AOKI ASKED TO
BE CALLED
HOME
Japan Minister'S Return No
Reflection on His
Course Here.

TOXIC, Dec. 4-The recall of
Viscount Aoki, Japanese Ambassador
at Washington, is the result of his own
expression of a desire to resign, and no
official announcement is expected until
after his arrival in Toxic. 1t is now
regarded as a foregone conclusion that
Ambassador Aoki will not return to
Washington. The question of his prob
able successor. in the event his resig-
nation is accepted, has been long under
discussion.
The names mentioned in this connec-
ton include Baron Kaneko, formerly
special envoy to the United States;
Baron Chinda, vice-minister of the for
eign office, and M. Takahira, at present
Japanese Ambassador to Italy and
formerly minister of Japan at Wash
ington. 1t is now understood that NJ.
Takahira Is first choice. Neither Baron
Chinda nor Baron Kaneko can be
spared, so Takahira will undoubtedly
be appointed if he is acceptable at
Washington.
The Associated Press is assured by
the highest authority in the foreign
office that the recall of Viscount Aoki
IL t1OI ttilGitoCa 90 q l1Ai[1AiOi 0POiA AtAN'
course, but a possible change at WASH
ington has long been imminent. Neither
should the present action be construed
to denote the slightest change in the
friendly attitude of the japanese Gov
eminent towards America on the inn
migration question.
In the course of an interview today
this official said: "It is quite possible
that Viscount Aoki may not return to
Washington. In the event of his resig-
nation, the government of Japan will
only appoint to the position a person
well known in America, whom the
President knows II likes, and who
has the confidence of the American
people. The Japanese Government is
making every effort to meet the wishes
of the President and the people of
America on the immigrant question and
in appointing a foreign minister real
ICES the importance of having a repre-
sentative in Washington who is not
only acceptable and friendly to the
people, but Is acquainted with the pre-
vailing conditions in America"
A special dispatch from washington to
the Mainichidempo says that the American
nublic is inclined to think that the recall
OF AoKi IS que W TIE uStSi iiiiiloeloh oh @Hs
part of Foreign Minister Hayashi to pur-
sue q different policy, which will be an
tagonistic to America. Tho official above
quoted assured the Associated Press rep
resentative that such a construction was
entirely erroneous. On the contrary, the
immigration question. he said, is now
nearer a friendly solution than ever before
! Minister Hayashi is determined to exer'
else all the authority vested in the Foreign
Minister to control the emigration oil
laborers. I'VE are anxious" said this of

KICKS
HIMSELF TO
THE POLICE
Being the Tale Of Mr.. FOr-
tons Disagreeable Experi-
eBcs as a Receiver.

Finding himself unable to get out of
the building at 1913 Broad street, j.
Tracy Horton, a lawyer, kicked a large
plate glass window in the door to pieces
and gained his liberty, only to land in
the First Precinct police station, where,
after satisfying the police that he was
only acting within his rights, he was
permitted to go home.
The Truly Warner Hat Company, on
the ground floor at the above address,
had an attachment against the Edward
B. Ennis Tailoring Company, formerly
a tenant on the second floor. The
tailoring concern made application to
be adjudged bankrupt and Lawyer Hor-
ton was appointed receiver. Mr.. Hor-
ton went to the Truly Warner store
yesterday afternoon inc asked T. ].
Murtha, the manager, for the keys to
the rooms above. In the belief that he
had the first attachment against the
defunct company, and that he vas
protecting his company, Mr.. Murtha re-
fused to give up the keys. 1t is said
that the lawyer then got a carpenter
to take the door off its hinges. He
was prevented from doing so by two po-
licemen, who responded to a complaint
made by Murtha.
Lawyer Horton left and later re-
turned with an order signed by some
magistrate, whose name Murtha could
not remember. and finally took pos
session of the place. About midnight
Mr.. Horton, accompanied by William
Lockwood, secretary and treasurer Of
the Ennis Company, visited the store.
They could not find the two special po-
licemen hired to watch the place, and
while they were upstairs a policeman
came along and found the door open.
The policeman notified Murtha, who
has apartments in the Hotel Broad,
and he told his informant to wire up
the door and he would fix it in the
morning.
After the policeman had secured a
piece of wire and secured the door it
appears hat the two men in the place
tried to get out.
Finding it impossible to open the
door, Mr., Horton kicked the glass pane
out and he and Mr.. Lockwood emerged
into the open.

lions Anent Campaign Funds and
Postal Savings Banks.

enroute to his home. arrived here today
from Washington. He met his wife and
daughter, who are bound for New York,

said, as he has lecture engagements, which
will keep him occupied for some time.
Mr.. Bryan was reluctant to discuss Presi-
dent Roosevelt's message, saying that he
had not had sufficient time TO read 1t
through. He, however, commented freely
on several Of the most important points
and gave Mr.. Roosevelt credit for intro
ducing an original proposition in suggest
ing the appropriation of campaign funds by
the government.
81 hope he said, that it will be en-
acted into a law"
On important questions, Mr.. Bryan's
ideas coincide with the texture of the
message. He is strictly in accord with the
President concerning postal savings banks
and guaranteed banks deposits.

 ARE JUBILANT

Nashville, Tenn, March 26.-The tobacco growers of Tennessee, Ken lucky and Virginia are iubilant and very grateful to the Tennessee Legis- lature for passing the two tobacco association bills said President Fort. who is chief executive officer of the association.
