships is delayed. The condi-
tons at Shanghai are peculiar bevause
of the many international interests
there and my government is DESTROYS
of giving these interests every consid-
eration.''
'WiH it be necessary to send a jap
anese squadron into Shanghai and
take away the Russian ships, as was
done with Ryeshitelni at Chefoo?" the
minister was asked.
my government has not indicated
in it's note to the powers the min
lister replied, "just what steps will be
necessary if the Russian ships are not
Immediately disarmed ut it should
be remembered that the Ryeshitelni
was not completely disarmed when
seized by the Japanese and under the
circumstances her presence in Chefoo
was exceedingly disadvantageous to
Japan for military reasons"
1t is understood that similar note
to that presented by Mr.. Takahira to-
day was also delivered at the various
foreign offices by Japanese diplomatic
representatives.

The battle of August 25 ragged along
the eastern front. A strong Japanese
force attacked the Russian positions
at Mao Pass, eleven miles east of An
shanshan and at Sandiatsi and Tse-
gov, twelve miles southeast of An
shanshan. Nine batteries of six guns
each bombarded the Russian outpoSts.
A this point the combat repeatedly de-
veloped into hand-to-hand fighting.
The Russians stubornly held the out
posts the whole day, falling back on
their main position at night. The
chief artillery engagement was in
front of Liandiansian, the Japanese
concentrating the fire of ten batteries
ana simultaneously advancing on
AoriHtspu four miles southwest Of
Landiansian, but they were arrested
by Cossacks, who were afterwards re-
lntorced by infantry and artillery
The Japanese resumed the bonn
bardment early August 26, devoting

shan. The Russian field guns were
very effective. They dismantled 80

To lease the Atlantic and North Car
the question that will command the
attention of North Carolina this week.
The stockholders have been called
to meet at New Bern on Thursday,
September 1st, to consider the ques-
ton.
What do the people living along the
line of the road, from Goldsboro TO
Morehead, wish done with the road?
That question is of the first impor-
lance They furnished most of the
money to build it and they have the
greatest interest in it. Any action that
would not promote the interests of
the counties and towns through which
the road runs would be a blunder
equal to a crime.
What say the people of that sec
ton? This paper has printed during
the past week editorials from the
leading papers published on the line
of the road. In order to a-certa1n
more fully the sentiment of the peoc
pie, The News and Observer sent two
capable men to interview leading and
representative citizens. For this inn
portant work the paper was fortunate
enough to secure the services of tvs
disinterested and capable newspaper
men-Mr Edward l.. Conn, formerly
city editor of the Raleigh Times, and
Mr.. Norman H. Johnson. editor of The
Merchants Journal. 1t was desired to
do nothing but ascertain just what tho
people of that section think, and to
do this without bias it was deemed
wisest to have the work done by
gentlemen not now connected with
anv paper. and not we'll acquainted in
that section, who had not taken any
position with reference to the lease.
The gentlemen chosen had only two
DAYS to interview the people in Colds
boro. LAGRANGE, Kinston, New Bern,
Morehead and Beaufort-the SIX lead
ing points chiefly dependent upon the
road. OF course in that limited time
they could not see everybody, but they
saw representative men in every COM
munity and their views may be as
suned to reflect the sentiment OF the
community in which they reside
Here are the questions propounded
nv Mr.. Johnson and Mr.. Conn to eacn
person interviewed:
1. Do you favor lease next week OF
the A. & n. G. r. r.?
(a) If so, why?
OBJ If not why?
3. DO you favor the governors leas-
ine now or reporting the matter to

3. Do you prefer for the State to
