DOES JAPAN
 WANT WAR Germany Believes She Will Eventually Take the Philli-
 pine Islands RUSSIA MAY HOPE So Attitude Assumed Against Japan's Request For Trade Indicates Her
 Desire.
RUSSIA MAY HOPE So

Berlin, Dec 15.-The relations be- tween the United States and Japan excite extraordinary interest both i'll government and diplomatic circles here. Emperor William discussed the question with several persons re- gently and is thoroughly informed re- garding President Roosevelt's per- sonal views on the subject. It is be- neved that Russia's more resolute at titude against Japan's requests for trade and colonization rights on the Amur river and in Siberia and 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 pressure on the part of Japan in the latter's efforts to ob- tain these far reaching rights and has been impressed as much by this as by Japan's firmness. The result Is that the idea has been created at the Russian foreign office that Japan might make her ambitions the occa- sion for a renewal of the war with Japan. This idea pervaded the con- versations which the Russian foreign minister, M. Iswolsky, had with the government officials and others whom he met here on the occasion of his visit to Berlin six weeks ago. M. Isowolsky met many prominent peo- pie here and talked with extraordi- nary freedom.
 Among German military and naval officers the possibility of conflict between the United States and Japan has been quite freely discussed. and the professional views appear to agree that Japan would take the Phil ippine Islands and place upon the United States the necessity of con ducting across the Pacific prolonged sea and land campaigns which would call forth immense exertions against great natural obstacles. It was known here in June that the British admiralty had considered theoretical ly 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 reported to have expressed the belief that the contest would occur within five years. In any case it is certain that several European foreign ofii- cers are at present making inquiries the temper of the Japanese people and the government Of Japan.

TESTIMONY OF JOHN D.
ROCKEFELLER ADMITTED.

Findlay, O., Oct. 10.-After a sharp
legal argument, the testimony given
by John D. Rockefeller in 1899 before
the supreme court of the state, was
admitted as evidence in the trial
here of the Standard Oil Company of
Ohio, charged with conspiracy ag-
ainst trade. In admitting this evil
dence, which illuminated the meth
DDS of the Standard Company at that
time, Judge Barker said that it was
simply to enlighten the jury as to
conditions prior to the period cover
ed in the present suit. and to prove
any act during the past three years
covered by the suit.

we mean that we can sell for

These examples of production and

For the creation of these products
and the enjoyment of such privileges.
a small farm is only wanted, and q
moderate amount of pasture lands
The springs are numerous and ever
flowing wells may be had ove a large
district of country. They furnish a
constant n cheap water supply and
are extremely desirable. Besides, the
water is at all times within h con-
troll of the owner. Choice lands, with
water supply can be bought for $40
ments and distance from railway.
Lands in the artesian belt, without
water yet developed, can be a at
$40 to $50 per acre according to
same conditions.
The water supply from artesian
wells is being rapidly developed, and
is an interesting and valuable feature
of this country. The area in which
they can be had is very large and the
supply apparently inexhaustible- The
depth and flow varies from 20 to 900
feet. and from 400 to 1000 gallons per
minute. The cost approximates $50
to $500 per foot in depth. The deep
er wells generally furnish h greater
supply.
The water is uniformly pure and
wholesome. The Pecos River is Pc
culiarly well adapted to irrigation pur
poses n furnishes a liberal supply
at all seasons The fact of its source
being in the mountains, and being
fed by innumerable springs along its
course, renders it independent of
rains. The Pecos Valley country at
fords great attractions to immigrants
and will soon be occupied by a pros
porous, healthy, happy, and teemfng
population. w. Y.
