.FORESEE WAR WITH JAPAN
Powers Regard War Over Philippines
as Matter of Few Years-Troops
Being Rushed to Hawaii

Berlin-The relations between the
United States and Japan excite ex-
traordinary interest both in govern
ment and diplomatic circles here. En-
peror William discussed the question
with several persons recently, and is
thoroughly informed regarding Presi-
dent Roosevelt's personal views on the
subject 1t is believed that Russia's
more resolute attitude against Japan's
requests for trade and colonization
rights on the Amur river and in ST.
beria for fishery privileges on the
adjacent Russian coasts is partly due
to the discussion of the California
school question between the United
States and Japan.
The Russian foreign Office has been
subjected to steady diplomatic pres
sure on the part of Japan in the effort
to obtain these far-reaching rights.
The result is that the idea has been
created at the Russian foreign Office
that Japan might make her ambitions
the occasion for a renewal of the war
with Russia.
This idea pervaded the converse
tions which the Russian foreign min
lister, M. Iswolsky, had with the gov
ernment officials and others whom he
met here on the occasion of his visit
to Berlin six weeks ago. M. Iswolsky
met many prominent people here and
talked with extraordinary freedom.
Among German military and naval
officers the possibility of conflict be-
tween the United States and Japan has
been quite freely discussed, and the
professional views appear to agree
that Japan would take the Philippine
islands and place upon the United
States the necessity of conducting
across the Pacific prolonged sea and
land campaigns, which would call forth
immense expeditions against great nat
ural obstacles r.
1t was known here in June that the
British admiralty had considered the
retically the possibility of war between
Japan and the United States as likely
to occur within twenty-five years, and
some Of the British naval men are re-
ported to have expressed the belief
that the contest would occur within
five years., In any case, it is certain
that several European foreign Offices
are at present making inquiries re-
garding the temper of the Japanese
people and the government of japan.

tions here. / am ready to move when

The Examiner publishes the follow
ing dispatch from Honolulu today:
The officers of the transport
Thomas have announced that two regi-
ments are to be rushed immediately
to the island in anticipation of
trouble with the Japanese. They alb
solutely refuse to give out any of the
details bearing on the call for troops
or the reason why the government
feels that the soldiers of the United
States army are necessary in the ISL
ands, which are at this time oyerrun
by the little brown men.
1T is understood that the mikado
was extremely anxious to secure pos
session of the island of Lanai, which is
private property This island is fifty
miles from Honolulu and could be
used as an excellent naval base
against the United States by any for
eign power. 1t has two splendid har-
bors of sufficient depth to accommo-
date large feet of war vessels.
Last night Attorney George D.
Gear secured an injunction against
Governor Carter and Land Commits
sioner Pratt to prevent their selling
the island to syndicate. 1t is un-
derstood that the syndicate represents
| the Japanese government or people
who ultimately expect to dispose of
the island to Japan.
Officials Deny Report
WaShington-It is stated at the war
department that no order has been
issued for the dispatch of additional
troops to the Hawaiian islands, nor
is any such order contemplated. The
permanent garrison in Hawaii consists
OF four companies of regular troops
Two of these were last summer or
dered to the mainland for target prac-
tice, the facilities for which were lack
ing in the islands. They have now
returned to their posts and no immed-
late changes in the force or additions
thereto are contemplated.
No further action will be taken by
the department of justice in the test
case at San Francisco, brought for
the purpose of having the court decide
on the legality of the California law
preventing japanese from attending
public schools with American children.
The question will be handled by Mr.
Bonaparte, who is expected to take
up his duties as attorney general on

by way OF reply, Then he answered his
own question by adding: They're to
show the trainmen where the baggage
Is bound for, amt they? And when
man goes from one city to another, tho
baggagemen paste the proper label over
the one that was there before. Other
wise, nobody could tell which city the
trunk was bound for. II tralnman

ITS safe betting that the man who
owns this trunk Is one of those ego.
tistical asses who wants to show Off.
Perhaps he has made trip abroad
and while there he begged, borrowed or
stole a lot of labels and pasted them
on his trunk to make people believe he

Of this lay in the fact that the Leanders were
practically rowing with seven men. ~ Black

was quite useless. However, considering
the condition Of the water. Cambridge's time
for the mile and three-Guarters was not bad.
