WAR between
U. S. and JAPAN
Europeans Predict Conflict
Two Nations Cannot
Be Avoided

Paris, Dec. GA country uneasy
about its future. 1t is SAID. must go
abroad to h ear Its reputation. Here
is what is said in Europe and especial
ly in Paris, of the incidents that
threaten to cause a serious coofiict
between The United States and Japan.
1t is said the aspirations Of Japan
would expand to as far as shedding
the last drop Of Japanese blood.
1t is said that il President Roose-
Welt few "ears ago had announced
in d resounding speech that, thanks
to the opening Of the PANAMA canal,
the Pacific woul1 become an Ameri-
can lake, the mikado woul l have
disputed 1t IS Japanese lake.
1t is said, the peaceful occupation
Ct California has begl n. that in tae
last TWO years 15,477 Japanese nave
settled in san Francisco and by their
insupportable competitions snatcned
the means of existence from the small
American shopkeepers.
1t is said, that though President
Roosevelt's government may be very
cautious and polite in the extreme to
the mikado, it Is not possible for 1t
to prevent the massacre OF the Japs
by the exasperated and famisheG Cali
fornians after the exclusion bill has
been rejected at the opening of con-
gress.
Briefly, thu general opinion in po-
litical circles On this side of the At
lantic is that a conflict between the
whites of the states and the yellow
skins of the Pacific Is inevitable. In
ot:ler words, there is a prospect OF
war between two powerful nations
one of which possesses formidable
army on land and the other, one
which Is not worth mentioning.

CHANCE ROOMS
CAUSES STRIKE
Mining Man Says doldfield
Trouble Due to An
AbnOxiOuS Rule

Salt Lake, Dec. ga prominent
broker from Goldfield and Tonopah,
stated this morning tina. the real cause
for the strike at Goldneld was not for
higher wages, but OH account of the
determination of the mine owners to
institute, on the first of the year.
when all the big leases expire,
change room. The gentleman, who
does not care to have mis- name pub
lisned in this connection, said:
1T is conservatively estimated that
individual miners have carried away
from the mines from $40 to $3.50 per
day in gold which they sold to the
various assay offices. There are proba-
bly, SO assay shops III Goldfield be-
sides those operated Dy the company.
They buy stolen gold from the miners
and conviction for tkece crimes is
pln, ideally Impossible because the
judge was elected by an organization
which protects the miners.
THE leases expire on the first of
the year and it Is safe to say that
none of the big ones will be renewed.
When the owners take hold of the
property they propose to INSTITUTE
change rooms The rooms consist
of a locker and shower bath. When
the miners come to work they will
| clothes for their working toys and
when they quit shift they will leave
| their working clothes, go to the SHOW
er bath and put on their street clothes
This will prevent the wholesale steal
| ing, and it is because of this that
| the strike has been declared. OF
course the miners will not admit this
| and declare they are ..riking for more
| nay. but the owners VIII insist on the
new feature and If the opposition
does not agree to it, then the mines
will certainly be shut down. But
do not think the strike will amount t.
anything. 1t Is generally believed
at Goldfeld that the trouble will no.
last Is days.
| "A peculiar feature If the situation
Is that practically all the minen
are very poor, despite the fact tina
they steal enough to become wealthy
| in a short time. This is accounted
for in the fact that they gamble"
The visiting broker said there is nj
trouble at Tonopah and for the reason
i that the operators and miners ar
i bound by an agreement for thre
| years. They agreed on a certain
scale of wages, and the time TO
working, and it was further agree,
that the miners would not strike un
less the companies violated the term
of agreement.

.BlAMES FORAKER
FOR Gun PLAY

Washington, Dec. 26--Presdent
Roosevelt yesterday made to callers the
unqualified statement that in his
opinion the shooting of Capt. Edgar
Is. Macklin, Twenty-fifth infantry, at
Fort Reno, Okla, Friday night. was
very likely in part inspired by the
speech which senator Foraker of
Ohio made on the senate floor Thurs
day in support of the discharge of
the Twenty-fifth regiment and in crit
;cism of the presidents policy in dis
missing them.
IF the gentlemen on Capitol hill
want Investigation, I'll give them all
they care for" the president is said
to have declared between clenched
teeth.
Capt. Macklin was at Fort Reno
awaiting trial by court martial for
alleged failure to take due measures
| to prevent the rioting at Fort Brown.
He was shot twice by negro who
gained entrance to his home.
The president has declared the firm
conviction that such speeches as that
| of senator Foraker do the most to in
| cite such outrages and crimes. The
essailant was one Of the discharged
men of the Twenty-fifth infantry, and
the president takes the ground that
nothing would be more calculated to
egg on men to such deeds than the
speech of Senator Foraker.
Political and army circles were or
the uui vive Of excitement tonight
when it was learned that the presi-
dent directly attacked Foraker II
such connection. The senator was
seen, but declined absolutely to dis
cuss the matter. He does not We
know what the president had said
and moreover had no desire to en-
gage in such a discussion. e.woult
say whatever he might ultimately
deem necessary from the floor Of thu
senate.
Foraker's speech Thursday was
vicious arraignment of the president
course throughout the entire affai
of the Brownsville troops.
He weighed, studied and analyze'
1.-The evidence on which the presiden
hased his conclusion that the men o
the discharged companies were guilt
OF insubordination in refusing to re
veal who of their number were guilt
of the rioting and held that the pres
ident had utterly miscOnceived tn
evidence and his own constitutions
powers in the premises"
H.. He declared that a great crime ha
heen committed against Justice an
fair play The speech greatly In
censed President Roosevelt. The var
night following the day Of its deliver
Captain Macklin was shot In hi
quarters at Fort Reno and the as
sallant, a masked negro, escaped
The presidents charge that the For
aker speech was incendiary and yer
likely inspired the shooting will ne
, fail to add to the bitterness wit
which the discussion will be resume
: in the senate after the holiday
: There is. indeed. said to be seriou
possibility that the Foraker resolu
ton for a senate investigation ma

Fought the Whole Glass.

Many a year ago "plebe" at the
naval academy astonished an upper
class man by going to him and an
nouncing, ':.See here, 1 don't like the
way my class is being treated" The
upper class man was nearly surprised
out of his wits, but, recovering from
his stupor (and only one who knows
the full meaning of crate" tmong
the midshipmen can have a correct
appreciation Of what that announce
ment from a "plebe" to an upper
class man carried), the "rating" de-
manded, "Midshipman, do you want
to fight9" "That's what I am look
ing for.'' The fight was arranged
and the "plebe" whipped his man,
says the New York Herald. Then an
other youngster was supplied, and he
went the way Of the first, and so on
until half dozen had been discomfi-
ted. Sometimes several fights would
follow in succession, when the "plebe ,
would say: "Gentlemen, 1 am tired
now. I'll see you again another day."
The academy authorities found out
what was in progress and sent for
the "plebe" and then, before Off
cial authority, he announced, "I can
whip the whole Glass; It turned out
that the "plebe' had been prize
fighter before entering the academy.
