GERMANS THINK ADVANTAGE
LIES WITH THE JAPANESE

Berlin, July THE conviction of
an ultimate conflict between Japan
and the United States appears to be
widespread In Germany. II Is one OF
the subjects certain to be discussed
when diplomats and naval officials
and others accustomed 20 follow In
ternatlonal politics meet. The news
papers agree that President Ro0se-
welt Is trying to satisfy the Japanese
requests. They agree also that japan
asks nothing unreasonable They
recognize that the difficulty lies In the
question Of race, the economic an
tagonlsm Of theV VcallfornIans against
the Japanese. ann the constitutional

Washington, July 7.--Acting Secre-
tary of State Adee tonight denied that
the United States government had
made any overtures or contem-
plates any negotiations, for the pur-
chase from Mexico, of a naval station
site on Magdalena bay, in Lower Call
ifornia. The government has no idea
'of making any such proposition to
Mexico, he said:
The only foundation for the re-
port" Mr.. Adee added lis the fact
that Mexico has recently consented
that the United States government
may permanently station collier in
Magdalena bay for the use of Ameri-
Ican vessels during the annual target
practice. For several years through
courtesy of the Mexican governments,
our warships have assembled at Mag
dalena bay for target practice and
there has been absolutely no change
in this arrangement further than the
fact that In the future this govern
ment will keep a collier stationed in
the bay"

Mr.. Yamaoka, who left Seattle in

an alliance between the Japanese of
the Pacific coast and the progressive
party had been perfected for the pur-
pose of bringing about the overthrow

the Limitation of immigration, which
i'm substance is as follows:
"First-That the government of the

which provides for the limitation OF

not in the future entertain such a

Second-That if the new treaty,
which is to be operated from the for
ty-fourth year Of Meiji U91D. the
government of Japan will insist on
striking out article 2. clause (de-
filming the power reserved by the con-
tracing parties to enact laws with
regard to police and immigration reg
ulations). For that purpose the gov
ernment of Japan shall take a most
vigorous attitude.
Although the negotiations for the
end are not described, we firmly be-
lieve that the government Of the
United States will fight with deter
mination TO preserve the clause.
Third-That the government of ia
pan contemplates sending represents

dents are Disseminated against.

Naval Officer Points Out Diff

This Country,
[By Morning Journal Special Leased wire.l

IBy Morning journal Special Leased Wire.l
Washington, July 7.--"There is no
such thing as an American Dread
nought, nor is any projected said a
distinguished naval officer today. He
was referring to the two great 10000
ton battleshkps, contracts for which
have Just been professionally awarded,
and which were mentioned in the
congressional debates and newspapers
as of the "Dreadnought' class. The
new ships will be called the Delaware
class for without knowing what the
second ship is to be called, the name OF
the first vessel of the Kind usually fixes
the name of the class, and Secretary
Metcalf has christened No. The
Delaware" said this officer The Of
ficer then pointed out the difference
between the English DreadnOught and
the American Delaware class going
into some details as to the plans of
the latter, which 1t is not deemed
polite by the navy department to
make public even at this late date
Generally stated, the salient points of
difference were to be found in the ar
rangement of the armament. The u
inch guns of the British ships are car
red in two turrets on the central lines
from bow to stern, and in two waist
or side turrets i'm line with the keel
The advantage of the \latter arrange
ment is the ability To bring every one
of the guns OF the primary batteries
of the ship to bear upon an opponent
on either side, while 25 per cent OF
the British fire woul& be masked under
like circumstances. There are also
numerous changes in the interior ar
rangements, and on the whole, accord
ing to this naval officer, save from
the fact that the tonnage of the two
classes are alike and turbine machin-
cry is to be used for the propellers'
power the American Delaware does
not resemble the "Brltish Dread
nought."
