It has been authoritatively an- nounced that MT Aoki, the Japanese ambassador has been recalled. This will be a matter of proper regret to quite a large number of friends that the ambassador made during his short stay in Washington. His record in office here has not been particular ly brilliant on the face of it. He has not solved any very trying problems. Neither has he made any palpable mistakes. It would appear that he is the victim of home politics. Native politics are warm in Japan. The government is keeping in power chiefly by not taking the people into its confidence. It is known among officials here that Ambassador Aoki made several reports to his home gov- ernment on the several subjects of friction between the United States and Japan and that the Japanese public without being thoroughly re- cast simply because the government could not afford to promulgate any thing that sounded like a pro-Ameri- can document. Ambassador Aod's enemies took advantage of the situa- tion to accomplish his recall. Pos- sibly Baron Kaneo who Is to succeed him will manage to keep the Japan ese government supplied with polite
 fiction about the United States or if he does tell the truth he will clothe it in gentler language. The last thing that Japan wants in this country now is shirt sleeve diplomacy"

LOVING GIRLS STORY.
On Truth of Her Tale of Outrage
 Hangs Judges Life.


 HOUSTON, Va, June 26.-Between stihing sobs, with tears streaming from her bright blue eyes and while striving to hold back the tears Miss Elizabeth Loving, who has occupied the center of the stage in the trial of her father, Judge William G. Loving, for the murder of Theodore Estes, told on the witness stand here the story of her alleged ruin by the ooung man whom her parent shot dowA.
 The recital was probably the most dramatic ever heard in Virginia court of justice and rivaled the story told by Evelyn Nesbit Thaw of her ruin by Stanford White. It was the same story she said she told to her father on the morning of the tragedy and which eliminated in bis hunting down and staying the man whom she charged with perpetrating the deed.
 Estes, she said, had given her a drink of whisky from flask he had in his pocket while they were out buggy riding on the afternoon prior to the killing. After taking the drink she de clared that she Immediately began to feel dizzy and her head ''spinned around" as if she had been given some powerful drug. In this condition and despite her protests she declared that her escort drove her over an unfre- quented road and despite her screams outraged her.
 Exhausted by the struggle and her mental faculties rendered incapable from the stimulant, the witness de- clared that she recalled nothing more until she regained her senses while in bed late that night at the home of County Clerk E. L. Kidd.
 Whether the story told by the nine teen-year-old girl can be torn to pieces and disproved by the prosecution re- mains to be seen. and on the disprov- ing of this story hangs the fate of the Attendant

The government of France has just appointed pr Harvey Wiley, chief chemist and food expert of the de- partment of agriculture on the board of inquiry into the wine rebellion in France. The wine rebellion seems like almost farcical proposition from this side of the water, but to the French it is very serious. Dr Wiley has been appointed on the board of inquiry principally because he is a member of the French Pure Food so- ciety and has made a special study of French wines for export to the United States. His inquiries have not been very favorable to the French manu- facturers, indicating that much of the falling off in the French foreign trade was due to the shameless adul- iteration of French export wines. This was the same state of affairs that was disclosed by Dr Wiley's investigation of the Scotch whiskey trade. There were stringent laws at home for the making of pure whiskey, but the manufacturers were allowed to put up anything they wanted for selling to the United States. It would ap- pear that in view of these experiences pr Wiley will not prove very help full witness for the French wine growers before the nations of the world, but at least he may be able to do something toward putting the French wine industry on better and more honest footing.

It is said that the crops of corn, cotton, tobacco, vegetable and fruits are very poor down south. But the crop of dark horses for the democratic presidential nomination is flourish ing. Culberson, Hoke Smith, John w. Daniel, John Sharp Williams. Gov ernor Folk and others are all men tioned as good presidential timber.
