e Aeeilns of the Japanese toward westarn

suit oA the recent war with Russia hut II still
'""dru western beliefs and civilization
IT.. Pioh was expressed by Secretary of War
WHO mas recently returned from an off,
ia. TOUR OF the Orient, in an interview which
VIII appear IN the next issue OF "The Church
man." OANi1 Li-
Inc Secretary says that, as result Of the
war just concluded, the immediate oooro,,,,o
OUTLOOK is one Of high prices lots of work and
apparent prosperity. He believes that the nres-
ehe era OF prosperity may be followed after
some years. by the same sort of depression tho
united States had after war In view of the
industrious inclinations Of the Japanese how
ever ne looks for them to meet their obligations
with comparative ease.
ASIDE from the fact that America will benefit
from continued peace in the Orient he cannot
see that this country will be affected IN any, ,,a1
py the new Anglo-Japanese treaty. Nor does he
rear that the japanese look toward the Phlin-
pines with any desire for acquisition He is
sure ne says, that all the Japanese desire IS
that America shall maintain or Obtain q s+rone
ana peacea6le government there.
speaking of the Chinese exclusion ovas+,or
the Secretary says that in his oninion a. 10
largely owing to this exclusion question tho +
the chinese are looking more to Japan than to
european nations or America for the higher a1u
cation In military instruction and other things
There is very decided resentment among
one educated chinese at the exclusion of their
own class says Secretary Taft, but was led
10 think that, except in Canton possibly and in
annoy, whence the laboring coolies mostly come
they did not particularly object to the exclusion
OF the Coolie class.
My impression is that the wisest course for
TINS government to take is, by amendments to
the existing treaties, to ameliorate the condi-
tions under which the classes of Chinese ad-
united to this country are to be admitted If
the certificates of American consuls to our
examining officers at our ports are made con-
ciuslve. a long step will have been made toward
the satisfaction of the Chinese"

CAR MAY YIELD, MORE.
Report That People VIII Gain Part
of Their Demands.

ST. Petersburg, Oct. 24-The announcement
made in these dispatches yesterday that Count
Witte would shortly assume active direction of
the government as Premier and head of re-
sponsible cabinet now seems to be fully con-
f1rmed. 1t be stated positively that the En-
peror has rendered the position of Premier of
the cabinet about to be formed to the count
who. however guarded his acceptance with GER
tain conditions which were placed before his
majesty IN the form OF a written memorandum.
Count Witte is said to have informed the En-
peror, IN his usual fearless manner, that he
could accept the position only on the condition
that he would be real Premier with a working
cabinet, and not the fgurehead of an irrespon-
sible body.
According to a persistent report, the EN-
peror appointed Count Witte as Premier, after
accepting his stipulations This report is prem
AZURE but it can be said that his majesty has
confded to the count the task OF drawing up
according to his ideas the project for respon-
sible ministerial cabinet. It can also be SAID
that following the advice of Count "ltCe' the
towers OF t!e new douma Will be extended along
western lines and the franchises broaoeneu
THESE reforms will be accompanied by practlcal
freedom of the press and Of assembly III oraeI
to meet at least partially, the popular
Count Witte insisted that only In TINS way
could the country be quoted, and the Emperor
apparently needed the warning.
Radical changes such as these IN tne o3 1ina
project and the extension Of the franchlseS
would probably involve the postponement or the
meeting of the National Assembly until the
spring but the disappointment VIII De nlore
+beD offset nv the enlargement Of the powers OF
the dourna and the broadening of the suffrage
1t is understood that this revised doGma b P@n
will he promulgated Immediately IN the nope
oP s+onninR agitation by the Social Democrats
under whose Leadership the railroad and other
strikes are being organized and carried on as
a political protest mainly against Ihe u0P4l'~
tion Of workmen of the right to vote.
Pending the elaboration Of broader law
granting freedom of meeting, new statute CIV
mo a restricted right of assembly under ponce
s,,nervision, has been signed and will be pub
lished this week.
