TREATY PREGNANT WITH ELE.
MENTs OF HUMILIATION AND
FUTURE DANGER.
CAUSES GREAT INDIGNATION
CLAUSE IN WHICH JAPAN
AGREES NOT TO FoRTIFY
soYA STRAIT.

Toxic, Sept. 24.-The number OF d.
rect memorials to the throne from diff
ferent associations and individuals
condemning the peace treaty and ask
ing that it be not ratified exceeds
forty, among which is an address
signed by six professors of the i'm
perial university, one of whom recent
ly was placed on the retired list ow-
ing to his strongly worded a~nti-peace
thesis.
This memorial strongly weighs the
necessity of refusing to ratify the
peace treaty and condemns it as en-
tirely annulling the purpose of the war
as set forth in the declaration of hos.
tilities. 1t is also stated that indis-
putable reasons exist for
Refusing to Ratify
the treaty, which is deemed to be
pregnant with elements of humiliation
and future danger to the national in
terests. In conclusion the signers of
this address say they humbly beg the
throne to condescend to consider the
spirit in which the address is pre-
scented.
In spite Of the persistent editorials
in the leading newspapers demanding
the resignation of the cabinet, it is
believed that the ministers will 0
tinue to hold Office until after the
adoption of the post-bellum measures,
especially those regarding finance and
the Chinese and Korean problems.
Causes Intense Indignation.
1t transpires that, in spite of Pre-
mier Katsura's assurance to the con
trary to the editors, there exists a
clause in the peace treaty by which
Japan undertakes not to fortify Soya
strait. AS a result, intense indigna-
ton is felt among the influential class,
as this Is deemed to be the greatest
humiliation Japan has ever suffered.
The restriction thus placed on her ter
ritorial liberty and as constituting the
blacklist record in the history of a
country which has never experienced
defeat at the hands of other nations.
Not a few papers tomorrow are ex-
pected to print strongly worded edi-
torials on this subject.
The constitutionalists are gradually

To Raise Ban on Papers.

four other evening newspapers. The

Sakuma, commander-in-chief of the
Toxic garrison, who is in charge of the
enforcement of martial law, and other
authorities, and it is expected that the
unfortunate newspapers soon will be
allowed to resume publication
