VISIONS OF A WAR
UNITED STATES And JAPAN
is The LATEST RUMOR.
European Countries Are Discussing
the Probability Of It-Russla Will

ity to Make Demand for Concessions
on the Amur River.

Berlin, Dec. 1S.-The relations be
tween the United States and Japan ex-
cite great interest in government and
diplomatic circles here Emperor Will
liam discussed the question with sew
eral persons recently and is thorough.
ly informed regarding President Roose-
velt's personal views on the subject.
1t is believed that Russia's more
resolute attitude toward Japan's re-
quests for trade and colonization
rights upon the Amur river and In
Siberia and for fishery privileges up
on the adjacent Russian coasts is part
ly due to the discussion of the Cali
fornia school question between the
United States and Japan. The Russian
foreign office has been subjected to
steady pressure upon the part of jap
an to secure 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 renewal of the war
with Russia. This idea pervades the
conversations which the Russian for
eign minister, M. Iswolsky, had with
the government officials and others
whom he met mere upon the occasion
of his visit to Berlin, six weeks ago.
M. lswolsky met many prominent peo-
pie here and talked with extraordinary
freedom.
Among German military and naval
officers, the possibility of a conflict
between the United States ana Ja- az
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 aud
land campaigns which would call for
immense expeditions against natural
obstacles.
1t was known here in June that the
British admiralty had considered the
oretically the possibility of a war be-
tween Japan and the United States as
likely to occur within 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 officers
are at present making inquiries re
garding the temper of the Japanese
people and the government of Japan
