JAPAN WILL
ACT At ONCE
Realizes Acuteness
of Emigration
Question
ADMITS DANGERS OF DELAY
Rather Than Disturb Peace
1t Would Stop Influx
Altogether.

Toxic, Nov 20.-While there has
been no further action taken in connec-
ton with emigration of Japanese to
Canada and the United States, the IN.
dications point to the conclusion that
Japan Is probably ready to admit That
the arguments presented by Unit
ed States Ambassador O'Brien, require
immediate attention.
There Is every reason to expect that
after the arrival of Baron Ishii, chief
of the Bureau of Commerce of the
foreign office, who has been sent to
America as a special commissioner to
inquire into the matter, the Japanese
government will undertake the self
imposed task of limiting emigration
within the bounds desired by the
United States and Canada.
Prompt Action Imperative.
The Canadian Commissioner of La
Dor Lord Lemieux, who Is here active
lly investigating the subject, has made
no formal proposal, but it is under
stood that he has plainly indicated
THAT the prompt curtailment of the
number of Immigrants is necessary
lif Japan is sincerely desirous of as
sisting her ally in order to avoid a
serious complication with the British
colony.
A recent editorial in the Jill which
lis sometimes inspired by the Japanese
foreign office. says that presumably
|Lemieux comes to Japan asking for
Limitation of the emigration to Can
Iada. The editorial continues:
| A Very Suggestive Editorial.
| "We naturally are peace loving
nation and If the emigration of Lspan
iese into Canada endangers the public
ipeace we will not hesitate to absolute
lily forbid emigration to that country
The Japanese government Is trying t
!, limit the emigration according to law
, land we hope the Canadian govern
|ment will generously assist us II
reaching a solution of the problem
Trace hatred is discreditable to Cana
Ida. We believe the Japanese immi
grants would promote the welfare o
Canada by developing it's resources
lbut If peace is to be disturbed 1t il
|better to altogether prevent our pee
pie from emigrating."

OUTLOOK DARK FOR
ACCUSED BANKER
United States Making Strong Case
Against John r. Walsh of
Chicago.

Chicago, Nov. 20.-Approximately
$2,000000, which it Is claimed by the
federal prosecutors had been trans.
ferred by John r. Walsh from the
vaults of the Chicago National Bank
to the Golfers of his several enter
prises, had been traced by means Of
entries in the books of the institution
when National Bank Examiner K. P.
Moxey stepped down from the witness
stand at the adjournment Of the
Walsh trial yesterday. Mr.. Moxey oc-
.cupied the stand throughout the morn
ing and afternoon sessions of court
and, all told, identified eighteen en-
tries which 1t is claimed by the prose
cution are proof positive of misappli
cation of funds as charged. The ag'
gregate amounts testified to were
81 100000. A similar amount was
traced in like manner Monday.
AS on Monday the bank examiner
was not allowed to allege any connec
ton between the various sums shown
in the books. Such testimony was
ruled by Judge Anderson to amount to
conclusion on the part OF the VII
ness and the prosecution was confined
to introducing entries which showed
first, that loans had been made on Sc
curities of the Walsh corporations
then that amounts, often precisely tht
same and at all other times approx
mately those secured on the loans, ha'
been paid into the personal accoun
of Walsh on the day the loans wer'
made and these amounts had oeel
paid out on the Walsh account on I'M
same day, and finally that the Waisl
corporations had received on tnos
DAYS amounts, the total OF wnlch wa
about the same as the amount origin
ally loaned. The process necessitate'
the Identification of entries IN any
where from twelve to twenty BOOKS.
