Franco-Japanese Quarrel Arouses
Deep Anxiety in London and Paris.

LONDON, May 9.-The editorial arti-
cles in this mornings newspapers re-
fleet a lively anxiety as to the outcome
to the delicate situation involved in the
dispute between Japan and France on
the neutrality question. Every allow
ance is made for the difficulty France
has to face and it is fully believed the
French Government is doing it's ut
most to observe neutrality, according
to her Interpretation. Whether the
French colonial authorities are equal
ly anxious to obey instructions from
Paris is greatly questioned. The be-
lief here is that they have a strong
prediction in favor of Russia and act
accordingly.
The London newspapers do not con-
ceal their opinion that the facilities
Rojestvenstky has obtained in French
waters constitute serious menace to
Japan's ability to retain command of
the sea, and, although it is not appre-
hended that Japan will force the sit
uation. in a manner calculated to draw
other powers into the struggle, since
such developments would suit Russia S
plans, strong appeals will be made to
the French Government to avoid the
possibility of such complications.
No further news has been received
throwing light on the positions of
the fleets, but, according to the
Mails Hongkong correspondent, Sc
cret conference of British naval COM
manders was held there yesterday
lMonday).
PARIS, May S.-The critical tone Of
the British press concerning Frances
alleged breaches of neutrality in Indo-
China brought out an emphatic gen.
eral statement to-day from the For
eign Office that the accusations are un-
founded. An official said:
II is universally known that the Japanese
intelligence department is exceptionally eff
OF neutrality really existed, the Japanese Gov
ernment would have been at once aware of
to the French Government. So far. however,
Japan's official action has been confined to re-
questing France to exercise strict neutrality.
she has not made any specific charges nor have
been brought to our attention. The Japanese
Government asked in an amicable spirit that
we preserve neutrality, and we answered that
we had done and are doing everything possible
to that end The reports 10 the contrary we
believe TO be misrepresentation.
DIR. Motono, the japanese Minister
to France, went to the Foreign Office
yesterday evening, where he had an ex-
tended interview with Foreign Minister
Delcasse The nature of their conver-
sation was not disclosed, but it is un-
derstood tbat Dr. Motono referred tc

Detective Wren Has Interview With
Defaulting Tax Collector.
ST. LOUIS, May S.-Detective Ser
geant Wren of San Francisco. who
is to take Edward J. Smith, the de-
faulting Tax Collector. back to San
Francisco, arrived here to-day and had
a long talk with the prisoner. The
pair will probably start for San Fran
cisco on Wednesday.
Detective Wren intended to start
to-day, but has to wait until the requi-
sition papers are signed by the Gov
ernor These are now in the hands of
Governor Folk at jefferson City. He
will sign them to-day and forward
them to st. Louis.
Wren had long interview with the
defaulter, but Smith is much more
composed and cooler than he was at
the time of his arrest The San Fran
cisco detective was with him nearly
two hours, but announced that he
could draw nothing new out of the
prisoner.
Smith seemed rather pleased when
told that the detective had arrived
Il want to go back to face the music, .
he repeated. Il don't care what hap
pens I've got to pay the price and |
want to face the worst as soon as pos
sible."'
After interviewing Smith, Detective
Wren held a conference with Super

NO LIMIT ON WAR ZONE.
Japan Declines to Bind Herself to
Eliminate Mongolia.


ST. PETERSBURG May .s.-Japan
has refused to agree to definition of
the limits of the war zone In Mongo-
liza. west of the, present positions of
the armies, Until after the Russian
defeat at Mukden. and when the oper-
ations were confined to Manchuria, the
neutral zone was well established, al
though claims of violation were pre-
ferred by both belligerents. North of
Tie Pass in Mongolia eastward, the
zone has never been fixed.
In view of the fact that the japanese
used Sinmintin to- effect their turning
movement against Mukden, General
Linevitch called upon the authorities
at st. Petersburg TO secure definition
of the line northward, and Russia
made proposals that the Government at
Peking delimit the zone. but answers
from China were evasive. Japan de-
clining to bind herself.
For the present. therefore, General
Linevitch Is free to take such meas
ures as he deems proper to protect him
self from a hostile movement in the
direction of Mongolia.

the news from the front indicating that
Field Marshal Oyama- is pressing GEN
eral Linevitch's advance posts east and
west of the railroad with considerab bic
force, as ii about to undertake a gen.
erai offensive movement. The Russians
are Offering slight resistance and are
falling back upon their first line of de-

to Kamal Pass, about seventy miles
due east of Tie Pass. The Russian cav
airy protects both wings, small bodies
being probably beyond the Lao River
in Mongolia, TO guard against a sur
prise turning movement in that direc-
ton.
Experts, however, believe that
Oyama's purpose is to thrust in from
the east, turn Kirin and interpose
himself between Hardin anl Vladivos-
tok, preparatory to the investment Of
tie latter place. Linevitchs DISPOSE
tions seem especially taken to meet
such q plan. He would not give battle

Japanese advance will be really seri-

Panamaian Minister to the United
States, upon the solution of the Pana-
ma canal problem by the new method
of combining a lock canal for the
immediate demands of commerce and
a sea level waterway for the ultimate

says lock canal will be sufficient to
meet present requirements, whereas
a sea-level waterway will be necessary
only when the traffic is three times
that of Suez, thirty years hence. A
