Plan Failed to Work In Japan.

London, June 1S.-The Toxic cor
respondent of the Times says that the
attempt of the progressives to make
party capital out Of the San Fran
cisco affair has proved fruitless as
the national sense is plainly opposed
to dragging a national question into
the arena Of party politics.

THE PRICE FRANCE PAID.
Access to the French Market for
Japan's Bonds Paved Way to the
Recent Agreement.

Paris, June 17.-While political con-
siderations of high order contributed
to the negotiation of the new Franco
Japanese entente, there is no longer
any doubt that the substantial quid
pro quo given by France was the
promise Of access to the French mar
ket for future Japanese loans. Japan
did not need a French guarantee for
Korea and Formosa, but a Japanese
guarantee for Indo-China was worth
a great deal to France and she was
willing to pay the price demanded.
Japan, according to the confidential
statements made by some of her high
est representatives in Europe will
need something like five billion francs
$4,000, 00O,OOO) within the next few
years to convert her present high rate
loans and to furnish the capital neces-
sary for industrial and commercial de-
velopment planned in Manchuria and
London.
1t is regarded as a big achievement
for japan, but the French govern,
ment is equally convinced that 1t is a
good bargain for France.

JAPAN NAY RECALL AOKF
A Dispatch From Toxic Reports
That Kaneko VIII Succeed Him
Antl-Amerlcan Sentiment There Has
Demanded That Their Ambas-
sador Be Relieved.

Toxic, June 1.-THE Hochi says
Monday morning that Viscount Aoki,
Japanese ambassador to America, will
probably be recalled and that he will
likely be succeeded by Baron Kaneko.
The Hochi Shimbun is the organ Of
Count Okuma, the leader Of the pro-
pressives, and therefore voices anti.
governmental opinion. The paper is
decidedly antkAmerican in a recent
editorial commented on the San Fran
cisco troubles as Worse than the
murder of q missionary in China that
resulted in the OCCUPATION Of Kiao
Chau."
A recent dispatch from Washington
said that the Japanese OF the Pacific
coast had allied themselves with pro-
gressives in Japan for the purpose of
overthrowing the government. The
preliminary step in this direction, 1t
was added. would be to induce the
Toxic government to recall Ambassa-
dor AoN and demand an apology and
perhaps an indemnity, from the
United States, for alleged acts of VIC
lence against Japanese subjects living
in San Francisco.

short the whole body was covered over

AOKYS DOWNFALL
japanese Ambassador Falls Victim
to Enemies at Home Rather
Than Conditions Here.
WAS KANEK0's AMBITION


Washington, June Estate depar
ment officials and members Of th
diplomatic corps were much interes
cd Monday In the statement in q Tt
kio newspaper, the Hochi, that tn
Japanese government probably woul
recall Viscount Aoki, the Japanes'
ambassador and is considering the ar
pointment of Baron Kaneko as hi
successor. Officials of the japanese
embassy say that the progressive
party has taken the San Francisco
disturbances as a pretext in an eff
fort to bring about the downfall Of
Viscount Aoki and In this connection
It is pointed here that Marquis Ito
has been inimical to Viscount Aoki
for many years. 1t was.stated author
itatively Monday night that "if the
Japanese government has any inten.
ton Of recalling Viscount Aok1, the
news will not be first announced to
the world through the columns Of the
Hochi," and that Ambassador Aoki
does not attach any cFedence to the
report"
Since his visit to the United States,
when the peace conference was being
conducted at Portsmouth, Baron Kan
exc, 1t is said at the embassy, has had
q great ambition to represent Japan
as ambassador at Washington. He
was graduated from Harvard univer-
sity shortly after President Roosevelt
left that institution and he enjoys the
presidents friendship.
Baron Kaneko Is not a member Of
the anti-administration party. He is
a member Of the privy council and a
loyal supporter of the Saienji minis
try and his appointment as ambassa-
dor to the United States, 1t is said
here, would not be considered as a
concession to the progressives or to
the anti-administration forces discuss
ing the proposed recall Of Ambassa-
dor Aoki, Mr.. Masuju Miyakawa, the
Japanese. lawyer and author, who,
next to the officials Of the Japanese
embassy, is perhaps the best posted
man in Washington on the domestic
politics Of Japan and with the public
men Of the empire, said:
Speaking about the careers Of the
two men, Aokl was educated in Ber-
lin, Kaneko in Harvard; Aoki was for
a long time minister FOR foreign af-
fairs, Kaneko for short time was
fjustjce and commerce and
agriculture, Aoki is identified as
ong standing diplomat, while Kaneko
has not had so much experience in
diplomatic service, Aoh does not
speak much, Kaneko is a great talker
Ind writer. Aoki is known to be con-
,ervative and Kaneko an aggressive.

Cistern Blew Up.

Mrs. James McWalters, 156 Russell
avenue north, was the victim of an
unusual accident during the recent
storm. She is at the Minneapolis city
hospital and probably will die.
During the storm Mrs. McWalters
noticed that the cistern under the
house was running over. She raised
up trap door in the kitchen floor to
Investigate. A can of gasoline which
had been in the kitchen had leaked
and the oil ran down into the cistern
and was floating on the water.
Mrs. McWalters struck a match in
order to look into the cistern. The
match burned her fingers and she
dropped it. There was an explosion
which nearly wrecked the kitchen.
The flames burst up in Mrs. Nc
Walters face and she was badly
burned about the head, shoulders and
arms.
