JAP WRATH MAY
PROVE DANGEROUS
INDIGNATION IN JAPAN OVER
FRISCO ouTRAeEs uNPREcE.
pENTED.
MANY DEMAND AN INDEMNITY
IRRITATED oVFa HARDNESS IN
EXPECTING SOLUTION OF
DIFFICULTY.

Toxic, June 8. - The leading papers
are silent on the question of demand
ing an indemnity for the so-called
bombaEaaing of Japanese establish
ments in San Francisco. Reparation
for the damage Inflicted and punish
ment for culprits, is expected and it is
believed that the govern .sent is taking
proper steps in the matter.
The public here is irritated at the
hardness displayed in effecting solu-
ton of the difficulty. Opinion has not
yet reached the stage of advocating an
appeal to a hostile demonstration in
any form.
Popular indignation.
1t is true, however, that popular in
dignation has reached degree never
before witnessed in the history OF Ja~
pans relations with the United States
1t is thought by influential Japanese
that the quicker the facts regarding
the negotiations now in progress here
and in Washington are published the
better it will be for all concerned, as
stage has now been reached when it
may prove dangerous to keep the peo-
pie in suspense or ignorance of what
is being done.
Japan Is In the Right.
An experienced diplomat who was a
protege to Marquis Ito and is a promi-
nent figure in national affairs, said
yesterday:
America is the last country with
which l expected complications with
Japan. Traditional friendship of the
two nations uniformly maintained by
the government at Washington, makes
me almost hesitate to believe that an
anti-Japanese sentiment exists in Un-
Gle Sans territory, though the unfor-
tunate occurrences stand unassailable
But before forming a final judgment
in the presen. instance, it is absolute
ly necessary to bear in mind that in
Ariferfca the autonomy of the various
states
Is jealousy Guarded,
and the slightest infringement or in
reference by the national authori-
ties is deeply resented. Consequently
the federal government is in a most
delicate position.
The Japanese cause in the present
instance is right throughout beyond
the shadow of doubt This is a fact
impossible to escape the enlightened
judgment of parsonage like Presi-
dent Roosevelt. l confidently expect
that justice will be meted out, and the
sooner his action in this matter is
made known the better"

cause on its final determination hinges
the question whether the railroads can
be prosecuted for violations of the
Elkins act, such violations having been
committed prior to the enactment OF
the Hepburn act in 1906, and no prose
cution having been started until after
the Hepburn act went into effect. At,
torneys for the railroad company con,
tend that the Hepburn act gives all
railroads clean bill Of health, so far
as rebates are concerned, up to the
time that act went into effect, except
as to causes which were pending in
courts of the United States at the time
the Hepburn act went into effect on
June 20, 1906.
The contention Of the government is
that the conviction of the Great North.
ern was secured on the theory that
the Hepburn act was not intended to
and does not remit offenses committed
prior to it's enactment.
