JAPAN'S SHIPS NOT TO
VISIT THE COAST
TRAINING SQUADRON WILL END
PROPOSED VOYAGE AT HOMO
LULU.

TOXIC, January 1.-THE Japanese
Government has decided that on ac-
count of the anti-Japanese agitation on
the Pacific Coast, the training squad
ron will not visit the Pacific Coast, but
will go as far as Honolulu only.
The continued war scare in Califor-
MIA is ridiculed here.
WASHINGTON, January 1O.-Masa-
mao Hanihira, second secretary of the
japanese Embassy tonight said that
Viscount Aoki the Japanese Ambassa-
dor to the United States has not been
officially notified of the Toxic govern
ment's decision not to allow the train
ing squadron to proceed to San Fran
cisco.
"The visit of a Japanese fleet to the
Pacific Coast at this time" said Hani-
hira might occasion a renewal Of the
controversy and, as the japanese gov
eminent is DESTROYS of maintaining the
present cordial relations with this gov
eminent it'll as been considering for
several weeks the advisability of post
poning the visit of the fleet to the Pa
cific Coast"
Members of the California delega-
ton, in discussing Japan's intention to
abandon the proposed trip of the train
ing squadron to Pacific Coast on ac-
count of the anti-Japanese agitation,
expressed the opinion that San Fran
cisco would have extended a welcome
to the fleet.
"I think" said Kahn, that I know
the people of California well enough to
say that the great mass of the popula-
ton would not do any harm to the
Mikados seamen should they visit San
Francisco. 1t may be possible that the
Japanese Consul at San Francisco, XII
saburo Uyeno, has advised the govern
ment that as a precautionary measure
it would, perhaps be advisable not to
allow the training squadron to visit the
Coast until the school controversy had
been settled. While the people of Cali
fornia are opposed to the wholesale
importation of Japanese coolies, we
respect the rights of the japanese who
are now here and the training squad
ron would certainly be as safe in the
bay of San Francisco as it would be
in a home port"

LAGNIAPPE ABOLISHED.

NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 1-Lagniappe,
one of the oldest customs distinctive
to New Orleans, was abolished today
by concerted action of the trades peo-
pie, especially grocers, at the request
of the board of health. Lagniappe is
a survival of the custom of the Span
ish settlers, who preceded the French
in Louisiana, and consists in giving
to purchasers small favors, such as
an apple or piece of candy. The le-
gend from which the name comes
says that the first lagniappe was Civ

en- by a grocer to a man with a mon
key, the lagniappe being for the ape.
The custom has taken the place &C.
cupied by trading stamps in many
cities. 1t also was used by sharp
buyers as a graft. The board of
health stopped it, because of the rot
ted edibles given to children. Many
persons regret the passing of this Gus
tom, declaring that it made children
willing to run errands.
