The second half of the BILL which proposes to

Y. M. G. A. With Japanese Army.

The Y. M. O. A. branch in Japan is
embarrassed with the confidence given
it by the Japanese Government. The
Emperor gave the Association full per-
mission to 60 to the troops with it's
tents and ministrations and $4,000, and
the Buddhist priests are now debarred
from the army. The generals have
telegraphed for more tents and secre-
taries. There are men ready to go,
but the organization needs $40, 900 i'm
mediately to send and equip them
The Government furnishes transporta-
tion.
The Y. M. O. A. is the organization
for the Christian churches in Japan as
in America. An Episcopal church has
sent its rector with the Association to
the front in Manchuria. In eighteen
days one of the secretaries gave per-
sonal help and cheer to 81, ZOO soldiers,
most Of whom were wounded men.
Tie 700. 900 soldiers will be in camps
for the year at least, whether peace is
declared or not. The Japanese SOL

FRANCE HAS VISIONS
OF BIG WAR

PARIS, June 7.-Iu an interview to
day with the correspondent high off,
cial made important revelations which
show that the present crisis in inter-
national politics is really more dang
erous to the peace of the world than
ha, appeared.
The statement shows that in official
circles it is felt that France faces q
crisis which threatens to plunge her
into war, aud which may involve the
greater portion of Europe as we'll as
the United States.
The Moroccan question, which has
brought affairs to a head. so to SPEAK,
is really unimportant In comparison
with the other issues involved. In
this statement the offioial said:
The trouble is not in the Moroccan
question but it lies in more remote
and more serious cause.
"This is the ambition of the Kaiser
to draw the continental powers togeth
er under the influence of Germany in
view of an eventual conflict with Eng
land and the United States, which the
Kaiser considers inevitable.
frances participation in this move
is necessary to this scheme
To-day we find ourselves facing the
alternative of choosing between Eng
land and Germany. The extreme
gravity of the situation IS shown by
the fact that the German army is with
in 100 kilometers of Paris. Even If
England Joined in the conflict she
would be unable tu hold France to
check the advance aud once the first
blow was struck we would be at dis
advantage. We know. too. from the
experience of 1870, how little hope we
can place in the other powers"
While it is stated optimistioally that
the resignation OF M. DelGasse as for.
eign minister has relieved the strain
the innermost governmental circles
are far from reassured Fears are even
entertained that new complications
may arise to make the situation worse.
