Associated Press Cable to The Evening

st. Petersburg. Aug. 22.-At the for
eign Office today it was admitted that
the Japanese had made the installa-
ton Of a Chinese customs house at
Port Dalny conditional upon the SINH
lar Inauguration Of Chinese tariff on
the ManclMria frontier. The follow
ing explanation is given: THE Chin
ese insisted that the Port Dalny Gus
toms house be surrendered into their
hands. The Japanese replied that they
could not agree to this so long as Rus
sian goods were permitted to enter
northern Manchuria free. whereupon
China brought the matter to the atten-
ton of Russia. The question is now
the subject of negotiations between
the Russian minister at Pekin and the
Chinese foreign office.

MRS. PEARYs ARCTIC PLANS.

The wife of Commander Peary takes it for

North next year having improved the few
months at his disposal to repair his ship and
secure fresh supplies Of food and other requi-
sites. She also announces her intention of ac-
companying the explorer If he goes again This

she has visited the Arctic regions before. It

FIFTH AVENUE.

There is no reason why the Counsel to the
| Corporation, with a judicial opinion to sustain
his contention, should not now seek to carry
out his purpose OF compelling property owners
IN Fifth avenue to remove those parts of their
buildings which he thinks illegally encroach on
public property. We are glad to observe that
Mr.. Ellison disclaims any intention Of proceed
ing harshly and abruptly. for that shows q
proper disposition on his part: but practically
we suppose that 1t makes little difference for
IT is certain that IN any case those who are
financially concerned would take care to de-
fend what they have understood to be their
rights. It is desirable. since the question has
been raised. TO have II decisively settled SO
that private individuals and the community at
large may know in what manner It is permis-
sble TO build IN Fifth avenue and what Is the
legal status OF buildings now in existence there
AS usual. there is more than one side to the
case Probably no one will deny that for many
years owners OF Fifth avenue lots were not
merely authorized. but encouraged, to commit
what is now called a trespass. We believe IT
10 be fact also that the prevailing method of
building was long advantageous rather than
detrimental TO the city, for the reason that it
impaired variety and embeIlishment 10 that
great thoroughfare while as yet the traffic there
was not heavy enough TO be troublesome There
is as little doubt think. that If propertv
owners were now subjected 10 the trial-which
they call a hardship-Or bringing their struct
ures wholly within the building line Fifth ave-

tiveness. To go a little further, 1t is doubtful
If the assumed practical advantage of reliev
ing the congestion Of traffic would be SO far
accomplished as TO Offset the sacrifice The

direct trade with Japan, great as that Is and
may be- but in addition the Japanese trade Of
the rest of this nation, which must naturally In
great measure pass through them. to their profit,
and also their and all Americas trade with
much of China and other Asian lands, which
must largely find entrance TO that continent by
way of Japan. We can find no words too strong
for expression OF the folly there would be in
blighting all these vast interests, and IN making
n foe instead of a friend Of that powerful en-
pire within whose grasp the destinies or the
Pacific and its shores are so largely held.
It should be evident that the arguments
against the free admission of Chinese coolies to
this country are quite inapplcable to the case OF
tisans and laborers who come hither While the
danger of wholesale invasion from an overcrowd-
ed nation of four hundred millions, which stands
ready and eager to discharge its surplus popula-
ton upon any convenient land by millions, and
perhaps tens Of millions cannot be ignored, there
could and can be no such danger from nation Of
less than one-tenth that size which already has
close at hand and under its own control unex-
plotted territories OF vast extent and resources.
amply sufficient to absorb and to engage the ac-
hvites of all its surplus population for genera
tions to come. America has in brief, nothing to
lose and nothing TO fear from the maintenance of
al open and hospitable door toward Japan, and 1t
has much TO gain and much to hope from such
course, in the most practical and utilitarian
way, besides those other not insignificant con-
sideratlons of consistency. gratitude, equity and
national honor.

A LONDON INSTANCE.

One day last month dense black smoke was
seen issuing from one Of the chimneys of one of
the largest and best known hotels in London.
Immediately the City Council procured sum-
mons for the company owning the hotel, and
brought its representative into court. Testi-
mony concerning the offence was given with con-
vincing directness, and the defendant did not
venture TO dispute 1t, but pleaded that usually
the hotel furnaces consumed their own smoke,
and emitted some on this occasion, for a short
time, only because the chief engineer had been
called away and his substitute did not know
how to manage them properly. The court held
that the penalty of any harm occurring through
the engineers absence must be paid by the COM
pany which employed him. and not by the gen
eral public, and accordingly imposed upon the
hotel fine of S25. which was at once paid, and
the episode was ended
If similar offence were to be committed by
a similar concern in New York. what would
happen? The nuisance would be unchecked
until some citizens formed a society for its
abatement That society would bring the mat
ter to the attention of the authorities and agi-
tate 1t until the authorities would not dare TO
ignore 1t any Longer. Then a summons would
be issued, or a warrant for arrest and it would
be served upon three or four persons successive
ly before the ri"ht one was found. Several
postponements Of the case would be secured. and
Wnen III IdSC II came 10 Ine QeIenQdnL WOuIQ
plead: That his chimney did not emit smoke {;
that 1t was not black smoke but only dark
gray; that the engineer did not know the Chin
ney was smoking; that they were going to be-
gin experimenting with a smoke consumer next
year; that the smoke good for the neigh
borhood that a man who lived 50 far away that
the smoke could noe reach him said he was not
annoyed by It; that the anti-smoke law was un-
constitutional; and that anyway the smoke had
issued from the chimney for only little while
There would be further postponements to give
the court time to consider the questions In
volved At length a fine of 81 would be i'm
posed, against which there would be an appeal.
on the ground that the amount was excessive
and oppressive and the case would be carried
from court to court Finally, Judgment would
be entered and execution ordered against the
hotel, when it would be found the building had
been torn down some years before on account of
old age!
There really do seem to be some things which
are done in London, Paris, Berlin, and, for all
we know, Ttmbuctoo and Wayback Four Corners,
better than in New York.

JAPAN AND CALIFORNIA.

Whatever may be the immediate outcome of
the controversy over the civil status OF japanese
residents in Californis-and we are unwilling 10
expect that II will not accord with justice ma
uonal integrity and international comity-it may
unhestatingly be said in advance that any gen.
eral anti-Japanese discrimination, such as for
many years has been practised and seems likely
10 be indefinitely maintained against the Chinese,
would be a blunder detrimental to the repute
and embarrassing TO the foreign relations Of the
whole country, and little short of disastrous 10
the material interests OF California itself and of
she other commonwealths on our Pacific Coast.
In saying this there is no reference TO the pos
