JAP AMBASSADORS BREAK.

Aok Anglers Roosevelt by Demanding
indemnity for Frisco Affair.
A dispatch to the Record-Hsrald,
Chicago, from Washington, says:
Viscourt Aoki, the Japanese ambas-
sador, has incurred President Roose-
velt's strong displeasure because Of
his lack of delicacy and discretion in
conducting the negotiations relating to
the San Francisco attacks on Japan
ese. Aoki's recall is due to three
things:
Being out of favor with President
Roosevelt. Marrying German woman
(Which made him unpopular in his
own country and not getting full so
cial recognition from the members OF
the diplomatic corps in Washington.
Before the president left for Oyster
Bay the Japanese ambassador talked
with him about the attacks on Japan.
ese in California and about the de-
struction of their property. Aoki dip
lomatically hinted that the United
States should pay indemnity to japan
for the San Francisco mob outrages.
President Roosevelt remained 81
lent, and mistaking this silence for
acquiescence in the suggestion, the
ambassador made a definite propos1.
ton that the United States pay an
indemnity.
There was no mistaking the presi-
dents attitude then. He forcibly ex.
pressed disapproval Of the proposition
and dismissed the ambassador with
advice to conduct his negotiations in
future with the state department.
Secretary Root was informed Of the
incident and Immediately changed his
demeanor toward the Japanese am.

STIRS RACE PREJUDICE.
Address of Senator Foraker at Conn
nnencement Exercises Of Negro
University is Deeply Resented.

A Washington special says: From a
republican standpoint, a bold political
prediction has been made upon SEN.
ator Foraker's recent commencement
address at WiIberforce university,
Ohio's' leading co!ored educational in
Stitution, in which he severely arraign-
ed the president and Secrstary Taft
for their course in the Brownsville
Texas, incident. and urged the negroes,
all over the country to stand up.
squarely for their rights and array
themselves determinedly against the
grandfather clause incorporated In
several southern states constitutions.
It has been stated by man who spoke
authoritatively that member Of the
cabinet, after reading Foraker's
speech, ventured this prediction:
"If Foraker makes many more such
speeches there will be only one political
party in the north and the name Of
it will be the white mans party"
From another source, it was learn
ed that Secretary Taft is greatly cha
grined at Senator Foraker for the
manner and the tone in which he dis
cussed the action of the president Ia
discharging three negro companies Of
the twenty.ffth infantry, and it Isl
only by the strongest persuasion OF.
close personal friends that he Is re-
strained from answering the fiery For
aker without delay. In fact, Secretary
Taft may yet decide to reply to For.
aker while the latter's Wilberforee:
speech is still fresh in the public
mind and before his own overwrought
feelings are calmed by lapse Of time.
Not only does Secretary Taft feel that
he is called upon to make a per-
sonal defense, but as member Of the
administration which has been unpro-
vokedly attacked he owes at least an
earnest effort at resistance.

WHO WANTS A RAILROAD?

Efforts Being Made to Dispose Of the
Central of Georgia Holdings.
The undoubted purpose Of the state
of Georgia to regulate and control the
great railroad corporations, through
legislative enactments and executive
administration, accounts for negotia-
tions now under way in New York for
the sale of the Central. of Georgia rail-
road. and its auxiliary ocean steam
ship lines. There has developed an
undisputed willingness on the part Of
certain interests to dispose of at, least
part of their Central Of Georgia
holdings.

WOMEN WERE TARGETS
In Cory Conflict Over Wine Question
Between the Troops and PopuIace
in the South of France.

OWnS 10 the UdCt IaaI In6 ceuSoE'
ship is in operation in the south OF
France, only brief items of news from
the scenes of the wine-growers dem.
onstrations had reached Paris up to
early Thursday afternoon. These, how
ever. showed that the conflicts which
have taken place between the troops
and MODS were more sanguinary than
at first supposed.
At Narbonne three persons were
killed and fully a hundred soldiers
and civilians, including a score OF
women, are said to have been wound
ed, several Of them sustaining fatal in
juries. The troops, who were to fire
in the air, shot straight at the mob.
A whole army corps has been put
in motion to deal with the rebeliious
wine-growers, but the government
claims that the forces now are so dis
tributed as to isolate different sections
and render it practically impossible
to effect a general mobilization Of the
dissatisfied people.
It was announced that the state ban
quet, which was to have been given
in Paris Thursday evening in honor
the king of Siam, had been coupter-
manded, owing to the bloodshed in the
south of France.
The presidents decision created
some excitement, as it emphasized the
gravity of the situation.
The newspapers report an attempt
to burn the subprefecture at Mar
bonne. A mob piled straw at the gates
and set fire to it. Gendarmes fired
from the upper stories and the at
tackers fed.
1t is also announced that there has
been further shooting in the streets
of .Narbonne and many persons have
been wounded.
Narbonne is described as presenting
a remarkable spectacle after the
nights battle. The paving stones used
in the assault on the troops cucumber
the streets, the walls are marked with
bullets, windows are broken and the
cafes are wrecked, the furniture hav.
ing been used for building baricades.
Broken bottles, used as clubs, liter
the strets everywhere. Many of the
wounded are suffering from shot
wounds, and saber gashes or from
fractured skulls or limbs.
There are no signs Of danger abat.
ing, but the overpowering military
keeps the people from assembling In
large numbers.
Many wine-growers, continue to pour
into Narbonne from the country dis
tricts, and threaten to set fire to the
hotels occupied by the army officers.

day morning, after tumultuous scene
during which Premier Clemenceau
was addressed in insulting terms, al
