FAvoRs LIMITED ARMAMENTS.
Japan Will Support America and
Britain at The Hague.

Victoria, B. c., May 2s.-Japanese
received by the steamship
Empress of India from Yokohama
contain an interview with Count
Okuma, one of Japan S most promi-
nent statesmen, regarding The Hague
peace conference. in which he says:
"If Great Britain introduces an arm
ament restriction proposal for debate,
Japan will support it, and possibly
also the United States. 1t would be
difficult to speculate. though, on the
probable attitude of European powers
as to the proposal. With regard to
the regulations of military and naval
battles, rights and duties of neutrals,
regulation of wireless telegraphy and
contrabrand of war, Japan and Russia
had a claim to advance their views, in
view of their practical experience. AS
far as Japan is concerned, the confer
ence affords the best opportunity of
promoting her position in interna-
tional politics"
Advices were received of large ad-
ditions to the Nippon Yusen kaisha
fleet Larger and fasters steamers are
to replace some vessels in the Amerl-
can service. The Japanese govern
ment just turned over to the company
II large prize steamers captured dur
ing the war, which will be used as
freighters.

SCOUT CRUISER LAUNCHED.
Swift New Vessel Is Expected to
Steam "a Miles an Hour.

Quincy. Mass. May 31.-The scout
cruiser Birmingham, one of the laest
types of fast warships, was launched
today. Miss Mary Campbell, of
Birmingham, Ala, broke bottle of
champagne upon the steel prov as
the bio vessel started down the ways.
The Birmingham, which is expect
ed to make "a knots an hour, is de-
parture in shipbuilding in the Ameri-
can Navy. The Birmingham is 42o
feet over all, 46 feet 8 inches in
breadth, and has a draught of 10 feet.
The coal capacity is 1850 tons. and
her steaming at full speed is estimated
at 1875, or $3.50 miles, at 10 miles
an hour 1t is estimated that she
will develop 10000 horse power.
The hull is built of steel through
out, with two longitudinal bulkheads
and five decks, the main and berth
decks being continued from stem to
stern. Her battery will consists of
two five-inch and six three-inch rapid
fire guns, and two 21-inch submerged
torpedo guns. Her motive power
will be derived from vertical engines
with four cylinders, triple-expansion
type, and she will have the usual twin
screws

KNOCK THEM IN THE HEAD.
Governor Of CoIorado..Says Men With
out Ambition Are Worthless.

Denver, Colo, May 29-The idle
rich were given scoring by Governor
Henry A. Buchtel in his Memorial
Day address to veterans of the Civil
War last night. The chief executive
of the state agreed with President
Roosevelt, whom he quoted to the eff
feet that the idle rich should be
knocked in the head. These strong
words caused the veterans to sit up
and take notice.
Mr.. Buchtel's subject was "The
Character OF Roosevelt" The church
was crowded with veterans. The at
tack on the rich made by the gov
ernor for the moment made the veter-
ans turn their thoughts from the day
to the conditions of the present time.
The reference to death for the idle
rich" was made in a story of a
wealthy student. His professor asked
him what he intended to do when he
finished college. The young man re-
Piled:
do you know, professor, there does
not appear to be anything in the
world quite worth while"
when President Roosevelt was
told this" the governor continued
"he arose, pounded his fist on the
table and said:
Professor, do you know that fell
low ought to be knocked in the
head
"And he ought to have knocked him
in the head. Such people, without
ambition and without purpose, are
valueless to the country, and ought
to be knocked in the head"

TAKE UP JAPAN'S KICK.
San Franciso Business Houses At
tacked-Federal Inquiry Orderee.

Washington, May p Informa-
ton that Japanese have been sub
jected to ill-treatment and indigni-
ties in San Francisco came to the
State Department today from two
sources, and Secretary Root has
taken measures for the protection OF
the Japanese through two channels
Ambassador Wright at Toxic
cabled that a Japanese restaurant
and a Japanese bathhouse in San
Francisco had been demolished by a
mob, and Viscount Aoki, the Japan
ese Ambassador here, laid before Mr..
Root dispatches from the Japanese
Consul-General at San Francisco de-
failing the same occurrence.
Mr.. Root at once made request on
Attorney Bonaparte, that
the United States District Attorney
in San Francisco be directed to make
an immediate investigation. Mr..
Bonaparte thereupon telegraphed
both the United States District At
torney and the United States Mar
shall at San Francisco to forward re-
ports by telegraph.

HAPPENINGS GATHERED IN AND
AROUND WASHINGTON, D. 6.
WANTS NO WAR.
Mexico Angry With Guatemala but Not
Dispose to Fight.

Washington, June l.. Concerning
sensational reports about expecta-
tions of war between Mexico and
Guatemala, Ambassador Creel, Of
Mexico, said today to the Associated
Press:
There is nothing pending and no
reason for any fear of war between
the two countries. The assassination
of ex-President Barillas by Guate-
malan developed in Mexico feeling
of INDICATION and strong protest by
public opinion against such crimi-
nal action, more SO when it was
known that General Lima, from
Guatemala, was supposed to be impli-
|cated. Mexico asked for the extra
dition of General Lima, not as COM
pulsory under the treaty, but offering
Guatemala the privilege that might
have been accepted. Guatemala de-
clined. and this was the end of the
conflict.
There remains in Mexico a feel
ing of grievance and condemnation
in public sentiment, but not a spirit
.of war. The troops that have been
located on the frontier of Mexico and
Guatemala are there for the purpose
'of keeping order and to give protec-
ton to the people of all nationalities.

Abandoned-Expect Light Summer
Travel-One Read Alone Reduces
Force $4,000.

Chicago, May 2s.-Railroad man
ayers here estimate that by the end
of the first week in June the railroads
of the country will have discharged
between $4,000 and 100000 men now
employed. Some estimates put the
number much higher. This does
not take into account the large
number of laborers and Others dis
missed because of abandoned exten-
sions and other Improvements. Or
ders were recently issued for the
strictest economy and the reduction
of forces to the lowest possible point.
The New York Central is to reduce
many Of its pay-rolls fully one-third.
If the order is carried out literally in
all departments, it would mean the
discharge of $4,000 employees on this
system alone.
Railway managers say they rather
welcome the opportunity to weed out
hundreds of incompetent, forced
upon them during the rush season, and
to whom, it is claimed, many wrecks
and destruction of life and property
can be traced. Aside from this, the
roads expect to save few millions IN
hc is light. The heaviest cuts will
be in the operating departments, in
the shops and among clerks.
Many of the employees will be taken
back again when business becomes
heavy again, but a strong effort will
be made to shut out permanently the
incompetents and undesirables. The
discharged tracklayers and Others who
were working on extensions and like
improvements will not be re-employed
until the financial market is more
promising and until the new legisla-
ton has been given thorough trial
by the roads.
The application of the 2-cent pas
senger rate will be especially felt by
Western roads, and reductions in
freight rates and the demands of labor
unions, which amount to millions, will
affect all roads and call for rigid econ
omy and general slowing up until
the way seems clear.
Many states, also, have practically
doubled the taxes imposed upon rail-
roads, and the general result requires
retrenchment in every direction pos
| sible.
