JAPAN PRESSES CHINA

China has claims upon Japan
financial claims-growing out of the
late war. We are pressing Japan for
this money Japan has set up the
claim that China violated neutrality
during the war. We are willing to
have the question settled by The Hague
tribunal, and have proposed to Japan
that this course be pursued. Has Japan
agreed to do so? Not at all. She has
failed to give US any satisfaction. She
seems to be afraid to have her case
passed upon by an unprejudiced trib-
unaL 1 am told that General Kurokf
while he was in the United States, took
occasion to hint that Japan would be
pleased if the United States would use
it's influence with China to desist from
pressing the invitation TO refer her
claim to The Hague tribunal. I hope
the United States will not take sides
in the matter"
The statement of this distinguished
Chinese that no exclusion treaty would
be agreed to by his governme is
strong proof of the new feeling awak-
ened in China. At the expiration of
the old treaty-which, by the way, was
denounced by China-it was confidently
expected by the United States govern
ment that a new exclusion treaty could
be obtained. But no such treaty has
ever seen the light, and Chinese labor
ers are now excluded from the United
States by domestic law without the
consent Of China.
If China, without an army and navy
refuses to agree to the exclusion of
her laborers, will Japan make an ex-
clusion treaty with the United States?
The chances seem to be against such
action. If the Japanese are to be ex-
cluded, such exclusion will be probably
accomplished by congress and not by
the treaty making power. It would
not be wide of the mark, probably, to
assert that the state department had
already abandoned any idea of negoti-
ating an exclusion treaty with Japan.

point-and this public sentiment is al
work on the rulers. 1t insists that
there shall be a more vigorous national
policy. 1t objects to the making OF
treaties by the powers dealing with
Chinese affairs. in which it has no
voice. 1t demands the creation of an
army and navy on modern lines 1t dis
covers new feeling of self-respect
based partly on appreciation of inherent
strength.
The Chinese are getting tired of the
continual talk of their national and in
dividual inferiority to the Japanese
There is the best of authority for this
statement The Chinese of the higher
classes are convinced that the time
is about ripe for the remodeling of
their government after occidental mod
els, and they believe that when this
is accomplished China will be incom-
parably ahead of Japan in military and
financial strength.
CHINESE VIEWS CHANGED
Chinese diplomat of worldwide
renown discussed these subjects with
me the other day. He said:
During the last Is years China has
developed public sentiment. When it
was proposed to Ii Hung Chang that
he should agree TO an exclusion treaty
with the United States he said: All
Flgnt- Inc people to be excluded from
America are only the Cantonese and
persons from those provinces down
that way. What do we care whether
they are excluded or not Let them
object, if they want to. 1t makes no
difference. But there is a big differ
ence now. China will not agree now
to an exclusion treaty with the United
States. Public sentiment will not per-
nit il.
We are going in for a vigorous ma
tional policy in China. The northern
provinces, including Manchuria, are to
be developed, and military forces will
be stationed there to preserve order.
The Chinese army is rapidly developing
into disciplined and reliable force
and the navy is gradually evolving into
a respectable weapon. The chief task
before US is to recognize the admins
trative machinery of the government
China has been willing for the last
few years to take lessons from Japan
in certain things. But the period of
tutelage is drawing to a close. The
japanese do not exercise a preponder-
ating influence at Peking, and it is not
intended that they shall The fact is
that we are tired of having it reiter-
ated in Europe and America that China
and Chinese are inferior to Japan and
the japanese. 1t is not true.

CONFLICT MAY COME

1t is this course which, it is believed,
may lead TO Misunderstanding and pos
sible friction between japan and the
United States. If this government could
enter into secret treaties 1t might make
a dicker with Japan, as other govern
ments are supposed to have done,
whereby Chinese trade would be as free
to Americans as to Japanese. But as
matters stand the United States is at
the mercy of japan. commercially. in
the orient. When the pinch comes it
may be found that the Pacific ocean is
not big enough to peacefully harbor
two such rivals, in spite of Ambassador
Aokfs assertion that there is room
enough for both.
The awakening of China is another
factor in the orie4tal equation that is
not overlooked by this government.
China has reached the point where there
is public sentiment-the victims of
the late boycott can testify on that

The Topeka Champions celebrated
their home coming yesterday by drop
ping a game to Webb City. The game
was played on a field of mud and slush
where anything like fast playing was
impossible. The game was won through
the ability Of Lawrence Milton to keep
the Champs from getting hits when
they were needed and usually chose to
retire the team when several men were
occupying placs on the bases. Mr. Mil

his delivery. 1t was a fine pitchers
battle up until the eighth inning with
the odds favoring Allison. In this round
a hit was needed and Allison was taken
out SO that Halla could bat in his place.
Halla secured a bunt hit, allowing To-

Jones was sent. in to finish the game.
Jones was evidently not warmed up
good in the eighth inning as two Texas
leaguers were secured together with a
clean single to left by Milton.
The Ugly Ducklings were the first to
cross the plate. Cheek, the first batter
up, secured a double down the left field

COOLEST SPRING ON RECORD.
The Weather Bureau Reviews Condi.
lions of Past Two Months.

Washington, June 1.-The weather
bureau announces that all records
were broken by the low mean temper
ature throughout the country during
the last two months. and makes this
forecast:
Temperatures will continue COM
paratively low Saturday and Sunday
over the eastern part of the country,
and will change only little in the ex-
IRENE west. Over the central portions
it will be warmer by Sunday"
Following is the official report of
the bureau regarding the remarkably
cool weather of the last two months:
1.-THE month just ended was remark
able as being the second successive
month of abnormally low temperature
over the middle and northern districts
east of the Rocky mountains. except
along the immediate Atlantic coast.
The record. combined with that of
April, furnished a mean temperature
lower by several degrees than the
combined mean of the same two
months of any previous year of which
there is record.

prevailed in greater or less degree
from the middle Atlantic states and
the great corn and wheat districts,
and were especially marked in the up
per Mississippi valley. In the vicinity

ed and Ragan was caught between the
bases. Allison flew out to Dalrymple.
1!othing noteworthy happened until
the seventh when the locals got a man
across. Runkel was the starter IT the
proceedings when he doubled 20 right
field. Olson. sacrificed him to third and
Henry walked. A hit was needed for a
run and Halla went to bat for Allison.
Halla hunted and beat it out, Runkel
scoring on the play. Abbott was safe
on ffelder's choice which caught Halla
on second. Hurlburt walked and Davis
hit to third, Abbott being forced out.
Jones then took an imposing position
on the mountain in the center of the
field. Gray was the first man to face
him and the little right fielder secured
a Texas Lacquer which Landreth with a
slightly accelerated impetus to his To-
comotion might have gathered in. Jones
emphasized the fact that he wished to
keep Gray safe at first by repeated
throws to Abbott. However, one of the
throws went bad and Gray went to
second. Gill hunted and Jones tried TO
cut Gray off at third but failed. Milton
singled, scoring Gray. Cheek went out
but Olson was lucky and the ball bound
ed out into left field outside of Lam
dreth's reach. This entitled Gill to cross
the plate. Painter AMI Shaner then
obIigingIy went out. In the ninth Jones
came back strong and nothing more
happened for the visitors. A feeble at
tempt at a garrison finish was the pro-
gramme of the locals in the ninth but
olson was cut out at the plate on close
decision and the game was lost.
Michaelangelo Jacobs made his debut
in Topeka as an umpire and he is about
as good as there has been in the city
What he don't know about the game

game and has a voice that can be dis

inning he did not take we'll with the
language with which Dalrymple ad-
dressed him and the Webb City veteran
stuck rather close to the bench for the
remainder of the game. Shaner walked
out to center field.

hitting are coming up stronger. Olson,
