istence of Anti-Forelen Sentiment
BY Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 16.-An official
report concerning the recent anti
treaty riots in Toxic was today received
by the Japanese legation. On the basis
of this report Mr.. Hioki. charge daft
faires of Japan, said today
my advices from Toxic do not at
tempt to minimize the condition of af-
fairs as they exist
1.-The immediate provocation of the
r1otous outbreak was the action of the
police, who sought to prevent a politi-
cal mass meeting. Not the slightest
feeling of hostility toward foreigners
in general or Americans in particular
entered into the spirit of the mob.
"Of course, there are many Japanese
who are disappointed at the terms of
the peace treaty, and it is natural that
they should express their disappoint-
ment, but the majority of the thinking
class of my country deprecate riotous
action and regret the injurious impress
sion created by these disturbances.
"I am authorized to say that, what
ever differences" of opinion may exist
in Japan over the terms of peace, there
is a strong, united and friendly feel
ing toward the United States and deep
appreciation of the earnest. impartial
and sincere good will which has attend
ed the efforts of President Roosevelt"

KARLSTAD, Sept. 16.-The first Off
cial announcement indicating that the
delegates of Norway and Sweden were
approaching any understanding In their
effort to establish a modus vivendi for
the countries as separate governments
was given out tonight at the close Of
the joint session of the delegates. The
announcement reads:
THE probabilities are that in the
near future negotiations can be brought
to definite result"
This somewhat cryptic announcement
is accepted as indicating that the nego-
tiations have reached a stage when an
agreement is in sight and that a re-
sort to arms, which might have in
volved either power, may safely be
considered to be out of the question.
